BEACH BAD, BEACH BAD [OPEN]

[sin-and-misery.livejournal.com]

To say Vader was out of his element was the understatement of the millennium. He'd taken refuge under a large umbrella and was seated in his his chair as though it were the Emperor's own throne. Under the pretense of meditating, he was keeping a three-foot radius of space around him sand-free.

His beach towel would stay immaculate until he got someone else's blood on it.

Mara waved her hand and the sand he had so painstakingly kept away from himself comes crashing back to his feet. Burying them.


"Do shut up."

"This is EXACTLY the sort of behavior I was referring to!" he shouted, and expanded his sand-free ring to a radius of six feet with the force of a small bomb going off. "Childish and petty!"

"I'm on vacation. I'm alive and so is my family. I think I'm allowed to take leave of my faculties."

Vader threw his hands up in the air. "Then I can achieve nothing with you. You are clearly just as spoiled and petulant now as you were at three years of age."

She tossed him her bottle of water. "Don't dehydrate out here. Luke'd be so upset."

Very purposefully, and without ever looking away from her face, Vader undid the cap and poured the water out onto the sand.

"You cannot poison me so easily."

"I was just drinking that--" She broke off and shook her head. "You know what? Nevermind. Never. Mind."

"I am not fooled by your displays of altruism," Vader snapped.
