Ethics, Wednesday, September 18, 2019

[sith_happened]

Anakin was nowhere to be seen when Ethics class began, but there was an enormous bowl of (real, this time) Halloween candy on his desk.

There was a sign next to it that said, "TAKE ONLY THREE."

Inside the bowl were full-sized candy bars, as well as smaller "fun-sized" ones, Reese's Cups, Starbursts, those weird Bit o' Honeys, and even apples and boxes of raisins.

Was there a trick here today too?

Oh, probably. Pick your treats anyway.

Take your treats!

[sith_happened]

Do you take the first three you reach in and touch? Do you take the three biggest? All of the Reese's Cups (you monster?!) Do you just take as many as you think you can get away with?

Eleanor just grabbed a handful and sat down and started to eat the candy. Any bit of honey got chucked back at the bowl.

All in all she got about five pieces of random candy.

Sabine took three pieces of the fun sized candies. And she wasn't eating any of it.

She trusted none of it. Noooone.

Tisarwat's first impulse was to go for the one that she could easily recognize as actual food, the apples, but here there was a bunch of food in a bowl that everyone's ungloved hands were going ot be going into, and the fruit was the one thing that wasn't wrapped up again such vile impllications. And all of it was incredibly foreign to her, so she didn't really know what was even the better ones to go for.

So she figured she'd try for a variety: one of the bigger ones, one of the smaller ones, and one in a tube that looked like some sort of pills. That seemed like it would serve well as her three choices.

Del took three Bit o Honeys.

Elisabeth took three of the raisins. Those were things she recognized and were sweet enough that she considered them a treat.

...She needed more exposure to modern candy, clearly.

Okuyasu fished through and grabbed three full size bars. Hey, he was following the letter of what was instructed.

Nina took a box of raisins, an apple, and a full-sized candy bar, feeling like that made the most balanced sort of three that she could accomplish.

She wasn't against sugar, after all, just sugar for breakfast.

Grog watched the others and tried to figure out what the sign said based on what they were doing, and in the end, he decided to just copy Nina and grab the same three items she had. One thing of each size seemed like the right move.

Keyleth did take exactly three, yes: one box of raisins, a red Starburst, and an apple.

Illyana grabbed two apples and a full-size Reese's. She wasn't going to eat any of it, though, until she got back to her room, because it was probably some kind of trick.

Lana had no idea what most of these were, so she took one large one at random (a Kit Kat), then two of the medium-sized ones (a Reese's cup and a mini Mounds), and sat back down.

Nell looked at it curiously, but didn't take any. She was still a bit leery in these classes.

Evie was still not really a candy person.

She took three of the Reese's Cups and left them on her desk in case anyone wanted more.
