THE WARDEN AND NIGHTRIDER ARE HERE (D170)

[Sans is blue.]
[Lambert is dark red.]

[ Supervisor’s Channel ]

All right. [ Lambert’s voice is brisk and business-like, for once, though it still has that familiar edge of sarcasm to it. ]

Okay. [Sans is here, too.]

I’ll get to the point. You know the next stop’s not like our usual. [ To say the least. A beat, before he continues: ] Keep an eye on your people. Make sure they’re actually following the rules, not freaking out and getting us all into shit.

[ That feels like a tall order, though, under the circumstances. ]

That goes for you, too. Keep your head on straight. Any problems or troublemakers you can’t handle on your own, let me or Sans know. This isn’t a performance stop -- if anyone who works for you is assigned to patrol or the nightrunners, they answer to us first.

Speaking of ‘keeping your head on straight’... some of you might remember a certain stop we had a ways back where a few certain someones almost got the guillotine for failing to abide by a similar set up of stuffy royal standards. Let’s not have a repeat of that, cause from the sounds of it the RM might not be able to save you this time.

If you don’t know what I’m talking about, this is your opportunity to remain blissfully ignorant.

[ Lambert’s voice is terse, and irritable: ]

Our next stop’s called Heartstone Manor. We’re going to go over some ground rules to make everyone's life, especially mine, a lot easier.

[Sans is also here.]

The RM has already covered a lot of this in her announcement, but it is officially our jobs to make sure that it sinks in. Dealt with True Fae before? Then you know this isn’t a joke. Yes, your fashion sense and table etiquette are now a matter of life and death. This is me, Sans, telling you to take this seriously. Hopefully that means something to you.

To summarize the gist of what was said, here are some basic RULES. The Nightrider and I will be watching. So, even if the Prince doesn’t catch you, we will.


[Sans recites “The Rules” like he’s just whipped out a pair of reading glasses and is quoting them from an official document:]

DO:

  • Follow the daily schedule
  • Follow dress code
  • Be polite to The Prince and his servants
  • Keep your radio on you


DON’T:

  • Whine about everything
  • Seed rebellion or talk about rules breaking on the network
  • Make any deals or promises to other fae servants
  • Lay any hard disses on The Prince, ever, under any circumstances
  • Don’t sweat the small stuff: this is gunna grate on a lot of us, so just focus on the end goal… which is not dying


Don’t mess it up.

That, too.

Am I already dead? I thought I just heard Sans, telling me to be punctual and well-dressed.

You're not really selling me on the idea that this is real, and not a dream, pleasant besides the looming portents of our demise...

Hmmmmm. That must be it, because elsewise, I'm astonished. Maybe the news hasn't sunk in like it has for you...

[Why doesn't he have a proper phone or internet, though, because if he coukd take a selfie, he's sure his own expression would be something.]

Well, I'll save the teasing until you're in more a state of mind for it. And... get down to business, now.

Brother, who do you think you're talking to!? A neatly scheduled day, where I have to look good enough and be friendly enough... the only challenge is learning the strange human rules of politeness! The rest is fine.

[And he's not just talking himself up, there; he genuinely believes it. There's still the question of how much challenge hell have adapting to expectations, since he tends to be a little too himself to fit... And how much he'll distract himself chasing Sans down.]

It's like your own crappy miracle.You only get one once a year.

I asked and asked for so many years, and it isn't even Gyftmas yet... Is this the work of some terrible, distorted, mirror Santa??

Of who?

[ Eyyy not having the same holidays or pseudo-mythical figures, what's up. ]

Santa! A big, bearded, costumed fellow, back home! He only appeared around the holiday, bringing gifts for everyone...
whattaprick: commissioned art! (♈ i can't analyze that love)

Never heard of the guy. What's with the gifts, and where does he get 'em from? Seems a little fishy to me.

Oh, it's a strange commemoration of bullying. Now Gyftrot has debris-free antlers, and a holiday named for them!

The gifts... I think some come from the tree in town center. You'd have to ask Sans where the rest come from.
