"Oh? Were you trying to be super-efficient as well?" Jamie asked, continuing to bounce. "Did you use lots of sugar and caffiene? And what's with all the glitter? You don't seem to be the type to be into the boykissy thing. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Oh! And if you try the stay-awake thing again? I suggest No Doz and Red Bull. It gives you extra pep."
"Something like that," Anakin said. "The efficiency, not the kissing."
He brought the glitter back to his hand. "This is an exercise in concentration. The glitter began when I was a student and because I was very tired of sand."
He stared a little penetratingly at Jamie. "And I discovered that avoiding going to sleep didn't really solve any of my problems."
"Well I plan to taper those off as I enter a new state of alertness," Jamie explained when his face suddenly scrunched up for a moment and he grabbed his head. "As for problems I do have one! OW! BRAIN FREEZE!"
Anakin flicked a soothing hand. "Once I came here as a student," he said with a smile. "You pretty much had to pull me out of the ice cream shop with a crowbar."

A brief look of indecision was then quickly replaced with a big grin and a shrug.
"Well it's a good thing I don't have any problems to solve, right?" Jamie replied.

Okay maybe he just looked astonished because he couldn't blink.
"Tell me this has been rectified. There's a whole world of frozen treats beyond the Grape Judas and Klondike bars."

If you looked really hard, you could see a flicker of amusement in his eyes.
