AN2 - Happy 2013, everyone!
"So, have you decided what you would like for your birthday?"
Anakin had been studying a blown-out fuze coil for over half an hour, as Han tinkered with the forward shield settings on the Falcon, during a quiet afternoon. Leia was in session and the twins were sitting with Wedge and the Rouge's on the other side of the hanger, no doubt learning bad words and exaggerated war stories.
Han turned to look at his small son, watching him turn the broken part over and over again, a frown developing between his eyes.
"Anakin?"
"I want a sister." he replied, not looking up.
Han dropped the spanner, surprised. "You have a sister."
Anakin looked up at him then, blue eyes unblinking.
"I know. I want another sister."
"I don't know, Buddy, sisters are a lot of work. Wouldn't you rather have a new console game or a metric toolset?"
Anakin's mouth skewed slightly, considering his new piece of information.
"Oh! I want a volt-meter!"
"Instead of another sister?"
"Yeah!"
"Good choice, Bud."
