Sci-Fi RP Negotiating the Way of Space Elven Connections

[Knight_of_None]

(XD Mala: Hm. I will have to careful on this planet while I add to my harem.)

Mala'konzo stood up. "Greetings. As Envoy of the Empire, I have been tasked to lead the fore front of our diplomatic initiative...I seek only to negotiate a resolution to your leaders . We come with peace"

 

[RedCoat]

"I see... And you bring what, in trade?" The Canus asked, still frowning from behind those crossed arms "I do hope it isn't merely slaves. That practise is outlawed in our systems."

 

[Knight_of_None]

"We do not bring slaves, nor do we enslave. Our great mission to see yiur sector join our Empire, willingly. We have a convoy of only diplomats and merchants. "

 

[RedCoat]

The Canus raised an eyebrow, looking at Mala, then clearly down to Miria and Void "No slaves, hmm?" He replied, shaking his head slightly "Fine. Your vessel may enter our space, but any others will be fired upon should they attempt to cross our borders. Is this understood?"

 

[Knight_of_None]

"My convoy will have to have a place to stay, they are my retinue. " He said said simply. "They will not cross your border but may they remain nearby to reconvene with my vessel once we pass through?"

 

[RedCoat]

"They may remain in your space." The Canus captain replied, before signalling to another officer off screen "Our task force will remain here, whilst the Unending Devotion escorts you and your vessel to our homeworld for your negotiations."

 

[Knight_of_None]

"Very Well." Mala'konzo said as he gestures to his captain. "We will follow the vessel. " He said standing up from the captains seat. "We will signal our transports of the situation."

 

[RedCoat]

His captain nodded, gesturing to the Helm even as the communications officer was already transmitting to the other vessels. If Mala cared to look, he'd notice that the vessel they were following, The Unending Devotion, was the smallest in the group that had intercepted him. A few moments later, a hail came through from the vessel.

 

[Knight_of_None]

"Accept Hail." Mala'konzo said. The computer system automatically spinning up the transmission, Alefen technology decoding the other. He examined the small ship, folding his arms

 

[RedCoat]

"Yessir!" The response was immediate, the screen snapping on to reveal a much more sparse bridge, all 4 members of the crew visible behind the Captain as they leant forwards "This is The Unending Devotion. Please remain within 20,000 miles of us, or else we will take it as an attempted subversive act and have no choice but to disable your vessel." This one was... ever so slightly cuter than the last, and the voice was... indistinguishable. Somewhere between male and female.

 

[Knight_of_None]

Mala raised an eyebrow. "Acknowledged, we will maintain speed...forgive me, but your species has caught me in a interesting position. "

 

[RedCoat]

The Captain had already turned to gesture to one of their crew, before turning back with a raised eyebrow "An interesting position? In what manner?" They asked him, crossing their arms.

 

[Knight_of_None]

"Are all of your species so...Androgynous?" He asked curiously. "The Commander I saw was a male, but I'm more than certain it would be easy not to notice such a thing from an outsiders gaze."

 

[RedCoat]

The Captain paused at the question, tilting their head before processing the question properly and mulling it over "Ah. Yes. Unfamiliarity would do that... To us, gender identity is easily discerned by scent." They shrugged "I forget sometimes other species are so visual reliant."

 

[Knight_of_None]

"We've yet to cross threshold to say whether or not Aelfen senses are so far from yours." He said simply. "We shall have to see what comes."

 

[RedCoat]

"As you say, Diplomat." The Captain replied, before the link cut out, leaving him facing an empty screen as his ship followed The Unending Devotion onwards.

 

[Knight_of_None]

As the sheet cut, he tapped his chin. "Hm. Adding one to our number would be incredibly useful in showing our developments. But I would have to inspect carefully."

 

[RedCoat]

Miria tilted her head at his words "But we already have a dog, Mawa." She spoke out of turn, gesturing to where Void lay at his feet.

 

[Knight_of_None]

He chuckled. "Bold. " He said simply to her questioning tone. "Our dog is so good, but a Canus is further relationship building."

 

[RedCoat]

"Hmm..." Miria looked away, hiding her jealous look from him as he further stated his desire to acquire another Harem member. But before Mala could push it further, the sensor operator spoke up "Sir, we're entering the Canus system now. Orbit will be in 10 minutes." The Comms technician then spoke up as well "Receiving hail from the planet."

 

[Knight_of_None]

"Excellent pass it through " He said as he nodded to the Comms technician, letting Miria stew inti her jealousy fid the moment.

 

[RedCoat]

"Aye." Was the response, before the screen flicked on and revealed a non-military Canus, their outfit definitively feminine this time "Ah, Envoy... Konzo? Forgive me, my understanding of your peoples naming conventions still needs development... Welcome to Cradle. Our homeworld."

 

[Knight_of_None]

"Mala'konzo. It is one structure." He said simply as he folded his hands . "Thank you for receiving me so willingly. The Sanguine Empire will be pleased to hear our presence is accepted."

 

[RedCoat]

She raised a hand, shaking her head “Ah ah. Accepting a singular diplomat and the Empire at large are two different things, Envoy. I think we should wait, until you and I talk in person to make declarations like that.”

 

[Knight_of_None]

"Ah, but I am the first, it does not mean we will never contact eachother again. I enjoy keeping a finger in the pulse of my diplomatic relationships" He said

 

[RedCoat]

"Mmm. I think you are definitely ahead of yourself, Envoy. You are an Empire of Slavers, coming to a planet where we still remember the chafe of collars. We shall not so swiftly throw ourselves into yours, gilded as it may be."

 

[Knight_of_None]

"Service and Slavery are quite different. As are Ally and Imperial connection. We do not seek to collar your people nor your worlds." He said shaking his head.

 

[RedCoat]

"Perhaps you'll convince of that yet, Envoy. You'll find a landing pad waiting at Secondus Shuttle Port. We're sending clearance codes for your landing now." Her voice was cold "I shall greet you upon your arrival."

 

[Knight_of_None]

Mala'konzo gestured to the captain. "I anticipate meeting with you." He said as he bowed his head to her. "We will see eachother shortly."

 

[RedCoat]

“Yes. We shall.” She replied, before the transmission cut off and Mala was left on his bridge, his mind turning to the hostility she’d met him with.
