Office hours [all day]

[sith_happened]

Vader'd had a terrible week: Rory'd stopped wearing a necklace moved on forgotten about him yelled (not that this had been a shocking change of pace) and he'd thrown her into detention, the hooker over at the Sin had turned him down, he'd gotten into a fight with the ninja, and then someone had stolen his TIE fighter.

It didn't matter that it was back. It didn't even matter that he'd gotten to pretend to kill a bunch of students in detention on Saturday.

He was in a mood.

Enter at your own peril.

Jamie was in a good mood and just happened to be walking by Vader's office. He bounced in to say hello. "Hi!"

[sith_happened]

"Detention," Vader snapped, not looking up from his paperwork.

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"What did I do?" Jamie protested.

[sith_happened]

"Nothing," Vader intoned. "Sometimes life is just unfair. Learn to deal with it."

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

Jamie glared and stomped out of the room.

Wilson had decided to make a habit of it, after all...at least Vader didn't throw used bedpans at him.

This, in Wilson's book, was a definite step up.

So, quietly he left a mug of Kona pure blend and a slice of spice cake. Yes, yes, he knew about the eating thing but the smell of the spice cake really could enhance the smell of the coffee!

Or...something like that.

[sith_happened]

Vader pretended not to notice the coffee.

But the mug ended up much closer to him than it had been originally.

Rory didn't even enter today.

She just left a neatly-wrapped gift (http://www.amazon.com/Beyond-Anger-Guide-Free-Yourself/dp/1569246211/sr=8-1/qid=1161120399/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-3626414-1545535?ie=UTF8&s=books) and an unsigned note (http://pics.livejournal.com/rory__gilmore/pic/0005h9af) outside his door before hurrying on her way. She actually hoped he didn't notice her, or know who had left it.

[sith_happened]

Oooh. Something new to throw.

Vader did so.

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

"Guten tag, Herr Vader."

[sith_happened]

"He stole my ship, Schrodinger," Vader snarled.

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

"Who did?" Schrodinger asked. "Does this mean I get to hurt people?"

[sith_happened]

"Skywalker," Vader said. "I can feel it. I will deal with him myself."

Vader was just a little attached to his ship.

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

Schrodinger nodded. "Taking your ship for a joyride. Interseting. Not what I would have expected."

[sith_happened]

"It was something his father would have done," Vader said. He didn't sound at all pleased about that.

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

"And that's something we want to do direct him away from," Schrodinger said. "As his father was a Jedi, correct?"

[sith_happened]

"Not a very good Jedi," Vader said. "Encouraging him in the more reckless parts of his father's personality...could work."

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

Schrodinger nodded. "The boy seems to hero worship him. Does he know much about his father?"

[sith_happened]

Vader thought about it. "I don't know," he finally admitted. "His father was gone before he was born."

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

"Hm. I was just thinking that we might try to remove any lingering influence. I mean, if he's talking to anyone who knew him or something."

_{[[I will probably crash soon. SP? Schrodinger wants to talk about his "parent" coming for the weekend.]]}

[sith_happened]

"I have a few thoughts on that," Vader said, very obviously not sharing those thoughts.

[OOC: Absolutely!]

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

Schrodinger nodded. "Well, if the chance comes up, I'll see what I can do." He popped his neck. "There's something else I wanted to talk to you about. Are you aware that Parent's Weekend is coming up for the school?"

[sith_happened]

Vader nodded. "I am."

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

"A...' parent' of mine will be coming. Circumstances prevent Herr Major or Herr Captain from attending themselves, but Herr Doktor has found time in his schedule to come down."

[sith_happened]

"And I could meet him?" Vader asked.

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

Schrodinger nodded. "You could. I believe he would be most interested in such a thing."

[sith_happened]

Vader inclined his helmet. "I will be in my office on Saturday and Sunday."

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

Schrodinger nodded. "I shall tell him so. I'm afraid I wasn't able to advance much in the way of converting Skywalker. I was called away on a mission over the weekend."

[sith_happened]

Evil Sith Lords don't say things like "that's all right" or "I understand", but Vader didn't try to kill Schrodinger, which was kind of the same thing.

"Was it successful?" he asked.

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

"Very," Schrodinger said. "One of our highest placed plants yet. It's amazing what people will do for eternal life."

[sith_happened]

Vader thought of all of the Emperor's plans. "Indeed."

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

"Is there anything else for me, then? You said you would have something for the Major."

[sith_happened]

Vader slid a piece of paper across the desk.

"For your Major," he said.

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

Schrodinger took the piece of paper, folded it up, slid it into his pocket, and saluted. "I shall deliver it to him tonight. And inform the Doctor of your invitation."

[sith_happened]

Vader nodded. "I will see you this weekend."
