Office hours [all day]

[sith_happened]

Anakin was not alone in his office today, though it might be difficult to spot Juliet among the dozens of toys Anakin had showered her with since Sunday.

Not that he was feeling guilty that she'd been kidnapped from right under his nose. Really. At all. Just ask him!

He was already beginning the conga drum he'd bought her, but she seemed so happy

No, Jaina knew nothing at all about guilt in a situation like that. She'd brought a present for no reason at all, really!

"Someone's having fun in here," she said from the doorway. Something told her the fun was not being had by Anakin.

[sith_happened]

"JAI!" Juliet squealed, toddling over.

"Oh, she's having a blast," Anakin said a little ruefully. "The drums are not coming home with us."

[solo_sword]

"Hi, sweetheart," Jaina said, scooping her up with one arm to show her the plane in her other hand. "I brought you something."

And to her grandfather, she winced and said, "I'm so sorry it makes noise."

[sith_happened]

"All toys make noise," Anakin replied, "at least until I fix them after she goes to sleep." He smiled grimly. "Why they leave the volume control out for a toddler to decide upon is a question for the ages. I fix that so that's hidden by the power switch."

Everyone needs hobbies?

"X-WING!" Juliet shouted gleefully. "MINE?"

When Katniss wandered in, she was more than a little curious about the noise. And when she was surprised by the presence of a little girl, her face lit up in one of her rare, real smiles.

"You have company today," she said, grinning down at Juliet.

[sith_happened]

"I do," Anakin confirmed, smiling back. "This is my daughter, Juliet. Juliet, say hello to one of my students, Katniss Everdeen."

"'lo," Juliet whispered, hiding behind her doggie.

[thegirl_onfire]

"Hi, Juliet," Katniss said, crouching down to wave at Juliet at her own eye level. "I like all your toys. Did your father get them for you?"

[sith_happened]

Juliet shook her head. "Book!" she added, holding one up.

"That was from her mother," Anakin translated. "We went a little overboard at ToysRUs yesterday."

[auroryborealis]

did you lose our baby? and if not, has she gotten over her new turtle fear?

Rory really should have better things to do than text Anakin every few minutes, but the job search wasn't going that well.

[sith_happened]

J's still here he texted back. Playing with new airplane fr Jaina, who says hi.

[auroryborealis]

noisy airplane??? :(

Followed by:

and hi to Jaina. maybe this will stop the x-wing pleas.

[sith_happened]

hope so. she's running around making her own airplane noises. told her batteries died.

Anakin was a big ol' liar to his daughter when it came to how fast batteries died.

how's job search?

[mouthy_merc]

"SKYWALKER!" Yes, someone had let Jan loose upon the offices. Fear. Fear.

[sith_happened]

"JAN!" Juliet cried gleefully. "TOYS!"

[mouthy_merc]

Just try not to go deaf from the squeal of delight that Jan gave in response. "You hafta share," she informed Juliet with all sincerity.

[sith_happened]

"Kay," Juliet said. "My air-pane!"

That was her favorite.
