[Sialia]

((I just need Syv to post now ))

[syvarris]

((Yeeaah, sorry.  I meant to post yesterday, but have been having a crappy couple of days.  I'll try and write something soonish.))

[Sialia]

((Don't stress. You picked a good time for it, I am sick at the moment so glad there isn't as much to keep up with. Also really enjoying this God game RtD I have got myself into.))

[syvarris]

((I took the liberty of assuming god was called Jehovah only, and not "God".))

"Thank you, thank you, I'm happy to speak in this wonderful school, this wonderful chapel, and such a great story--I've heard the story of Job before, it had a tremendous effect on me, it was a very good lesson to learn.  It teaches us that there are winners in this world, and there are losers, but even if you're a total loser, just completely sad, you can be rich, you can win.  You have to be loyal--listen to me, you have to be loyal, realize you're still a loser, it isn't yours, powerful people can still take it away in a moment, you might be confused, but you have to be loyal, you have to have respect, because those powerful people might be classy, they might pay you back twice as much.  Like me, I pay people back, I pay my debts, I pay people back four times as much, even more, but you can't be disloyal dummies without respect, so many people make that mistake, believe me, bad things happen to those people!  It's sad, let me tell you a story, it's a short story, but it's good, this story is about a guy called Hey-seus or something like that, he was a great guy, he built stuff for me, but it was shoddy, he was so incompetent, it's unbelievable, how could I pay him for that?  It was terrible work, just terrible, but you know what?  Hay had respect, he was loyal and he had respect, he came back to work for me again, and he stopped failing, he built things well, just fantastic, he helped build some beautiful buildings!  But there's so many people who don't know this, it's disgraceful, I've seen so many frauds who just do shoddy work and expect to be treated well, nobody will like you if you're so selfish, if you're a sleazebag, you'll be hopeless!  Like Job, he wasn't selfish, he knew he did good work, he was loyal, and he got paid back.  He was rich, but he realized that didn't make him a winner, he knew he was a loser and he had respect, so Jehovah paid him back.  He was like Hillary, she's a great woman, she lost of course, because she's a loser, but she still had respect, I expected much worse from her, and her supporters, but no, she was loyal.  Loyalty is important, because if you're loyal to a winner, you'll win with them!  It's very simple.  Thank you for letting me speak here today, I see a lot of future winners in this crowd, a lot of loyal people, you all are going to win, believe me.  We'll make America win, together, we'll make America great again!"

((God is a pretty good catchall name for God. It simply means, the invoked one. Jehovah is something else altogether. It's I AM THAT I AM. It is a statement of self-existence within a name.))

[Sialia]

"And in my land there was one who bore our suffering, we called him Frodo the ringbearer! He is now at peace in the undying lands..." Tangorn is enjoying the cultural exchange.

The chaplain looks quizzically at Tangorn. He again looks about to respond before being cut off by Trump. Had he finished his thought, it may have been a recommendation to a mental health professional.

"What a loony. Glad he's not with us."

Trump has forged ahead with his speech, giving the chaplain opportunity to pretend this was not heard.

move one of the drapes over and peek out of the window.

The outside is almost a solid wall of misty fog. Little light reaches the ground level. Almost nothing can be seen outside the window.

The chaplain leads the children in applause of Trump. Everyone is incredibly appreciative of his input, even if half of them are unsure what was actually being said.
The chaplain stands. He and several of the teachers move to the altar. He speaks out toward the audience. ‘As Christ partook of the last supper so we partake of his communion in recognizing his sacrifice for us. As always, staff and guests will partake of communion first, followed by the student body’ He states this for the benefit of his guests primarily.
The chaplain offers communion first to the mooks who have stepped forward to take it first at the party's order. They partake of the small cracker, and then of the wine. The communion is then offered to the rest of the party, starting with the president, of course.

"I serve the gods of my lands, while I have respect for yours, I'll have to decline partaking in their... body and blood."

Be ready to draw my sword and raise my shield if anything looks wrong.

[syvarris]

Of course Trump will partake!  After they granted such respect for his intelligence and insight, how could he not?

[Egan_BW]

As much as I'd appreciate having an excuse to not guzzle some delicious priestly vampire blood, the mooks seem fine and I have zero occult knowledge, so I have basically no reason in-character to refuse. Drink the fuck up.

"So, priesty-man. What's up with that weird fog outside? That usually happen around here?"

[S34N1C]

Nikolai will, of course, not partake, being hidden above the crowd.

[MidnightJaguar]

Sean will of course partake out of politeness at the very least. Though perhaps he should examine the wine first fo make sure there's nothing fishy about it. Use med or occult or whicher would work here. If anyone asks him he will explain that

The chaplain smiles graciously. He instead allows others to approach and partake.

Of course Trump will partake!  After they granted such respect for his intelligence and insight, how could he not?

As Trump completes his communion, he receives a blessing from the chaplain for his successful and enduring presidency. You know, this guy doesn't seem so bad. Nice school. Patriotic.

'It is a weather abnormality unique to our part of the world. May god go with you, child.' You know, he's a pretty nice man. You are always so on edge about everything as a party, it's nice to know there are people out there who will always want the best for you.

Nikolai will, of course, not partake, being hidden above the crowd.

Nikolai remains hidden. He keeps the priest trained in his sights as the events unfold.

Sean will of course partake out of politeness at the very least. Though perhaps he should examine the wine first fo make sure there's nothing fishy about it. Use med or occult or whicher would work here. If anyone asks him he will explain that

Sean remembers something he learned, he can't quite put his finger on where he learned it from. Something that said never drink what is offered you by a vampire. (Rolled your int+occult) But then, is this priest even a vampire? He seems very nice. Sean has hesitated with cup in hand.

[MidnightJaguar]

pretend to drink the wine, but don't actually do so. It would be clearly rude to not drink, but he should also keep sharp if anything but him threatens the president.

[syvarris]

Trump returns to his seat, grinning smugly, and waits for everything to be completed.
