So now she had a job and classes and she dressed more like a modern twenty year-old should dress. Coming to terms with losing everything she had known had been hard, but Leia liked to think she was getting there. School was getting a little easier, even if she spent more time in the library than not. Some of her regulars at work quizzed her regularly on subjects she'd admitted to struggling with and it was adorable and she was honestly starting to get the hang of it.
Her focus now had to change to being social like 'normal' people would. There wasn't exactly a revolution to help here. No Senate to appear before. Literally her entire life was being forced to change, and while she hated it, Leia knew she could adjust as necessary. Video games seemed to be important to teenagers and young adults in this time period and many of them were similar to games back home, just different styles. So a trip to the Arcade sounded like something she needed. And honestly, she needed a break from studying.
The simulation games were interesting and probably the closest to what she already knew. Before she knew it, she found herself hunting and trapping dinosaurs, and she was laughing as she stepped out of the little booth with the highest score she'd gotten that night.
