Hello, darlings! I gather that I should make a statement about my candidacy for ambassador. Between you and me, I like to think that actions speak louder than words, but I don't want to be disrespectful to protocol!

Of course I do think my actions say plenty already. Why, back at home I've done quite a lot for the community—I organized fundraising event, charity dinners, charity bar hops, you understand. In this particular world I spend more time advising the lovelorn, but then love is very important to us all!

That's why I threw my proverbial hat in the ring! We may not all get along, but we're a community, and that means looking out for one another, and showing love to each other, and buying drinks for each other! If you feel the same way, vote Sadie Doyle!

Um, e-excuse me, Ms. Doyle? W-what's the voting age, h-here? [Sakuri is twelve (and looks ten, honestly) so it's a legit query.] Is, is it 18 l-like in the States back home or is it 20 like i-in Japan back home?

It's the former, dear, but I believe that all imPorts are allowed to vote for their representatives.

[the_red_pawn]

Okay. Is th-that a thing all imPorts c-can do? I only j-just got here so I understand if, um, well, if th-there's a rule saying I don't know enough t-to vote on this. That's fair.

Why not learn, then? You could speak to all of us candidates! If we want to represent you, we should make the time, shouldn't we?

W-well, I'm, I'm n-not going to Register j-just yet. I w-want to but, b-back home m-m-my... [deep breath, here, even as she blinks back tears,] m-my family died and, and s-sometimes I get panic a-attacks and I just, I c-can't be a hero r-right now.

So a-am I really g-going to lose m-my place to stay? A-a-and my job? That's wh-what I need to learn, right now. I-if someone's going to, to help imPorts l-like me who aren't r-ready to be Registered, th-then that's who has my vote. People should h-help other people. Especially if th-they have power.

Well hey, I can get behind a platform of "buying drinks for each other".

[marriedmedium]

It's the best way to bond, isn't it?

[shittywizard]

Sure, sure. A good drink's right up there with a good meal.

[marriedmedium]

Ooh, are you an appreciator of the culinary arts?

[shittywizard]

Sure, sure, what civilized person isn't?

A lot of organization, but very little political work, I see.

[marriedmedium]

Do you think much of politicians, dear?

[reexamined]

I think of politicians about as highly as I think of nobility or those who would consider themselves "upper class." I've found the two are always incessantly linked with poor decision making.

[marriedmedium]

That's very astute of you. They do tend to go together, don't they?

Statistically, it comes from a surplus of money which equates to power, and a lack of repercussions and marginalization. Essentially, they can afford to make bad decisions more frequently, and see no reason why to stop.

Why do you want to be an ambassador? If it's for more money and power, or out of boredom, I would appreciate your honesty.

Now Archie, it's not my doing if you can't hold your liquor!

Re: video

[h2no]

Yeah, but it's more fun with you.

[marriedmedium]

It always is, darling.

[vidiocracy]

Hmm. Love is gross, but I do like how you're not a politician.

What's your position on chanting catch phrases, social media, sealing juvenile criminal records, giving me a gun, and also giving me, like, $40?

[marriedmedium]

Neutral, for, for, neutral, and would you like that in twenties or singles?

[vidiocracy]

Twenties and sold.

You know, I was thinking about hacking your emails, but now, even though I'm still gonna do that, I probably won't leak them.

[marriedmedium]

Oh feel free, darling, but there's not much of interest there! And my only condition for the cash gift is that you must come have a drink with me.

I'm fourteen, and there's a family history of severe alcoholism on my mother's side.

[vidiocracy]

So yeah, of course.

Also can we get nachos?
