Anakin didn’t need an escort. In his eyes, he was a perfectly capable jedi, and he could complete any mission, whenever the council was willing to throw him a bone.

He slowly glances your way.
“..Okay. Maybe it’s broken.” He admitted through his teeth. “But it wasn’t my fault.”
The situation was growing bleaker by the moment.
