Disclaimer: I don't own Star Wars. Or even the idea really. Oh, wait, yes I do. I said it tonight at dinner. Heheh, my bad…
sluuuuurp
Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi stiffened at the sound that penetrated the silence of the dinner table.
sluuuuurp
He looked up to see his 14-year-old padawan, Anakin Skywalker, noisily shoving ramino noodles into his mouth with his hands. Obi-Wan frowned.
sluuuuurp
He shut his eyes briefly, trying to push his anger and frustration at his sometimes-idiotic apprentice away. It didn't work, and when he opened his eyes, Anakin was still being loud and disgusting.
sluuuuurp
He sighed, ready to calmly tell off the boy.
"Anakin," he began. Anakin raised his head, noodles hanging from his mouth. He slurped them up, quickly.
"What?"
"Use the fork," said Obi-Wan, staring pointedly at the simple, durasteel fork that lay beside Anakin's bowl. The younger Jedi's eyes flicked to the four-pronged utensil, then back at his master. He froze, his body completely still, then, "AHAHAHAHAHA!"
Obi-Wan blinked. He was laughing? At what?
Anakin keeled over off his chair, falling to the ground with a loud thud, and clutching his sides, eyes squeezed shut in laughter. "U-use the—HAHAHA—fork… AHAHAha…"
Obi-Wan blinked again.
From the floor, his padawan explained in between bouts of insane giggles. "Like… use… hahaha… the Force…"
The Jedi Master shook his head. Use the Force, use the Fork. Sad, really.
Beepbeep
The door chime made him twitch. Standing, he walked over to it, with a disdainful glance at the writhing form on his dining room carpet. He opened the door, and it slid to the side with a faint hiss to reveal an annoyed-looking Master Siri Tachi and Padawan Ferus Olin, from the room next to his.
"What," said Siri, "is going on here?"
Obi-Wan took another glance at his padawan, then looked back at her. "Nothing," he answered simply.
"It doesn't look like nothing," Ferus pointed out. His master nodded her agreement, folding her arms over her chest.
Obi-Wan paused, thinking. "I told him to…" a sudden spurt of hilarity overcame him, and girlish giggles burst out of him. "I told him to use the… the Fork…"
He sank down against the doorframe, laughing and gasping for air. His flailing hand whacked the close button, and the door hissed shut in front of a very bewildered Ferus Olin, and Siri Tachi.
