Yo, my dudes. Yes, it has been what feels like a decade, but never fear - I'm alive. When I say I'll update soon, don't trust me, 'kay? Now, onto some updates... Starting Anew is being thought about currently. I know my readers would rather have it being written since I haven't updated since, like, March(ish). I was afraid it was going to be too similar to The Blade of Osh-Tekk's story "A Path Less Taken" because I was gonna have our friends Anakin and Ahsoka move in together on one planet or another and stuff. So should I continue it or should I just stop writing it? Please let me know, because I have no clue as to what I should do. That seems to be about it... *checks invisible list of discussion topics* Oh yes! I've read the Ahsoka novel. It is amazing. Go read it. *tries my best to sound like Echo Gilette* 3,000 awesome points! I love her. If you want amazing videos of all sorts which are filled with humor, drawings, and red and black, go watch her. I think that's it, so onto the fic!

Obi-Wan could hear Anakin and his Padawan outside the door of the Resolute caf before they came in. Ahsoka was in a fit of giggles as Anakin placed a fabric shopping bag from the marketplace on Corellia, the planet below, on the table. The Jedi master stared at it for a second, then looked up at his former apprentice, his fingers around a cup of his favorite tea.
"And what exactly is this?" he questioned simply, motioning to the bag that was placed on the table.
"Rainbow carrots," the youngest of the two, matter-of-factly. She then proceeded to go through the bag, digging out two chocolate bars, some instant coffee, a screwdriver with a shiny blue handle, and a bag of colorful carrots. There were purple carrots with some gold circular marks in the center, light yellow carrots, gold ones, and the classic orange ones.
"Where did you come across these?" Obi-Wan asked, as he picked up the plastic carrot bag and examined the contents.
Anakin leaned on the table while Ahsoka sat down on the bench. "Well, Snips and I were at the market place down on Corellia just to pick up a few things-"
"And some extra stuff like chocolate!" Ahsoka chimed in, now happily munching on a fruit and almond chocolate bar.
"True, Snips. Anyway, we came across these carrots and figured we should try them. So we bought them."
"They do look healthy," Obi-Wan commented, placing the bag back in front of Anakin. "No genetic engineering. I do recall reading something about how carrots are naturally not orange."
"Waddaya say we try them?" Ahsoka asked, plucking the bag from Anakin's fingers and starting to open it. "They're healthy!"
"It can't hurt to try something new every once in a while," the eldest Jedi replied, picking a purple one. Anakin and Ahsoka picked two more purple ones out of the clear plastic bag labeled "rainbow carrots" as well.
"On three?" Ahsoka asked, holding her purple carrot between her fingers.
"Sounds good, Snips," Anakin replied, eyeing the purple stick of fiber.
Obi-Wan started to count down, "Three... Two... One."
The threesome bit down in unity.
"Hmm. Tasted just like a normal carrot," the Padawan of the group commented.
"It's a bit sweeter, but I agree," Obi-Wan answered her, then took a sip of his tea.
The door to the caf opened and Rex walked in casually. The group of three Jedi at the table to the far side of the room spun around. Anakin had half a purple carrot in his mouth, Ahsoka had chocolate on her upper lip, and General Kenobi was looking amused with a cup of slightly steaming tea in his hands. The clone captain eyed them for about three seconds, neither of the people he was staring at making a move, blinked, turned around, and walked back out the way he came in.
"Okay then," Ahsoka mumbled, licking the chocolate off of her lip.
"More carrots?" Anakin offered, holding out the bad.
Master Kenobi set down his tea. "It can't hurt to explore the world of colorful carrots a bit more."

Yeah, in hindsight, this was a reeeeaaaally ridiculous idea, but when my mom and I brought home "rainbow carrots" from the store, I couldn't resist writing when this idea slipped into my mind. Our favorite Jedi brOTP just like to bond over food! *shrugs* Anyways, I have to go to bed now. Aaaand I'm too lazy to edit this so I'll do it later. Nite, guys!
