Heh heh… I'm a little nervous about this one. But it's all in good humor, right?

Right.

DC: Don't own anything. Just like Buddhists. Noooooo worldly ties, what so ever.

Enjoy!

Voldemort stared, dumbstruck.

Before him, Snape shifted nervously.

"Minion…" the Dark Lord managed. "You're… you're going vegetarian?!"

Snape bit his lip. "Yes, sir." he answered.

"Why?!"

"Well, religious reasons, mainly. But have you ever read The Jungle?"

Voldemort ignored the literary reference. Books were for squares, according to Stephan Colbert. "Since when are you religious?"

"Since I went on that tea lovers cruise to southern Asia."

"And your new religion is…?"

"Buddhism, sir. I realized I was searching for enlightenment."

The Dark Lord sighed. "Well, it's not like I can stop you."

"Oh, and there's one minor problem." Snape glanced around awkwardly.

"Yes?"

"The name 'Death Eater' is a bit, well, offensive to me now."

Voldemort gaped. It had taken him hours to come up with that name. "How?"

"Well… Death is considered to be meat. And the concept of death isn't portrayed like it is in Western culture. Oh, and many Buddhists don't eat after noon."

The Dark Lord sighed. "I'll look into it." he said.

Hermione spewed her tea across the breakfast table.

"What?" gasped both Harry and Ron simultaneously.

"The Death Eaters changed their name!" she announced, scanning the soggy newspaper.

"To…?' Harry asked, horrified.

Hermione frowned, then made a face.

"Er… The Soy-Reincarnation Fasters."

AN: Um… that was funny for me, at least. (Excuse me while I wait for my divine punishment...)
