Office hours [all day]

[sith_happened]

Rinoa hadn't been in the combined class with Sex Ed yesterday, which worried Anakin after seeing how exhausted she'd been last week. Adding that to his concern about Leia, the unbroken silence from Luke's corner of the galaxy, and something bordering on despair about Katniss's situation, and you had a very quiet Anakin in his office today fiddling with a toy for Juliet to play with in an effort to keep himself busy.

The door was open, especially for anyone with good news to share.

"Good news" was hardly an apt descriptor for what Katniss had brought with her, as she tapped on the door, a disc in hand. "Haymitch sent me the footage."

Anakin waved her inside. "That was prompt of him," he said.

"He moves quickly when it's important," she said with a nod. "These are my Games, that I brought. I need to review everything else he sent me."

"Do you want to do that alone?" Anakin asked. He could think of few things more depressing than watching twenty something years of children dying.

"I have to, at least partly," she said, shrugging a little. "Wesley seems to want to watch them, too. I...did you?"

"It might be useful to learn various tactics that the Gamekeepers have used over the years," Anakin admitted, "as well as what other champions have done to stay alive."

"The Gamemakers aren't likely to use something especially cruel twice," she said, frowning a little. "Makes for bad television."

Anakin nodded. "It must be terrible for them to have the commentators complain that their move was so ten years ago."

The sarcasm was strong with this one.
