Ethics [Thursday, October 1, 1st period]

When the Ethics class arrived in the Danger Shop, they stepped into an entirely different world.

An incredibly dry, hot one. That smelled really bad.

Anakin waved his hand around the room. "Welcome to the embodiment of gluttony," he said, "the palace of a Hutt."

He concentrated on the controls on the far side of the room, and the simulation sprung to life: dozens of beings drinking, eating, and dancing, with all activity centered around a vile slug of a beast laying on the raised dais at the front of the room.

In a place of honor on the wall was a man, face twisted in a silent scream but his features obscured beyond recognition, encased in silver. Anakin ignored it as he walked past to point at the creature on the dais. "That," he said, nose wrinkling in disgust, "is a Hutt. This particular version was named Jabba, one of the most powerful crime lords in the galaxy." A grim smile turned the corners of his mouth up. "At least until he met my children."

He shook his head. "That is neither here nor there. Today is an interactive experience for you, class. Take a good hard look around. See the effects that gluttony can have."

His eyes went flat. "Touch any of the dancing girls and you'll regret it. That's a promise."

Raven had little interest in Jabba or the drinking or dancing, though the display of blatant gluttony sent a strange shiver down her spine. She was, however, drawn to the man on the wall. Laying her hand upon the substance that coated him, she wondered what had happened to him.

Raven was there, but being all avoidy of the drinking and the dancing and the gross slug. Eww.

The look on Katchoo's face as she wandered around was . . . "distasteful" didn't begin to cover it. Put all the strange beings into human shapes, swap out the horrible smell for the reek of alcohol and illicit substances, and it was almost exactly like one of Darcy's parties. Even the guy on the wall -- that had been the same, in spirit, as the rolls of film they'd used to take of high-profile figures in flagrante delicto.

No way in hell was she going to screw with one of the dancing girls, but if anyone else tried . . . they were just lucky she was two days from getting shot in the liver and not about to hurt them.

"...Anyone else want a sandwich?" Hayley said, walking up to look at the display as well. "Or a hot dog. Hot dog sandwich?"

She shook her head. "That's just crazy."

Katchoo did actually mean to explain her absence from last week, but she had to ask first.

"So what did your kids do to him, anyway?" she asked, in the tone of voice that implied that no matter how bad it was, he probably deserved it.

"How can you think of food in a place like this?" Raven said. She skimmed her hand over the silvery substance. The man seemed to be intact, from what she could see, and appeared to be human -- two of everything there was supposed to be two of, and one of those that there were not.

"Well, not gonna eat anything here," Hayley said. "The floors are kind of dirty. Can you imagine the kitchen?"

Yes, Hayley. That's the real issue.

Raven caught sight of Katchoo and remembered her promise to Merlin. She approached the other girl and greeted her. "Good morning, Katchoo," she said. "Are you well?" At the same time, she reached out with her empathy to ascertain Katchoo's condition.

"...I would prefer not to imagine that," Raven said.

Ellie was horrified at what she saw here. Too horrified to properly put it into words.
