Official Statement from The Proletariat Commonwealth of The Island of Rose:

You are all cordially invited to the wedding of Sergei Ilyanov and Diane Radir. Food is free, dancing of all types from salsa to polka will be there, a dueling match between the Island's best fencers will be played out, and hell, it's gonna be a party. The event is black tie, any citizen or politician is welcome to come. Weapons are not allowed in the event except by the groom and bride. Having weapons will lead to the police touching you in your naughty parts. The wedding will be held in front of the Villa and Sergei Kreshnech will be heading the Wedding. The Ministry of The Island of Rose will also be there if you have questions. The wedding is in 5 days, I don't have a clear day. People are welcome to come early. And remember, have fun!

A Frisbeeterian G2S-CJ corporate jet lands at the primary TIOR airport and requests clearance to taxi to the diplomatic gates. Upon arrival, a single man debarks and heads for the entrance. He carries a rigid folio case approximately three feet by four feet, which he carefully keeps from dragging the ground.


"My credentials," he says simply. He presents to the TIOR official a Frisbeeterian Diplomatic Passport in the name Damien Jernberg, which identifies him as member of the Frisbeeterian Permanent Trade Embassy. As the official finishes his examination, Jernberg points to the folio.

"While this would ordinarily be considered the Diplomatic Pouch and immune from search, I don't believe that TIOR has officially recognized the Frisbeeterian Corporate States. With that provisio, I have been authorized to inform you that this is a gift for your President's wedding. I am further authorized to allow you to scan it via whatever security apparatus you normally employ, with one exception. This is a work of fine art and may consequently be damaged by intense ultraviolet radiation. If you can guarantee UV will not be used and that I will be permitted to accompany the package at all times, we will waive usual diplomatic courtesies."

"Once you are satisfied with the results, I would appreciate an opportunity to contact your Chief of Diplomatic Protocol to arrange for safe storage pending the arrival of Director Riegel on the morrow. My thanks in advance."


[OOC] this doesn't need to be RPed out any further unless you want to, but is intended as the first diplomatic step in establishing a Trade Embassy with TIOR. The wedding and the gift are a convenient excuse.

The official nods. "Guards!" Two men in SWAT equipment and armed with HK G36 Commandos looked at the Frisbeteerian Official. The official points to one of the guards. "Just standard for improptu visits so to speak. The taxi will take you now."

The guards escorted the Frisbeteerian inside the taxi. The taxi took a right, arriving at Embassy Row. In front of them was a large Villa, left and right were large embassies with various flagpoles of their respective flags up. The taxi had to swerve around chairs, tables, things that were getting set up for the wedding. Finally, the taxi arrived, well, after doing a donut to avoid a glass penguin... the guards stepped out, one pointing to the Villa.

"Ring the bell." He said. He gripped his gun, ready to aim as soon as he turned around. Not to shoot of course...

Throughout the wild taxi ride, Jernberg gripped the case with great care and not a small amount of fear. Frisbeeterian automated traffic controllers had not prepared him for this sort of automotive insanity, and he was still a fairly junior member of the trade delegacy. The mission to TIOR had been described as a package delivery and presentation of credentials. Obviously someone at the Bureau hadn't researched the Rose file as well as he would have liked.

He exited the cab with a bit of a wobble, and walked towards the door. How the hell do you hold a folio case containing a framed painting in an unthreatening manner, he wondered? Well, only one way to find out ...

He pressed the doorbell once, then again.

He pressed the doorbell once, then again.

The doors appeared to open almost magically. The central room was beautiful. Two large staircases in red carpet, marble floors, paintings of historical figures, vases, and a sword display in between the stairs. A man in an army uniform was standing in front of Jernberg. He looked like a Major. He raised his brow.

"You must want to see Sergei. Follow me." He led him up through the staircase. He went down a hall with more paintings, took a left and finally arrived at Sergei's office.

"Oh yes! YES! Oh my God!" It appeared to be a female's voice to be heard. It was probably Diane. The Major chuckled.

"Well, you can take it from here. Just knock." He went back downstairs, probably to help in security.

It's got to be someone else, their Protocol Chief or someone. Or maybe not? Better safe than sorry.

Damien straightened his spine until it practically cracked, smoothed his tie and pushed back a stray lock of hair, and decided he was ready. He raised his right hand to the glorious walnut-panelled door and knocked firmly.

The door creaked open. The scene? Diane and Sergei, playing HALO.

"Oh my God yes! I beat you!" Diane yelled as she started doing a little victory dance.

Sergei frowned, looking at Diane. Diane stuck out her tounge. "I guess you're not the champion are ya?"

Sergei grinned. He stood up and picked her up, giving her a nice long kiss which lasted for two minutes. Which is the time he noticed a diplomat standing there. She sat Diane down on the sofa they were playing in and then Sergei joined her. Sergei chuckled. "I am President Sergei Ilaynov and this is my fiancee Diane." They looked at each other and gave each other a light kiss.

Sergei stood up and extended his hand. "And you are?"

The room was nice. Rosian flags on both sides. A rug with a hammer and sickle with a red background. Blue carpet. A desk with a large window behind it. And a small sofa with a T.V. with an X-Box connected to it. Diane stood up and hugged Sergei by the waist as she rested her head on his shoulder.

"Yes who are you?" Diane said.

Damien tipped his head and shoulders towards the couple. It was one of those fractional bows that only professional diplomats and unemployed second-rate royalty have the time to perfect.

"My name is Damien Jernberg, and I'm with the Frisbeeterian Trade Embassy. You pardon, Sir, Madam - I had expected to meet with someone from your Diplomatic Corps. I apologize for the intrusion."

"I bring you greetings for your upcoming nuptials from Director Riegle, Chief Executive Officer of the Frisbeeterian Corporate States. He wished the Directorate to present this token of esteem towards the Island of Rose and the new First Couple ... but of course he expected to offer it to you tomorrow. I intended to give it to your Chief of Protocol for safekeeping, with Director Riegle to present it upon his arrival." He shrugged lightly, and his lip curled slightly in wry embarrasment. "I can't exactly tell you not to look at it, now can I, Mister President?"

He carefully opened the folio revealing a lovely silver-wrapped package inside. It was obviously a picture frame from the shape, but the content was hidden by the wrapping.

"It would appear that my instructions to leave this in secure hands can be met after all, Sir." He took the package in both hands, and held it forward towards the pair. "With the best wishes of the Frisbeeterian peoples towards the President and First Lady of The Island of Rose."

Sergei chuckled and carried the painting over to a nearby wall. There was a nail on it. He hanged it and looked at it.

"Beautiful piece of art. It looks like a Picasso." Diane looked at it from where Sergei used to be. "More like a Da Vinci." She said. She looked over at Jernberg.

"Well, anything else you need to do? We don't mind." Sergei sat down on the sofa and started playing HALO again as he mumbled I will beat you over the shooting noises.

"No Sir, I've taken enough of your time. I'm sure Director Riegle will mention Frisbeeteria's desire to establish trade relations when you meet him tomorrow. Thank you again, and may I add my personal congratulations on your happy occasion." He backed out the double doors gracefully, and made a hasty retreat.

Whew! Glad that's done. They're obviously not art fans - didn't even glance at the title plate, much less recognize the Impressionist School. Reigle really did them right, though, I'll grant the old bastard that. It really sets off the room nicely. Damn thing's crooked, though.

Moaning can be heard through Sergei's office as the Major shifted his eyes towards the door. "Yup, at it again. Let's go." The Major escorted the diplomat down the hall, down the stairs, and through the door. The taxi was beeping as the diplomat was rushed inside. The Major slammed his chest as the taxi swerved past the decorations and other things. The arrived at the airport after a few minutes. Though they had to avoid guns and a few hundred potholes, which the Rosian cars were used to. The taxi's door opened.

[i]Jernberg gratefully settled back into his seat about the small jet. He appreciated even more the comfort and corporate simplicity to which he was accustomed. *Why do I even take these assignments?*, he wondered for the umpteenth time. *Because otherwise you'll never escape Cubicle-World*, said the imaginary angel on his shoulder. *It's profit and power, always. Never take your eyes off the goal.*

Czar Rekjyavich Ivan Andropov II would like to attend, but also asks if he would be allowed to bring his cerimonial sword. He also wishes to challenge your fencers to a match. Foil swords, of course. ;)

God Bless,

As a favor, we'd like to fly a new prototype of fireworks over the ball. Once the altimeter hits the correct altitude, a modified cluster missile releases 42 mini-missiles, which each contain an single molecule of antimatter. This anti matter can be arranged to be shaped into anything, the bride and groom, or even the chapel itself engrained in the night sky, it'll last for three days, as the anti matter dissapates. It comes in multiple colors.

Thank you for your kind invitation. I would love to attend in person. Is there a landing strip nearby I could use? My nation is an island, and I would hate to have to miss your wedding due to transport problems. I'll bring your present with me.
