Ethics (Thursday, September 28, 6th period)

Vader swept into the room precisely on time, slamming the door hard enough to reverberate down the hallway. He dropped a box of cookies onto his desk.

"Today we talk about how a strict sense of right and wrong interferes in efficiency," he said, pacing the room and clearly intending to intimidate as many students as possible. "Employees who do not believe that there will be consequences for their incompetence become lazy, stupid, and easily replaceable."

Vader took the box of cookies from his desk and passed it around the room. "Each of you has a cookie," he said. "You will spend the rest of the class period using the tactics of fear, shame and guilt to get the other people in this classroom to give you their cookies." And yes, that word sounded incredibly strange coming from him. "Whoever has the most cookies at the end of the class will get to keep them."

He crossed his arms over his chest. "Are these tactics unethical? Does it matter if you get what you want?"

Bel crossed his arms and scowled. This was dumb. All he had to do was grab cookies and shimmer, no problem. But then he'd have a lot of people pissed off at him.

So instead he shimmered to town and bought a bag of cookies of his own, then shimmered back to class. There. He didn't need their cookies now.

Tyler looked at Bel out of the corner of his eye. "INteresting approach to the assignment."
demonbelthazor: (Bright)

Bel grinned. "It works. That way I don't have to rely on anybody else."

"Mmm," Tyler said thoughtfully. "But it was also the easy way. Like, if I were to get you to give me a cookie, I'd be taking a risk. Using your powers is playing it a little safe for you."
demonbelthazor: (Belthazor)

Bel shrugged. "Well, I could just take them from everyone," he said. "Would you prefer that?"

"Not especially," Tyler said. "Just pointing out you took the easy way." He scratched his chin. "Now, if you gave me a cookie and then tried to get it back, that could prove something."
demonbelthazor: (Bitch please)

"Like I'm gonna fall for that?" Bel said.

"You might be dumb enough," Tyler said honestly.
demonbelthazor: (*glare*)

Bel glared. "I am not!"

Isabel made very sad eyes at Bel. "Give me a cookie?"
demonbelthazor: (Crossed arms)

Re: Gimme your cookies!

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-09-28 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Bel made a face. "I'm not falling for it."

"But please?" she asked as her lower lip started to quiver.
demonbelthazor: (Hand on knee)

"Don't even start to cheat like that," Bel said, looking away.

Re: Gimme your cookies!

"I'm not cheating," Isabel said quietly as she rested a hand on his arm. If Bel turned to look, he'd see that her eyes were shiny with tears.
demonbelthazor: (Make the voices stop!)

Re: Gimme your cookies!

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-09-28 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Bel squeezed his eyes shut. "I'm not looking, I'm not looking," he chanted. His best defense to tears would to be an asshole. However, it was Isabel, and he didn't want to do that to her.

Isabel sniffed delicately.
demonbelthazor: (Uh huh....)

Re: Gimme your cookies!

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-09-28 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
He cracked one eye open. "What's in it for me?" he asked.

River stared at Bel, and tried to look as unstable as possible.

"Forget about it," Bel said.

"Give me cookies or I'll murder your plants," River tried.

"Give me your cookie or I'll set your ass on fire," Bel said.

"I don't burn. Side effect of being a victim of experiments." Ok, so that was a lie. "Give me your cookie or I'll tell Phoebe about your thoughts."

"And then I kill you," Bel said pleasantly. "Have a nice day."

Ok. That had been going too far. She tried smiling sweetly. "See? I didn't mind read you? If I had I would have known not to say that."
demonbelthazor: (*glare*)

"So now you know better," Bel said. "I've warned you to keep out of my head. "So joking about it? Not a good plan."
