The corners of Fimbulvetr's mouth tighten slightly.
"I object to the phrase 'harem.' You make me sound like a being with base sexual desires."

Of course, the three of us here are not the only powers of note in the Muffinville area. However, of the others..." She begins to count off on her fingers. "Black Isles controls significant assets, but has fallen into a certain disarray due to the eccentric behavior of Azer. The Steel Talons only deploy during periods of significant military threats, and we have been able to achieve a certain amount of cooperation with them in the past. We have also been able to negotiate at least standing truces with other powers of note in the area, such as Raleigh and Lord Bones."
"However, as it currently stands the CTC still knows little of both of your organizations, and in particularly, their goals and philosophies. And while things appear to be peaceful in this area at the moment, there does always remain the potential of a significant threat to Muffinville and its environs. The Brotherhood has made two efforts to dominate the world in the past, and while it has largely collapsed recent signs have suggested it may be gathering its strength once again. There is also the entity known as Nokel, who has devastated the other major continent on this world, and while it appears to be quiescent for the moment, we have suspicions that it will eventually try to move against Muffinville at some point in the future. So in anticipation of potential future threats, I would like to use this opportunity to learn more about both yourselves and your organizations, in the hopes of determining whether or not you will be willing to considering cooperating against any future threats to this community."
The waitress, meanwhile, quickly nods at Smash's order, and dashes back into the kitchen!
Fimbulvetr listens close, taking a mouthful of her coffee at the end of Pleasance's speech.
"I understand... very good. However, I would hate if Mister Daisaku and I took over the conversation entirely."
She grins at Pleasance.
"In return, you will tell us more about the CTC. Agreed?"
