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."

"Change, what do you mean by 'change'?" That sounded ominous.

Azula froze, fail? Azula fail? No way in seven hells. Azula never failed. There were setbacks but no failures. "I. Don't. Fail."

"I never said you did," she said reasonably, "but you might if you didn't do the assignment."

Maron reviewed her words at the question. "Maybe not change," she conceded, "though who knows if they'll cry and you have to switch their clothing about anyway?"

"Switch their clothing? We have to change their clothing? Their dirty clothing?" Order Azula to mount a campaign to conquer the North Pole and she'll do it without question, have her look at wounds and she won't flinch, tell her that she has to change someone else's dirty clothing? "How is this even ethics?"

Oh, her brother would pay for subjecting her to this class!

"I don't know how it's ethics," she admitted. "But yes, we'd have to change their dirty clothing--it's not like the baby is old enough to do it themselves."

"It's what servants are for!" She argued. "How long are we going to keep this monstrosity?"

"Most people don't have servants," she pointed out. "So this is teaching responsibility on a level that most of the class might understand. And we're supposed to keep him for two weeks."

"Two weeks? You mean for fourteen days?"

Someone was starting to sound hysterical. Azula tried to keep it off her voice because it might just get her sent back into an asylum. Not that she'd know what it took to be sent into one.

"Fourteen days," Maron repeated, frowning slightly at Azula. "Are you alright?"

"Of course," she answered quickly. "We should work out a schedule then, Kusakabe."
