[sith_happened]

Anakin wasn't hiding in his office. He wasn't sulking, either. He was brooding. It was an entirely different vibe! He left the door slightly open and sat there with the lesson plan and a cup of black coffee.

Which he enjoyed. Really.

...shut up, Kanan.

[OOC: So open.]

"You're... welcome." Peridot was apparently also bad at accepting gratitude. "And I appreciate your helping me to put things into some manner of perspective."

Because stars, did she ever need it.

Anakin smiled. "I'm a teacher. My job--my life--is to help you learn."

"Even if I'm loyal to Yellow Diamond?"

Who wanted to blow up a planet not unlike Earth, and all? Because this conversation wasm't going to shake a lifetime of programmed-in loyalty, Anakin. Even if it did make her wonder if there really was a way to save the planet.

"Even then," Anakin said. "You have to choose your own path. No one can choose it for you."

"I'm never going to get used to hearing that," Peridot sighed. "But it's a nice thought. I think maybe I can live with the idea."

Unless she got broken for it first.

Anakin gave her a tiny smile. "Try it on for size. It might suit you."
