shitposting rave 5: discount rejects from every genre

We have, unfortunately, a glut of diplomats on board, so it's a bit of trial getting an official position. Not quite as frustrating as my initial attempts to achieve this end though, so I'm not bothered.

Both of you, honestly. There's nothing to be sorry for, I just have no idea when I am, but I sincerely doubt I've gone to a party without the intent of intimidating the slag out of someone.

 

But you worked with organics! None of the Camien diplomats have.

S-sorry...

 

[He rolls his optics a little, then manifests something less processed for her and offers it.]

Give it time, I'm sure you'll all rise to the occasion whenever we formally begin negotiations.

 

I'm not a diplomat. I'm, um, poor with people. I do the information work.

 

[Muffled snickering.]

If it were possible to trade postings...

 

Oh! That makes sense!
[he slinks closer cautiously. He isn't sure if he's allowed to sit with sensei Burlesque quite yet. Social interactions are hard!]

 

That includes handling some of the incoming dockets, yes? That includes working with organics, even if it's only discovering their frankly bizarre filing systems.

I would take it in a sparkbeat, my dear. Unfortunately, colony postings take priority over any claimed association with organic organizations.

[Burlesque manifests another version of his own drink for Refractor.]

I hope it's a party with the Security birds. This seems like the sort of getup I'd wear to get back at them.

 

I-I'd probably let Index handle that.

 

[He takes off his mask and smiles, nodding gratefully before taking a cautious sip.]
!!!!
You have good taste, may ask Nichy to give you some engex!!!!
And... Security is very... insular? Weird, hard to predict? Atleast for Refractor...

 

"Colony"

 

[He shrugs.] Either way. I understand that you're where the information all goes, yes? That's important work.

Hmm. I might like to try some of hers-- I've heard good things.

[He smiles.] They are incredibly insular, but the infighting makes them a manageable problem for now. Imagine how terrible it would be if they were actually working together for once?

A shocking presumption, I know. Alas, I cannot seem to sway the Council's minds on this one.

 

Yes.

...You're friends with the small pink jet?

 

Lacuna? Yes, we met on Hedonia. She's close with both Flux and I.

 

That video, um...

 

True. Though Nichy wants them to do stuff. They don't do their jobs at all???

 

The blackmail? You probably ought to talk to her about it, but I understand that the perpetrators have been handled already.

No, they really don't do, they? I suppose a command from on high might stem the internal war long enough for a leader to rise to the top, but it might also set them at each others fuel lines with more intent.

Hmm. Might be worth suggesting, just for the entertainment factor.

 

Oh, so she's okay! Thank goodness...

 

[He snickers]
Will remember to mention entertainment factor.

 

She was last I checked, yes. Upset, of course, but I can't imagine why she wouldn't be.

Please do. I'll bring the treats if you bring the engex.

 

[A very serious salute. Jetbug has a mission.]
