[Malik is so responsible... Mandricardo clears his throat, turning his own attention to the memorial. Who to start with.....well.]
...Manwol. I-I think I always was terrified that I was....someone you'd walk all over. In a good way! Like...you were just so high of a person. I was a king, and you were like, untouchable. But the more we talked, I realized that you worked so hard to get where you were. There's so much that you went through, and...just the fact that you could carry on was admirable. I know that you're...not truly gone. But where you are, I know you can do it. I know you can...push forward, okay? But still.....I-I'll miss you. Get back soon. Please.
[I hope that was enough. He has to gather his emotions for the next one.]
[ malik is still doing his thing! his prayers are pretty verbose, and after he does his first act, he's going on to the second. he's sounds like he's practiced this, but that's what happens when your entire job is religion. ]
Glory be to thee, O Osiris Un-Nefer, thou great god in Abtu, King of Eternity, Lord of Everlastingness, God whose existence is millions of years, eldest son of Nut, begotten by Geb, the Ancestor-Chief, Lord of the Crowns of the South and the North, Lord of the High White Crown. Thou art the Governor of gods and of men and hast received the sceptre, the whip, and the rank of thy Divine Fathers. Thy power is widespread, and great is the terror of thy name 'Osiris.' Thou endurest for all eternity in thy name of 'Un-Nefer.' Homage to thee, King of kings, Lord of lords, Governor of governors, who from the womb of the Sky-goddess hast ruled the World and the Under World. The gods come before thee bowing low. They hold thee in fear. They withdraw and retreat when they see the awfulness of Ra upon thee; the thought of the conquests of thy Majesty is in their hearts. Life is with thee.
Let them follow thy Majesty as when they were on earth, let their souls be summoned, and let them be found near the Lords of Truth.
[Thanks, Malik, for your Religion Expertise. But now, finally, he will move on to Sakyou. Malik might have thought that Manwol was the one he was most upset about, but actually..........he's starting to cry a little.]
Sakyou........i-it doesn't feel real, y'know? We'd always talk. After everything, we'd just find each other and talk. Because you'd always understand, right? Because....b-because you were my friend. My first friend here, and...
[He's wiping his tears now, but they're still coming.]
I'm going to fight for you, and make sure you come back safe and sound, because...I-I told you I'd look out for you, right? Because...because I love you. You know I do. And I miss you so much. You're a fighter, and you have...so much to look for. I know you'd probably just wave it off, because I know you don't think you deserve it, but....p-please. We'll get out of this. I'll make sure to see you again.
If you're able to get alcohol for Manwol, she'd like that. I can't get it either, because I'm underage... but there's nothing left to say to them, and they have to make it to the afterlife on their own.
Like I said, since I don't have a definite age on my ID, I can't get it, but...I can try to pull some strings, maybe.
[He sighs. Malik is right, though. And of course he wouldn't like ghosts. Its his job to help people get to where they need to go. Someone lingering would be...]
We'll see them soon, y'know? That's what Wang Lu told me. Either way...they'll be safe there. I hope.

That'll do.
...There's more spells in the bowl. [ the pages he had placed in there. ]
It will protect them, even if there's no way for them to face judgment.

[He reaches out to clasp Malik's hands, raising them up to lean against with his forehead.]
T-Thank you. Thank you for doing this.
no subject
I... it's nothing. Just don't tell people about it. I'm not doing this for everybody who dies.
[ I just don't want to be haunted... ]
no subject
I'm sure Manwol and Sakyou would thank you for it.
[And a sigh, as he lowers the other's hands.]
Even if you don't want to meet their ghosts...it's good. Thank you.
no subject
...You're welcome.

[ a beat. ] Or daycare, I suppose.
