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.

Karal saw it, even if he wished he hadn't. "I'm sorry," he said quietly. "I forget." He folded his hands in his lap. "I should probably go. There will be some work to do to make Edgar comfortable."

"No reason to apologize," Anakin said. "And Edgar will behave like any normal baby--just keep her fed, warm, and dry and you'll do fine."

"I spent Trenor's first two years doing all those things. I think Edgar and I will do all right." He stood, but paused before leaving. "Thank you, again. I don't have the words to say how much it means to know I'm not trying to do this on my own."

Anakin smiled. "It's what I'm here for."

Karal gave him another shy smile and a quick nod, and slipped out of the office.
