When the students arrived in class today, they'd find black and white striped shirts waiting for them, along with berets and white face paint.

Time to become mimes, kids! Aren't you excited?! Show it through action!

"Pantomime is an ancient artform dating back millennia on this planet and can be found throughout the universe, though the striped shirt part is mostly just Earth," Anakin began. "It's about conveying emotion or some kind of action without words. Today you will all get dressed as mimes--your first time working with makeup in this class--and then act out a scenario I will give you."

So these should be nice and normal.

"You have fifteen minutes to prepare."

"I guess you just have a narrow view of what a mime is," Vi said, because there was no situation she could not make worse with her smart mouth. "You should probably work on that."

Anakin arched up an eyebrow. "Really. Please enlighten me with your expertise."

Rolling her shoulders, Vi shrugged off her jacket dramatically, and made a gesture that, while far from the most offence and obscene she'd ever made, was a surefire way to take a situation from tense to brawl.

She raised her eyebrows back at Anakin.

Anakin snorted. "Does mime involve a lot of fistfights in your world?"

Anyone who walked into the undercity wearing that get up better hope they knew how to use their fists. "World's a dangerous place "

"Especially for mimes," Anakin said, nodding.

"Exactly."
