The Jedi Temple, Coruscant, Thousands Of Years Before *THAT* GFFA, Saturday

[suitably_heroic]

So the whole 'teach Sparkle self-defense on Saturdays' was working out pretty well, schedule-wise, so far. He'd be in on Friday and talk through his next deployment with Mical, he'd get the training done with Sparks the next day and grab some food, and then he'd be off into the galaxy to do the job. Made a guy much happier than barricading himself in his apartment for three weeks.

"Anyway, the others know you're going to be stopping by more often," he said. "If you ever get here and I'm not here, they'll either help you out if they have the time, or they'll at least make sure you get some nerf in you before putting you on the next portal back home."

Beat.

"Try not to sass Brianna too hard if that happens, 'cause she knows more nerve strikes than I do."

[[ for the kid. ]]

"It helps," Atton confirmed. "You're buying yourself an extra shot at making it out of a fight each time."

Maybe if he phrased it like that, Sparkle would stop whining?

Sparkle would never stop whining. Unless he was teasing, or just being an antagonistic little shit, whining was Sparkle's thing.

"And that's what I'm here for," Sparkle agreed, and then frowned a little back down at the weights. "And that thirty seconds is way up already, isn't it?"

"Yep," Atton said, chipper. "So get back to it."
