Ah, an election! Practicing democracy! Letting fate fall into the hands of the people. [This gets a grand gesture with his wrench to accompany it.] Well then, it's up to them! And plus I don't have time to get involved in moogle politics, for what little time we have here.

[He shrugs. That's about the extent of Graham's attention span for most things.]

But I guess some things are the same, no matter where you go! Even on a continent that's been closed off from the outside world for who knows how long.

[playing_hearts]

[Sigh.]

Well, you're right about that. We have enough problems with our own politics without worrying about the moogles.

[And she can sense that he's done with that topic, so moving right along.]

So how are you enjoying Mysidia, Graham?

[bright_and_blue]

Once I got over the heartache of being banned from the engine room of the airship, I have to say, I'm enjoying myself. Who knew that merely weeks into being dropped into one new continent and world to explore, that I'd have the opportunity to do it all over again. It's exhilarating! It's a privilege for us and for them.

[He's bounced back from being a big whiny baby on the airship. At least he didn't turn into a big whiny destructive baby, and the ship survived.]

It's fascinating that a whole society would cut themselves off from the rest of the world for so long, and then one day drop the metaphorical gates. I'm still assuming there's an ulterior motive here that isn't just good will and olive branch-extending, but I'll be prepared for if that happens!

[He says this pleasantly, while not-so-subtly slapping his wrench off of his hand in a menacing manner.]

[playing_hearts]

[Banning Graham from the engine room was probably a very good decision and Alice is suddenly grateful to whoever made it. But probably it's best not to mention that.]

It is interesting to see how different this place is. But I don't think they could have remained isolated for much longer in any case. We can't expect the calamity to stay dormant forever.

[And eventually it would reach the people here. It only makes sense for them to support efforts to stop it before the threat is at their doorstep.]

[bright_and_blue]

Indeed! Eventually, the Calamity would come crashing down on them. If it didn't take the whole continent at once, then next, the Empire rolls in and takes over whatever's left. Another point in their favor! But we got here first. So that's something. They should also consider themselves lucky that it was us that got here first, then.

[playing_hearts]

If the empire has any sense at all, they'll be looking for ways to keep the calamity at bay instead of invading anyone.

[Not that she has much faith in the empire having sense.]

Actually, since the research on magic here is much more advanced, I'm hoping we can gain some insight into the calamity while we're here.
