Araraukar wrote:"Ahh, Wad Ahume! Long time no see!" Johan greeted him delightedly. "And of course I will. She's not here at the moment, I heard she kidnapped someone from here to take on a vacation with. She's accumulated some serious vacation days from the so-called war, and the home office decided to call her yelling at them to try to get them not execute me working hours as well."

I'm not sure I understand the whole bit about the "war" between your nations either; there must be more to it than what's been published in the international press.

Araraukar wrote:"Heh, I'm surprised if there's been anything about it in the international press - it barely made the news on our world; most nations that do not directly trade with Araraukar have little to no interest in what goes on within our borders, or claimed borders anyway. But you're in luck," he added with a grin, "as since I've already been executed for knowing too much, I can let you in on all the dirty little secrets surrounding the whole affair. Though if you want the whole story, we should probably head to one of the booths. Fewer chances of interruptions, too." He picked up his drink, a large glass of orange juice with ice and a pink umbrella, and gestured towards the windowless back wall of the Bar. "Shall we?"

(He takes his drink and follows Milkus to the booth.) So, what I have seen and read is more satirical vidcast than serious news broadcasting. Think about it. A pacifist nation declares war on a plant nation. If that's not fodder for political humor then I don't know what is. How much of what's been said is pure fact, and how much is wild speculation, is unclear. So, let's start at the beginning; I'm not buying the alleged cause of the declaration of war. "Occupation" by plant life of an unoccupied volcanic island that's about to erupt? To the outsider that makes no sense.

Mistress Alison, Probably a little Drunk Takes up the challenge. She takes off her jacket and takes one of the 10 millies and points it at her heart.
“If this dun work, I’m comin’ back ‘n hauntin’ all ya’ll!”
She braces herself and pulls the trigger, A large spray of water splashes out of the gun and soaks her tee-shirt. Covering herself she puts her jacket back on.
“See? Ain’t no fear from an Ozarkan! Now it be rude to stare so Don’t ye Do it! She returns to the Bracardi and chugs down the rest of the bottle.
“Heh, this is th’ shit! Beer tastes like nuttin’ but horse piss if ya ask me! Been ‘while since I hadda good drink!”

AHUME: Huh. Sounds plausible enough I suppose. So if that's the "official story", then... (lowering his voice) ...since you have ties to both Araraukar and the PPU, you're in a unique position to know what really happened.

“Hello!” Elisa smiled. But inside she was anything but. The crocodile can speak and has a state-of-the-art environment suit. Am I dreaming? Or is this really the World Assembly Stranger’s Bar?
“It is a pleasure to have this opportunity to talk with Your Excellency. My name is Elisa Wake. I am new around here... and it is lovely to have one of the regulars here spending their time to have a wee chat with me.”
“Well. Um, actually, I was planning to do some paperwork concerning the decision of Yohannes to vote NAY for the Resolution At Vote: Freedom to Seek Medical Care. I need to make a submission for the parliament and our government, the Christian Democratic Executive Council, on why I have decided to vote NAY. But I can always toss aside paperwork, Your Excellency. How are you doing today?”
“No, no, Your Excellency. I would never do that! Ha ha.” Will Mr Crocodile here bite me if I say I would leave...? I’d rather not know the answer to that one... Elisa smiled once again.

“Your... excellency?” Rirten makes a ratchetting sound in the back of their throat that the translators interpret as a confused “huh?” They look to Ambassador Olsh for guidance, but find none. “I am not Your Excellency. I am Rirten.” Notably, the word the translators give as their name sounds absolutely nothing like what the sounds coming out of their mouth, which resemble the rumbling of a car engine more than actual speech. “It is a good name, yes? Very traditional.”
Allied Sapients wrote:“I am doing very well. There are so many things to learn here! What is paperwork? What is a parliament? What is the ~~—_> Democratic Executive Council?” Apparently the translators didn’t know what to do with Rirten’s attempt to pronounce “Christian” in their own version of speech.
Allied Sapients wrote:Don’t worry, Rirten doesn’t bite. Their alien biology means they may well poison themself if they were to try, and they wouldn’t be able to get through the siliplastic helmet even if they wanted to. Which they wouldn’t. That would be rude, and it would expose themselves to the hideously cold and dry environment of the Bar. “Good, good! I will learn many things about you! And you will learn many things about me! All such things!”
