COMBINED CLASS: Ethics and Science of Sexuality [March 31, 2011, 1st period]

[sith_happened]

A visibly annoyed Anakin was at the front of the classroom of both normal students and those in the Science of Sexuality, who'd been handwavily, yay! asked to arrive as well, trying not to catch Holmes or Watson's eyes. The droid in his arms was wailing loudly. Really, this was far too irritating. And not his fault.

...somehow.

"I'm not certain if it's spread to all of your assignments yet," he said, "but I went into my office and was greeted by a closet full of droids that won't stop crying. We are trying to teach you all lessons about the responsibility of children who don't disappear after a weekend, ones who can't talk to you and tell you what they need, but we aren't trying to drive the entire dormitory around the bend. Please return the droids to me and I will figure out where their programming has gone faulty. I'm sure the island is to blame for this somehow."

Because Anakin didn't get programming wrong, okay? Ever. And so he was just a little oversensitive about this going south. Or a lot sensitive.

"Tell us what you've learned over the last few days," he concluded. "Ethics students in particular: was this a good way to learn the consequences of lust?"

"You seem better," Anakin observed. "Is that why you missed class?"

"It is," Rinoa said, her eyes lighting up. "She's gone. She's dead. It's over, and --"

She bit her lip. "I don't think I should be happy someone's dead," she said, because this was Ethics and all, "but I don't think I care, either."

Ultimecia had not been the type to make friends.

Anakin snorted. "I've been happy when someone's died before," he said. "Some people don't deserve life."

No one said he was extremely good ethics teacher?

"She tried to end time," Rinoa said. "She was absorbing it into herself. So we killed her. And ... and she's gone."

Her head was blessedly free of outside influence. Her shields were awesome right now. She needed a lot more sleep, but she felt amazing nonetheless.

"I ... I wanted to thank you," she said. "I would have never lasted that long without your help. I don't think I could have even fought her off in the first place, a month ago."

The last time Ultimecia had possessed her, it hadn't been a fight.

"You're welcome," Anakin said, sounding a little stunned. "Who was 'we'?"

"Squall," she said. "Jono, Raven, Tara, and Sookie. We thought there was a plan, but there wasn't. I mean, it sucked. It was a crazy guy being all ... dangerous. And then I kind of ... almost lost it, and we found a new plan."

She was not particularly proud of nearly losing it. Or of letting Ultimecia talk her into the new plan. That seemed kind of ... not good.

Anakin reached up to rub the bridge of his nose. "One of these days I'm going to have to work in a lesson about making sure your plans actually work," he grumbled. "Is everyone else all right as well?"
