Ye olde shuttle parking [Monday morning]

He wasn't even sure if she was going to be coming, but Anakin was back at the shuttle at their normal time.

You know, just in case.

He had his robe folded neatly on the ramp and had popped one of the control panels open and was keeping his hands busy as his ears listened for approaching footsteps.

"No," she deadpanned. "You?"

She worried her lip with her teeth, concentrating on taking off. "What is she doing to people, anyway?"

"She what?" Rory stared, horrified. "She's cutting people?"

Rory stared at him a long moment. "...fine," she whispered, crossing her arms around herself.

"I'm not feeling sorry for myself," she snapped. "It's not like I'm your girlfriend anymore and deserve to know. It's just that if you think that not telling me isn't sending my imagination into overdrive and making it worse, then you don't even know me."

"But something bad is happening in there," she said softly. "You wouldn't be like this if it wasn't."

Rory gave his hand a cursory glance and went back to staring at his face. "You're taking it so the students don't have to?"
