Anakin knew that technically, he should leave Obi-Wan alone. His former master was already in a somewhat sour mood after he had barged into his classroom again, but how was he supposed to know that he was teaching a somewhat important topic to the younglings?

"Everything is important, Anakin," Obi-Wan had said wearily. And then Anakin had mentioned something about selective learning, which had earned him a good, long, hard look before Obi-Wan promptly decided that he wasn't in the mood to entertain Anakin anymore. Which Anakin supposed was fair, but that still stung a little.

So that was why Anakin had decided to offer another peace offering. Small candies and chocolates that he had collected with Ahsoka while roaming the shops earlier that day. The two had sampled enough candies to make their tongues an absurd shade of red-green-purple, but Anakin suspected that he would just have to try to reveal as little of his tongue as possible when he spoke to Obi-Wan.

So Anakin knocked on Obi-Wan's door, rubbing at his lips just in case there was anything to make him look less insincere. (And Anakin was sorry. He actually was.)

Thankfully, Obi-Wan opened the door. The two looked at each other for a second before Obi-Wan shook his head. "If you're here to ask me to help you find your lightsaber again—"

"I'm not!" Anakin interrupted. "I'm here to apologize."

Obi-Wan lifted an eyebrow. "Apologize."

"Yeah," Anakin said. He gave Obi-Wan a guilty, close-lipped smile. "I'm sorry about interrupting your lesson. And making fun of your said lesson. And also asking you to help me find my lightsaber, even though it was just stuck under my bunk. Like it was the last two times I thought I lost it. Basically, I'm sorry, and I won't do it again. For a good while, at least."

Obi-Wan shook his head again. "I wasn't actually angry with you, Anakin," he said wearily. "But you realize that when you interrupt, it sets a bad example."

"I know! I know," Anakin said hastily. "So I'm sorry. I'll even help out with lessons—"

"Even if they're not important?"

"They're all important," Anakin said.

Obi-Wan looked at him a moment longer. Then, face softening, he said, "Alright. I accept your apology."

Anakin grinned. Then, pushing the bag of sweets into Obi-Wan's hand, he added, "I was gonna give this to you too, by the way. Before you accepted my apology."

Obi-Wan looked down at the contents and looked back up at Anakin. "Bribery?"

"Maybe?"

Obi-Wan let out a short laugh. Then, jerking his head into the room, he said, "I'm not going to have these all by myself."

"I was hoping you'd say that," Anakin said, following Obi-Wan inside.
