Office hours [all day]

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.

She raised her eyes from her feet to his eyes somewhat reluctantly.

Rory swallowed, looking down at her hand. "I just don't like it, that's all. I don't like fighting and I don't like people I care about getting hurt and I don't care if that's what war is. Doesn't mean I have to like it, even if it was decades ago for you."

"No, by all means, talk," she said, ignoring the way her body was reacting to his hand holding hers. She was going to date normal boys, and he was just a friend who was consoling her because she was being hysterical. "Just don't expect me to be all Aeryn and calm about it."

"But I've been here a year and a half," she said softly. "This should be normal to me. People getting shot, friends getting kidnapped, and so on."

"God I hope not," she murmured. "Let's hope there aren't vampires or anything, either."

Yes, she still had a few issues from that. Funny how all of this had sort of made them resurface.

"I have my own stake," she reminded him, closing her eyes and ignoring the voice that was telling her to keep her resolve.

"I'm a big girl and don't need people defending me from things just because I'm scared of them," she said quietly. "I have to grow up about this sometime."

Rory raised her eyebrow. "And you're one to lecture on this point."

"I'm so glad you've seen fit to decide what I should experience," she said, frowning.

"I'll never learn to do anything if I always have people trying to do everything for me," she replied, frustrated more at the sudden lack of contact than anything else. "If it's not you protecting me, it's someone else, and you know what? I can shoot things now. I can use a stake. I can plot things out and I'm a pretty good strategist. I'm not a little girl who needs to be watched over. Which isn't to say I'm dumb enough to not want backup or that I'm not intensely bothered by conflict, but I'm trying to show people I'm a damn adult and no one is letting me."

"I wasn't yelling," she replied. "And honestly, are you one to talk to me about the volume of my voice? Really?"

"Then stop treating me like a baby, because I haven't had to bring it up except when I've felt like I'm being treated like some helpless little girl," she replied, crossing her arms.
