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.

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.

Against his better judgment, Anakin answered the door.

And sighed.

"Hello, Rory."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory burst out laughing.

[sith_happened]

Anakin sulked.

Rory took his picture.

"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?"

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Wrong twin," Luke corrected cheerfully.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Lukey! Why do you look like your sister? What happened to her hair?" Rory asked just as cheerfully. She eyed Anakin. "Can I maybe come in? It's wet out here."

Anakin waved her towards the sofa with an eyeroll. "That child of mine nearly gave me a heart attack," he said quietly. "But not because I'm old."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"'Cause he looks like that other child of yours?" she asked with a little smirk as she passed by. "'Course, Leia usually knows what to do with herself. I wonder what's happening to all of you."

"I hope it changes back soon," Anakin muttered. "Switching bodies this many times in a month has to be bad."

"I wonder if I'll be a boy," Rory pondered, going to sit with Luke.

[sith_happened]

"Ronald didn't count?" Anakin asked, batting his lashes.

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Ronald?" Luke repeated.

"I may have dressed up as a boy once or twice," Rory said, blushing. But she narrowed her eyes. "But I didn't...ahem...acquire any anatomical changes."

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"More than I needed to know!" Luke squeaked. "And mine are my sister's. I got dressed with my eyes closed."

You could kind of tell.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"It shows," she said dryly. "Sweetie, what did you do to your head?"

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"I don't know," Luke whined. "I tried to get it to stay up like Leia does, but it fell down so I knotted it up and Tori told me that was wrong and then Jude braided it but it fell out on the way here."

He looked very woeful.

Rory sighed. "Want me to try? I have bobby pins and elastics in my bag, I think."

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke nodded, looking ridiculously grateful. "You won't mind? It keeps falling into my eyes."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Want it in buns like Leia or just pulled back like mine or what?" Rory asked, gesturing to her own French braid. She looked over at Anakin. "Do you want me to do yours, too?"

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Like Leia, please," Luke said promptly, shifting a little closer.

[sith_happened]

Anakin wasn't as quick to respond.

He leaned awkwardly against the sofa, lost in old memories.

"She's good at braids," he finally said.
