[All of them speaking up gives Anakin a moment to stop and think, to try and process it all. Even with all of their kind words to try and deflect all the blame on Palpatine, there was still the fact this man, the one Anakin was so close to, was going to manipulate him and the Republic so terribly. There was shame in it, and it hurt.

This wasn't part of the prophecy. He's supposed to be the Chosen One, not... this, what they're telling him he becomes. He failed them. He failed the other Jedi, he failed Obi-Wan... He failed himself. He can't look at Obi-Wan anymore when the man speaks. He turns his attention down to his lap, trying to ignore all the eyes watching him.

If it's one thing, though, it's that Luke seems to have a way of keeping Anakin's emotions in check. Because despite how distraught Anakin feels right now, Luke knows how to say the right things and is keeping this from getting a whole lot worse than it could have for the moment. He's staying calm. Well, as calm as he can be anyway. He's managed to keep from lashing out in anger so far.]


I know, and I am thankful. I just... I want to know everything—how it all happens, what all happens. If this is my future I have to know, even... even if there's terrible things I've done. [Because if he turns to the Dark Side, he probably has done some things he's not going to be proud of. But he has to know. He looks up at Luke again.] Wait... you said sister.
