Ethics, Monday, November 27, 2017
"Right," Anakin said, "it's almost December, which means that the island will soon be forcing us to bathe in eggnog and wear stupid hats, so before that starts, let's have a quick discussion about ethics in holiday shopping, and in general dealing with your fellow living beings under rather stressful situations. And why it's still not okay to take a parking space when you see me waiting there with my blinker on."
Anakin had had a tough weekend.
"Today's lesson is simple," Obi-Wan said, straight-faced and dry-voiced. "This is Anakin. Do not be Anakin."
Anakin shot him a sour look, then reached out to poke him in the side. "I've gotten much better."
...that was not an endorsement, really.
"Don't be rude. Don't turn it into a competition. If you cannot get the item that you wished for, buy something else. Do not start a fist fight."
Ahem.
"Don't get into a fight with the Mall Santa about how his sleigh doesn't obey basic rules of aerodynamics," Anakin added in an undertone. "Right. We're in the Danger Shop, so we've set each of these scenarios up as live-action demonstrations in patience. If you do everything well, you are rewarded with a overly expensive coffee drink of your choice."
"Or a soft drink, if you prefer," Obi-Wan added gently. "Good luck."
