Ethics, Tuesday, April 14, 2015
"Last weekend saw you with an influx of potential children from your futures," Obi-Wan said. "I am led to believe this is not an unusual occurrence..."
Anakin shook his head. "It happens annually, or near enough. Some of those children are more likely than others. Some are practically impossible."
Sorry, Tebb.
"Whereas others might be almost unavoidable," Obi-Wan said wryly. He had had none, which suited him fine. Minding Anakin's children from a distance was enough for him. "Normally, prophecy does not take such... practical forms. But regardless of what form they take, notions of what the future might be are often vague, and easy to misinterpret. It is such ideas about the future we would like to speak of today."
"Precisely," Anakin said. "And prophecies are notoriously unhelpful and stupid about such things."
Not that he was suuuuper bitter or anything.
Obi-Wan began to pace around the room. "So now that you have met these children and seen these futures, my question is: would you work towards them? Work away from them? Do you believe it is even possible to do such a thing? And if you had no children, do you believe that says anything about your future?"

Booze with lunch on a Tuesday: not an awesome plan.
Re: Talk to Anakin or Obi-Wan
"We could give them a try, at least," Obi-Wan mused, because occasionally he also made bad choices.
Usually when Anakin was around to make it look like the bad choices weren't his idea.

A spot of sarcasm was better than coping with the weird combination of 'perhaps this was a bad idea' and 'it's good to see him light up' he was feeling at the moment.
