There's no one sitting at the head of this meeting, but no one has the time to spend arranging the chairs in a careful egalitarian circle, either. For the most part the chairs remain at the desks, and the occupants are tasked with angling them this way or that to create a wobbly polygon with everyone facing vaguely center. There's coffee. There's more than one person, probably, taking accurate notes, because this is Diplomacy. There's a pleasant breeze through the busted window that occasionally turns into a paper-rustling gust. And there's work to do.
OOC | Tag this like a network post even though it's happening in person—action spam, threadjacking, branching conversations, no tag order. Make new top-level comments for new agenda items/conversation topics. Anyone can add a new thing. Please add new things. If anyone who isn't in Diplomacy wants to drop a problem/scenario as a top level (like "P.S. Bob made some nobles angry and that needs to be addressed") for everyone to talk about, please do that.
Also, mod hat: when inventing things our characters are doing or have done in the background, we're limited to little things. If something is significant enough to require a plot request, we can't say we're already doing it! But we can propose/strategize for future plot-request-sized efforts (and then do plot requests).

We were important enough to attack in the first place, so the balance may have been tipped if we had taken significant losses. But we didn't.

[ his own notes are... less copious. they're there. there's just also an increasingly detailed doodle of what might be a kraken, or a misshapen spider. ]
Maybe not as popular.

Our dear rifter Jeanne-Marie, so kind to orphans, so cruelly taken. That sounds a little better than us getting away without any fatalities.

We, Riftwatch. Not we, us.
[ He's thinking about it though. Would that be a huge betrayal. ]

Buttons can't fly. And he might be happier alone -
[ or maybe he just enjoys attacking everyone. maybe they could give him to someone they don't like. ]

You seen Ellie lately?
[ probably busy. everyone is. anyway, ]
Messere Farnon'd be good for it, too.

We would need to train riders, too. If our goal is to help people defend other cities—and the griffons have a say in who rides them, no?
