She shrugged at his next question. "Same." Perhaps she wasn't the only one having a bad day and wandering around the castle because of it. Of course it was possible he was actually having a good day and was thinking happy thoughts because of it, but Vashti was in a miserable and selfish enough mood to think that it was impossible for anyone to have a good day today.
Anakin lowered himself down to the ground beside her, stretching his legs out in front of him, and turning his head to watch her. The last couple of times he'd seen her, she'd seemed pretty upset, which was sort of worrisome. Not that he knew her all that well of course, but Vashti seemed a cool person, and he'd like to be able to call her friend. And he just hated seeing people down anyways. There was too much misery in the world already.
Watching her merely shrug, and seeing her lips form the respone of 'same', Anakin gave a nod, glancing across at the wall opposite them.
"I guess it's just a thinking day huh?" Before he turned back to her. Watching in silence for a second.
"Do you...wanna talk about it? I can be a pretty good listener." He refused to accept the irony of those words.
