Ethics, Tuesday, February 10, 2015, 2nd period
Do you hear the sound of mechanized screaming, kids? Do you have a bad feeling about this?
Good. It's terrifying robotic toddler week!
"The issue of ethics is about more than simply the greater fate of the galaxy - or your personal relationships," Obi-Wan said. He was trying not to side-eye the robotic toddlers too much; did you have to make them so creepy, Anakin? "Within our old Order, it was said that a Jedi did not truly become a Master until he had trained a younger Jedi. Caring for another is a daunting task in its own right."
It's so they don't get attached! It's very Jedi! And not all Anakin just being a jerk!
...it was about 80 percent Anakin being a jerk.
"Depending on your universe of origin, it's entirely possibly you're expected to either take care of younger siblings as a primary caregiver by now or be preparing to marry in the next five years." His lips quirked up. "And Fandom has certain...quirks...regarding Valentine's Day and children unexpectedly popping up, so think of this as preparation if small children you never met wake you up Saturday morning."
Obi-Wan's eyes darted briefly towards Anakin. "...As that is apparently a risk you take by attending this school."
HE HADN'T KNOWN.
HE DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE AWAY THE JOY THAT OJ WOULD BRING HIM.
Anakin shrugged. "It happens. They don't stick around for very long." He pointed back to the droids. "We've paired you up. You'll each get one baby for the week--they are old enough to walk, but are not yet toilet trained. They also don't like napping, but need to once a day."
They also hated baths like burning but he'd let them discover that for themselves. "Today you get to name your little darlings and figure out childcare arrangements for the week."
"Good luck," Obi-Wan said. At least the thought of the students dealing with such an ornery baby-- ah, the idea that the students would be learning something truly important, he meant, truly-- was enough to bring amusement back to his voice. "But know that if you abandon the babies, we will know."

"But I totally do. Know babies, I mean," she reached out and picked up their bundle of joy, offering fingers for it to chew on, or whatever robot-babies did to amuse themselves. "They're cute. I mean, toddlers are even cuter, but babies aren't hard. They just get frustrated easily because you don't understand what they're saying."
