    Seb (panel 2) is acting exactly how I feel most of the time; but I
    haven’t been doing anything strenuous let alone dancing like a teenager !

    It seems my option 3B (TGW920)was the closest I got – IF ambassador
    Mitchel is telling the truth.
    If he isn’t then my option 3A was the closest I got.
    At this point I think Jochi suggesting ‘the humans still occupy the
    position and the wolf empire intelligence is wrong’ is more or less
    right.
    If so then he is lying and loyal to to core; and thus attempting to
    manipulate ambassador Palas into the least favorable position he
    can take

      President Hitam not withstanding, I would still check my watch (which
      has day and date displays) plus two calendars, if a Lamian official
      told me what day a it was. Somehow I doubt Palas is likely to be any
      more trusting of Mitchel.

      yes yes.. Palas needs to check.! all info he has is ‘no human has
      been here.’ (for a while) , now there is a fully staffed embassy.?
      I personally think ,. the Lamian PTB females realized what the
      Catians were doing, had Council President Aadam Hitarn an Loria
      Brushear send a rep to help..

    Food for thought:

    I found this a couple of days back. I think it goes a long way
    towards explaining a lot of what we see happening these days.

      Excellent ideas and consideration of the issue.

      Yes. The cultivation of one’s own mind is of dire importance.

    I find Mitchel’s grin very disturbing at best lol which makes me
    think the humans have decided to play the long game and not make a
    move until the Empire is relaxed and caught with their pants down
    it’s a tactic that’s been done many many times by governments in
    the real world. Need an example? Cuba, we helped Castro take over
    and then he turned on us and went with Russia and communism. I was
    just a boy when the Bay of Pigs happened but I’ll never forget how
    close we came to WWIII.

      But then, their new President might have personal reasons
      for wanting things to go well:

        They do have an emerging military and trade empire as neighbors. Forgiving
        as the Caitians are it would be stupid not to play nice with them. They
        probably also have gotten wind on how new this Empire is new to space
        warfare and has seen how frightfully effective they were. Considering they
        have done this with nearly no stellar infrastructure and haven’t even an
        entire world behind them? What happens if they do? Sure, we don’t know how
        much he has found out about this new Empire, but the more they do find out,
        the more it is in their interest to be on their side.

        If they have guessed that by now the Empire controls the officially
        known access points to their sector of space, their backdoor becomes
        extremely important. Anyone can see that this can break any stalemate
        at Caitia and Dogusia. Not only strategically, but this would enable
        the Empire to wage a lengthy trade war. If the indications and guesses
        are correct, the Core Worlds would be at a severe disadvantage. If their
        fleet is as outdated and small, they would be hard pressed to protect
        their border, enabling the Empire to raid their shipping freely. Not
        only would that interfere with their profits, it also slows the build-up
        of their fleet. At the same time the Empire gains transports and their
        cargo while expanding their own forces and those of their allies.

        With the asteroid mining and production alone the Empire’s takeover of
        Terra was already inevitable. Now expanding on earth will add the personal
        they need in the long run.

        The one thing that will stop the Empire from conquering the Core Worlds is
        in numbers of their population. While we don’t know how many core worlds
        there are, I doubt that Terra and Caitia have the numbers to conquer them
        all, even if they could use their entire population and those of their new
        allies. However, as long as the Core Worlds don’t know this they’ll be
        fearing exactly that. That would make it easier in the eventual peace
        negotiations.

        Sorry for the lengthy post, but I only recently discovered this comic
        and had to get some of my thoughts of my chest.

    Was worried for a moment previous page Seb might get mugged
    in the park, but it looks too nice for that. Then we find
    that he “mugged” himself on the dance floor!

      LOL Being an “older gentleman” myself all I can say is ummm…

      “Toldya sooooo!” I knew he was going to go straight to somewhere he
      could lay down and whimper and moan softly while waiting to “die” lol.
      Still he’s got to be in decent health just to keep up with her!
      Sad thing is what would happen if she wanted to go dancing with him again?
      “I would have to say no because my legs aren’t on speaking terms with
      me right now” lol

        As the song says “I ain’t as good as I once was, but I am as good
        once as I ever was” implying that afterwards they are wrecked for
        days or weeks as opposed to doing it again day after day. I know
        the feeling when I pick up and move things I shouldn’t because I
        can. Then for days after I am pressed to just lift my arms
        without pain.

      That’s why he was looking around before he collapsed. No witnesses. He hoped.

    We all gotta go sometime Seb, but what a way to go!
    You rock, Seb!
    I’d tip my hat to you in admiration. That is, if I wore one.
    I will offer you an entire bottle of Motrin.

    I’d count my fingers after shaking hands with Ambassador Mitchel.

    Yeah. Of course that is not a trap at all, right?
