He tilted his head toward her, curious. "You sound like you don't get to visit a lot of planets. But I do hope nothing unfortunate happens while we're here."

"Oh, no, I've been to many planets in my homeworld!" It was all part of bring the princess, after all. Good relations, good faith. She was good at obtaining and maintaining both. "With all of those who exist and live out there, it's both important and an experience to meet, understand and live with those who share the universe with you."

Dammit, Dhianeila, why were you so... nice...

He smiled a little. "Yeah. It'd be nice if we could come to an understanding with the Ohm, too." Not that he believed it was likely, with the way things were heading, but.

Are you feeling the nice vibes already, Zouichi?

"I'm sure we will, so long as we keep trying." Because what good would come out of simply giving up? Or taking the easy, bloody way out? She knew she wouldn't be happy doing either. Not so long as the mere chance existed.

The nice vibes are everywhere. And they feel so... weird. Maybe if more humans were like Dhianeila, they wouldn't be plagued with so many problems. Maybe their history wouldn't have had to be so filled with bloody conflict.

"Well, guess I'm glad someone's trying. I'm not really satisfied with what the Daligig have told us about them, anyway."

"I wish they would tell us more..." she said, a bit uneasy. "I do not want to assume that they have ill intentions, but distrust is so easily found between everybody. They, not willing to speak of many things because they may not trust our actions completely, and us, distrustful of them because of that distrust. Nothing can come out of those lines of thought."

"Don't forget the threats," Zouichi said dryly. "They sure seem better at making enemies than making friends. Kind of makes me wonder how they got such a lofty position in the GIA in the first place."
