i want a girl with the right allocations

WHO: Diana and City Hall people!
WHERE: City Hall.
WHEN: Saturday afternoon.
WARNINGS: N/A. Hopefully.
SUMMARY: Diana pays an informal visit to City Hall.
FORMAT: Quick at first, then whatever!

[Diana has been looking forward to this visit for several reasons. She admittedly wants to see how the City is being run, and while it isn't her priority, it's a good opportunity to observe.

She arrives without pomp and dressed in casual clothing, her Wonder Woman armor and accessories nowhere in sight. She isn't exactly inconspicuous despite this, but she's still hoping to blend in. After all, she isn't here in any formal capacity -- only to visit friends.]

Oh no, this was initially a purely social call. [Diana leans in, sensing his discomfort.] Edward, I would like you to know that my opinion of you is in no way affected by your reputation back home. You've put your past behind you, and the least I could do is acknowledge it. You've done so much for the City and you are entirely deserving of my trust and respect. I do consider you a friend, and I hope you feel the same way.

[She sits back, smiling.] Now, I would love to hear more about this idea of yours, if you wish to tell me about it.

[He swallowed. Hard. A flush heated the back of his neck. Eddie squirmed for a moment, unable to pry himself away from Diana's warmth. Unable to avoid that welcoming feeling she inspired.]

I see. I can't say that I'm very [good at] used to this [kindness] sort of visit, mind. You'll have to forgive my [awkwardness] assumption. Of course I, ah, feel --

[He wasn't sure how to end that sentence.]

Of course I'll talk more on it, the idea. I was thinking that Mitchell and I could, ah, create a diplomatic task force. A grouping of talented individuals who could artfully provide precise aid to areas worldwide, areas most in need. Like a superpowered Peace Corps, if you will. Such an endeavor speaks dramatic things for the import community, naturally, so we need a particularly strong diplomatic leader heading the entire operation.

You are the best individual for that job, Wonde -- ah, Diana.

[themysciran]

That's unfortunate -- these kinds of visits are usually my favorite. And you needn't bother yourself over it, Edward.

[She listens intently as he talked, staying silent for a moment after he finishes speaking.] And exactly what aid will we provide? Are we going to take a more active or passive approach? I can see the benefit improving relationships with other areas will provide the import community, but it is a fine line between assisting others and infringing on what they believe is their territory.

[enigmaestro]

Yes. [Eddie spoke brightly, his keen eyes now focused on her face.] Exactly, we'll need to adapt to the most recipient form. That's why our task force needs to be fluid as well as worldly -- they'll have to manage both passive and active forms of desired assistance, as instructed by the receiving party.

We want this to look very good.

[themysciran]

And do you have any other...candidates for this task force? [It's growing increasingly apparent that this whole thing is more for the sake of the import community's reputation rather than any altruistic motive, and had Diana not spent years entrenched in politics and all it entailed, she would have objected to it.] What would distinguish us from other superhero teams?
