Conductor across same terminal of different batteries...

If I had a combination of several AA and/or AAA batteries, and I had some sort of conductor (let's say a piece of aluminum foil) over all their positive terminals, and another conductor over all their negative terminals, then had some piece of wire go from one conductor, through a load, (like a voltmeter) to the other, would this function as batteries connected in series, or as batteries connected in parallel?

Ok, another question. Would the current through the load be pulled through as if each battery-to-load-and-back loop were its own circuit?
