The goat was back in the classroom. As were a number of smaller goats. But don't worry, being small didn't make them any less creepy. Because these were moving. And were gift-wrapped.

Anakin hadn't crawled up on to the desk at the front of the classroom but his expression said that he really, really wanted to. "Today we're talking about gift giving. Again."

"Like how if you're giving gifts, you should make sure there's enough for everyone!" Thanks, Aphra, I'm sure the class appreciated that.

"If you don't take your goat, I will personally ensure it gets delivered to your dorm room," Anakin threatened.

These teachers truly embraced the holiday spirit! "But today we will also talk about ways to...be appreciative for a gift that you might not have wanted."

At all. Ever.

"Good thing you have these awesome ones to practice with. " It was entirely possible Aphra did in fact think these were awesome gifts. Be afraid.

"Yes," Anakin said, shifting away from one of the goats that was getting too close. "How fortunate."

Aphra was a terrible person who grinned broadly at that. "I know, right?"

Avoid the gift wrapped goats!

Just kidding, you can't avoid the gift-wrapped goats.

Roleplay!

Pair up (or wait for Anakin or Aphra!) and practice your most sincere thank you for a gift you probably didn't want.

Sidon....actually didn't think goats were a terribly bad present in general; he came from a place where a goat could be a very useful gift, actually, though not necessary what one would consider for a Zora. And he wasn't about to give anyone here a goat, not that he could think of, and at the present, he was mostly just...a bit bewildered.

"I'm so sorry," he said, making haste in unwrapping his goat because it just seemed a little bit weird and cruel to have made the attempt to wrap them in the first place, "I'm a bit confused. Are we actually keeping these goats," and his, it should be noted, had very quickly been cradled in his arm like some sort of cat or dog as he spoke, "or are they merely for the express purposes of giving us inspiration for showing our appreciation for a gift?"

Talk to Anakin or Aphra

Anakin is still avoiding the goats.

Aphra loved you all and wanted you to have a terrifying goat droid of your very own.

Except Anakin. He got two.
