They can get some spacesuits and they can see if it impedes them on shorter trips.

Permalink

There are some tests and it is reported that dancers should expect to need a lot more practice to be able to dance sufficiently well in the suits than out of them but it should be doable.

Permalink

Suits for anybody who wants!

Permalink

It takes a lot of beeple to do interplanetary dancing without taking too long so yes let's have lots of those suits.

Permalink

Many many suits. Some of these suits are decommissioned and no longer vacuum-tight but should be the same for dancing practice as long as they don't go to space.

Permalink

The beeple are very careful to mark the practice suits separately.

Permalink

They can stay in a hotel if they would prefer that to just dancing home at need.

Permalink

The dancers prefer to default to being at home but thank you.

The main diplomatic staff will stay in a hotel.

Permalink

Would they like to try local food?

Permalink

Sure, okay.

Permalink

Local food! It's clean. Although if it would be convenient to the beeple to trade unclean or unverifiable food in exchange for their clean food that would suit the Tapai.

Permalink

The beeple don't care if food is clean by Amentan standards or not as long as it's not pathogen-infected.

Permalink

It's not pathogen-infected and they have lots of it and it's not even long-term polluting to eat it.

Permalink

The beeple will cheerfully trade beeple food for "unclean" Amentan food.

Permalink

Hurray!

Permalink

Honey seems to be the favorite sweetener for beeple food, appropriately enough. The beeple have lots of honey.

Permalink

...do beeple produce honey or do they have otherworldly bees for it?

Permalink

Beeple have otherworldly bees! Beeple are very fond of their bees. Bees are such good smol fuzzy bumblers.

Permalink

Awwww. Well, they don't have a ton of unverifiable Amentan honey but they have some.

Permalink

Oooh, alien honey. Nice.

Some beeple are interested in doing study-abroad in Tapa to learn about Amentan bees and other ecology.

Permalink

Well, the news is out now (video of them appearing exists; people are gonna wonder where the food came from) so sure, though they will want to have some security or be undercover so people don't bother them about being aliens.

Permalink

Would undercover be difficult?

Permalink

They don't look that unusual. Their accents will be strange but if they don't talk to linguists most people won't expect to be able to place them, and if they avoid talking about their families too specifically they can avoid scrutiny for that too.

Permalink

Some beeple will go undercover to university, then.

Permalink

University students are friendly!
