interfaith dinner mingle!!

[stefanged]

Who: Interfaith Center regulars & the not-so-regulars (party crashers are welcome too!!)
Broadcast: Nope
Action: Interfaith Center on the Iskaulit
When: Forward-dated to November 4th

[The Interfaith Center sounds far more bustling and busy than usual - and anyone peering inside would quickly figure out that a communal dinner is underway! Take off your shoes and walk in: the lounge has extra tablecloths on the floor as well as buffet tables with non-alcoholic beverages and all sorts of food, including Jordanian cuisine (or the outer space equivalent of Jordanian food).

The board games are out of their hiding nooks; the furniture's arranged for the maximum seating possible; and even the teddy bears donated by Kitty & Winn are out for cuddling, should anyone want them.

The kitchen's bustling with helpers - Stefan's running around at vamp-speed to make sure everything's a) done on time and b) cooked to perfection - but he sure wouldn't mind an extra hand. And if you're still not up for some food? Well, the prayer rooms are open as usual. There's always a quiet moment to be found, even if the laughter's louder and the scent of freshly-baked mansaf's wafting through the long corridors.

Anyone and everyone who's ever been inside the Interfaith Center has been invited (via text message - and Stefan even used the fancy emoji). If you're not particularly faithful or devout? Well, drop by anyways. There's more than enough food to spare.]

[Sorey scratches his cheek sheepishly.] Well...maybe I have a unique take on religion, but, [he gestures around them] look at all this. Everyone is worshiping their own gods and spirits in their own way, here. I can't help but think that any god worth worshiping would look at this and would just see the utter devotion. I mean, wouldn't you?

[Anders takes that idea under consideration and looks around as Sorey suggests.]

I suppose you have a point. Worship in a constructive way...surely the Maker, being who He is, would simply want the respect, devotion, and desire to help that should come with worshiping Him. I've never thought He would approve of the Chantry's fascination with opulence and riches.

[Then again, perhaps that was Anders' narrow understanding.

On the other hand, a God who prized opulence and riches might not be the God for Anders.]

Perhaps you have a point, thank you.

[Something made from the heart would surely mean more than something made of impersonal images. And if it didn't...well....no, it had to be. That had to be true, Anders couldn't imagine a world where the Chantry could actually be right about the Maker.]

I'll look into making something, then.

[Ahhh, that's so nice... Sorey beams, grabbing onto his ankles and pulling his legs in tighter.] That's fantastic! If you need anything with embroidery or leathermaking, I can help you out. Please let me know!
