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."

"Well, chances are you would die a horrible and grisly death," Janet replied. "Unless you happen to have super-powers which apparently most people on this island do."

"Still, this is supposed to be a thought exercise but sacrificing yourself is a noble thing to do," Mikhail added.

"Right, but if I die, does it save them? Or did I sacrifice myself for nothing?" Again.

Did Mikhail look impressed by the young man? He did indeed.

"I would say for the sake of the thought exercise that yes, your sacrifice made a difference and saved the teddy bears."

"Great!" He smiled at Mikhail. "The teddy bears - they're not going to be thrown out, are they?" He couldn't hypothetically save them and just abandon them to their fate, could he?
