Office hours [all day]

[sith_happened]

Anakin was surrounded by the notes he had taken about the students in Ethics class and ignoring the notes that Vader had left him.

Most of them contradicted point for point Anakin's impressions of the students anyway.

The door was open and Vivaldi was playing in the background.

After Music class, Katara knocked on the door frame.

Anakin looked over his pile of papers and smiled. "Come in, Katara!" He reached into his desk. "I have something for you."

Re: Morning

Katara grinned hugely. "Really? Truly? Are you sure it's okay?"

Re: Morning

[sith_happened]

"I'm sure it's okay," Anakin said, smiling harder. "Grab a chair."

Re: Morning

Still almost bouncing, Katara sat down. "Thank you so much."

Re: Morning

[sith_happened]

Anakin rested his chin in his hand. "You're in a good mood," he observed.

She ducked her head. "Classes are all done! And there are two weeks where I don't have to be anywhere but the post office so I can be at the beach all the time. And I really, really am thrilled that you told Molly you would give me a picture of Ursa."

"So you're staying for the summer, then," Anakin said with a smile, pushing the holo of Ursa and Trudi across the desk towards Katara. "I'm looking forward to the warm weathe myself."

Aeryn knocks on the door, looking better than she did last week. Thank god.

Re: Morning

Anakin smiled at her. "Good morning," he said.

Re: Morning

[can_be_more]

"Hi," she says, smiling back. "Glad to be free of class yet?"

Re: Morning

[sith_happened]

"Very," Anakin said, grinning. "Not that I didn't enjoy the experience, but staring at students who were convinced that I was wrong for an hour a week? Not my idea of a good time."

Re: Morning

That gets an eyebrow raise out of her. She'd imagine there was a bit of a difference between first semester and second, really. "Thought you were wrong? About what?"

Re: Morning

[sith_happened]

"There were a few who didn't find me as impressive as they found themselves," Anakin grumbled. "And I can't teach anyone who's already convinced themselves they have nothing to learn."

Somewhere Obi-Wan was laughing his incorporeal ass off.

"You're teaching teenagers," points out Aeryn, not mentioning the fact that she is one. "As long as you got them to at least hear you, they'll figure it out on their own."

Rory had made a few stops before heading to Anakin's office as usual, and she looked a bit somber when she appeared in the doorway with two cups of coffee and a small bag. "Hey."

Re: After class

[sith_happened]

"Hey," he replied, giving her a soft smile. "Were you saying goodbyes today?"

Re: After class

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Not to everyone," she said, shrugging a little. "Dean Tick is leaving."

Re: After class

[sith_happened]

Anakin visibly deflated. "Oh."

Re: After class

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Did you think I was leaving right after graduation?" she asked.

Re: After class

[sith_happened]

"I wasn't sure," Anakin said.

Or he'd been avoiding asking. Whichever.

"I figured you might want to spend time with Bucky...get used to normal again."

Escape him as fast as possible.

"I'm staying here," she said, shaking her head. "I'll be able to visit Stars Hollow a lot when I'm in New Haven."
