Same damn rocky bits [late evening]

[sith_happened]

Anakin hadn't really moved from the spot where he'd been sitting for the last two days, except to pull out his comlink after his children had left to stare at it for a good two hours, debating whether to call or not.

As the minutes ticked by, Anakin finally picked up the comlink one final time and called Rory.

[OOC: For Rory, plz. Conversation NFB, people involved totally up for grabs.]

He gave her an unconvincing smile, but his voice was steady when he told her, "I'll be fine. See you on Monday?"

She nodded, picking up Vladdie. "Take care of yourself. You're still important to some people."

Just clearly not in the way he'd been hoping for.

He nodded. "Sweet dreams, Rory," he said softly, flipping the hood of his cloak up to hide his eyes again.
