*chuckles* I know, I was there with you for a few of them.
*looks around, and notices the waiter bringing our food*
Ah, the food is here.

*the plates are sat down gently on the table, as well as two glasses and a bottle of chardonnay. The waiter nods, indicating that the food is ready for consumption, then leaves*

*takes a look at my steak*

... this smells absolutely delicious.

@souleaterfan320

Mhm.
*Tastes the chardonnay*
Good choice of wine.

*swirls the cup softly, then takes a sip*

Absolutely. Pairs well with meat based meals too.

Does it? I couldn’t tell you much about that—I’m not an aficionado.

Chief: interesting point. You seem well spoken, are you from around these parts?

@souleaterfan320

*Nods*

I live in an apartment in the inner city.

*Looks upwards and points*

There it is. The... ship. Its captain should be around here somewhere.

@Etcetera

I've done a bit of wine testing a few years back during your campaigning years. Those were the times. Things were a bit less... complicated.

Thought so, I could tell by your walk.

*looks around, then spots Harlock on the ground*

...

*looks to the other officers*

What's the EDB's ETA?

Officer 1: they said approximately 15 minutes when we left.

*the chief goes up to Harlock, helping him to his feet, bringing him to a nearby bench*

Son, what happened here? Thats an S class dogfighter personel jet that you just crashed... what rank are you?

Harlock: ... Commander. 120th fleet. We were attacked. You've got to evacuate the planet, now. Before its too late.

Chief: how long do we have?

Harlock: hard to tell... the enemy can appear from any location in an instant. This is a possible DEFCON 2 situation.

Chief: ... shit. This is bad. Thank you for your service. I'll run your message up the chain.

Harlock: *smirks* you're talking as if I'm a dead man. I've still got fight in me. Far from the grave still.

Chief: understood. Do you have any personal weapons?

Harlock: in the ship. Let me look through it briefly.

Chief: of course.

*helps him to the ship, then walks over to you*

Alright, Sok. This just got dangerous. I need you to grab your things, inform your family of the situation, then meet me at the local evacuation center. Now.

Those years may be returning sooner rather than later.

@souleaterfan320

I'm leaving most of the planning to the strategy and statistics teams. They know what demographics to hit the hardest.

I'm sure the speechwriters are loving this campaign. No major updates though.

@Etcetera

Understandable. Last I checked, you were killing it in the primaries. We're a little more than a month away from the election, surely you've got some input on that, no?

@souleaterfan320

We're going to win. Easy. The only question is by how much.

*smirks* you? The leader of an existential government? That's incredible vickie. You've reallly come a long way, I'm proud of you.

*takes a few more bites of my food, having been eating between pauses, and cleans up my face*

That was delicious. Definitely gonna come back.

Understood.

*Turns and leaves, making my way back into the city*

*Yawns*
