Ethics, Friday, December 4, 2020
So Anakin had gotten a shower full of eggnog today, so he hair wasn't glitty, but it was definitely deeply conditioned and the weirdness was on his mind.
"Good mornng, everyone," he began, "and for you new students, welcome to Fandom Advent where weird, winter-holiday themed things will be sprung on you throughout the month of December. We could argue about the ethics of things happening to you without your consent but...well, arguing against an island seems like an enormous waste of time, and locking yourself in your room until it all goes away seems fairly pointless as well. So. How do you learn to be resisilient in the face of such aggressive whimsy? Do you take it in good humor or complain the entire time? Does it matter what the event is? Is mistletoe annoying and polar bears with soda fine? Where is your line?"
