[Except maybe Anakin, on the inside, but he's not going to broadcast that where people might pick up on it. But emotionally, this feels like a twenty, so he'll refrain from picking numbers and causing her undue panic.]
It's... It's something between the two of us. Someone from our galaxy is with the newcomers. I'll tell you the details when I get there.
[This is definitely something he wants to discuss face-to-face anyway, so he moves at top speed, sound just a bit out of breath as he speaks over the crystal. Before he can say anything else, he's at the front door, and he's forced to slow down as he steps inside. Running was a nice distraction, but as soon as he sees Padmé, the flood of feelings come rushing back. The hug is the one thing that helps him rein himself in, and he holds her as tight as he can without hurting her to get there. If she's watching, she might notice the nearest of his emotion flowers growing small new buds, only for them to wither before they blossom.
There's no holding it all back now. Without any preamble, he just blurts out the first thing that comes to mind.]
I saw Leia. Our Leia. She's in Verens.
[He doesn't know if she's run across their daughter yet or not, but if she hasn't, that seems enough of a bomb to start this off with. He doesn't want to overdo it right away, even if it's a struggle not to ramble and rant about the whole thing at once.]
