Deep breath. Nate had this. Before raising his hands he had to crack his knuckles. They were stiff. Probably from talking about old people. That was a common thing to happen amongst many groups of people. One person would say I feel ill, then others would psychologically think that they might be ill as well, and then they start to feel ill. So possibly talking about old people made his knuckles stiff.
Nate raised his hand, then stated "Some of the many signs of a deceased organism is they will feel cold to the touch. Depending on the time of death they might start to stink of rot and decay. Sometimes the body will become pail due to the heart not pumping blood through the body. Also they wouldn't have a pulse." Sigh of huge relief. Nate was glad he got that answer out quick. He couldn't stand being this one-of-the-first-few-people-to-raise-his-hand thing. That was unlike Nate's biological nature. He was more street smart and sporty. Not book smart and nerdy...that was his friend's job, Caelyn.
