shanaya watches from afar, a soft look on her face as she smiles at anakin standing on top of a shaak, but then it bucks and he falls. shanaya smirks trying to hold on her life, until the senator's concerned voice calls out for him.
she runs to him and asks him if he's all right, he turns around and laughs like an idiot. she hits him in mock anger and they roll around on the ground laughing. shanaya ignores the throbbing pain in her heart.
"you kids going to do anything or just roll around in the dirt all day?" the jedi girl smiles.
⚔️
the three sat at a dinner table, a fruit for dessert set in front of them.
"and when i got to them, we went into... aggressive negotiations." he looks at teckla and thanks her. "aggressive negotiations, what's that?" padmè questions. "well, negotiations with a lightsaber." anakin explains.
shanaya scoffs, "the only type of negotiation anakin likes." anakin raises an eyebrow, "you really can't be talking." the kyrian girl gives anakin a dirty look while he smiles smugly.
padmè tries to pierce a piece of fruit with her fork but it moves slightly. she tries again but it moves again. both women glare at anakin sand he looks at them innocently.
padmè tries again, but it lifts up and hovers. "quit it!" padmè scolds. anakin loops the fruit and starts using the force to lift up shanaya's fruit too. "anakin!" both padmè and shanaya hiss at the same time. he brings the fruit to his hand.
"if master kenobi saw me doing this, he'd be very grumpy." he smiles, pleased, he cut the fruit into slices.
⚔️
the force seemed to love torturing shanaya's heart. she heard every word padmè and anakin exchanged, she could feel what anakin felt, he projected them so loudly.
she understood how he felt then, it was similar to how she felt about anakin.
