Your imaginary friend wrote:The appointed time for the conference had come, and after making sure the King of Ravenvein's mounts were settled, GOP stepped into the officers' room and turned on the ship-wide microphone/speaker rig.

"Dear leaders of Lazarus, this is GOP speaking, your semi-host for the LazBALL! Please make your way to Conference Room A on the second deck now; today's conference is about to begin."

She repeated the announcement once more to make sure everyone had heard and then quickly started walking to the conference room herself. Noticing Grimald of Perchan who she hadn't properly met yet making his way in the same direction [presumably], she hurried even more to catch up with him.

"Hello! I don't think we've spoken yet. Have you been enjoying yourself on board?"

Oooooo, a conference?

Tubbius comes a-toddling along with two Bellies behind Him as His guards. . . and a tray of delicious, tasty things in His pudgy-fingered hands.

Your imaginary friend and Loftegen 2

The delegation from the Sacred Imperial States had largely dispersed throughout the ship, partly because of myriad interests all leading each of the aged members of the Dinaden imperial family to differing pursuits among the decks, and mostly because their security details very strongly advised that the family not all be together in a single place on the ship. The women remained with their husbands, but did not fail in this chance to find people to socialize with, the younger women proudly offering the acquaintances of the kröfte they were married to.

"My husband is the esteemed lord of the Schewin kroftship in Đenie!" "Have you met my husband? Krof Bertela of Föst kroftship, his is a chandlery!" "Oh that's a darling brooch you're wearing! Oh, perhaps you might wish to meet my husband, Krof Küciz? He deals in valuable gemstones, we could easily set up a lovely trade agreement between the kroftship and your cities!"

The widowers, of which there were sadly a few, met in the game hall, choosing to spend some of their time over cards and billiards with like-minded individuals for their own networking and dealings. The din of Dinaden filled the air in an almost overwhelming aural assault wherever more than three of the regal group gathered amid the ship, though at least most of them at least understood the barest essentials of speaking in the lingua franca of the region. Most. Elderly Krof Ferdisch was never very good at language, and needed at least two of his thankfully patient translators surrounding him at all times; even then, he remained rather quiet.

The Emperor, the Empress, and his eldest son, the heir-apparent to the state of Burätzie Đom Arzejus the Younger, all had chosen the top deck to relax in the ocean mist, with the woman fanning herself with a relaxed smile on her face and the men talking and laughing with each other while puffing on elegantly carved and inlaid pipes.

There had been a comical moment of both Arzejuses staring intently at the Tubbiuses while the latter attempted to communicate with them, the two Dinaden men stroking their facial hair in exactly the same manner with exactly the same nonplussed expressions on their faces. They were not intending to be insulting with their reactions, but it was not every day that delegates from a nation quite proud of its lack of obesity were to be faced with such a... contrarian ideology. The Empress was quick to lighten the mood with offerings of cookies prepared by the imperial kitchen specifically for her to offer to younger people she met on the boat - perhaps the sugary pastries shaped in multiple symbols of Catholic holidays would be happily enjoyed among the Treadwellian royalty's family? ...That would be the hope, at least, since the Empress was later chagrined to find that she had no more cookies left to gift.

Were there any with similar history on the boat to approach the Emperor, he would find plenty of time to regale them with stories of his service as a tank crew member alongside the previous Emperor in the second world war. He did have quite a few medals to tell the tales of, after all!

Several members of the knightly security retinue could be found in the galley and in various sections of the ship, with Đom Asmudes attempting to secure permission from the ship's Captain Srane to inspect the food stores ahead of any attempts by the imperial family to dine from their wares.

The Emperor and Ducal Heir-Apparent both look up at the sound of the intercom speaking. They had made time for a late luncheon, and now they politely patted down their faces with their kerchiefs before excusing themselves from the table that most of the family shared together. <It is now time for our star to shine,> the younger Arzejus announced with a wry smile, while the elder kissed his wife's cheek. <I hope you've been enjoying your time so far, it will have to be just a few hours enjoyed without me now,> the Elder assures her, and she simply waves him off with a flutter of her hand. <Oh please, you are always running off on business, at least you were nice enough to offer me a luxury cruise this time around.> Their sons laugh at her response, with the elder responding with just the right amount of consternation to be acceptable, before Đom Asmudes appears at the table to motion the two of them away. As the only actual member of the executive branch of Dinaden government on board, Arzejus the Elder was the only one really needed at the conference, but he had no desire to leave his inhereting line outside.

The two would arrive in the conference room impeccably dressed, with their medals gleaming, their off-white and forest green military royalty uniforms pressed and spotless, and their cummerbunds with just the right amount of folding in them. One hand on the ceremonial sword hanging from his hip, and the other on his cane, the Elder walks into the room before the Younger, who lays a hand on his father's shoulder while keeping his own sword steady beside him. They are flanked by the Knight-Captain, and his two associates, and quietly ushered to their seats. The Elder is given the aisle seat, of course.

The Emperor of Cianlandia, Kial'Dir IV, leans against the wall, and watches as important men and women shuffle into the hall. He strokes his freshly trimmed beard, and sips from a glass of the finest local ale. It's all a front, hiding the fact he's watching. Nothing escapes his grey blue eyes. Not the dignitary shakily hurrying to and fro, not the forbidden kisses between the delegates of two rival powers.
They're all here. Each and everyone of them. Pretending they aren't plotting to aid friends and doom foes
A pair of eyes glance in his direction. They watch him watch them. They may know, they may not.
But just to be sure, the Emperor looks away and sips his ale.

A new SC Proposal is at-vote; Commend Mikeswill
A vote AGAINST is recommended for the following reasons:
The SC proposal at hand is written first and foremost by an author universally disliked by the decent regions and nations of the world for both their various self-aggradizaition and fascist nature. Furthermore, the nominee is being commended almost entirely for holding a regional delegacy for a long period of time, with little to no other notable features noted to their delegacy. Additionally, the proposal has received only the minimum of drafting needed in order to secure legality (with a previous version being illegal as submitted). Finally, the proposal asserts that "this Security Council has honoured nations for far lesser feats," a exceedingly false claim and slander against the names of those so commended by the Security Council.

Leonism wrote:"Why yes, of course?" Leo looks perplexed. Then he feels, with a sense he always had but never quite knew what it really was, that there was some sort of imminent danger
Maybe not for him directly, but for his counterpart in front of him.
"Please tell me...do you need our help right now?" Leo looked serious as he spoke.

"No! Not yet, of course!" He smiles. "All is well in the Copper States!". He slowly backs away.

Once out of everyone's sight, Caussi Caulicarrot Camillot opens up a secret trapdoor on the deck, and slides down a chute. There, he finds a large computer room. The fifty CPUs are working hard to put strings of code on the screen. At the side, a terminal is open. A message pops up.

> I love you, dear, but you think too slowly, as all humans. We've stalled our decision for too long. My calculations tell me it can't be safe to escape by ground.

Caussi types furiously.

> Oh, god. Binaria, I am so sorry...

> Whatever. We can still send for an ornithopter. It is to have no insignia, the pilot someone we can trust. You are to disappear into the night. Perhaps we can still put down the rebellion.

As leaders filtered into Conference Room A and settled into seats, GOP smiled and waved a goodbye to Grimald, "It was nice to have met you!" Then she walked primly to the front of the room where a lectern had been set up on a platform. She self-consciously smoothed her plain yet excellently tailored grey dress and stepped up to the microphone.

"Greetings fellow leaders of Lazarus! I hope you are enjoying the trip so far. Today we need to discuss something decidedly less pleasant unfortunately. As you may have heard through your own sources, threats of potential nuclear attacks on Lazarus have come to us from regions on all sides... What is to be done? Do any of you have suggestions as to how this threat should be addressed?

"You'll find mics attached to your seat that can be turned on via the switch beneath your left armrest should you wish to speak. You are also welcome to present yourself at the lectern."

Sirakles Tylosis looked around for a brief moment before speaking. First of all, If like to say what a positive sign having all of us here is. Given the scale of the threat, it is clear that there is no room for blundering. I suggest that we pool our resources and organise both offensively and defensively. I believe that Mzeusia would be more suited to defensive operations. If however, it would be wiser to contribute to fighting back against the enemy, we would do what we can.

The doors of the Ball room opened with enough force to knock a painting of some long dead aristocrat off the wall.

A retinue of sharply dressed military officers of TROGCAF entered the ballroom, preceded on their flanks by one squad of infantrymen carrying rifles of an unknown bullpup design, also dressed in their best dress uniforms.

The people of the ballroom all stopped what they were doing to see the new arrivals, such was the obtuse nature of their entry.

A corporal Stood forward, his chest almost bursting out it's cavity with unbridled pride.

"It is my district pleasure to announce the arrival of the great General John "Soap" MacTavish and his retinue of favourite officers.

Soap then stepped forward with a big shlt eating grin on his face.

Sorry I'm late ladies and Gents, have we missed all the fun?

Tubbius the Rotund and Benevolent of Treadwellia gives a softly wheezed mmph followed by another mmph. First, the buffet was running low on food and drink after He and Mrs. Tubbius stayed long. Second, He found His shirt and suspenders starting to dig more than usual into His portly paunch from said feasting. Third, there is the threat of nuclear attack!

Another soft mmph is brought on by His sitting in a chair too tiny. The buffet running out was bad enough. The tight clothes aren't comfy at all. However, nuclear missiles had best stay clear of His favorite restaurants, or there would be ample coal for naughty world leaders.

President Kimball, well-rested after his night in his suite, listens intently to the proceedings and takes notes, as was his style. He preferred not to rely on secretaries, as his confidence in them was shaken many years ago, when one of his secretaries was revealed to be a spy for a foreign power.
