And because Kyle's so fucking bored, Anakin's got a little girl watching him. From underneath a table. Jacen does that thing...disappearing. And she knows Anakin's face from holos.

Still, she hides under the table, tauntaun clutched to her chest, thumb tucked into her mouth, just watching for now.

Anakin doesn't notice her for a while, focused on the schematics in front of him and too wrapped up in the weirdness of this Force-hiding to pay attention to anything other than his danger sense.

But he catches sight of her when he looks away and brightens, just a little.

He tilts his pen in a half-wave.

Allana smiles around her thumb, shyly, whispering a hello. She inches out from under the table, just a little.

"Hi."

He switches off the holo-display (or whatever, Star Wars tech) and flips shut the notepad. He'd rather not be plotting how to attack Jacen while his daughter is right there.

"I didn't know you came here."

"Sometimes I hide here," She lisps, crawling out from under the table, tripping on her dress a little. "Didn't know you came here either."

"It's good for that," he says thoughtfully, meaning the hiding.

"Well. Now we both know. Want to sit? I'll get us some cookies or something."

"Thank you." Allana says politely as she comes up to Anakin's booth, coming to sit riiiiight next to him. "I do like cookies."

He shifts slightly to make space just in time, then leans past her to wave down a waitrat.

"Hey, a mix of your best cookies, huh? About--" He holds his hands half a metre apart. "--that size of plate."

Allana almost blurts something out...something she's thought about since feeling things about Jacen. About Daddy.

Her mouth clamps shut though and she tugs on the tauntaun's ear. "Thank you."

"You're welcome," he says, and grins finally, partly at the awkwardness. It's still new, thinking of Allana as Jacen's daughter, even if it's not exactly surprising.

"Who's your friend?"

He nudges the tauntaun.

"Jacen." She whispers, looking at it. "He...gave him to me." Her lips move silently for a moment. "For when he's not there...an' he's never there, so."

The grin fades.

"This Jacen is cuter and fuzzier," he says after a moment. "Better deal anyway."

"You're nicer." She mutters quickly, feeling like she's betraying her father as she says it. It's what she's wanted to say earlier. "Nicer than him. It's...I like you more. Don't tell him."
