Pokemon Umbral Discussion 36: Questions Are Overrated

Oh SNAP.
...
Wait a minute...

Also, dude. This isn't about better leader, worse leader. If this was about having the best leader, I never would have made this deal and Impact would keep his position. So hard. You wouldn't believe how hard he'd keep it.

I want Charlotte for a leader. It is part of the concession you have to make to me in return for concessions I will make to you. That is what is called a compromise. Of course, I've made arguments for why Charlotte would be a good leader, even tried to argue that she'd be better (and I think she is best suited, for the purposes of this deal, since, like I said, neutral ground). But I did so less because I have any duty to prove, but to persuade you to agree to this deal.

Saying that I do have a duty to provide sufficient proof that Charlotte would be a better leader than Pierce, and you'll refuse the deal otherwise...

Well, perhaps you're right in saying that you haven't been unreasonable so far. Probably, in fact. But refusing on those grounds? I'm not so sure about that. I have made you a fair offer. Modify it, if you will. I might be willing to make a few smaller compromises. Depends on what else you want. So make me an offer. But please, cease this unimaginative rejection of my every attempt at finally bringing this infernal business to an end.
