Comparative Religions

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

Rogue stands in the front of the classroom looking exceedingly nervous. "Professor Gandalf is not here, er, today, so I'm leading the discussion." She coughs. "Um, we will be discussing Hinduism during this class. Um, there will be more complete notes online after class. Also, we'll be discussing it again next class, so you can ask Gandalf any questions.

"Hinduism is practiced by, um, a very large percentage of the world's population. So, it is worth being studied. While it is techincally a polytheistic religion, it is also considered by some to be monotheistic." Everyone looks bored, she thinks.

She turns around and looks through Gandalf's desk. She finds a recording of Hindu chants and plays it. "Everyone, please tell the class your thoughts on this recording."

[[OOC: I'm going to be taking off, like now. Play it all out wonderfully, like I know you will.]]

Anakin nods. "Hearing something like this for the first time can be a bit overwhelming. When I was little, we had a teacher who would sing something similar (by herself but in harmony because she had two heads) and it was enough to make the hair on the back of my neck stand up."

"Just breathe. It's okay, really." Anakin demonstrates, breathing in, holding it for a few seconds, then letting it out.

Marty tries to follow the breathing technique but is too distracted by the two-headed teacher concept and wonders if she was somehow related to Zaphod Beeblebrox.

[OOC: Just curious... How are you playing this whole Anakin thing? You going for broke on the whole heavy breathing front, or you have other plans? If you want to keep it to yourself... that's cool.]

[OOC: Yay, you caught it! I crack myself up. I think I'll flip him eventually, but what makes Anakin so much fun is watching him walk the tightrope knowing that one day he's going to tip off and kill everyone OMG]
