"Depending on how you came into the classroom today," Anakin said, "you are passionately in favor of ordering either Chinese food or pizza for lunch right now. Your jobs today are twofold: get the other half of the class to agree with you on either your cuisine of choice or a compromise food, and then ordering and geting everyone to pay for their order."

He checked his watch. "And you only have ten minutes to do it."

Anakin was a big fan of practical applications of diplomacy. "You may begin...now."

Chinese food?

Pizza?

Elsa was aware that she had to argue in favor of the first, but she had a sinking feeling that she wasn't going to be able to do much arguing at all, considering the fact that she had no idea what either of those things were.

Well... diplomats had to be skilled in the art of improvisation as well, she supposed.
