Office hours [all day]

After checking his office to make sure Ferus wasn't hiding in a closet or under his desk or something equally inane, Anakin flopped into his chair, consulted his notes briefly so he could remember which students he'd taught when, and waited for the first person to walk through the open into his office.

They couldn't have the coffee in his hands, by the way. Anakin needed that so he didn't tell everyone what he really thought.

[OOC: Up early so I don't forget. Off to Rennfest tomorrow, but should be back by midafternoon. SP=love!]

"I was half expecting you to be wearing the mask," Bail said calmly. He was still trying to wrap his mind around just how Anakin was here.

Bail had been expecting a reaction like that but he still flinched a little at the slam. "I was there with Yoda and Obi-Wan when Leia and her brother were born," he said. And when Padmé died went unspoken. "What I didn't figure out on my own they told me."

"I'm having a difficult time accepting that since Vader's definitely still committing atrocities at the Emperor's command," Bail said. He'd checked after Leia had told him Anakin was in Fandom. "Unless you're trying to claim it's someone else under the mask now?"

"My problem," Bail repeated. "So you aren't concerned at all that this 'different version' could one day kill Leia if he ever finds out who she is?"

He refused to refer to her as "your daughter." He was a little petty that way, too.

"I've been keeping a low profile since your former apprentice inadvertently exposed the leadership of the rebellion," Bail said. He finally sat down and leaned back in the chair, doing his best to appear so terribly casual about sitting down to chat with Vader. "Your master has a price on my head. But if you think that it's at all possible to keep Leia from involving herself, you don't know my daughter at all."

"Because you're such an expert on that," Bail said. "Or did you actually think through betraying the Jedi order and strangling your wife?"

He knew saying that could very well get him killed, but he wanted to see if Anakin had really changed like he claimed.

Bail was startled, but he refused to be intimidated by the display. "You can't undo the things you've done," he said, brushing shards of glass off his leg. "And your temper hasn't changed. If I find out that you've ever hurt Leia...."

"How do I know I can trust you?" Bail demanded. "How do I know you won't do the same thing to Leia that you did to your own wife?"

Both scenarios were equally impossible.

"What would you do if you were me?" Bail asked. "I'd have to be crazy to leave my daughter here with you." Though he had a feeling he'd be in for an epic fight if he tried to order her to come home.

"Maybe I should tell her the truth and let her decide for herself," Bail threatened, scowling when Anakin referred to Leia as his daughter.

"No, I just think maybe she should know the dangers of being close to you," Bail snapped. "She thinks you're a hero. She only knows the good press from the Clone Wars. She has no idea of how many people you've murdered." He had to bite back adding "including your wife" because he didn't want to risk getting more than glass blowing up this time.

"Are you really going to tell her?" Bail said skeptically.
