IV (ACTION).

[notvader]

[ anakin has been reading and listening to the tales about christmas and particularly the man, this son of god, who the day surrounds and finds himself feeling a little more than uncomfortable with the stories. a man born of a woman who wasn't impregnated? a boy who had a destiny that couldn't be fought? it hits a little too close to home for

[Someone else who's had about enough of all the talk about Christmas is going to be wandering outside, too.

And now that someone is covered in snow. Thank you, angry stranger.]

--mmph.

[notvader]

[ anakin hadn't meant to coat anyone in snow, but like many of his actions, he didn't think them through to fruition before he did them. it was one of his worst qualities and he found himself trudging through the snow and gesturing with both hands to push it off the girl he'd accidentally covered. anger momentarily forgotten, he apologizes. ]

Sorry! I should've looked before I pushed. You alright?

[sweetcissy]

You should have. Don't, I can-- [And you're not actually touching the snow. My, my. Have a curious look.]

--I can use my wand...

[notvader]

[ anakin stops, the snow stopping in mid-air with him, and falling to the ground as he lets go of his mental hold on the force around it, letting his hands fall to his side. ]

Wand? Let me guess, one of those...magic-types.

[hippocraticly]

[ McCoy discovered that he was staying more and more inside lately as the weather continued to batter Luceti with its relentless snowfall and accompanying cold snaps. Not that Georgia was unfamiliar to the drop in temperature at this time of year, but it was uncomfortable for the man nonetheless.

But today, he had gone outside in order to find out more about these Filial spirits; a plan that was dashed when a wave of snow suddenly ploughed into the side of him and drenched him. His nose itched on reaction and he sneezed. ]

Goddamn it.

[notvader]

[ and at covering the doctor unintentionally in snow, the jedi knight swears in huttese and instantly uncovers the man, rushing up to him. ]

I didn't mean to do that. ...Sorry.

[hippocraticly]

[ McCoy grumbles as he raises a hand to wipe off the snow... already finding the Force sensitive man has beaten him to it. ]

What, did you run out of harmless animals to levitate? Hmph.

[notvader]

[ see icon. that look. you're getting it. ]

[merepuppet]

Someone must be a little upset. [Kadaj saw that fit of yours, Anakin, and has now found it in his right to come over and harass you a little.]

[notvader]

[ you are a brave, brave man, kadaj. ]

What makes you say that?

[merepuppet]

[He makes a simple gesture at the now visible ground near Anakin, and then shrugs.]

It's obvious. Anyone who saw would say the same thing.

[notvader]

[ anakin narrows his gaze, not appreciating his fit being pointed out to him. ]

[hazelrink]

[And seeing this fit there... Charle approaches! To try to be helpful, really, but she's kinda idly smiling for the time being because she wants to say he he's going to calm down a bit on his own]

[notvader]

[ anakin stands there for a moment, breathing in and out per calming techniques he's learned over the years. he's getting too angry, too irritated, too on edge; this was never a good thing. he did things sometimes in anger that made him look at himself in disgust later on. sensing charle, he turns -- he'd force a smile, but he can't really muster one right now, so instead she's going to get a look that's at least calmer than the one he was wearing a moment ago. ]

...hi.

[hazelrink]

Hello!

[Complete with a bright smile all her own. Maybe it's to be reassuring, maybe she just doesn't get it! ...But Little does she know Anakin's Force-y-ness can see through her concern there and she's smiling for his beenfit as she see it]

[notvader]

[ and indeed he can see through the façade, but he appreciates it nonetheless and refrains from pointing it out. ]

You, uh...enjoy this kind of weather?

[goldenpathredux]

[Leto clutches at the places the snow has hit him, frantically brushing it away and swearing extensively in Fremen. Someone's allergic to water.]

[notvader]

[ though anakin doesn't understand that language, the panic is sensed and he quickly moves the snow off of the young man, rushing over to his side and apologizing, looking right irritated -- with himself for causing people trouble, of course, not with the man who had the misfortune of being too close when he snapped. ]

Are you alright?

[goldenpathredux]

[Leto is actually in immense pain but his expression does not betray a bit of it. The Force might though.]

I am fine, merely surprised. Precipitation like this doesn't exist on my home planet.

[notvader]

[ anakin can indeed sense that pain, concern on his features. ]

I'm from a desert planet, originally myself. ...are you sure you're okay?
