[ This time, Bucky looks... a bit more composed than his previous broadcast. Not that he's feeling better, exactly, but he's recovered his determination. His drive. He wants to be done with this place, or maybe stop people from disappearing, and for all of these, he needs information. And to get information efficiently - as Una pointed out, one needs to find a way to talk to the Emperor without pissing her off. ]

[ Which Bucky definitely wasn't feeling up for, when she made her broadcast. But there would be other opportunities, he's sure, and he'd rather make ready. ]

Hey, all.

Sorry to bother you, but I was thinking... it's been brought up that the Emperor doesn't react too well to getting asked the same thing over and over again. So maybe if those who've been to audiences share what they've asked - answers entirely voluntary, obviously - that might make it easier for all of us, next time we get a chance.

What do you say? All entirely voluntary, of course.

[ Have at it. ]


ooc: Threadjackings and discussions entirely welcome.

Well, uh...

[ He didn't expect that kind of question. ]

Generally, one would have a standing deal. The big baddie moves on to something else afterwards, and you've bought yourself some number of merry centuries before it swings back around to try to snack once more.

So you're saying the Emperor should sacrifice everyone and set up some sort of arrangement with it that gives it what it wants, to the benefit of no one else, rather than try to get rid of it for good.

Because that won't backfire in the least.

I'm not saying it's right, but it is one of the easiest available solutions. Most don't go out of their way to provoke malevolent eldritch beings.
