==> Sollux: Go back to work.
When the head politician arrives, you try and make small talk with him at first, ask him about his planet, tell him about yours, answer any questions he has, subtly suggest that his planet could be just the same, and that you won’t be pushing anyone out of their position. It’d benefit you more to keep him where he is, just he would work under you instead of at the top. It’d be more off his shoulders to be honest.Â
He tries to argue at first, saying that they'd be fine without you, but, it does seem like a good deal. And you're being so friendly about it. Not seeming to force anything at all. He asks what the catch is.Â
