Rey's warehouse- Friday afternoon

[thatwaslucky]

After a few days back home it was back to Fandom and the normal routine. She'd done the course on Ajan Kloss enough to be glad for a shorter one here, even if she turned on the weather for rain to make it harder on herself on purpose.

Which was something she immediately regretted, but at least she wasn't slipping on the jumps this time.

Anakin came in still damp from his post-paintball shower so additional rain wouldn't bug him. "Hello?"

[thatwaslucky]

If Rey didn't answer, it was because she was still on the course, but it was pretty easy to hear her running it.

[sith_happened]

Anakin went over to the weather modifications and turned it to snow as a helpful(...ish) way to show he was there.

[thatwaslucky]

The noise of frustration Rey made at that might be obvious, but she didn't break stride, continuing on the latter half of the course.

"You're doing really well!" Anakin called up, firing up some remotes.

[thatwaslucky]

"I can tell!" Rey called, ignoring her lightsaber to defend herself as she ran the course.

[sith_happened]

"It's important to keep learning!" Anakin added.

[thatwaslucky]

"Sure!"

Of course now she was battling remotes on the tail end of this, and speeding up to finish because she hated those things.

[sith_happened]

All part of Anakin's evil plan!

"There you go," Anakin praised.

[thatwaslucky]

Luckily Rey hadn't had that much further to go, so she managed to get through the end of the course at least without getting shot.

"That was dirty," she said as she came to a stop. And really, she should have expected this.

[sith_happened]

Anakin grinned. "Maybe," he agreed, "but you handled it."

[thatwaslucky]

"My head's in the right place today, I think," she explained, pretty pleased to hear that.

[sith_happened]

"Good," Anakin said. "What do you think has you pulling your focus so well?"

[thatwaslucky]

"I'm not sure. I just got back from a trip home. Maybe the change in scenery helped," she said. "And Luke's course requires focus on different things than this one, if that makes sense."

[sith_happened]

Anakin nodded. "That does make sense. You see this one with fresh eyes again."

[thatwaslucky]

"Exactly. I think it shook me out of being used to doing it," she said.

[sith_happened]

"It certainly sharpened your focus," Anakin said approvingly.

[thatwaslucky]

"Thank you," Rey said with a smile. "Maybe I should be heading home more often."

[sith_happened]

"As long as you come back," Anakin said, smiling back.

[thatwaslucky]

"I will," she promised. "I realized with a central base I don't need to wait for anyone to call me back, so John and I decided to go just because."

[sith_happened]

"How was it?" Anakin asked. "No one get shot?"

[thatwaslucky]

"No injuries, no problems. We were only there for a few days, so we helped get some things organized and I trained with Leia. John got to see some of it," she said. "It wasn't really a vacation but it was pretty casual."

[sith_happened]

"That sounds rewarding," Anakin said. "How did John like watching you train?"

[thatwaslucky]

"I think he liked it, from what he could see of the course," Rey smiled. "It's a big part of my life, so he's interested."

Which was still kind of stunning to her.

"Well, he's welcome to watch here, too," Anakin said.
