Philosophy classroom: Ethics class #4, Monday, 2-4pm

[brambless.livejournal.com]

"Today's topic is power and responsibility, and I would like to remind you all that your grade comes from your discussion, not your presence. If you don't feel comfortable talking, write something down and hand it in to me. Being a silent warm body in the classroom is no different than not turning up."

[ooc: And I would remind you that I leave posts open for the whole week. If you post 'shows up and takes a seat' I know you're still alive, but you need to actually address the discussion topics to pass the class.]

Xander winces. "She kind of flipped out and joined the bad guys, at least for a while. If she hadn't... I dunno. I think they were gonna get her some kind of hearing or therapy or something. She didn't do it on purpose, and everybody knew that, but... I guess she didn't trust anybody to help."

"That's... so sad," Shane says quietly. Something about the story clicks in her mind and she blinks and looks over at Xander. "Faith," she whispers, arching her eyebrows just slightly as she gives Xander a questioning look.

Xander blinks, then nods. "Well, not this Faith; this one's from another timeline; I couldn't tell you for sure if exactly the same things happened to her or not. I have a feeling it wasn't too different, though; she told me she's on 'good behavior' these days."

Shane nods. "I -- we talked... one night," she says with a slight shrug, giving him an almost apologetic look. "She was ... pretty drunk. Some stuff slipped out that kinda wasn't supposed to, I think."

"So yeah," Xander says, nodding, but not really touching the subject of what Faith -- any Faith -- might be likely to confess when drunk, "I guess there's times when you could be wrong about rescuing somebody or killing the bad guy, or at least need to be careful about it and check things out first."

"Yeah...no arguments, there," Shane says simply.
