The Beginning of a Beautiful Future [Diplomacy W/Panama]
Fri May 26, 2017 8:11 pm
Earth was a place that seemed to never change; a majority of the occupants were simply searching for power. Power was a means to an end for most, and was something which would ensure a peaceful existence. Those who sought power for a goal such as this was much better, though more naive, than those who sought power in order to gain more. Either way, these philosophies were so focused on the use of power in order to achieve their goal that it was rather childish. This childish nature, however, was something that Xavier expected from the species; they were a young species. While they outdated his own birth, he had lived long enough to know just how barbaric they once were; in fact, they still held these barbaric traditions.
It was in these traditions that Xavier saw much of his own race; the hatred that boiled up over one another, all of it culminating until war erupted. This barbaric act was something that Xavier was able to understand, after all it had destroyed the Iramasha for quite some time. As far as he was concerned they had deserved the destruction, as did all those who decided to go to war. All those who argue over such an idiotic reason should simply die.
"I will bring this country to the forefront of trade. We have held such an important trade route for such a long time that this country has etched its name in history as a historic, and necessary, trade route. We can, and will, use this position to leverage ourselves. It is with this that I can promise the further expanse of our economy. Not only this, but we can continue to utilize what has been so historic. Casinos, clubs, everything that attracts the youth. This can be done, and will be done." It was with this that Xavier had finished his discussion with the president; the man was rather understanding of the countries position and was understanding. It was with his own intellect and power, thought the power was something which he decidedly was against using unless absolutely necessary, that he would close this deal. With a smile the president would slide him the treaty.
With a smile Xavier would sign his name across the paper, more than happy to take claim to this country. What a marvelous place; it was the perfect place for him to begin his work. This world, this corrupt world, was in need of a cleansing. It was time that the oppression stopped and equality truly set in.
"It is time for a new age, an age in which everyone can find a job; in which everyone can feed their families. Do you not agree?" Xavier smiled, having finished the paperwork. "Well, how do we celebrate such a marvelous occasion?"

Re: The Beginning of a Beautiful Future [Diplomacy W/Panama]

Aw, Panama. A country that use to be one of the greatest tourist attractions several centuries ago. With its beautiful beaches that boasted white sand and crystal blue water, warm weather, and rich culture. Add the Panama Canal, and Zero could see why folks wanted to visit the Central American country. However, with the advancement of technology and the rise of forces capable of destroying entire cities, Panama had definitely fallen out of favour with the world. After all, though it was untouched by one of the five major factions, it couldn’t even offer the citizens mediocre protection if someone decided to take the land by force. So, yes, some areas of the once magnificent country had fallen into ruin from her brief glance as she flew overhead.
It really was a state that could tug on heart strings and make people mourn for the people of Panama, but Zero didn’t care too much about the residential areas. So long as Panama City was still as gorgeous as she had read, then nothing else about the country concerned her. She was only there to fill her empty belly, take a short nap, and maybe cause a little trouble before continuing the journey to Washington D.C. So, first thing was first, sneaking into a hotel since she needed the money she had on her for snacks - she probably had plenty to pay for a room and food, but that wasn’t the point. The point was that she was going to stay in a comfortable hotel at the top floor because there was no way anyone with money would be occupying the floor - there were better places to spend one’s days - and she was a firm believer in ‘go big or go home’.
And that’s the story of how Zero snuck into the hotel, wondered the halls of the top floor in awe, before becoming curious about voices coming from a room. Now, anyone with an ounce of human decency or self-preservation would take that moment to find another room. But not Zero. Not when she hears plans of celebrations and she could never pass up on those. It didn’t matter what it was for as the promise of free food was enough to get her involved.
So, without concern for how the occupants in the room would take her sudden presence, she barged into the room with the biggest grin painting her face. And, as if she assumed the two men in the room were deaf, loudly said:
“I wanna be in the party!”

Xavier believed this to be a rather important meeting, and as such he had prepared for just about any situation in which he could find himself. He had hoped that these preparations would not have to be used, though he had a feeling that his life would never be so simple; Murphy's law stated that anything that could go wrong would go wrong, and it was with this mentality that Xavier had came today. With a smile, shaking the mans hand, he was fairly confident that today was going to be an easy day; there was nothing that seemed to be causing a disturbance and the people in the room seemed to take his proposal fairly well; hell, they had agreed to allow him to do as he must to revitalize this country.
Panama City was, and shall continue to be, the center of tourism in Panama. It was a place which offered the people such a large amount of options in order to fulfill their every desires; who could find a better place to begin building an empire based on equality and freedom? It was with a smile that Xavier would walk forward, looking out toward the city; it was a place which would serve as a fine headquarters and beginning. What he had planned next was a visit to another country and another organization; he had to acquire some relationships which allowed him to expand. It was time for him to begin making some moves; it was time for the world to be flipped over; things were meant to change, after all.
It was as he smiled out toward the horizon that he had sensed the presence of another; it seemed that someone was on their way to join in their festivities, and there was nothing that was going to stop them; what was the point of security if they could not handle a single person? All he could hope for, at this point, was that the being was not going to cause any undue disturbances; it would be a pain in the ass if there were to be a problem. "It seems we are bound to have a guest! She seems to be rather peaceful." He chuckled, looking over to the male.
It was with this that the doors to the pent house would open and Xavier would look over; quickly looking the female over it seemed that she was simply here to have some fun, as it were. She didn't emit any sort of negative vibes, nor did she appear to be a threat. Waling forward, grabbing the paper and placing it in his front pocket, Xavier would welcome the lady. "And just who are you? I also must ask as to why you are here; we are in the middle of something rather important." Sensing no threat he didn't see the need to make any sort of moves himself. "Please do explain yourself, or simply leave. Either work at this point." He simply waited for a reply.

Zero cannot help but grace the men with a large smile, though her eyes are fixated on the man who welcomes her. She doesn’t answer his question immediately though. Instead, taking a moment to look around the room that she was in before setting her sights on the only man worth speaking to - he did sort of radiate power, though that did not concern her. She takes a couple seconds to interlock her fingers behind her back before taking a slight bow and saying:
“Zero, The AAA Battery, at ya service, mister.”
She straightens her back after that, though her hands remain behind her. If she could remember right - which she didn’t - her teacher said that keeping your hands out of sight eased people nerves - the opposite was true. And so, she was banking on her friendly demeanor and nonthreatening appearance - you’d be called silly if you feared someone of her stature without reason - to prove to the two males that she wasn’t a threat. But, just in case…
“I come in peace. Just happened to hear talks bout celebrations. And I do love parties. Free food and everything, ya understand… right, mister?”
She tilts her head to the left as she stares at him, as if daring him to challenge her words. Though, she doesn’t seem to consider that she hasn’t presented anything to challenge. It doesn’t matter though, cause she doesn’t really give him enough time to answer before moving along.
“I just wanna join in these festivities cause they lots of fun before I fly into North America. Hunting a doll and all, so won’t stay long, if ya concerned bout that.”
She pauses for a moment before saying:
“So, what the occasion?”

Xavier was still a bit in awe as the female continued to speak as thought this situation was nothing unusual; it was almost as though she was always simply barging into meetings in which she had no reason to be? Well, her attitude was neither here nor there (for the moment), but perhaps he would be able to make a new friend! A person who may be of some use in the future; these were chaotic times, who knows when they may need a friend! It was better to be connected, and have friends, than to have no connections or friends.
In this situation it would be, more than likely, best for all parties if he simply conceded and allowed her entry; all forms of private talk were finally complete and there was nothing else to be discussed; why not allow others to enjoy the joys of this place as well? "Well, it is a pleasure to meet you, Zero! What an interesting title you have." It seemed that she was content with speaking to herself, though that was nothing new; it seemed that a plethora of people were happy enough when they listened to themselves; it was something that he had learned to deal with; why make a fuss over something he was so used to; now wasn't the time after all.
"Well, it seems that this country will be obtaining the prestige it deserves, isn't that so?" Xavier looked over to the man, who only smiled in response. He must feel rather awkward in this situation; he would be fine, however. It was't like he was unaccustomed to situations such as this, correct? Xavier would only hope so. "Food, well that is something that I cannot provide. I do, however, have drinks to celebrate such an amazing situation! I suppose you could join us." With a smile he would usher the female to take a seat; he would follow his own advice and take one as well. Pouring a drink for the three he looked over to Zero and simply had to ask, "Why are you looking for a doll?" He chuckled a bit as he asked; it seemed rather odd after all.

Zero wouldn’t lie and say she wasn’t disappointed that this party of theirs would lack food. For a brief moment, she considered bidding the men farewell and going off on her own to find something to eat, preferably something sweet. However, the thought was immediately glossed over with the mention of drinks. Though not what she wanted, she wasn’t the sort of person to turn down free… well… anything really. So, there was no way she was turning this down, especially if there was a chance that the beverage was alcoholic in nature with a sweet taste.
“What kind of drink, mister?”
The brunette says as she stalks over to the man, closing the distance between herself and the males. She’s, after all, rather curious about her choices and she was really hoping that the men form of celebratory drink was champagne or something fancy - something she had never tried before. Regardless of the answer though, she would nod her head in acknowledgement before turning her attention onto the question asked of her.
To her credit, she doesn’t shoot the man an annoyed look. Sure, he was chuckling about her journey to find her dear friend, but since starting her search she has learned that not everyone was aware of the gigantic doll. So, she holds her tongue and instead, maintains her cheerful demeanor and even joins in on the chuckling.
“She’s my friend, silly.”
She giggles out, her red eyes shining in amusement.
“We met in Iceland. She tried turning me into human paste, but we become friends. Well… after I tell her that I just wanna have fun.”
She smirks:
“She’s my first friend from ‘nother side. By the way, have ya happened to see a doll bout the size of this hotel roaming around. I haven’t seen her in long time, tryna find her so we can catch up. Ya understand, neh?”
She pauses for a moment. It's just long enough for her to consider rather or not she could, potentially, get his help. But, she decides that he would be of no use - she had no plans of coming back to Panama. So, with the intentions of getting back to what they were there for, she quickly adds:
"It k if ya haven't. She real elusive. Anyways... what ya celebrating?"

Xavier looked to the man once more, who simply seemed to be out of words to express himself; perhaps he was not in the mood to risk any sort of weird remarks. He was a person who did enjoy playing things on the safe side; that was, after all, how he had gotten into this situation and how he had no choice but to hand the nation over; while he could have continued in his administration, he was already painfully aware of how little he was getting done and just how much the country was suffering. It was with this that Xavier had entered at just the right time, and just the right arrangements.
With a smile he would hand the male a glass, before looking back at the female. "It's wine. Red wine." He chuckled, it seemed she had already made up her mind; perhaps she was dependent on alcohol? Who could fault a person for having some dependencies? It was something that could be corrected, though it was not his place to interject. Handing the girl a glass, while listening to her story, he simply took a sip.
"Well, that is a rather interesting story you have there. If I had seen the creature then I believe I would have already known what it was." He chuckled once more, it seemed that she was a rather straight forward person; this was very good. Straight forward people were the best to interact with. They tended to not have many, if any, ulterior motives; it made reading the situation extremely simple. "I'm terribly sorry, we have not seen what it is that you are looking for. I would suggest staying in Panama for some time though! Panama City is a great place for entertainment."
"Yes, yes I understand. Also, we are celebrating a new age for Panama. I do hope you can stay to see it; there will be plenty of alcohol, food and dancing. This is, after all, the best place in Panama to find these things." It was with this that he would finish his glass. "Is there anything else I could help you with?" He chuckled. "If not, then it seems like you've wasted your efforts."

Zero takes a sip of her wine as she listens to the man. In the amount of time it took him to reply and boast about what Panama City had to offer, she had decided that she didn’t like wine as much as she thought she would. She looks at the glass suspiciously, a disgusted look briefly crossing her features, before she takes one more just in case. Once she confirms that this particular glass just isn’t for her, she quickly rids herself of the glass - placing it on the nearest surface without any regards to rather or not it belonged there.
“Really? That’s a shame.”
She says in regards to her friend. It’s short and simple. Her disappointment is absent, after all, she had gotten use to people knowing nothing of her friend’s whereabouts. So, her tone was more nonchalant than anything else. It didn’t matter though. It would only last for several seconds. It never took long for Zero to plaster a smile on her face and return to her happy demeanor, and this time was no different.
“If I ain’t no any better. I say ya tryna get rid of me, mister.”
She says, teasingly.
“I tell ya secret mister, no effort of my is wasted… Well… so long as we ain’t counting that time this one guy ran off to a portal cause I asked him bout the doll. But… he had issues, so that should mean something… neh?”
She waits a couple seconds, just enough time for the man to agree or disagree before continuing:
”But, if ya really want me to bounce, I gonna take the big room on this floor. Gotta take nap before I meet the President. Ya don’t mind, neh?

Xavier had decided to let the girl speak until she had tired herself, or would give him a chance to respond. In no way did he want to seem as though he was forcing the girl to leave, nor that she was unwelcome. At this point there was no reason, as far as he could tell, that anyone should be barred from celebrating. This was, after all, a joyous occasion for the country and was a time to celebrate. It was as she spoke that Xavier finished his drink, placing it on the desk and simply looked at the girl.
“I suppose that does mean something indeed. You do seem to care about this friend quite a bit! That trait of yours is something we don’t see very much of in this day and age; people are so absorbed in achieving their own goals they forget about the people around them. It’s glad to see some people can still think of others.” He chuckled, falling silent once more. It seemed she had more on her mind that she wished to say and he was, by no means, going to stop her from doing so.
“You may do as you please! While I may have seemed harsh in my prior statement, there was no ill intent. If you wish to stay and socialize you may. No one here seems to have an issue with this. If you wish to take a room to use for the night go right ahead. If you wish to stay and talk, feel free to pull up a seat. We are all, after all, free to make our own choices.” It was with this that he would motion towards the chair. Whether she stay or leave was up to her; the night was already a success.

For a brief moment, Zero considered sticking around and enjoying the festivities well into the night. However, with the party only consisting of three and the beverages being subpar, she thought it best to retire early. After all, she had a long trip ahead of her tomorrow and so, getting some much needed rest sounded like a good idea. So, with a smile, she shook her head.
“Thank ya, mister. But I think it time for bed. I got long trip, so don’t wanna be tired while flying. That’s how accidents happen.”
She chirps as she makes her way to the door. She opens it, though she does not slip out right away. Instead, she flashes the men a smile before saying:
“Good luck to ya, mister. And… goodnight.”
And with that, she slipped out of the room, the door closing behind her. With fingers interlocked behind her back, she made her way down the hall and to one of the suites. She wished she could stay longer in order to acquire a new friend. But, her mission demanded she continued to press forward. Besides, they would likely see each other again… right?
