Student Assembly, Wednesday afternoon, September 9, 2020

[sith_happened]

Well, there wasn't an obstacle course this week, so things were looking up, right, students? Maybe? A little?

Anakin made his way to the front of the stage, holding out a piece of paper he'd received from the office. "Today we have some very special guests," he began, "so everyone shut up and listen to them, right? We have--" he read from the paper, "--Mikhail Robespierre and Janet, presenting about moral philosophy. Ethics students, I very much expect you to be paying attention."

Mikhail was not expecting this. "Um. No. You see in the thought experiment-"

But the car was now completely stopped just inches away from hitting the five bears.

"Oh. Okay then. Ah. But what would have happened if you couldn't stop the trolley?" Mikhail asked trying in a vain way to get this whole thing back on track.

Yes. I'm punning in narrative. Deal with it.

Given Adora's particular emotional traumas, if Mikhail had kept it as a thought experiment he probably could have induced a complete existential crisis. But alas, he'd given her a way to throw herself on the grenade.

Adora reached down and scooped up all the bears, which was easy enough to do, given they were teddy bears and she was still She-Ra, then moved them out of the way of the trolley. "That. Only faster."

Janet's grin never left her face however Mikhail was slowly opening his mouth and closing it again because he was at a loss for words.

"Very good!" he finally decided. "Everyone, please give a round of applause for the very tall glowing person!"
