Ethics, December 11, 2020

"Well, barring horrifying things happening next week--" because in Fandom, you never knew, "--you will have your Ethics exam on Friday. As I said in the beginning, I'm only interested in your thought processes regarding the questions I ask you, not if it's the answer I myself would give."

He leaned back against his desk and it didn't spew candy canes or anything, which was a little strange this far into December, but Anakin ignored it. "Since you cannot really study for the exam, I thought we'd discuss a bit of what we'd seen on our school field trip on Wednesday. We helped out at a food bank, then shopped for children who weren't going to get gifts in this season of giving. Do you have a similar holiday in your own galaxies, and if so, is charitable giving a part of it? Why or why not?"

"We had Christmas once, when I was very very little, maybe about six or so?" Illyana answered. "I don't remember much, but I think it was more about family than anything charitable for outsiders."

"But I didn't really grow up with anything like that."

Anakin nodded. "Do you like the idea of it or no?"

'Yana tilted her head, thinking about it. "It's weird," she admitted. "I'm not opposed to it, but shouldn't it be a year-round thing? Not just because of a holiday?"

That was not the fact that Illyana was a fundamentally good person peeking out from under the trauma teenage sarcasm. Shut up.

"Well, it should be," Anakin agreed, "but at least some people remember once a year?"
