PRINCE BLUEBLOOD’S

GUIDE TO

DIPLOMACY

“It’s foalproof!” [ding!]

Get to know their friends.

Winning over a diplomat’s friends means they’re hearing good things about you when you’re not around.

“Pinkie told me you loved party cannons. How about your own mini-party cannons?“

“Cool!”

Bring food.

But don’t bring their food and don’t claim it’s the best. Make it something they’ll be curious about.

“Griffon scones! I ordered these all the way from the Griffon Kingdom! Only ones in Yakyakistan.”

That way if they hate them, nobody has to be insulted. You can bond over how terrible they are.

“This food terrible!“

“Well, what do you expect? They’re half bird! When was the last time you ate something a bird baked?“

“Ha ha ha ha!”

Remember everypony’s name all the time.

It shows ponies that you care (even if you don’t).

“Yakmina! I was just telling Prince Rutherford, Yakatar, and Leroy here what an excellent spa service you run! Just! The! Best!“

“Prince Blueblood so kind.“

“Not at all! Rutherword, you need to relax more. You should go see her!”
