Ethics [Thursday, November 19, 1st period]

[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 two weeks. They're heavy, they cry, and they will record everything you do with them. So if you stuff them into a closet for the duration, believe me, I'll know."

After all, he'd built all of them.

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."

Jonas wasn't so sure but she seemed to know what she was doing so he found himself watching intently, memorizing, putting those things together with how he'd cared for Gabe.

"Do these type of...machines not have mothers or fathers?" Jonas wondered.

"I think, at least for two weeks, that's our job. To be her mother and father," Ellie replied, blinking at just how strange that sounded. "So, um, do you have anything in mind for a name?"

"No, I'm sorry," he said, shaking his head and peering the droid. Baby. Thing. "I've never named anything before."

"I haven't either," Ellie admitted. And there weren't any female relatives she could think of to name it after. Then a thought occurred to her. "How do you feel about Sarah?"

"Sarah's..." Jonas trailed off, actually thinking about it. He was fairly certain he didn't know any Sarah's but he had heard the name before and found it easy to say and simple to understand. "Sarah's a good name. Does it have personal meaning?"

"There was a teacher I had over the summer who said I would know a version of her in my future." Oddly, that didn't even sound weird to say anymore. "Her name was Sarah. She was pretty cool."
