33 Apocalypse Avenue [early evening]

[sith_happened]

Anakin was on the couch.

Sulking.

And tossing his long blond hair over his shoulders.

And sulking some more.

Like his week hadn't been weird enough--now he'd developed boobs and an interest in watching reruns of Doctor Phil's advice program.

Life sucked.

Luke had given up on making his hair look right.

Besides it was still raining, and for a Tatooine boy that was not an opportunity to miss out on, turning into a girl or no.

Which was how he ended up on his father's porch dripping wet and knocking at the door.

[sith_happened]

Anakin flipped off the television with a guilty jump, then opened the door.

And blanched.

"Leia?"

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke shook his head. "It's me, Father. Luke."

[sith_happened]

Anakin tilted his head and let out a sigh. "This town," he grumbled, then opened the door. "Come in. Can you believe this rain?"

He was making small talk about the weather.

Pitiful.

Luke smiled anyway, grateful for the effort.

"I wanted to see how you were," he said quietly. His smile turned wicked. "Clearly, you're fine."

[sith_happened]

Anakin wrinkled up his nose. "That kind of sense of humor will get you in trouble," he warned. "Trust me."

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke's eyes twinkled with amusement. "You'd know, I suppose," he said, then squelched over to sit on the sofa.

Anakin was about to respond when there was a knock at the door.

After spending her paper meeting staring at Mr. - well, Ms. Cale - Rory had gotten an idea.

If Anakin had changed genders, she had to see. So she made her way through the rain all the way down to his house, and knocked on the door, looking a bit like a drowned rat despite her best efforts.

[sith_happened]

Against his better judgment, Anakin answered the door.

And sighed.

"Hello, Rory."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory burst out laughing.

[sith_happened]

Anakin sulked.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory took his picture.

[sith_happened]

"It's not funny," Anakin whined.

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"It's totally funny," Luke corrected from his perch on the sofa. "Hi, Rory!"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory looked over Anakin's shoulder and blinked hard. "Leia?"

Logan returned home after Rory did and spent a few minutes in the front hallway trying not to drip all over everything and failing. Finally hanging up his coat and kicking off soggy shoes, Logan walked through the kitchen for a soda before heading into the living room.

Where there were people.

Cue blinking. "...Hi?"

[sith_happened]

Anakin waved, looking a little pissy. "We have guests," he said dryly.

[behindeyesonly.livejournal.com]

"I see," Logan said, bemused. "I'm assuming uninvited?"

[sith_happened]

"The short brunette," Anakin said, ignoring Luke's outraged squeak, "is my son, Luke. Who looks like his twin sister Leia today for reasons I'm not going to try to understand. Rory...is an old friend."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Hi, Professor Cale!" Rory said cheerfully. To Anakin, she added, "We've met."

[behindeyesonly.livejournal.com]

"She was my TA last semester," Logan agreed, smiling. "Hi Rory, glad to see you made it down here okay."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"I had to check on Anakin," she said, all innocence.

[sith_happened]

"Make fun of me, you mean," Anakin grumbled.
