Office hours [Tuesday, October 3, all day]

[sith_happened]

Vader was working on his lesson plan for the week.

It wasn't going well, as was obvious by the periodic shattering of cheap Ikea vases against the wall.

A Zen garden sitting carefully in the corner of his desk remained untouched, though.

Strange.

Jack winced at the sound of something breaking, then stood in the doorway, waiting to be noticed.

[sith_happened]

"Yes, Mr. Harkness?" Vader snapped.

Jack dug the pass out of his pocket and held it out. "I'm not going to be in class on Thursday. Thought I should let you know."

[sith_happened]

Vader read the pass, then inclined his head. "You were...courteous to let me know ahead of time, Mister Harkness."

Jack was taken aback. "Umm, yeah," he said slowly. "I didn't want to just not be there. I'll get the work off someone when I get back."

Blair was balancing his bookbag, notebooks and several pens in his non-casted arm so he just called out over the sound of a breaking vase. "Um...hello?"

[sith_happened]

Vader glanced up. "Mister Sandburg."

"Hi, man!" Blair bounced into the office and smiled. "I'm here to interview you for the paper. Do you have time to answer some questions?"

Vader stared at him for a long moment, the silence broken only by the hissing of his respirator.

"Very well," he intoned. "What do you wish to know?"

Carrying a bag, Dean knocked on Vader's door, eyebrows rising as he head the sound of glass or pottery breaking inside.

[sith_happened]

"Enter!"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Wow. Authoratative voice much? Dean put on a grin and went into the office. "Hi. You don't know me, but you room with my Dad. I'm Dean Winchester."

[sith_happened]

"I know," Vader intoned.

He did enjoy working the creepy Sith Lord angle.

"I have to say," Schrodinger said, stepping out of the shadows, "that this is much better. Although I don't know about the smashed vases. Too avant-garde."

[sith_happened]

"I don't recall asking your opinion," Vader growled.

[cat-in-the-box.livejournal.com]

"That was because you didn't," Schrodinger explained. "But I've never really let a thing like that stop me."

[sith_happened]

"Such a habit will not lead to a long and happy life," Vader warned.

"Good afternoon, Lord Vader," said Rory from the doorway, another bag behind her back.

[sith_happened]

"Miss Gilmore."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"How are you?" she asked.

[sith_happened]

"Busy," Vader replied shortly, refusing to glance at the garden on his desk.

The sand had been moved into a meticulously neat pattern.

Cally decided that it couldn't hurt too much to try, even if it was possible Vader was beyond the help of hugs and cookies, being an evil planet-blower-upper.

So after her 6th period class, she stopped by his office. With a small package of Oreo cookies in hand. She knocked on the door and waited by it.

[sith_happened]

"What now?" Vader roared.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Cally eeped.

"Umm, excuse me, Mister Vader sir?" Cally said. "I came to give you some cookies. And a hug. If you want one."

[sith_happened]

"Lord Vader," Vader bellowed. "And I don't eat!"

He slammed a vase against the wall.

Happy, fun guy, wasn't he?
