The fury showed within the two blue gems dissipated the moment the door slided shut. Padme, raising to a sitting position scolded at her friend's suddenly sunny disposition, " did you really had to bully him that much?"

"Really Padme, anyone earing you would think I have harassed him to tears," Ana replied in fake innocence crossing her arms over her chest.

"Maybe not to tears, but Clovis seemed ready to bite your head off," the Naboo pointed out.

"It wasn't really me the focus of his anger, he just dislike me, a lot," Ana said dismissively.

Shaking her head at her sister-in-law's disinterest Padme chosen instead to change the subject, "not that I lament it, but don't you think it strange the fact there is yet to arrive any medical droid to see to my wellbeing. I'm sure Clovis must have taken care of such the moment you cut off the communication."

Ananta smiled to herself, Dod had his hands on that, she was certain, one more thing I'll have to thank him someday! "It would be here shortly, I am sure," a small delay is something little more than common, but in excessive amount it could cement any suspicion Dott may bee expecting from Amidala's sudden hilliness.

"I know," the Senator said defensive, "but still..."

The Naboo nodded her concordance, "remember the password is Padme."

Ana rolled her eyes at her," really Padme, did you actually expected me to," she asked arching a brow at her. "I wonder what Ani would say about that," she continued as afterthought.

Padme"s face darkened, "are you implying you will tel him," the politician inquired disbelievingly, she knew her friend had a mischievous trait but she seriously doubted Ana would procure to cause any kind of drift between her and Ani.

"Force no," Ana denied, "we are already in a difficult situation without my brother being in one of his moods, but I can't help but wonder," the Chancellor's aide said grinning just as she turn in her heels and left.

The Naboo' s stunned face finally broke as a smile started tugging at the corner of her lips, it was highly improper, but she could not deny the amusement such situation would arose.

Shiraya help me, Ana's oddities are starting to rub on me.
