[considers for a moment...]

The brother of one of their members just came to us and brought up the issue, and claimed that Shell would break off their alliance if we attacked Iris like that again...He was also kind enough to me and answered my questions, despite being a recent arrival on supposedly dangerous team.

I have no reason to show Iris mercy, but we can use this to show that we respect the alliances we make and will respect our allies and their wishes. As well as reiterating what you've said about our policy. After all, they struck us and you struck back. As it stands, we're back to a level playing field with them.

Yes. On the other hand, with this sort of game ... maybe those reasons don't matter. Iris clearly has friends who want to protect them. Shell, for example. Protecting them might be pointless.
glorious: (interest)

[personal profile] glorious 2013-04-21 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
...Will they know who their protectors would be?
prettygirlsmakegraves: ((magnetic.))

[personal profile] prettygirlsmakegraves 2013-04-21 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
If we told them afterwards, yes.

I don't know about them knowing it, otherwise.
glorious: (drug)

Hmm...Shall I ask? It would be a pointless gesture if they didn't get confirmation from an...unbiased source.

Sure.

[all right, I shall go be a helper cause I would probably have a stupid fondness for dragons if I was an Aather-PG version of myself.]

[and after getting his answer]

Protecting Iris would be a pointless effort then. It would be best to focus on one of our allies and ensure they make it through the game safely.
prettygirlsmakegraves: ((and my teeth ache.))

[personal profile] prettygirlsmakegraves 2013-04-21 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
... all right. Then I say we try for Celeste. It's just the truth that they're unlikely enough to have allies who care about their survival that our efforts there might actually prove worth the effort.
glorious: (smug)

[personal profile] glorious 2013-04-21 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
Celeste it is then.
prettygirlsmakegraves: ((and now it's time for cake.))

[personal profile] prettygirlsmakegraves 2013-04-21 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
[... nods]

They'll appreciate it, too.
glorious: (need)

...As you said, Cardinal is not to be feared but only it's vengeance. We treat our allies well, whoever they may be.
prettygirlsmakegraves: ((won't wait any longer.))

[personal profile] prettygirlsmakegraves 2013-04-21 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
If we survive this we'll even throw Celeste a party!
glorious: (smug)

[personal profile] glorious 2013-04-21 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds like a wonderful idea. Have you thrown a party before?
prettygirlsmakegraves: ((magnetic.))

[personal profile] prettygirlsmakegraves 2013-04-21 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
... no ...

It can't be that hard, can it.

So long as we find a fun activity we can all enjoy, I'm sure it'll be just fine.
prettygirlsmakegraves: ((i've waited for hours.))

[personal profile] prettygirlsmakegraves 2013-04-21 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
"A fun activity we all can enjoy", huh ...
glorious: A field of white flowers in bloom (pride)

[personal profile] glorious 2013-04-21 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure we can think of something.
