First Floor Lobby [Tuesday afternoon after workshops]

[emo_padawan]

The package he'd been waiting for from home had finally arrived. He sent a handwavy email to his flight workshop students, and then dragged his television down to the lobby and set it so a brilliantly lit planet floated in the center of the room. It then began cycling through a series of photographs of the planetHe returned to his room and came

Ask Anakin About Coruscant

Since he wasn't around answering a lot of questions in the last flight workshop...

Jude zipped into the room, spotted Anakin, made a few quick deductions, and zoomed over. "Hey, dude. Er, sir . . ."

"Yes, Jude?"

Jude didn't actually have a question - well, he had several hundred of them, but they were all dopey and things like, 'do we need our passports?' to cover the whole nervousness of going to another planet.

And not having anyone believe him.

"Uh . . . it's, uh . . . 'nother planet and stuff . . ."

Yep, not the best at the vocalisations.

Anakin nodded. "It is. You'll be spending Friday and Saturday on Coruscant, but you'll only be gone for the length of the class period in Fandom time. Weird Fandom thing," he said, shrugging. "You'll be able to understand most beings--they speak Basic, like I do--and as long as you don't stare too hard at people with more than one head, you'll do fine."

Anakin thought this would help.

Silly Anakin.

"Okay, gotch . . ." Jude gulped. "More than one head?"

"Or more than two eyes, or a couple extra arms, or covered completely in hair. Coruscant's the center of my galaxy--you'll see a little bit of everything," Anakin added.

Jude's eyes, which rarely moved from a half-lidded mellow stupor, were at their widest right now. Imagine what would happen when they actually got there.

"Duuuuuuuuuude."

He considered this. "Darth is gonna be soooo jealous."

Re: Ask Anakin About Coruscant

[emo_padawan]

Anakin jumped. "You know someone named Darth?" he said shakily.

Re: Ask Anakin About Coruscant

[dude_its_jude]

Jude shrugged. "Yeah. Nerd who runs the Stereo Shack back home. No life and like waaaay too into those Space Battles movies. Trains all his employees with those glowy sword things."

Re: Ask Anakin About Coruscant

[emo_padawan]

Anakin was still blinking fairly rapidly. "Right," he said, laughing. "Like Dark Helmet and that stuff."

"Dude. Totally. He tried to make Nikki wear that bikini outfit thing from that one movie when she had to work for him, but she totally punched him out over it."

Re: Ask Anakin About Coruscant

[emo_padawan]

"Was she cute?" Anakin bit his lip. "Never mind. Good for her for hitting Darth."

Re: Ask Anakin About Coruscant

[dude_its_jude]

Jude chuckled. "Yeah, she is cute. But I kinda like my face arranged the way it is, so I'm not gonna say anything to her about that."

Re: Ask Anakin About Coruscant

[emo_padawan]

Anakin laughed. "Good call."
