It was stationary from the 3th Floor Bathroom, identifiable a belonging to the Confederate Dominion by the heading…and noticeable goat bitemarks on the edge.
Across the paper, flowing script in a velvety dark blue ink could be read:Fellow Ambassadors,
I am taking a leave of absence. I do not know when, if ever, it will end. Having finally embezzled enough money from whatever fools keep flushing their financial documents rather than shredding them, I am going to take a well-earned vacation. Kate and I have certainly deserved an opportunity to reacquaint without being called away to an argument about whether international tax reforms apply to sapient badgers.
Chuckie has been left in capable hands. You need not worry about him. Your stationary will no doubt be safer this way.
My office is booby trapped, so don’t even think about trying to claim it, unless you want to structurally compromise the Bar. There are many times I am thankful for the Ainocran leftovers, and this is yet another of them. While I’m reasonably sure you’ll all survive the blast, there is no way that old coppertop will, and I’m willing to gamble that nobody wants to wait through another Bar renovation.
To my friends, and you know who you are, I will try to be in contact. You deserve as much, since I managed to vanish in the middle of the night. No promises. It is a vacation, after all.
Yours in escaping extrajudicial banishment,
Benjamin Bell, Ambassador At Large
Confederate Dominion Ministry of Foreign Affairs
This Fourth day of April, 2017

Official Communique
Ministry of Foreign Affairs
The following is an official statement from the office of Foreign Minister Willem Jaegger on 4.5.17:
The Confederate Dominion unilaterally suspends from all treaties and obligations, diplomatic and financial, required by the World Assembly pending reassessment of the value of membership. No replacement ambassador will be considered at this time. The international community is advised that the C.D.S.P. will retain those policies of the World Assembly that were in line with C.D.S.P. law prior to membership. Despite our withdrawal from all World Assembly obligations, the C.D.S.P. will retain nominal membership and diplomatic relations with other member governments until otherwise noted.
Our ambassadors to other nations are authorized to continue plenipotentiary diplomacy, and will answer any questions of C.D.S.P. policy regarding your specific nation.
Signed,
Minister Willem Jaegger
C.D.S.P. Ministry of Foreign AffairsConfederate Dominion of Separatist Peoples
Official Communique
Office of the President
The C.D.S.P. has severed all diplomatic relations with the nation of Bigtopia and Marche Noire as of 4.5.17, and have moved naval assets into Bigtopian waters in response to concerted insurgency attempts by anti-C.D.S.P. forces. Attempts to interfere with these military operations will be viewed as support for Bigtopian insurgency efforts and treated accordingly.

Araraukar wrote:"There are over twenty thousand WA member nations, even if just one percent of their ambassadors came here, it would still be a crowd of two hundred, so having a couple dozen ambassadors ambling around and getting drunk or eating or being eaten or whatever each is doing, isn't really all that much, if you think about it,"
Araraukar wrote:"As for me, I'm basically on a vacation. My nation's not in the WA, I'm here just to try and help keep some sanity and give a fresh point of view on the drafting debates. So mostly I argue, when not here in the Bar. And sometimes actually still arguing on the drafting debates at the same time; time doesn't work normally around here. What about you? Who and what are you?"

The cream pie's ballistic flightpath would certainly have scored a direct hit on the strange plant, if it had not been intercepted by the ballistic flightpath of a half-grown striped beige cat.
"CRRREEEEEEAAAAAAM!!!" Junior Inshpekshuuner collided with the pie and, somehow managing to turn the pie dish and himself in the air so that when he hit the ground, it was with the dish first, with him standing on it, and their combined speed was enough to make the cream-covered cat and his pie sled slide out of sight under the tables.
Harold was quickly becoming the favourite weird ambassador of the cats of WA Kitty Kops. There was never a shortage of cream filling with him around.

Dan smiles at Ogenbond. "I am indeed new. Well met." Dan sticks out his hand for a handshake, then pauses from uncertainty. "Is a handshake an appropriate form of greeting in your culture? I don't want to offend you. I am Dan, the Ambassador to the WA from D0min4ti0n. Thank you for attempting to communicate at my height level, but it really is not necessary. Make yourself comfortable, pull up a chair and tell me about yourself.
I'm interested to hear your method of reproduction, as Janis seems to think it exceedingly odd."
