Office hours [all day]

[sith_happened]

Anakin was in his office with Juliet today. He was (futiley) trying to get her to color quietly.

She was throwing Play-doh at his walls.

Anakin was reminding himself (A LOT) that mindwhammying a toddler was a Bad Idea.

Probably.

...he was getting less convinced of that as the day wore on.

"You should! I mean, they should get the whole experience." And it would be hilarious.

And slightly creepy! Which, let's face it, had stopped occurring to Anakin.

"Family portraits," Anakin said, nodding. "In matching outfits."

It could be its own category on Awkward Family Photos.

"I knew there was a reason I liked you," Jaye grinned. "Can there be stupid hats?"

[sith_happened]

"I think it would be unethical not to," Anakin declared.

"I'm so glad I came back here," Jaye said happily. "No one does this back home. It's very sad."

[sith_happened]

"It is," Anakin agreed.

Or sane. One of those.

"Okay, help me bullshit why they need to take photos other than 'because it'll be hilarious.'"

"Well of course you need a mandatory, stressful assignment for Ethics students to be able to really gauge how they would respond in the situation rather than just passing it off on their partner for a week and saying they learned a lot," she reasoned.

"Oooh, well played," he said with a grin. "I like it."

[fates_jaye]

"I've gotten good at that sort of reasoning," she said. "I should probably worry."

[sith_happened]

"Not at all," Anakin assured her. "It makes you an excellent teacher for this school."

[fates_jaye]

"That's the scariest thing I ever heard," Jaye said honestly. "...Keen."

[sith_happened]

"I miss the Tick," Anakin said, smiling fondly. "I haven't heard that word in years."

[fates_jaye]

"You know I can't look at spoons like a normal person? I just can't," she agreed.

Keep in mind that Jaye was soooo not a normal person.

[sith_happened]

"SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!" Juliet replied helpfully.

[fates_jaye]

"Oh my god, she has sidekick genes," Jaye realized.
