Practical Diplomacy, Wednesday, April 18, 2018

"Today we'll test all of your diplomatic skills," Anakin said, ushering the students into the Danger Shop. "I'm sure you won't be severely bodily harmed. That's why you're in the Danger Shop."

Very reassuring, Anakin. Truly.

Ambush!

It had to happen sometime, because let's face it, this is how 80 percent of Anakin's diplomacy ended up. Three masked beings have crashed the party and are taking hostages, demanding to speak to your boss. What do you do?!

(Escaping out the back is totally valid.)

Sidon held up his hands to show he was not armed and meant no harm, though he had taken stock of what was nearby that could make a quick weapon in a pinch, if need be. Hopefully, though, there would be no need.

"Let us all take a moment," he said in a carefully measured tone, "to consider our options. My boss was unable to attend the festivities tonight, but I am here in his stead. Perhaps I may be of assistance to you by proxy? I assure you, he has bestowed upon me all the authority and privilege he might typically hold in such an occasion."

"Sure, that's fair," Yang said amiably, gesturing for them to follow her, the cut of her suit making it clear that there was no way she was hiding weapons in her jacket. "I'm just here for tonight, this is above my paycheck."

Was she going to lead them straight to Anakin if he was around? Yes. If he wasn't, well, she'd be punching the leader in the FACE the moment they were out of immediate civilian range. Because the only boss Yang had was violence.

Oh, yeah, this was familiar.

Ahsoka dramatically dropped her over robe (that being the entire reason she'd worn it to begin with), and started flinging the three about with the Force and maybe a bit less care than she'd use when dealing with real people.
