So you theorize the dice know what they're about? Interesting. I am going to make some background rolls now to test that hypothesis.
D6 => 3
D10 => 10
D5 => 2
...apparently you're 100% right. I'm sorry for doubting you.
I mean. The guys are competition, too.
Space elves? No. Space cats. Estil are experts at sprawling on basically any surface, but they like their fancy floating beanbags. Human ergonomics are super uncomfortable when you walk on your toes.
To be fair, Starspite was specifically cautioning against taking advantage of Sasori. Zaiyu has a good track record of honesty and support so far. Of course, that could change in the future.

The more I think about this quests premise, the more unsure I get about how I want this to all go. Because Lord Zaiyuu, governor of Earth, lounging on his hover throne with a harem of twinks splayed in front of him is a very striking mental image.
Hey, hey, we can easily have a bisexual harem, or even a big polyamorous thing, and satisfy everybody!

We do have a lot of extra arms. And we can get a lot more if we need!

You're currently disguised as Yuu Seiki. Which is also the disguise you were in when you met Akira in the park. Convenient!

Usually, I wouldn't make wild and spurious claims about the dice.
But usually the dice aren't so obviously bard dice. Terroar's Warhammer Fantasy quest, the one I mentioned earlier, is another perfect example. Some quests or games, the dice do, in fact, know what they're about.

Some day, Zaiyu will look down and notice how human shoes differ from Estil feet. Performing such detailed observations will be the first sign of humanity's doom.
Ah, is that why you asked a question you already knew the answer to?

How can they fight over us if they don't realize that the boys they're crushing on are all different aliases of the same alien invader?

Damn, no ottoman foot rest nor reclining chairs? This is a poor showing of human furniture, and I am ashamed of this fictional store.

Voting is closed! Zaiyu has decided to go say hi to Akira.
Those options were damn near neck and neck we almost never greeted Akira.
I dunno, I think "floating beanbag chairs" is a good start. It shall be a new era of humanity! One where we can ride chairs!

Well, on one hand, we don't know all that much about what animates each of these girls to fight yet (apart from Tomoe, who seems to be motivated by a sense of justice and responsibility). On the other hand, some measures that we can take to secure a surrender seem to be universal.
a) We need to minimize the impact of the invasion on civilians, both during and after the invasion. Minimize is doing a lot of heavy lifting here, since being conquered by aliens is likely to be seriously disruptive to everyone's lives, but we can do our best to avoid deaths and serious injuries among civilians during the invasion process. We should also position ourselves to be able to credibly promise that our human subjects will continue to live their lives within reason. That is to say, enslavement is out of the question, and so are other forms of inhumane treatment on a large scale. People should preferably continue to be able to go to work and school, enjoy entertainment and cultural activities, and generally retain their current standards of living, minus some civil and political rights. This is important because the girls will likely feel obligated to fight us if we're killing or seriously harming innocent people or threatening to deprive their loved ones/their communities/humanity of the things they see as necessary for the good life.
b) Ideally, we should be able to credibly depict the conquest of Earth as a net positive for humanity. This ties into the above, but is a more demanding standard. If we can convince the girls that this is so, they should have much less motivation to fight us.
c) We should position ourselves in such a way that resistance against us is very unlikely to succeed. There is much less motivation to fight if they don't think they can win. That entails putting all the pieces in place before beginning the invasion proper, and generally amassing overwhelming strength and unsurpassable intelligence advantage. We should know everything about them, and hide as much about us as possible.
d) We can offer incentives that are tailored to each girl. Tomoe, for example, may be offered a prominent position in the collaboration government, where she can use her authority to improve the lot of humans (thus satisfying her sense of responsibility). She's admittedly a tough nut to crack since she seems likely to care about things like human self-government, but other girls should hopefully have motivations that are easier to cater to.
Unfortunately, there is a giant asterisk beside this entire plan, which is that we currently have no authority to do any of this, and the higher-ups can decide at any time to start a bloody invasion or brutal occupation policy without any input from us. If the higher-ups do decide to do that, I'm not sure there's any way to talk down the girls. If they were the sort of people who can be talked out of fighting an invading army that seeks to kill the innocent and generally destroy their way of life, they wouldn't be magical girls to begin with.
