[Allura sighs and shakes her head, smiling with an odd mix of exasperation and nostalgia.]
Reminds me of some of my first practice forums back on Altea. Thankfully I had a few classes with children of other nobles and politicians, from Altea, the surrounding planets, and a few others, so we could have hands-on experience communicating with other people and especially other cultures.
Even more thankfully they were just practice forums so those first arguments didn't have an actual impact on interplanetary politics; I remember myself and two other girls trying to settle one "debate" over tellurium crystal tariffs by tackling each other to the floor and trying to pull each other's hair out. Oh, you can IMAGINE how embarrassed my father and Coran were!
