Welcome to kiss, throw pies at or dunk your friends and enemies, and enjoy a nice sunny day.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

Kanan was muttering to himself, now.

"You're a real piece of work, you know that?"

He used to look up to this guy. Never meet your heroes, right?

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

"In my defense, I've spent almost two decades teaching teenagers?"

And he was a jackass.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

"They taught you how to be this way, huh?"

Kanan doubted Anakin needed the help.

In fairness, he wasn't much better.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

"Probably...40 percent of it," Anakin admitted.

At least he was being fair.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

Kanan was actually kind of impressed about that bit, admittedly.

"Maybe I need to start taking lessons from them, too."

Considering he was teaching Summer how to fly and Tip how to use a bladed weapon, he was probably making up at least a little for the fact that he wasn't in a classroom this semester, at the very least.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

"They teach me other things, too," Anakin replied, "but the teasing is more fun."

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

"I bet they're thrilled to have such a naturally gifted student," Kanan said, his tone still the slightest bit dry. "How did Master Kenobi not blow you out an airlock when you were his Padawan?"

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

"He is a wise and excessively patient man," Anakin told him.

And possibly a heavy drinker.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

"Clearly," Kanan sighed, settling back in his seat again and shaking his head. "Maybe he could share some of that patience with the rest of us."

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

"That he won't do," Anakin said. "He hoards it all to himself."

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

"That really does explain so much, though."

About Obi-Wan, mostly.

"So... he's back on the island again, huh?"

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

Anakin nodded. "Though he's really not much for celebrations these days."

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

"Nah, I didn't figure I'd catch him around here," Kanan allowed. "He's more a 'hut in the woods with the eopies' kind of guy nowadays. I should pay him a visit at some point."

Since his training had gone on hold again when Obi-Wan had left, and now Kanan had slid back into this weird holding pattern of procrastination and running through what Soresu drills he could remember. He had nobody to blame but himself for that, at least.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

"He'd like that," Anakin said. "Get him out of his own head."

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

"Get me out of mine," Kanan replied. And then kind of made a face and shrugged his shoulders. Now was not going to be sharing and caring time with Anakin Skywalker, damn it. "It's good to see him here, anyway."

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

Anakin's smile turned genuine. "Always."

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

Kanan paused for a long moment, and then added, "It's good to not be alone, here."

There. That was his one concession to Jedi-related feelings for the day.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

Anakin smiled. "It is," he agreed.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

"You're still completely insufferable, though."

Kanan wasn't comfortable enough to just let a nice moment be, apparently.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

"And you've got really stoopa facial hair," Anakin countered.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

"So that's an easy fix for one of us," Kanan replied. "Where does that leave you?"

He happened to like his really bad beard, kark it.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

"Insufferable," Anakin said with a shrug. "I've accepted it."

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

"Well... everybody has something they should be proud of, I guess."

He said, as if Hera didn't tell him fairly regularly just how insufferable he was, too.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[sith_happened]

"I have plenty of other things to be proud of, too," Anakin said with a smirk.

Re: Dunk Tanks: Kanan

[uncertain_dume]

"Dare I ask?"

... Yeah. Yeah, he was curious.
