HANABIRA SOLUTION PROPOSALS + PLOTTING

OOC PLOTTING POST

This is an OOC companion post to the Diplomacy log. You can comment below to plot with each other, or submit mission solution proposals! These proposals will be the basis of the mission finale.

PROPOSAL RULES

  • Only submit completed proposals! Do not use the submission section for discussion.

  • Reply to a proposal with a +1 to ICly vote for it. Please do not vote for more than two proposals per character. You can delete your vote if you change your mind.

  • Do not reply to someone else's submission with anything but a +1. Do not discuss the proposals in the submission subthread. This complicates our ability to count votes! There is an IC thread on the log for in-character discussion and you may of course discuss proposals outside of the submission area.

  • The mods don't answer hypothetical questions. If you're not sure if something will work, that's okay!

  • You can submit multiple proposals, but use your judgment! Don't go overboard, and let other people have the opportunity to submit proposals as well.

  • You can submit something that's similar to someone else's proposal, but try not to submit exact duplicates. If someone submitted something you had in mind, just vote for it!

  • Please keep your submissions between 50 and 250 words.

  • Proposals and voting are both due by 21 February 23:59 UTC.
Ready? Submit your proposals below!

empress marriage

[personal profile] refashioned 2018-02-17 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
With the caveat that it needs to be strictly consensual, Veronica will be suggesting that the Empresses marry. She'll point out that the two of them have a great deal to learn from one another: Youmi's been in rule for a while, but Nama was in charge of a nation that was more strictly militaristic in nature. In terms of economics, they are compatible, able to meet each other's needs. Both Empresses believe in appointing an heir in the absence of one, and she believes it would be a good idea for them to do that together.

Their nation can have rotating capitals of a sort: with their primary cities serving as legislative districts and receiving their attention. The Flowerlands would remain neutral in all of this given Doro's lack of self-interest in trying to help both Empresses achieve peace. The guild would also be pleased to help handle rebel groups. They would be encouraged to appreciate the uniqueness of both sides of their empire, encouraging it to grow.

In honor of the peace agreements, Veronica would also suggest that the marriage take place at Doro's castle. Oh, this plan involves the beautiful dowry that Aloy and Kylo happened upon.

So as previously discussed Kylo Ren and Aloy are in possession of two pearls big enough for a dowry. He will likely be staying with Youmi and her entorage to ensure they get handed over for the proceedings. He is (mostly) in favor of a political marriage, but also needs some convincing on how this will help get rid of the problem of rebels because REBEL SCUM SUCKS.

He makes a good Enforcer, but unless someone wants him to mind trick someone, there are much better choices for diplomacy. He will also consider handing over the pearls to someone he trusts if a. he would be more useful in the mountains and b. someone he truss is willing to stay behind and accept the responsibility for handling the dowry.

and if no one wants to use the dowry then......idk he will probably just keep them (or at least one of them)

Veronica will be traveling with Youmi and will be acquiring a horse of her own. She'll be angling to get a read on the advisors' perspectives in all of this, but obviously, she won't be able to nudge her way inside. During the spirit attack, she'll be dinged up a little, but otherwise fine.

More wedding scheming, diplomatic discussions, or even just getting drunk on terrible sake can occur!

Keith will be heading to help get Nama over, if only because Youmi's nation seems to have everything in check (and he has a grudge about that closed gate). Standing guard is out (read: boring), so yes, it's traveling through all the fights to get to the mountain base it is. Keith is great at taking down guards quickly to help people get out. He's a natural distraction and he has limited camouflage to help.

He'll honestly be glad for the action, especially once everyone's attention returns to the diplomacy (blegh).

Veronica is definitely pro-dowry, especially since they did so much work to get them!*

Hayame + Sieglinde plotting

[personal profile] kisha 2018-02-17 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
Hayame, by virtue of enjoying a taste of the matriarchy and also just Getting the warrior culture of the Mountain clan more, will be heading back to escort Empress Nama. ... Hooves cover ground quicker anyway. She's a fighter and a top notch archer so she'll likely be of use taking out members of the faction that has taken over the castle. (If Nama needs an escape ride, she can have one, but no one else!!)

Diplomatically, Hayame opposes marriage between the two empresses and instead supports marrying a male and female relation to produce a mixed blood heir, because she thinks having to appoint an heir will just mean fighting and unrest erupts again later on with whichever clan the heir isn't chosen from feeling slighted.

Sieglinde isn't a great traveler so she'll be sticking with Empress Youmi's entourage out of the Sea clan lands. Pack mules aka dudes willing to carry her or help her out on horseback Wanted. During the battle with the spirit, she will provide defensive magic and heal ups afterwards, so make sure to shout if you need patching up.

Diplomatically, Sieglinde is on the fence still about what she thinks needs doing, and will be wanting to consult with others to hear their thoughts along the journey.

Inuyasha is gonna be chilling around Doro's castle doing guard duty unless someone wants him in particular with them on either escort. Otherwise, he'll definitely just be all beat-em-up anyway.

That said, I'll see if I can squeeze him into the fight with the forest spirit since he's nearby.

He's talked to a few people about the marriage proposal, and so he'll be up to doing that more than likely though he FOR SURE DEFINITELY isn't gonna be the one telling them. However! He also talked to Majima about naming one an heir, and so that is also a thing considered.

Dunno if I will top-level or not, but let me know if you want something!

"keep...one of them"

wink





anyway at some point either before or after empress fetching rey's gonna pick his brain about political marriages bc she's Out of her Depth in that network post and he has opinions and background in politics so be ready for that
forcevisions: (empty your sadness)

[personal profile] forcevisions 2018-02-17 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
Rey will be heading to the Mountain Clan on account of being worried about them trying to incite a war due to her interrogation with Keith.

She will probably try to convince people to stop for the skirmishes along the way.

And once in the castle, she can jedi mind trick guards for added stealth points.

She doesn't know anything about politics really so as far as proposals go, she's mostly just gonna be listening to what other ppl think and settling on what sounds like it makes the most sense.

that's ok it's counterbalanced by the fact that men love it when you ask them to explain things right
justbeingknife: (ha!)

[personal profile] justbeingknife 2018-02-17 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Majima will be sticking with Empress Youmi because fighting a big angry bird forest spirit are you kidding he's ready, he is going to FIGHT THE SUN.

He'll also be interested in archery lessons, but may actually spend time trying to convince some Sea Clan guards to shoot some arrows at him so he can live the blood knight dream. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD, SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE

I may or may not top level, not sure :x. But in any case drop me a line if you'd like to make any plans!

Oh no both options sound exciting Laphicet will be on the trip to escort Empress Nama! He's an invisible spirit to the natives (and other teammates, but able to communicate via magitek YOU KNOW THE DRILL), so he'll be able to stealth on in. He's going to be mostly sneaking around to help hostages and get Nama, but he can help fight with his magic if he sees that you need it.

I don't know if I'll be top-leveling this time around, so I'm more likely to be tagging in if a teammate needs help/or let me know where you need me/I can set up specific prompts. I'd like to get in on more actiony stuff with him, so HMU!!

As for the solution proposal, he's likely leaning towards the empress marriage.

Jhin will be joining the group escorting Empress Youmi and will be more than happy to help beautifully murder that forest spirit and any of the attacking critters. Spirits attacking? Why this truly is a home away from home. He's been starved for murder for a while now, he needs to let it out somewhere.

He'll likely try and borrow a bow for the fight, or stick with his dagger and earth magic. Sorry to anyone that trips over magical vines in the middle of the fight. If anyone that knows about Whisper asks why he isn't using it, they wont get much of an answer from him. Whisper is not for use in such a crowd okay, but he could possibly be convinced to take it out since it packs a much bigger punch than a bow.

Dunno if I'll do a top level, but if anyone wants anything hit me up.

yo I realized I've never tagged Jhin I don't think, so like
