Ethics [Thursday, March 20}

[sith_happened]

Today Anakin's desk was covered with droid babies in bassinets.

Each baby had a tiny stuffed Ewok tucked next to it. Shh.

"Today we talk about lust," Anakin said. "Or rather, the unintended consequences that can happen when you take action without precautions."

He smiled. "Meet your little projects for the next week. They're heavy, they cry, and they will record everything you do with them. So if you stuff them into a closet for a week, believe me, I'll know."

He reached for a list of paper. "Some of you I've paired together, some of you are single parents." His smile turned a little evil. "Some of your babies are a little fussier than others."

He was a petty, petty man.

"I don't know how to break this to you," Jenny said, "but I'm the absentee parent type."

"You're not seriously sticking me with this thing all week," Rikku said, eyes wide.

"Also, I smoke. All the time," Jenny continued as if Rikku hadn't spoken. "And that would be bad for the baby."

"You have no idea how much I hate you right now," she said, continuing the head-meet-desk theme of earlier. "None. And Reno's gonna kill you."

"No, Reno likes me," Jenny said blithely. "And he already knows he can't touch me."

Rikku looked up with a raised eyebrow. "He doesn't need to touch you to shoot you," she said dryly. "And if you keep him from getting sex all week, he might."

Jenny was completely unmoved. "He still has a right hand, and you can still have sex with the baby in the room, it won't care," she informed Rikku. "Anyway, I've been shot before, and if he shoots me, he has to do radio alone. Forever."

"I'll care," Rikku said. "And you really think radio outweighs sex?"

She beat her head on the desk a few more times.

"I hate this class so much right now. Okay. Fine. I'll take the baby. But I'm so telling him you bailed on this."

Because ... somehow, Jenny would care.

"Fine, tell him," Jenny said, completely unconcerned. "Have fun raising our child."
