[ WHAT AN EXCELLENT SEGUE ]

! I KNOW!

What kind of peace is it if it means they're trapped in some cold political arrangement?

[followhim]

it's not good for them, and it's not good for the people. it might distract people for a little while but it's putting a bandage on a bigger issue at most. all those rebels that wanna go to war over on your side aren't gonna stand down if the empress marries the empress of the side they wanna fight. it doesn't make any sense.

[forcevisions]

Good. Then Nama won't agree to it, and they'll both be happier because we'll find something better. Something that doesn't ask them to sacrifice their own happiness for peace.

[followhim]

yeah, the problem is that is the coming up with something better. you got something better? because i don't.

[forcevisions]

Well ... no.

[followhim]

maybe someone else will when we all talk about the proposal. we can't be the only ones who feel like this about it, can we?

[forcevisions]

The only other idea I've heard someone share so far has been worse.

[followhim]

what's that?

[forcevisions]

Military action.

[followhim]

isn't that what we're trying to avoid? unless you mean martial law?

[forcevisions]

It's exactly what we're trying to avoid. That's why I said it was a bad idea.

[followhim]

yeah, let's not bring up war at the proposal to avoid war.

i'm joking, i know what you mean. it's just rough that there doesn't seem to be many other options

[forcevisions]

It would be easier if the people would just listen to their leadership.

[followhim]

well, yeah, but

i don't know, i'm reluctant to say stuff like that. sometimes leadership needs to be questioned. maybe not this time, but ...

[forcevisions]

Yeah, but this isn't questioning! This is open revolt. No one's trying to listen to anyone. They're just acting like they know better.

[followhim]

well that's why we're here, right? to smooth things out. maybe hathaway should come home with us

[forcevisions]

So that guild Ophelia could tell us to arrange a political marriage or accept oblivion?

Now I'm imagining Leia marrying Snoke. This is your fault.

[followhim]

THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT

[forcevisions]

Oh, are you volunteering in her stead?

[followhim]

no one is having a political marriage!

[forcevisions]

You're the one who wanted to involve Hathaway

[followhim]

you're right, that's what I get for expecting any other solutions besides marriage. I brought that one on myself

[forcevisions]

I'm sure they'd find you a nice dowry.

[followhim]

what would they even find for a dowry??

[forcevisions]

I'm sure there's something stashed away at one of the old rebellion bases. Oh! Or maybe a nice tree.
