[Alex just blinked for a moment at the woman's obviously political job. Back home, Alex's involvement in politics basically stopped and started with feeling more than a little personally responsible for Trump being elected (look, Simon had told her that she'd sort of started the Apocalypse by playing things on her show, and while Simon could be sketchy as hell, she did trust and believe someone who believed she'd save the world. ) But she's visibly impressed by the idea that Padme is doing such good work when it comes to running the government where she was. But one thing sticks in her mind, and it falls out of her lips before passing through any sort of filter.]

Two thousand? God, how do you guys get anything done?

[Looking slightly abashed, Alex added:]

Sorry, reflex. But it seriously needs to be overwhelming at times. I don't think that I could do it, honestly.
