(Vlad, you STILL are not a Renegade, you are a Knight!)
(XETH is a Renegade...)
Xeth catches the apple in midair with his reflexes and tosses it back at Vlad. "Disgusting things, apples. You should try eating the dry, crisp fruit that we grow on Geonosis. They are very much like yams, but have the texture of dried plantains..."

Vlad dodges, and the apple lands at a what seemed expensive vase, making it fall. "I didnt do it!" said Vlad as he tossed the apples out the window for no evidence he did it.
"Obviously," says Trorn, "the Council never had any objection to people working for the Chancellor. he's the Chancellor- our entire mandate is to work for him. I think I should remind you that the Order is a servant of the Republic. We are not our own Masters. We serve the people, and we serve them through the democratic process. Anything else is abuse of power. That process gives us the Senators and the Chancellor. Never forget that we have no right to assume power just because we exist. We are given it, by the politicians who represent the people.
"The Council's objection was purely for Jedi being used in fruitless and destructive missions to hunt down Dark Siders, and the Chancellor has been very co-operative in forming an alternative solution to that issue.
"In any case, the mission isn't being hijacked. The reason we are going to his offices is because that is where Masters Yoda, Windu and Mundi are. This mission is of intense significance and discussion with the Chancellor is the proper way to proceed."

Dan Peacebringer observed the scene,staying fairly silent.Merely trying to get a grasp of what the situation was.
He agreed with the jedi who implied that politicians are not to be trusted.
Dan thought very little of them and thought that they were all corrupt.
As far as he was concerned,the only advice he could trusat were that of his fellow jedi and the council.

Lorn voiced his opinions on what he thought of politicians and decided to give a fairly sitting-on-the-fence-to-upset-nobody view that although he didn't particulary like them he thought they were necessary for the general populus and also the jedis. Without them, he wouldn't have an authoratative power to undergo investigations.
Then before he could hear a retaliation of his views, he slipped away from the group into a nearby coriddor and headed for the Chancellors office, performing backflips down the corridor as he went.

Yes, I do care- absolutely not! You are under instructions to see the Chancellor!
Today, the Senate House is an ednless hive of activity. Normally busy, the recent events have hyped up the machinations of the Government to steroid-filled levels, as senior Civil Servants run down the corridors, dealing with the bureaucratic fall-out caused by the assassination attempts, and now the removal of the Viceroy to Seronno, a direct assault on Coruscant's ability to maintain order in its own back yard.
The Jedi are under criticism too. Your mission to protect the Viceroy seemed very prone to failure. Those of who who dislike politicians may wish to appreciate that they are the only way to defend yourselves sagainst such problems. The public mood is ugly.
But around the Supreme Chancellor's offices... silence. An aura of calm and order surrounds it. Senatorial guards nod to your rather substantial party as you arrive, and after some quick security checks, let you in.
As in AOTC, the senior Jedi are seated in front of the Chancellor's desk. He himself is currently looking pensively out of the window. The mood is thoughtful. Yoda takes a side glance at all of you, looking grumpy as ever. Windu sits with his fingers lightly touching each other. Mundi takes it upon himself to act as diplomat.
"Ah, here they all are now," he says, in his careful, measured tones. "We are sorry to call you here at such short notice, but the nature of this case has pre-empted somewhat of a political crisis. It is not easy to see if there is any way to investigate any of it. We have read your reports and have discussed the situation with the Chancellor, but we are... uneasy.
"We are not entirely sure what there is to be reasonably done at this point."
