Around the World in Sixteen Challenges
Today's class met outside the gates of a castle. The air smelled faintly of livestock. Is everyone worried yet?
"Welcome to Italy," Anakin said with a fiendish grin. "Today will be your first paired challenge. You will participate in the Palio della Tonna."
And no, he would not be translating what that meant. Neither would Obi-Wan, for that matter.
"After that, you may become acquainted with some of the traditional foods of the region," Obi-Wan said. "You will do this individually, and the final race will be an individual event as well. However, proper teamwork in the Palio della Tonna will be instrumental in giving you a good lead on your competitors, so please, try not to sabotage one another."
"Or hurt the livestock," Anakin added. "Master Unwin might be an excellent partner for this task, given his newly acquired detention expertise."
Did Obi-Wan just very loudly clear his throat? No, obviously not. "Finally, one will find us at the top of the Basilica," he said, "We will provide climbing gear, of course." Because Anakin was still entirely too obsessed with Laura's judgement. Sigh.

Re: Palio Della Tonna!
Isabela, no, you already had Cassandra plotting to murder you, you didn't need to annoy a Jedi too.

Long pause.
"Neither will these donkeys."
It was worth a try.
Re: Palio Della Tonna!
Because it was totally an appropriate time for dick jokes.

Hope you liked the mental image of lubed-up eopies, Anakin.
