So -
[ Kitty sounds, in her usual mode, sensible and direct. ]
I've been listening, and I've not heard much chatting about the election of the Divine over the crystals, which makes me suspect that everyone's doing it privately. But it seems to me that this is the sort of thing which we ought to be talking about as honestly as possible.
So - who's the best candidate? In your opinions. And what can we do to make sure the dreadful ones don't win?

[Ha ha ha, comedy.]

Yeah, obviously, who's the best candidate in definitely-not-your-opinion, in someone-else-who-looks-and-sounds-and-talks-and-thinks-exactly-like-you's opinion.
no subject
[Infuriating, he knows.]
I can only assume you have your own opinions on the matter. Or rather, someone like you must.
no subject
What's that supposed to mean?
no subject
Only that most people should.

Forgive me. I meant, someone-who-looks-and-thinks-like-you must have one.

Right. Yes. That. [ The joke they'd literally just been making. Kitty rubs her nose, and clears her throat, and says - ] Erm - well - I guess - that person's not quite made up her mind yet.
no subject
I'm shocked.

Setting aside the matter of Grand Cleric Clorentine and the fact that none of us will be casting a vote, my preference would be for the candidate from Cumberland. We could do with a sure hand Nevarra would rally behind.

That's - Agathe, right?

People are practiced at believing their security relies on the reach of their nation's arm. Whether it's reasonable or not, it's something that can be levered in either direction to our advantage.
Theoretically [as they are speaking purely in hypotheticals here in this open forum in front of the Maker and everyone], a Nevarran Divine marshals some order out of Nevarra long enough to turn their attention outward and reinforce the effort against Corypheus and the Venatori. Whether the fantasy of that order holds beyond that is debatable, but it benefits our work immediately without razing the whole continent under the weight of some Exalted March.
