Comparative Religions--Monday, Period Three, Class #10--Death Rituals

"Good morning, everyone," Vala greeted them from on top of her desk and sipped from a large cup of coffee, strangely quiet. "I'm glad to see that you made it through last week. In memory of Bart Allen and noting that many of you were extremely sick, I'd like to take it easy today. I've left some handouts about how several different religions and cultures address the issue of death. For next week, I'd like you to write a five page paper detailing the differences between them, if a religion's way of dealing with it appeals to you or offends your sensibilities, and if there is anything you would think would bring comfort to those mourning."

"On that note, I'd also like to say a brief thank you to Karal, who organized such a moving ceremony for a fellow student. You went above and beyond the call of duty."

"Now," she said, finally noticing something odd about some of the students if they were there, "would someone please tell me what's going on with you guys now?"

Just noting that Adah won't be in class today 'cause of *points to clinic* ahem.

And that making OOC comments gives me chances to use the Older!Adah Icons that Never Were.

So half the links in your post? Were highlighted because apparently I had used them to help my roommate with her research paper. *boggles*

Karal was sitting at the back of the classroom. When Vala mentioned his name, he ducked his head and became very engrossed in taking notes.

The handouts were fascinating, and Karal was already making a rough plan for his paper, wondering if he could discuss his faith's practices as well.

After the class, Karal approached Vala. "Excuse me?"

Luke hadn't seen Karal in entirely too long. He gave the--boy? Another Jaina, then--a small smile and a nod.

Karal stared, eyes wide. "Luke?" he ventured after a moment.

A five page paper? Crap. See Z, frantically scribbling in her notes to the detriment of noticing anything around her at first.

Luke's smile widened.

Karal groaned and dropped his head on the desk. "You look well," he said, voice slightly strangled. "Is the weirdness me or is it you?"

"Me," Luke said lightly. "I'm here for a 20 year reunion. Something went a little wrong."

"Sunlord!" Karal lifted his head. "Inara and Aravis and Gavin came to visit me last night and they were like you. I had no idea what was happening, if it was me or them, so I played dumb," he said. "I'll have to find them today and explain." He smiled, putting that aside for the moment. "How is life twenty years from Fandom?"
