You know what was a difficult class to do after a week like that? A class about games, especially when one of your teachers was used as a battery for the week and was still looking a little worse for way, sitting down in a chair instead of stalking around for maximum cape drama.

They'd held the class outside with a mat out with a circle drawn in the middle because the weather, at least, was nice. The inflatable sumo suits were different, though.

"We thought maybe the best option today would be to hit things," Aeryn began.

"I'm not allowed to hit things yet," Anakin said, sounded decidedly sulky about it, "but I am also not dead, and I thought you might like to see that in person." He waved over at the circle. "But...sumo things. It's a safe way to beat each other up as long as you don't aim for the face, which would be rude and unsportsmanlike and absolutely encouraged if you ever see the Toymaker again."

"And if you could do that before he does anything, that would be great," Aeryn said. "The rules are, you put on a suit. You pair up with someone, get in the ring, and whoever gets pushed out of the ring loses."

Anakin gave Sidon a little grin. "Give your opponent a fighting chance, okay?" he added.
