Since people at least have their civilizations worked out: let the trash talking begin.

We make better toasters than anyone else. We also make better ice cream bowls, ice cream scoops, spoons and food-storage appliances than everybody else. Our chocolate syrup is second to none, and for those of you still hording prewar HIDE Raspberry Syrup, well f**k you.

There is a new STOGD?
WHY WASN'T I INFORMED!

Get your ass in the pertinant threads.

It's "OF-ICE" and "OF-VOD," you fool. Look at this sign of quality! They can't even spell their name right! Even ARSE could do that, and they were drunk six ways from Sundays and passed out on the day of rest!

I would claim an advantagein Biotech(being able to "uplift" non-sentients you know) We also would claim some advantage in engineering*designing tentacles that actually work cant be easy)

Other thn that, the Union is open to Alliances and treaties

The Aegean Exordium would like to make some kind of treaty with you. We think we can do pleasurable things with tentacles and would like to hire some of your finest masseuses.

hmm... So long as your species can survive in an aquatic environment, or make reasonable accmodations to keep the gills of a Cephapod wet such an agreement would be possible. We even have individuals who would be perfectly willing to do other things wth said tentacles

Other than that, would a general trade agreement or mutual defense treaty be to your liking?

Sounds great to us, we have gill implants if need be.

Excellent

The Stuart Corporation announces its market push of supreme quality biotech and cloning technology.

As generally new in the interstellar community, we'd love to open diplomatic negotiations, including trade treaties and possibly alliances, with any reasonable space power.

The Aquarian Union would be happy to provide our sevices as Bioengineers to the Stuart Corporation.

We are quite sure that the the Stuart Corporation does not need biotechnological service from other (possibly inferior) sources, we are willing to allow foreign scientists to exchange ideas and possible technology, for a reasonable counter-offer, of course.

This Grand Larceny brought to you by the Black Alliance.

That would also be acceptable... We have a project that we would like you to participate in

"The Star Kingdom of Serenity does not recognize the existance of the so-called Black Alliance save as a wholly illegitimate clan of pirates. Members of the Black Alliance shall receive no war-tribunal protections under existing interstellar law save that proscribed for pirates. That is to say, none. Should any vessel flying the flag of the Black Alliance enter Star Kingdom space, it will be considered a vessel of piracy without letter.

"The Star Kingdom appeals to the civilized powers of the universe to reject recognition of this Black Alliance as a co-equal nation-state. The nations of the galaxies, both new and old, must band together against common thievery and protect the lifeblood of trade."

*beep* *Beep* *beep* *beep* *beep*

The Aquarian Union concurs with the delegate from the Star Kingdom. Piracy must not be tolerated in any form.

The Star Kingdom would do well to remember it isn't at the top of the heap these days. Those nations that choose to mistreat those of the Alliance WILL be mistreated in kind. Those, however, who observe our status as a nation-state will be released at a neutral port.

The HAB considers such condemnations to be useless gestures, the scum of the galaxy will not fear mere threats of what might happen should they prove incompetent. Only through the direct application of firepower at the source will the problem be removed.

The act of piracy is a crime against the freedom of merchants to control their goods. It is intolerable. Our merchant marine are armed, an they will resist. Any Alliance ship that attempts to dock at one of our ports will be Tractored in place, scanned before they dock, scanned after the dock, searched, and no illicit goods or transactions will pass through or take place at our ports.

Any attack on our merchant marine will be met wth deadly force, and will be considered an act of war against the Union.

Your vessels have been observed to prey on Star Kingdom-flagged merchant vessels in neutral space and even neutral ports since your "inception" as an organization rather than a loose pack of rabble. You would do well to remember that your drunken, loose and pathetic excuse for spacers are no match for the trained spacers of the Royal Navy.

Now, if your Alliance decides to join the rest of civilization and act in a wholly responsible, civilized and orderly fashion we may decide to grant your shipping the 'rights' that all others have.

Failing that, we may as well feed you to the Ambassador to the Lost.

While the Star Kingdom agrees in principle with this, the Royal Navy is stretched thin and is unable to undergo unilateral offensive operations without leaving the rest of the Kingdom dangerously exposed to attacks by aggresive third parties. The HAB would do well to remember the Great War that occured three hundred years ago and the opportunistic attacks of the Kzin.

It's not diplomacy. If you're sending a message that we can't understand, it's not diplomacy.
