HANABIRA SOLUTION FORMAL ARGUMENTS

[futurologists]

FORMAL ARGUMENTS This is a follow-up to the proposal post, for characters to ICly argue to Youmi, Nama, and Doro why Hathaway's proposed solution is a good idea. The winning vote was to propose the empresses marry each other, so all arguments must be in support of this solution. Arguments are due 28 February 23:59 UTC. WHAT DO I DO? Submit a unique argument for why the empresses should marry in the comments below. Arguments must be between 50-250 words and must be submitted as a summary of what your character would ICly say. Characters may submit arguments in a group or solo. There will be a subthread for anyone looking to group up below! UNIQUE ARGUMENT? This means that your argument should not be for the same reasons as anyone else. Because each submission must be a unique argument, you may only be involved in one comment, so choose carefully! For example, if the solution was to make the Hanabiran national animal a hamster, you could not argue it should be because hamsters are cute if that was already someone's argument; you must choose a different argument, such as hamsters' propensity for chewing wood would be a boon to the logging industry. You may choose a related topic as well; for example, hamsters being cute because they are small if someone argued that hamsters are cute because they're soft. WHAT ARGUMENTS NEED TO BE MADE? Nama and Youmi must be given solid reasons why their marriage will benefit each empress and empire. If you need help thinking of something they could offer each other, looking over the dossier description of each empire may help. THE SOLUTION WAS ALREADY VOTED ON. WHY DO WE NEED ARGUMENTS? The mods will be using an algorithm to determine how effective the solution is. What the empresses think of it and how successful it is depends on both quantity and quality of the arguments, as well as other ~secret~ factors. In other words, if only one person submits an argument (and that argument is "because I like hamsters"), the solution will fail. So get brainstorming! I DIDN'T VOTE FOR IT, BUT I STILL WANT TO ARGUE FOR IT. CAN I? Absolutely! Characters who decide to help the majority despite their qualms may certainly argue for it. WHAT IF MY CHARACTER DOESN'T AGREE? If your character wouldn't argue for the marriage solution, then they certainly don't have to! If they would actively argue against it or for a different solution, you may handwave that they did, but we are only accepting arguments for the winning solution.

POLITICS.

Rhys would want to focus on what Nama and Youmi could offer each other politically! For example, Youmi is a more experienced leader and Nama could learn from her, as well as have a strong leader behind all of the decisions she makes. Nama would also finally be able to get out from under her advisors' thumbs once she married Youmi. On the other hand, Nama is young and fresh with new ideas and likely more military experience, all of which Youmi could use.

If anyone else has anything political to mention (or just agrees with Rhys's points), I'm definitely up for grouping up!! c:
