Ethics, Wednesday, October 23, 2019

[sith_happened]

Anakin still had a cold, which had left him stuffed up and now without a voice.

"Hello, class," he croaked. "Heard there were island-wide nightmares two nights ago." Thank you, Nina radio! "Presumably that led to a lot of awkward moments where you and your roommate are both up and pretending to be fine. Today we're going to pair up and work our way through the ethical way to offer comfort without prying too hard and realizing your rommate's biggest nightmare is about me wearing a giant purple hat and a tutu or something."

He paused. "If I'm not making a lot of sense, blame the Dayquil."

A lot of the time this class brought up stuff Sabine did not want to talk about.

So that made this assignment kind of perfect.

Nina sidled on over to Sabine.

"We can, like, talk about how cute the tiny pumpkins are?????????????????" she offered.

"I do actually like the pumpkins," Sabine agreed. "I don't know how helpful they'll be..."

"I mean, like, we are trying to avoid being too conspicuously helpful," Nina said, holding up a teeny, tiny pumpkin that she was pretty sure had been a quarter yesterday. "But, I suppose, like, if we wanted to make them helpful to us in particular while also being distracting, we could talk about how we could paint or decorate them and see if what's bugging us is reflected in that……………..????????????????????"

Maybe she'd just glue a pumpkin to the ceiling.

"You're pandering directly to me with that suggestion," Sabine noted. "I approve."

Nina grinned at her.

"I mean, like, that is how to check in on people, isn't it??????????????"

"Sure. You can tell all sorts of things by what someone puts out there with their art."

Not that you could tell with her, or anything. Of course not.
