How to Make Friends and Influence People [Tuesday, April 22, 2014]

If you thought you were getting out of Anakin Kriffing Skywalker's class without an examination, you were sadly, sadly mistaken. "There are four essay questions," he said, passing out the papers, "and then one practical examination question. Please don't hurt yourself too badly. I don't want to have to explain it to your parents, and the paperwork for this sort of thing is completely ridiculous."

He glanced up when he was finished passing everything out. "You have been an adequate group of students when you bother to listen. You will probably not die horribly."

...and thank you, Anakin.

"I'm curious if you would be feeding me to this 'rancor' beast raw, or preparing me somehow, first. You know, it's terribly irresponsible to feed a live meal to any pet. It might get hurt."

Well. There was a little bravado she hadn't been aware she had. But when large, unpleasant things jumped straight to making threats, she had little patience for them at all.

"The money owed must have slipped my notice. If you'll allow me to send word back to Arendelle, I can pay you as much, with interest."
