Office hours [all day]

Jul 30, 2009 00:39

After missing Ben in the gym--Anakin'd received an apologetic message a few minutes after he'd started walking to his office, something about oversleeping--Anakin had sat down in his chair.

...and promptly fallen asleep again.

The door was open, though.

Another day of disturbing dreams had led Veronica to seek out someone she thought might be able to shed some light on whatever was going on.

She lifted her hand to knock on Anakin's door and announce her presence when she realized he was sleeping.

Okay, clearly whatever was going on was affecting him as well. She sat down and waited for him to wake up.

She was waiting a good fifteen minutes before Anakin lifted his head with a bleary "oh, what the hell."

He rubbed his eyes. "Veronica?"

It was a very long fifteen minutes during which she fretted a good bit.

"I would ask if you're okay, but I'm guessing you're not," Veronica said. "I stopped by to ask if you knew anything about people sharing dreams. I've been having a lot of random naps lately."

She didn't need to be a detective to figure out that whatever was going on was also affecting Anakin.

"Sharing dreams?" Anakin repeated. "Not that I'm really familiar with. What kind of dreams?"

Deflect, Anakin, deflect.

When Raven arrived at Anakin's office and found him asleep, she naturally became concerned, wondering if whatever was happening to her and Dinah had struck him as well. She hesitated a moment, then reached out to see if she could sense his feelings, if his sleep was peaceful or troubled.

His walls, even asleep, were incredibly high, but grief and guilt were leaking through just before he opened his eyes.

"Again?" he said, rubbing his eyes. "I swear I don't sleep like this."

Her own troubles were forgotten and replaced by concern for another. "Something is troubling you," Raven said. "You were feeling sadness and guilt."

"Strange dream about losing a friend," Anakin said. "But things were wrong. It felt real, but it can't be real. He lives in LA now."
