Anakin had been working on being more positive lately. First things first was to rectify the family dinner gone wrong. The first attempt at togetherness had failed miserably for the young Jedi. He hadn't wanted to go. It was only with Tahiri's gentle nudging did he even show up at all, and when he got there it was too hard. Seeing Jacen and Tahiri in the same room had brought too many unpleasant thoughts to his head. Uncle Luke hadn't shown, he didn't blame him, but it did disappoint him. His Uncle was spending so much time in his apartment, the only real time Anakin was able to get him out of it was for training and practice. Even then it was right back to said apartment. It was tiring really. So the fact that he hadn't shown to dinner was even more so. It meant once again Luke was probably being emo on his own and inside. It also meant he had no Uncle buffer to ward the awkward family get together.
This one would be better. He was determined. It was just his brother and sister. There was going to be food and it was going to be pleasant. He was going to be pleasant. He had spent so much time until the recent month being upset or angry because of past events, and he was determined to get out of that funk. He had been doing rather well at it as well save for the Cade issues, and the dinner. He was starting to talk on the boards again and generally be active. The key was to stop thinking about dying. It was a difficult thing to get over, but he'd spent enough time dealing with it already. He wanted to move on. He wanted to have a family again and not think about the things that happened at home.
Kansas was different. He was alive, Jacen was getting better, Jaina was..well she still felt gray to him, but that was better then what he had originally felt off her in the beginning. He could work with gray. He had Leia and Han even though they were still young, he had a lot going on for him. He should have been happy. Unfortunately it wasn't as easy as it sounded. But he was working at it. This dinner was going to be the first step of many to come. Anakin had knocked at the door and when she answered, he even made with the obligatory little brother hugs. It was almost like a brand new Anakin.
