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."

*No,* Karla replied, mental voice sulky. *Morton's older than me. That was the daughter of a visiting Province Queen.* And then, even sulkier, *She still doesn't like me.*

It was like Emma had pushed the Panic Button or something. *I HADN'T EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT CRAWLING.*

Maybe she could just keep the child afloat with Craft then entire time. Hell's fire, using phantom hands, she could probably even feed it and change it, therefore never having to touch it. Karla kind of assumed that she'd end up breaking it by brushing up against it or something.

*There have to be people we can pay to take care of these children for us.*

Great, now Emma was thinking about babies that walked and ran and got out and...

...she really hated this class.

< I'm sure it will be fine, > she soothed. < We can always go into the City for the weekend, and hire a nanny. That's what they're there for. >
