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.




[ Public Channel ]

[ 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.

Perhaps everyone's favorite murderous tree will rescue our things!

Oh god. That palm tree thing with all the heads? The hell is that thing anyway?

I think it's a pokemon... I only noticed it for the first time after Alola!

And there were trees like it on some islands.
moonfang: (say it again?)

[personal profile] moonfang 2017-10-01 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
Alola? musta been before I got here. Whatever it is, it's weird. And it always wants to pick a fight.

But I don't fight trees.
spaghettimonster: (HUH???)

[personal profile] spaghettimonster 2017-10-02 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
That seems like such an arbitrary standard!
moonfang: (let's have some real fun!)

[personal profile] moonfang 2017-10-03 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
They're TREES, man! Trees! Normally they don't fight back.
spaghettimonster: (O HO HO HO)

[personal profile] spaghettimonster 2017-10-05 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh! How sporting. But in this case, the tree assuredly will! Just, don't make it more than a vigorous spar.

I just....


....



I ain't sure I feel super comfortable about all this.
spaghettimonster: (I WOULD NEVER KID ABOUT SOMETHING THIS I)

[personal profile] spaghettimonster 2017-11-06 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
About... the trees? [Discomfort with everything else is a given, and hardly bears talking about.]

Well, if you're truly uncomfortable fighting flora, I'm sure that, if you ask politely, they'll find someone else to fight.
kingsroads: (why is norrell like this)

[personal profile] kingsroads 2017-09-28 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Awful.

[ sorry Zan & Papyrus, the peanut gallery's got to interject to hate on trees. ]
moonfang: (thumbs up!)

[personal profile] moonfang 2017-10-01 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
Hehahaha! It just wants to kill everything. A tree after my own heart.
kingsroads: (probably thinking bout faeries)

[personal profile] kingsroads 2017-10-01 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
It's a she, technically. Her name is Coco. Try to stay clear of the head—that's the worst part.
moonfang: (let's have some real fun!)

[personal profile] moonfang 2017-10-01 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Which one? The one on the right, the one on the left, the one in the middle, or the reaaaaally doofy one on the tail?
kingsroads: (this won't end well)

[personal profile] kingsroads 2017-10-01 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
The..."doofy" one. It bites.
moonfang: (oh shit son)

[personal profile] moonfang 2017-10-01 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
I knew it.
