Practical Diplomacy

Anakin was from the desert and while he'd married a peppy New Englander, he was Not at All Peppy about the the weather.

Which was why he still had his hood up as he stood glowering at the class. "Right," he said. "Sometimes you get assigned to a place where the weather is stupid. Either it rains constantly, or it's too hot, or it's snowy and practically April--you have to learn to adapt."

Or whine. Anakin prefered to whine. Think of it as part of his glorious Skywalker heritage.

He gestured at a variety of clothing on racks. "For the Jedi, it's easy. We wear robes on every planet, whether we're sweating to death or not. But for diplomats without a set uniform, you have to pack more carefully. Today, you are going away from your capital for a month. You can only pack one bag and have to prepare for all weathers and a variety of receptions, boring meetings, and potentially fleeing for your life. because your government is not terribly organized. Pick your outfits and explain why you chose them. Make sure to have at least one pair of sensible shoes."
