Advanced Negotiations
OOC: All sections and Independent Study should comment to any course post. It feels really silly to post the same thing a couple times over.
IC:
*walks into class carrying only a large envelope*
Hello class. I trust your weekend was restful.
*She looks around and noted several hungover faces*
Or not.
Today we have only one topic and of course to turn in last week's assignment.
*She pulls out a picture from the envelope and tacks it to the board*
This is our subject for today. Harmless looking, oh yes, but deceptively so. It is a living example of how something can look one way, but then prove to be something entirely different. This is a reality to which you much get used to quickly as deception is something that you will all face in your lives if you have not already to some degree. We will discussion deception in more detail next time.
For now, I want this:
How would you realistically go into advanced negotiations with a tree that attacks people? Is it even possible? If it is, explain in detail and in real time, try to negotiate with said attack tree. If negotiations are not possible, how would you go about dealing with the tree? Then, in real time, try putting an end to the tree's reign of terror. To the victor goes the reward of a perfect core and a ride in my ship to your destination of choice.

*looks at the picture with curiosity*
I would presume that you can't actually communicate with the tree. However, it is living, so does that not mean that it has a right to live? If it sees the persons it attacks as a threat to it; something which we do, only with the military, then can we judge it for what it does.
I'd head over to the physicists and see if they could come up with some sort of force-field or something to restrain it. Maybe it would calm it down? It certainly would prevent people from going near it anymore and being attacked

That is an excellent and very feasible idea. You're the first to suggest a nonviolent and might I add, clever solution.
