Office hours [all day Saturday]

[sith_happened]

Anakin had a bad feeling about today.

It hadn't been improved by listening to the radio last night.

So there he was in his office (not that he was avoiding his in-laws, but knowing the terrain was important and they could damn well come to him), banging hard on something made of metal.

He'd say that it was part of his new speeder bike.

He'd picked it entirely so he could bang on something.

The door was open.

[OOC: As is the post. Students, family, random passersby...he's an equal opportunity crankypants.]

Morning

[sith_happened]

Oh yeah. Anakin was in a brilliant mood.

Alanna was walking around, trying to find familiar faces. Or people she could use to get good gossip on her daughter. Alanna heard the banging and leaned in the jam of the door.

Anakin glanced up and blinked.

"...Alanna?"

Re: Morning

"Give or take a few decades." Alanna said dryly. "Don't worry, there's another Alanna out there right now who's a bit closer to the age you expect her to be at."

Re: Morning

[sith_happened]

Anakin smiled. "I have a nineteen year old son here. Age hardly matters to me. It's good to see any version of you."

River had given him clear instructions on which teachers to talk to, and Anakin Skywalker was appearantly not only teaching her Ethics, but also how to better control her psychic abilities.

Simon stopped in the doorway. "Professor Skywalker? My name is Simon Tam, River is my sister."

Re: Morning

Anakin stopped banging immediately and gave Simon a small smile. "She's told me much about you," he said, nodding his head. "Welcome to Fandom."

Re: Morning

[fancypantsdoc.livejournal.com]

"Thank you." Simon took that as an invitation to enter the room, throwing a curious glance at whatever it was that had made that noise. "She's told me about you, too. I'm happy to hear someone can teach her to better control her abilities." The last sentence was added quietly.

Irulan started the tour with professor Anakin. "Professor?" she called out, "may we intrude?"

The Reverend Mother stood directly behind Irulan, having allowed the Princess to guide her around the grounds. She was interesting in seeing what sort of tutor had been provided to guide Irulan's intellectual development.

Re: Morning

[sith_happened]

"It's no intrusion," Anakin said, standing up and bowing his head, a quick bob.

He knew exactly how important he was, too, after all.

"Reverend Mother," he said quietly.

Sending Han and Jaina off to spend some time together, Mara was left to her own devices.

Of course, and unfortunately, those devices had to be turned in before coming onto campus.

Finding her way to one office in particular, she stood in the doorway. "Lord Vader, you look different."

Re: Morning

[sith_happened]

Anakin's eyes narrowed.

"Mara Jade, you haven't aged well," he retorted.

Re: Morning

[jedifirstlady.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that wasn't true at all. "That was surprisingly petty. You're losing your touch."

Lunch time

[sith_happened]

Do you want to interrupt Anakin's lunch?

Really?

Afternoon

[sith_happened]

And now Anakin was banging flat all of the bumps he'd banged into it during the morning.

This was a terrific use of time.

And then one of those random passerbys just happens to pass by.

"Hi," said the girl. "I'm Layla Miller. I know stuff."

Re: Afternoon

[sith_happened]

"Do you?" Anakin replied neutrally. "About what, precisely?"

Re: Afternoon

[iknowstuff.livejournal.com]

"You know," Layla said with a shrug. "Stuff."

After spending the morning with his padawan, Yoda decided it was time to meet this Master Anakin that Qui-Gon seemed to mention every other sentence.

He stood in the doorway and watched for a moment before asking, "Something to you did the metal do?"

Re: Afternoon

[sith_happened]

Anakin's jaw dropped.

Which was lucky, since it stopped him from rattling off a series of curses.

I've got a bad feeling about this...

"It came to me far too bent to be useful for the purpose I had in mind. I'm adjusting it," he said. He arced up an eyebrow. "Much like the Temple's work on some Padawans. Greetings, Master Yoda."

Re: Afternoon

[900yearsold.livejournal.com]

Yoda's mouth quirked up into a smile. "Most famous beginning to feel I am. Know my name so many people do."

Rory took a little time out of her afternoon of studying to make a phone call.

Re: Afternoon

[sith_happened]

Anakin picked up the phone with a tired sigh. "I miss you."

Re: Afternoon

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Uh oh. That bad already?" Rory asked, wincing.
