After all those years of working with 3PO and being around R2, she was completely prepared for the performance of the adorable little droid, who did seem somewhat similar to various models she'd encountered in her previous life. Nothing had been quite like this though, and she couldn't help but wonder what else had changed so starkly since she'd gone into hiding. Aside from the obvious, of course.
"Oh no, that must have been horrible," she sympathized with a sincerity borne from her lifetime of political dealings, stepping nearer to lean in and get a closer look. "I could take care of that for you, if you'd like." Turning to Poe, she added, "My home really isn't far. You could both get your bearings there before deciding how to proceed."
It was stupid to offer, she knew that full well, but where so much of her had died that day on Mustafar, this one piece lived on. She couldn't deny her need to help, to make someone else's life better as she was able. So she made the offer and prayed to the gods of far away Naboo that this choice wouldn't be the death of what little she had left.
