ooc; okay, so I figured the easiest way for me to do this was to set up the post and then set up two different threads: one for canon-alignment shifted Peony, one for AUDark!Peony, so...yes. :|b
[You are clearly the best Emperor Peony. Not that he realizes you are not, in fact, his Emperor. Seriously he wants to hug Peony but contents himself with just looking SUPER EXCITED.]
I had no idea you were considering something like this. What did you have in mind for project?
[Robots and airships and cars and new ways of lighting and long range radio and more efficient data storage devices...]
Most of theoretical research is tied up in a new energy source. I think mechanically we can help with that--and when a source is found, we'll need to develop engines and means of storing and conducting that energy.
I don't know, what would you suggest? I'm sick of Malkuth being behind the times. We have one of the best fontech experts at our disposal, it's about time we started taking advantage of that.
I don't know with that guy. I'd like to think our friendship and history makes some kind of difference, but you know how he is about Jade. He sees anyone that gets in between him and Jade as an enemy, and sometimes that even includes me - or you for that matter, I bet.
Exactly. But, if you want to try talking to him, I wouldn't object. The most important thing is you're involved. You're the future, and I'm sure you have more than enough bright ideas that you can do this with or without Saphir.
[a beat] Hell, if you're lucky I'll send you to an island of scantily clad girls. Try to contain yourself. You wouldn't want to shame Malkuth with your lechery.

You want Dist to be on the project? I think that's probably a good idea if he agrees to it.

Thank you, but I'm still an amateur. Did you want Dist involved?

Don't send me to your dream vacation, sir.

You'll take charge of this project? It's important to me to better our country, and I think this is a great way to start.
no subject
Of course. I said I would. It's an honor, and it really would be a lot of fun.
no subject
So, besides that, how are you doing?
no subject
I'm fine, Your Majesty. And you?
