rah you're not supposed to show your lightsaber....unless you pretend to be a jedi..and i thought we passed on that. No unnecessary trouble..remember?
"my friend..i'm sure we could avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble by you granting us clearance.." says Takuan
now...i'm not sure if entrancement would work....so as to make him give the clearance and rpepare everything, while the team boards the ships...then i could be the last to leave his office and board myself..and take off. what exactly does a ..stupout mean? i'm not sure persuade would do it.
"dear sir...as reasonable people i am sure you can make ONE exception from this precation. and i assure you. if we are to experience any failures with the ship, we take full responsibility and will not blame you.
perhaps there have been exceptions in the past, perhaps not. but please understand that we are in quite of a hurry, and can lose no more time.
in any case...be sure of us spreading the news of your thoroughness in technical details...which is quite impressive"
*sigh* (so the older you get (in thousands of years) the more boring you get...)
ILLUSION on him. Takuan makes him see his eyes transcend into a bright red and then appear back to normal as he gets visibly angered, but still able to control his words.
"Now listen to me!" he starts. "we shall be on our way in those ships by the end of this day. that is a certainty...of which i am suggesting you not to doubt. Now we can do it simply and politely, to avoid any trouble or we can cause a lot of ...unpleasanties. We wish not to condone such course of actions but given the circumstances of our immediate need of departure, we a re forced to. and rest assured, you can well do without troubles from us!"
