Office hours [all day]

[sith_happened]

After checking his office to make sure Ferus wasn't hiding in a closet or under his desk or something equally inane, Anakin flopped into his chair, consulted his notes briefly so he could remember which students he'd taught when, and waited for the first person to walk through the open into his office.

They couldn't have the coffee in his hands, by the way. Anakin needed that so he didn't tell everyone what he really thought.

[OOC: Up early so I don't forget. Off to Rennfest tomorrow, but should be back by midafternoon. SP=love!]

"Best to let your students discover their ethical values on their own, as they pertain to their personal situation, as opposed to telling them what those values ought to be," Tseng noted. There was a very subtle hint of something that resembled approval in his voice, at least. "A fitting approach, when your students already believe that they know everything."

They were high schoolers. Of course they did.

"Exactly," Anakin said, rolling his eyes. "They'll learn when they hit the real world that they aren't nearly as experienced as they believe themselves to be. But in my class, they'll have at least thought about a decision before they make it blindly."

"Well then, I hope for the sake of the students," and Rosalind in particular, of course, "that you continue to provoke a good many thoughts as the semester progresses."

Because, as was his experience with Rosalind, she tended to make those very ethical sorts of decisions... that landed her in very hot water time and again.

"They don't tend to thank me for them, but if they aren't squirming by the end of the discussions, it means I haven't pushed them past what they were comfortable with," Anakin replied. "I'll keep an eye out for Rosalind, too."

"I would appreciate that," Tseng replied, offering Anakin a small, businesslike nod of his head. "And I thank you for your time."

"You have been the least irritating visit so far," Anakin replied, smiling. "Stop by again any time."
