[002 - video/action for Spero] Luffy's so screwed

[gomugomunowin]

[Hi Discedo. Today on the network, you have Luffy again. He has a serious look on his face, as though contemplating something. What a shock. He turns to the cameraa and speaks.]

Hey, I've got an important question.

[Wow, he looks serious. Obviously, this is something important.]

What does "seducing" mean? [..................or not.] I was talking with Japan about it, but I still don't get it. --ah, maybe I shouldn't have said that......

--hell, you never told me the reason. [Well.....Luffy kinda had a reason? Saving his friends and family and all.]

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

For what?

[straw_hat]

That you're all fighting!

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

Ah. Well. Serbia shot and killed an Austrian prince.

[straw_hat]

....what the hell does that have to do with you guys?

[WW1 YOU ARE SUCH A BITCH.]

((YOU'RE TELLING ME.))

Ah, well Austria is my ally, so it only made sense that I went to his aid when Austria requested... well, an apology from Serbia, you could say.

[straw_hat]

If all you wanted was an apology, why the fuck are you starting a war!?

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

I didn't want the apology, I only wanted to help an ally, and I hardly wanted war to begin. As for Austria and Serbia: Austria took a very reasonable ultimatum upon Serbia due to what had happened in order to maintain peace and avoid war. Serbia complied to everything except one, which was the investigation into what had happened the day of the shooting, with Austrian officers so to assist in the cause. When Serbia outright rejected such a reasonable offer, Austria was completely outraged. The whole mess would have been extinguished then and there if Serbia had complied to such a simple request.


((blah i screwed up with the Prince bit before, I meant the archduke was shot. Whatever, nobody liked him anyway.))

[straw_hat]

You guys have too much complicated shit going on.

[Psh, I don't really care. WW1 was a bitch, anyway.]

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

Ye-es. I'm not sure any of us saw it coming until it was already too late.

((part of why i love it (8 ))

[straw_hat]

Geez, you guys are stupid.

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

Oh? What would you have done, if I might ask?

[straw_hat]

Just kicked their asses right from the start!

Or ignore 'em, since I don't get it.

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

See, with this solution we lack all diplomacy. Diplomacy that separates a world power from a rebel state. We can't "kick their asses", as you say, right from the start because that makes us look like savage fools who have made absolutely no attempt to reconcile and put the porblem behind us, and ignoring the problem is out of the question because a man was shamelessly murdered. I'm not sure what sort of world you grew up in, but murder without military cause or legitimate error is not acceptable in any society I can think of off the top of my head. Some form of justification has to be presented in order for us to begin kicking ass and taking names. or so my brother has described it.

[straw_hat]

I don't get it, but okay. [WHOOSH ALL OF THAT JUST WENT OVER HIS HEAD.]

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

((SIIIIIGGGHHHH))

You solution isn't effective. There. Simple.

[straw_hat]

Have you tried it?

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

((Thinks about it a moment. Wavers.))

Yes. It doesn't work.

((France... Germany is losing his flare.))

[straw_hat]

Then you did it wrong. It always works.

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

You're right, I did do it wrong.

[straw_hat]

Told ya. [He never helps, no.]
