interfaith dinner mingle!!

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.]

Don't think so, unless a Viscount's elected. See, we have a big vote every four years, all over the country, to pick our leader.

That seems terribly inefficient to have to all agree on a ruler every four years. And what does peasantry care who's on a throne? Their lives are basically the same regardless.

[He folds his arms, thinking.]

And what's to keep a current ruler from making people vote for them at swordpoint? Or how does every village decide on the same person and not just write in their own friends and neighbors that no one else has ever heard of? I thought your America was a fairly large country but I don't see that working for somewhere large.

Trust me, ain't no way you're gonna miss the election and who's running for president. We got tv and radio and the internet and all of that to let everyone know. And we also elect representatives that go to the capital, so the president can't just do whatever he wants.
