Ethics [Thursday, December 13, 1st period]

"I trust you all completed your childcare assignments to my satisfaction," Anakin said from his position behind his desk.

Why yes, he was going to blow right past the part where he'd been an action figure last week.

"Today you will tell me--in detail--what you learned from your experiences with parenthood. Next week will be your final exam. I'll try not to kill you."

He could be joking. With Anakin it was really hard to tell.

"Did you really think I was serious?" Kabuto looked vaguely affronted. "I wouldn't do that. And considering we live across the hall from each other, you always could have knocked. I was just studying. We have finals coming up, afterall." He was a very practiced liar, though there was enough truth in there. Kabuto wouldn't have taken the droid apart...but only because he didn't know enough about mechanics to put it back together again.

"It's your responsibility as a father to make an effort to be in your child's life," Anakin lectured. "Even a droid child for a class assignment. And taking them apart isn't a way to get on the mother's good side."

You know what? Ino just about loved Master Skywalker right about now.

Ino looked smug. Take that, Kabuto!

Kabuto bowed slightly. "My apologies, Master Skywalker. If there's a next time, I'll be sure to make more of an effort even if my partner does not." He was being much more humble than Ino, at the moment. "She did do a very good job, however. I think Ino-san would make a very good mother."

"Uh-huh," Anakin said, not exactly buying the humility. "Ino, what did you learn from your time as a mother?"

"That you've got to pay a lot of attention to them, so babies totally eat into your socializing time. Which made things boring." Ino said, "And Kabu-chan didn't like being around loud noises at all, so I had to work on my volume." Because she was naturally fairly loud, and Kabu-chan really hadn't liked her yelling at him.

Kabuto bit his tongue on a comment about Ino being loud, and politely bowed out of the conversation - at least for the time being.

"Good," Anakin said, smiling at Ino. "I'm glad you got something out of the experience. Other than, I'm hoping, the urge not to repeat it for quite some time."

"I assure you," Ino told him, "that I have no plans whatsoever to have kids for, like, the next decade. Even if Kabu-chan was sweet in a baby droid kind of way."
