Flight and Flying [Thursday, August 16, 3rd period]

[sith_happened]

When the flight workshop arrived at the shed, they found it locked up tight and Anakin leaning up against it.


His hands were crossed and tucked up under his robes, but that wasn't particularly unusual. Neither was the pinched, worried look around his eyes.

"Today we fly helicopters, which are waiting over at Selkie Cove" he said, voice as steady as always. "If you happen to buzz them too close to That Woman's office, well, too bad for her." He made eye contact with each student. "I graduated from this school, too, so I know that this will probably be ignored, but...the teachers are here to look after you. You know better by now than to touch live electrical cables or set yourself on fire. Our temporary...whoever...falls into the same category. Nothing is making you go into her office. So don't do it."

He lowered his voice. "Please."

He shrugged. "Plea made. Moving on. Because I can occasionally be strange, you have to wear these fetching hats as you practice your maneuvers in the helicopters. And no, you can't whine your way out of it."

That... actually made sense. "You seem to have that irritation in common with pretty much everyone who's encountered her," Qui-Gon observed wryly. "Are we sure she's not on a Jedi council somewhere?"

Anakin gave Qui-Gon a flat look. "The Council might have its moments, but it's never intentionally hurt someone just to see how they'd react. She might not be a Sith Lord, but it doesn't mean she should be dealt with lightly." He pressed his lips together. "Or by half-trained younglings."

Qui-Gon frowned a little at the rebuke, but considered Anakin's words before answering. "It seems," he began slowly, "that those types always look for and target the weakest. I suspect though, she may find the half-trained younglings here not quite as weak as she may have anticipated."

"I think that the half-trained younglings might be thinking a little too much of themselves," Anakin retorted. "This isn't a game. She made Luke bleed and he's hardly a pushover."
