School gates [just before 2 o'clock]

Aug 29, 2006 14:41

Anakin had his bag and his lightsaber and a transport to catch.

He just needed to say goodbye to three people...and let go of Rory's hand, which he was holding like it was the only thing keep him upright.

[OOC: For Aeryn, John, and Rory, please. Very much for broadcast.]

Woe.

John has a feeling he might be doing most of the talking since Aeryn's quiet and distant right now.

"Got everything?"

Re: John & Aeryn emo_padawan August 29 2006, 21:56:55 UTC

Anakin nodded, still gripping Rory's hand. "Pictures and all," he said.

"Brush your teeth? Wash behind your ears?"

So much woe.

Re: Rory auroryborealis August 29 2006, 21:46:02 UTC

Rory held onto Anakin's hand so tightly that she almost worried she might be hurting him. "Take me with you?"

Re: Rory emo_padawan August 29 2006, 21:56:05 UTC

Anakin pulled her off to the side and leaned his forehead against hers. "I can't," he said, blinking back tears.

"I'm little and I could live on caf alone and I'm quiet and I could help out in the Temple," Rory mumbled, sniffling.

After Anakin's gone. emo_padawan August 29 2006, 21:43:52 UTC

Running out of ways to say woe.

Re: After Anakin's gone. auroryborealis August 30 2006, 01:20:54 UTC

Rory stood very still, not even really crying.

She'd never gone so numb in her life.

Re: After Anakin's gone. whitedeathpod August 30 2006, 01:22:22 UTC

"I'm sorry," John says because it's really the only thing he can think of to say.

Re: After Anakin's gone. auroryborealis August 30 2006, 01:24:14 UTC

Rory shrugged. "It was inevitable," she said hollowly.
