How To Say Hello...
Let's see if I can write something a little less, eh, dramatic...

I've wondered about some of the first meetings in The Phantom Menace. What if Anakin knew his destiny? His hellos would probably go a little something like this...

Anakin meets Obi-Wan on Amidala's ship...

Qui-Gon Jinn: This is my apprentice, Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Anakin: Hello, Obi-Wan Kenobi. I really look forward to having my arm and legs sliced off by you on the lava planet of Mustafar after I betray you and destroy everything you stand for. Oh, and my apologies in advance for cutting you down in a galactic Imperial space station.
Obi-Wan: Whuh?

Anakin encounters Palpatine on Coruscant...

Anakin: I kind of hope you have a good reason, sir, for ruining my life and condemning me to two decades of misery in a life-support suit. Any idea why I might toss you into the Death Star reactor shaft while you torture my son with Sith lightning?
Palpatine: ... What's your name again?

Anakin meets Padme at Watto's.

Anakin: Are you an angel? You must be if I'm going to risk expulsion from the Jedi Order and sell my soul to the Dark Lord of the Sith because I'm madly in love with you. We must have some marital problems coming up if I'm supposed to choke you half to death on a Mustafar landing platform.
Padme: Oh, uh, I prefer boys my own age...
