"OR!" Jun said loudly, eager to offer an alternative, "We go in there with more of a plan. I'm sure Wen will do a great Bad Cop but there's a reason they don't call the strategy 'Bad Cop, Only Cop.' Perhaps we could do Bad Cop, Beautiful Princess? Or like... stick with that reassuring princess angle and less so on the other thing?"
Jun couldn't help but think they were set up for failure. Just going talking to some hostile aliens wasn't going to get great results. They would need something to offer and begging for something from the Empress wasn't going to look good. Maybe one of the Princesses had some business thing they could do?
"We should give them some reason to work with us. Perhaps take them up into space and show them what its like living somewhere that isn't gross and full of monsters? I bet some Daqin Part--ffaaa- Parties would get them excited about not fighting us any more!" Jun said, stopping just short of saying they should do drugs with the Aos Si while in front of the Empress. That might be bad right?
