Office hours [all day]

Darth Vader was in his office brooding.

He'd handwavily gone home to scare the Stormtroopers working on the newest Death Star. It was very close to being weapons ready--something that filled him with a sick sort of dread.

And when he came back, his meditation chamber had been destroyed because he'd spent the entire weekend thinking he was a lion (except for an equally humiliating time believing he was some kind of actor from Earth). He'd given advice to some random cub.

And now he wanted to eat duck.

His life was terribly hard, yes.

So he sat in his office with the door propped open, poking occasionally at the musical instrument Rose had given him and tried to keep his mind off of what it had felt like to feel the breeze on his face again.

"Who says I need to feel better about myself?" she asked a bit defensively. "You're not a project. You're a person who I care about who needs to wake the hell up and stop being a giant baby because you think you're stuck."

Rory picked up a coffee mug and threw it against the wall.

"Gee, that was fun," she said. "What else can I throw? I can't stop being destructive, you see. Except wait, yes I can. Simply by stopping."

"Don't call me Rory," she snapped back. "And maybe you should die if that's what stopping means."

There. She'd said it.

Ow.

"I mourned you already," she said quietly. "It's not my preferred solution by any means, but if it means the end of all of this, then yes."

"No, Anakin," she said softly. "I love you and I want you to come back. But if that isn't an option, and you refuse, I don't want you to destroy more lives."

She shrugged. "You know the situation better than I do, I guess. I just want you to make the right decision."

"You could come close," she said softly. "And Luke needs his father."

"We've got the rest of it covered," she said.

"Not precisely," she said coldly. "But he spends an awful lot of time with an eighteen year-old version of the person who could have been his mother in another lifetime. I'm more...I don't know, like a sister, though."

"It's as close as I can give him," she replied. "I'm not...old enough or smart enough or sane enough be anyone's mother. But I want the best for Luke and I'm trying to give him that. As his actual father, you could trouble yourself to do the same."

"No, you won't," she said, rolling her eyes. "But I'll pester you until you do something."

She smiled. "So, how have you been? Anything fun happen this week?"
