Flight- Monday- 3rd period

[solo_sword]

It was over to the Danger Shop for class today, where many of the students would probably recognize the setting as Cape Canaveral. When they met up with Jaina, they'd see she had Sel'je with her, since his dad was sleeping till sunset. That might be fun to explain to some people.

"Those of you who are from this planet probably recognize this place as Cape Canaveral, specifically the Kennedy Space Center," she began. "This is where space shuttle launches have happened, so you can probably guess what we're doing today. We're going to be going into a shuttle and take off, spend a little time in space, and then land safely. And for those of you who have smaller kids with you, it's totally safe, no one can get hurt here, and if anyone doesn't want to go, it's fine to stay out here." Somehow Jaina didn't think there'd be many of those...

"So I shouldn't talk about things like getting married, having kids, or boyfriends," she checked.

Anakin considered for a moment, then nodded. "We're not having this conversation for at least another ten years."

...Technically, he was right. She was going to keep that really guarded, though.

"You do know I'll be forty-two then."

"Yes," Anakin said like he'd known that all along instead of remembering right after he'd said it. "That's good. Because my Jaina should be twenty-eight by then, and it won't be weird for either of you."

Anakin Solo, attempted ruiner of social lives, everyone.

"I was single when I was twenty-eight. That doesn't work for me," Jaina said.

Well, for part of twenty-eight.

"Yeah, but still old enough for it to not be weird," Anakin argued. Not that he had a clue why this weirded him out so much.

She was gonna ask anyway.

"Then why's it so weird when I'm thirty-two?"

Anakin gave her a look, like he was exasperated that she was using older-sibling logic on him to derail his completely rational and justified freakout.

". . . it just is?"

Not his greatest shining moment here.
