Anakin's office [from noon onwards]

[sith_happened]

Anakin had spent the morning over at the Trooper Station interrogating interrogating his new staff: since he'd worked with various clones before (and was uniquely aware of their more...esoteric programming), he'd spent time with each one individually, asking about their duties at the Trooper Station, their thoughts about Fandom, and what happened if he said "Implement Order 66."

Turned out, nothing, but it was worth checking.

He went over to his office at the school around lunchtime, flipped on the link to Katniss's world (a habit he'd gotten into since she'd left), and was getting ready to write down his impressions about yesterday's class when he realized that he wasn't listening to the usual noises from Panem.

He was tuned into the Reaping. District 9, it looked like. Cursing under his breath, Anakin reached into a desk drawer and began leaving handwavey messages for the list of people Katniss had left for him to talk to.

From his spot behind his desk, he reached out through the Force to close the door. Today's office hours were by invitation only.

[OOC: For those who are watching the Reaping, and NFB.]

"Yeah," Karla said, making a face, though not at Alex. "It's been a really long..." she paused, trying to remember what day it was. "...Was graduation really only two and a half weeks ago?" she asked, incredulous. "I hate May, I really do."

"Well, if it's any consolation, May's halfway done with," Alex said. "I'm sorry. So far, there's nothing to worry about; just what we knew would happen."

Those two sentences weren't exactly the same thing, but Alex could play sleight-of-hand if she had to, dammit.

"Yeah, but considering what these past two weeks have already held, I'm not looking forward to what it's been keeping in store," Karla muttered. Death, kidnapping, friends leaving, the Reaping...

"No use worrying until it happens," Alex said firmly. "Planning for contingencies is good, but tying ourselves into knots won't help anything."

Except she already knew Katniss planned to die. The question was whether she would survive long enough to ensure Peeta's success. But that wasn't something she was going to bring up without good reason.

"At least, after all this, we'll have know who her opponents are," Karla agreed, trying to stand a little straighter. This gathering didn't exactly need her acting as a further downer. "That'll be something we can use to help."
