So. What you've gotta impress on the guy is that cooperating with you isn't really an option. I gather you don't want to have to go to the Ringmaster for support, but ultimately... you follow your superior or you face the consequences. You're not the only one who's had to deal with an underling who just wasn't interested in taking their Supervisor seriously.
You're part of the carnival's structure and you're not optional. He doesn't have to like you and he doesn't have to like what you are, but if he thinks that means he can disregard your authority then that's crossing a line.
You can't be an island in this, Peri. Command order is meaningless with nothing to back it up. You've got the carnival backing you, and you gotta make sure he knows it.
