A negotiator who [[fear|''fears'']] her material will hide behind the formal rules she is given to manage it. She won’t be drawn to discuss anything ''[[call, don’t email|live]]'' — if she doesn’t understand the form, why would she put her vulnerability on show? — so will hide behind her keyboard, contributing to the familiar experience of electronic trench warfare: she will lob long, bulleted issues lists over no-man’s-land and into the enemy’s advanced positions, or escalate that way internally to risk departments. When they land, her missiles — missives? — will hiss and sputter, being passed about for days, before eventually being lobbed back, appended with yet more more bullets and annotated in [[BLOCK CAPITALS]] and fetching interjections in {{Fontcolour|#FF00D4|'''hot pink'''}}. This impasse can last, as it did in Ypres, for years. You could write [[strange negotiation|war poetry]] about it.
