Practical Diplomacy, Wednesday, February 21, 2018

[sith_happened]

Today the Danger Shop was set up to look like a water-treatment facility. "Right," Anakin said, handing out extremely stupid-looking hard hats. "Another part of diplomacy is checking up on projects that your government is funding. For the most part these visits are extremely boring, often loud, and sometimes very smelly. They will usually include speeches, far too many photos, and sometimes cultural dancing, singing and food. Today will will tour this facility, nod and smile at the tour guide as he gives us information about the building that you will absolutely not be able to hear, and then negotiate your way through a table full of food that you don't recognize."

Anakin smiled. "It'll be fun!"

Well, it would have been more fun if Anakin hadn't cranked the heat so that the ambient temperature in this fake facility wasn't close to 95/35 degrees and humid as all hell.

Eat unknown food!

There's...fried looking stuff, and rice, and something that is vaguely tomato-y? Maybe some roasted meat? Definitely fish with the head still on. Eat up, or pretend to! Drink the water because it is hot and you're probably sweating a ton, if your species is the type to sweat a ton.

At least with the food, it was easy enough to pick what to sample based on whether or not it was staring at him. He actually kind of appreciated that Danger Shop food wasn't prone to having disgruntled ghosts tag along with it. He couldn't imagine those fish would be giving him a great time right now.

Oh, and water. He was drinking so much water.

Ahsoka had eaten stranger. On the island even.

... Yeah Bobby was going right for that water. Maybe some of the rice. But also mostly the water. The humidity actually kind of helped, or at least made it so things weren't as bad as they could be, but Bobby was a guy who regularly turned to ice. Water was important.

Food was food and Uma had eaten a hell of a lot worse. She was filling up her plate with anything that caught her eye and would probably go back for seconds. And thirds.

Food was food and Kaylin was happy to eat any of it.
