Office hours [all day]

[sith_happened]

Anakin opened his office door.

And stared.

Someone had redecorated.

Anakin stomped around the office examining streamers on the ceiling and paint on the wall, then the glitter-bestrewned Farrah Fawcett poster, and finally flounced over to sit in his chair.

With its pink boa.

He waved a hand and started up his little galaxy of stars, then picked up a pen that had been decorated with feathers--all of his pens had been decorated with feathers, what the hell?--and hoped no one visited today.

Though that didn't seem very likely.

Anakin opened his eyes and beamed at Dean. "Perfect," he said. "How are you holding up?"

Dean took inner stock before answering. "Okay, but tired," he finally said. "Not exactly muscles I've worked before."

"One more try and I'll let you off to nap away the afternoon," Anakin promised. "You've done very, very well. Now block me."

Anakin poked at a new section of Dean's mind.

Dean was tired and hadn't been quite ready so while he got the wall up in time, it stretched to the breaking point then shattered.

Anakin pulled back quickly, but not before getting an impression of pain...and Alec.

His eyes flew open.

"Are you all right?"

He meant now. Clearly he hadn't been during that memory.

Dean shuddered and covered his face with a hand that shook. He took a couple of deep breaths and nodded. "Yeah. I just..."

Anakin reached out to grip Dean's shoulder. "Take as long as you need," he said quietly.

It was another couple of minutes before Dean got himself more or less back under control. "Guess I'm not ready for the big leagues yet, huh?" he joked weakly.

Anakin gave his shoulder a firm squeeze. "You'll get there," he said firmly. "I pushed too hard."

"I wanted you to," Dean said earnestly. He shrugged a little, his composure more firmly back in place. "Kinda the way of training I'm used to."

"If you say so," Anakin said, looking unconvinced. "I don't want to break you," he continued, "and the mind is pretty fragile."

He gave Dean a smile. "Go on, get out of here. Go home and watch something pointless on television."

"I'm not that fragile," Dean said, returning Anakin's smile with something close to his usual smirk. He stood up, legs only a little shaky. "Thanks, man. We can work on this some more -- next week sometime?"

"Absolutely," Anakin said. "I'll be around."
