[Locked to Kitty]

You were right.

But everything's all wrong now.

You asked me to tell you. There you go.

What happened?

End result? I'm not going to be seeing her anymore.

...Anakin. Sweetie. Back up just a little bit. When you said I was right, I was right in what sense?

She didn't find love elsewhere.

[identity profile] shadowed-kat.livejournal.com 2005-02-19 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
*wonders vaguely what time it is* She loves you?

*nod* And proceeded to say that we...can't. Be together.

To herself, "...I'd kill for coffee right about now." To him, "That's it?"

[identity profile] morally-cryptic.livejournal.com 2005-02-19 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
"That's the important part. Yes."

Rubs her temples. "And when she said that you couldn't be together, you did...what?"

[identity profile] morally-cryptic.livejournal.com 2005-02-19 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Deep sigh, which is more of a long shuddery exhalation, "I told her I couldn't pretend that there was nothing between us. That I couldn't be around her and pretend. She said that it might be better then if I weren't around her. And gave me the choice. I walked away."

"Oh, Anakin..." It's almost reproving, but sympathetic. "Why didn't you stay?"

[identity profile] morally-cryptic.livejournal.com 2005-02-19 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Voice hardening again and yet, a tone of despair underneath it all, "She's right. We can't be together. I'm a Jedi. She's a Senator. There's no way it could ever work. Duty comes first."

Silent, then, very quietly, "You are so very, very wrong."

[identity profile] morally-cryptic.livejournal.com 2005-02-19 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
His hands are shaking, he has to clench his fists again to stop them. Very even, flat tone. "You asked me to tell you what happened. I've told you. That's it."

[identity profile] morally-cryptic.livejournal.com 2005-02-19 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
"Happy?" Incredulous tone, then, "of course I'm not happy!"

[identity profile] shadowed-kat.livejournal.com 2005-02-19 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
"Then make yourself happy."

[identity profile] shadowed-kat.livejournal.com 2005-02-19 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh, for Christ's sake. Do you want to know something about duty, Anakin? People die because of duty. People focus their entire lives on duty. And why they die, they don't say, 'I wish I'd done my duty more.' They say, 'I wish I'd loved more.'"

"Please, just leave me alone now."

[identity profile] shadowed-kat.livejournal.com 2005-02-19 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
Sympathetically, "Poor boy. I will. But I'm calling you later."

He just waves her off.
