Advanced Negotiations

[padmeofnaboo.livejournal.com]

"We're going to continue on with our discussion about slim odds. If everyone could get back with their groups."

Padme waits for the seats to shuffle about.

"If you were out last time, just sit with any group and they will fill you in. Now... I want your groups to come up with a solution to this:'

"You are in enemy territory. You don't know the layout of the land, it's your first time in thise location. You had not the chance to do research and frankly, your current situation is unintentional. You and your group are trying to make your way through to civilization, or at least what you hopes pass for it. Suddenly, you are surrounded. They are armed. You are not.'

"What do you do?"

And either way, I'd think the next thing to do would be try to communicate the fact that *you* didn't come there with the intention of being hostile.

"Ooh, I like that. Or doctors would probably work, too."

INDEPENDENT STUDY

Beka knocked on Padme's door, sometime during the week, and entered with a smile and a cup of coffee for each of them. "Hey."

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"I'd agree." Anakin nodded.

Alanna nodded. "Doctors, religious figures, exotic dancers?"

Later, she passes him by cross-eyed.

"Definitely. At which point they either try to talk, or don't care and try to force surrender."

[padmeofnaboo.livejournal.com]

"All good options."

Padme looked up, slightly less happy looking than usual. "Hello."

[can_be_more]

She'd been planning to do this later, but now was as good a time as any. Lowering her voice enough not to draw attention, she asks, "Have you seen a Delvian in town, by chance?"

"Exotic dancers?" Sam laughed, imagining what would have happened if SG-1 had ever used that excuse. Not that the guys looked bad in their G-strings, but it was still funny.

Alanna mustered a small smile. "Last resort."

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin barely repressed a snicker, but it turned his entire face red in the effort.

"I'm afraid I wasn't here either last week, ma'am."

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Okay. So we've convinced them we're harmless. How do we then get to the rest of civilization?" Sam wrote down some notes in case Professor Amidala wanted them later.

[padmeofnaboo.livejournal.com]

"Maybe join that (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomhigh/310942.html?thread=15201950#t15201950) group over there. I only see one active member."

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"Ahh, surrender," Anakin said. "A word that looks so good when you write it onto a report. Let's hope they'd rather communicate."

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"I'll ask," Cameron says, a bit reluctant.

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

"Use them as a link, I suppose."

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Yo, you've got room for one more in the group?" Cameron asks, even if there is no one else at the moment.

"I'm not very good at it, either," Aeryn admits. "It usually turns into me hitting someone."

[miss-monochrome.livejournal.com]

::smiles:: I was surprised to see her too, but yeah, somehow it's Zhaan. ::pauses:: Who you... apparently don't know?

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"More sign language," Sam said, grimacing. "Do we trust them to take us where we need to go or do we go our own way?"

[can_be_more]

Aeryn shakes her head. "I don't know why I should," she says. "She knew my name, though. I was wondering if you'd said anything to her about me and that's how she knew."

"You look...tired or busy or something. Is everything all right?" Beka stopped, shook her head. "I'm sorry. I don't mean to presume. I can come back later in the week if you'd prefer."
