Tiam threw down the nervous soldier, patting Rio on the head. "Dangerous General...but...somehow fitting, for a man like you." Her soldiers began stowing the crates that actually did have fruits, gifts, and birds in them onto the ship, and after that, to the barracks... "Interesting times for me, that's for sure." Governor-Militant IX"Right, bye Rio. Have fun with your new family." "....what just happened?" Rio said as I walked off. I said to Tiam, "I am going to find a place for this thing. I'll be going to my cabin first. At least show you where it is and let you get settled in. Then I need to find a place for this."

The single Tinisian helicopter received the instructions very clearly and headed towards the island. A little later than the others, but still with plenty of time.
Umfaro noticed very quickly on the trip that their aids were better conversationalists than the three official representatives. He didn't mind it of course. Umfaro wasn't much of a talker as is. And he knew how much the other two didn't get along. Waldo wasn't prone to hating people but clearly didn't much care for Dizmulak. But so far the few words they have had were pleasant.
The helicopter was soon landed and the six quickly exited. They had no guards as it was expected that the security at the inauguration and the trip there would be sufficient. They did however have luggage which they quickly hauled out. All six also seemed to be wearing large blocky thick badges with the Tinisian flag's emblem on their shirts. A closer inspection of their persons would also show ear pieces.
Waldo, the raccoon stepped forward to lead the group, followed shortly behind by Umfaro, a goat, and Dizmulak, the wolf.

President Elect IXI watched a helicopter land. "Actually Tiam, I am going to bring them along too." I pointed at the Tinisians. "At least to the VIP deck." I began to run at the helicopter. I just remembered I still have the wraithwolf in my arm. Oh well, it'll be fine. When I reached the Tinisians, I said, "Sorry about that. I had an issue just a few minutes ago. Anyway, I am President Elect IX. If you'll come with me, I will bring you up to the VIP Deck." The wraithwolf in my arm suddenly went, "Squerf?"

"Well look at that," said Umfaro in Tinisian. A moment later his badge spoke in a language a little more familiar to the President-Elect: "Behold that there."
"Hello, I am Speaker Waldo," soon squawked the raccoon's badge after he said something seemingly incomprehensible. "We do not need advanced accommodations. The lowest berth is acceptable. Any generosity is pleasurable, high honor is not required. And this here is Admiral Umfaro and this is Speaker Dizmulak. We are here to represent Tinis if you would accept."
It was obvious that the translation devices were not as slick as the last time the Tinisians visited. But considering the long distances between the group's destination and whom ever it was they were getting translations from before, a portable and self contained device was needed. All the same the language was accented oddly and the word choice seemed unlikely at times.

And the lowest we have is the barracks. I have a feeling you would rather not be around 1,000 foreign soldiers for a week. So, VIP cabins. Offers an amazing view of space. "Anyway, come along. I am meeting up with another person and then we will all head into the ship." I headed for Tiam who is quite obvious. Hopefully the Tinisians are following.

Tod nodded and looked at the Leopardess. "Fair enough, but I am sure Ina there could use something to eat too" he says softly before smiling softly and stopping, letting Alani jump down and walk ahead of the group, stepping onto the lift with the group. "Interesting, so you use lifts as well..." he says, looking about and suspecting they were both button and voice command.
Casper eyed the kit before kneeling down, holding out his hand and motioning for the kit to spit his gum out, wrapping it up in a piece of paper and slipping it into his pocket for disposal later as he looked about the lift as well, his tailfeathers fanning out a bit behind him as he looked about.
Ina coughed softly and nodded, looking down at Alani, then back up at Tod, then at Nakhi. Not saying a single word.

The Tinisians did indeed follow along. Waldo and Umfaro helping with the luggage, that was thankfully wheeled. Dizmulak's aid however seemed to be pulling both suitcases and bearing a couple satchels and a back pack as well.
"It is a very good honor to be afforded this visit and opportunity," said Waldo. [OOC: Unless explicitly stated they're translators are the one's speaking]
"That creature," said Umfaro. "It would appear in similarity to a specimen of the ghost wolves of the Aatu, but is regarded differently via the fur colorations. Is that a native of your world?"

Well let's get your rooms set and then me, Ina, and Alani can head on down to the Lounge." "Luca, bring us to-" LucAI said, "Deck Six. Got it." "Okay, sorry for bursting in on your earlier and interrupting you. But we are also on a diplomatic mission. Can you be serious for it?" "Understood sir." The doors opened and we were on Deck 6. I was first to step off. I mumbled, "Stupid AIs..." Suddenly I was hit with a foam that is used for fighting on board fires. LucAI came on and said, "What was that about AIs again?"

"Do you need help with the luggage?"

"Oh no no no..." says Alueza, appearing next to Tod with a soft giggle. "Use ice water, much more shocking to the immune system, and also crappier to recover from" she adds, grinning and looking up at the motion sensor of the lift. "But good laugh..."
Ina and Alani laughed and shook their heads from side to side, supporting one-another as they did so, which looked odd as they did.

It covered the walls and ceiling, but right now I don't care. "Come along." I headed down the hall and saw that the Imperial Cabin is right in front of us. Good. I faced down the hall toward the group then pointed to the right. "Get rooms nearest to the double doors behind me. That is just so we know where to find you. The President Elect will be staying in the room behind me. You can work out your own room arrangements. Also feel free to annoy Luca. Please, annoy her as much as possible. "Be careful not to annoy the real Luca. She's this ship's Captain. The AI's personality is based off her own and the AI has the same appearance as her. If you have any other questions, ask me, any officer, or the President Elect who apparently just arrived a few minutes ago."

Hmm...is going to always be this busy?
She caught up with IX, panting in the armor. When she saw him with the Tinisians, she took his hat and the Wraithpup.
She held it up for a moment, sniffing it, before putting it, and IX's hat, on her head. She leaned down and kissed IX on the cheek.
"Who are your new friends Spaceman?"

President Elect IXThat hat... and the wraithwolf... She's a real cat... "They are the delegation from Tinis. Two Speakers and an Admiral. They arrived a little late, but it's fine. They are lucky they made it. I am leading them up to their rooms."

The group decided to pile into the first rooms on either side of the first line, right next to the imperial cabin, Alani and Ina remaining behind on the lift as they expected Nakhi to come back... of course, the bags somehow magically found themselves in the hands of the other guards and Casper.
"Quite interesting, these ships are..." says Ina, playing with the kit in her lap, scratching behind one of his ears and making him bounce about in a happy manner when she stopped, giggling softly at him with a soft smile. "And do you haaaave to have a hand on you all the time?"
"Yahuh! Yahuh!" he giggled and spun around in place a few times before finally laying down, starring down the hallway, eying Nakhi and the group as they moved about. "Ina?" he looked back and up at her. "I have a question... just between you and me?"
"Mmm?" she perked her ears and looked down at him. "What is it, kit?"
"Well..." he looked down, then back at the group, then back at her. "Do... you think papa will ever find another mommy, for me?" he didn't like asking questions like that... it make him sound so... so much like a child! But one couldn't help but wonder about Tod, and his single parent lifestyle... and how it was effecting the kit.
Ina blushed softly and chuckled a bit at the question, looking at Tod when he started to bark orders at the guards to tell them where what went. "I don't know about that one Alani... it's hard to tell what he's thinking as it is..." she sighed and smiled softly before petting the kit "Maybe one day someone might discover what is turning in his head, and pin him down... heck, for all we know, he could go to marry a princess in some far away kingdom, and suddenly, become a king, just like your great grand father did some seven hundred years ago..."

Colonel Nakhi WelhanI went into the Imperial Cabin for just a moment and went through the pantry. I really hope the little fox can eat chocolate, and I am sure IX wouldn't care that I took a bar from the room. Unlike a lot of the other food on board, this is real dark chocolate. I headed back out and to the lift. When I got there, I offered the chocolate bar and said, "I hope you call can eat these. I am not sure."
