Fourth-floor common room

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Snagging one of the tables in the fourth floor common room, Anakin dropped his Advanced Negotiations textbook and carefully recopied notes (ones clean of any inappropriate doodles he might have been making during class) and waited for Phoebe to show up for their study session.

A feeling of dread had been with him all day. His shoulders were tense and he was very, very twitchy--his hand reaching for the lightsaber that was no longer at his waist. He'd be grateful for any company that would keep him distracted.

Belthazor walked into the fourth floor common room. "Hey Anakin," he said. "Phoebe wanted me to tell you she's not feeling well so don't wait for her."

Anakin dropped the pencil he had be Force-levitating and turned to look at Belthazor. "That's too bad. Must be something going around today."

He rolled his shoulders. "Not the plague. Something else."

"Well, I haven't heard about you having dementia, so yeah, probably not the plague," Belthazor agreed with a grin. He hesitated, then asked, "You feel something strange, too?"

"Yeah. Like this giant, I don't know, shadow. I keep having these dreams about water." Anakin shuddered. "I grew up in the desert. Not a big fan of water."

"Something's coming. I have a bad feeling about it."

Any other day Belthazor might've started tweaking Anakin about Amidala just to make him twitch, but he was still too wrapped up in his own angst confusion. "Yeah," he agreed. "I can't get a feel on whether it's good or bad, but something is going to happen."

Anakin's hand moved down towards where his lightsaber used to be clipped to his waist.

"Think today might be a good time to stay close to campus." He laughed shakily. "Or take the first ship off this planet. I'm feeling a big disturbance in the Force."

He shook his head. "Great. Now I'm sounding like my old teachers. Next thing I'll be bent over a walking stick and yelling at beings to stop running in the hallway."

"Lucky for me, I'm going home for the weekend." He paused. "Actually, I'd rather stay here. Well...watch out for that disturbance then. See you next week." He turned and headed for his room.
