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:
DON’T:
Don’t mess it up.
That, too.

[Sans recites “The Rules” like he’s just whipped out a pair of reading glasses and is quoting them from an official document:]
- Follow the daily schedule
- Follow dress code
- Be polite to The Prince and his servants
- Keep your radio on you
- 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.

[Tamaki is rolling his eyes in his trailer, because, well, he's not really in the habit of treating younger kids like they're adults, so he doesn't really get why anyone else would, either. Just because Steven can survive a terrible situation and not die doesn't mean he can't be hurt emotionally.]
He just wants to help. Do you want to make him not want to help anymore?
no subject
[ But whatever. He said he'd lay off, so there's a pause where he just exhales (does it sound like more of a strange hiss than it should? Maybe) as the desire to yell his head off passes as quickly as it came. When he finally speaks, it's still short and clipped. ]
What I want is to get through this without anyone getting cursed, trapped in another fae realm, or dying.
no subject
[Teasing isn't the same as... whatever this is. It's different from what Tamaki's used to.]
We all want that. But Stevicchi has a big heart. So he worries about others. It's not bad? He just needs someone to tell him, if it can't be done.
no subject
[ His voice takes on that bitter, cynical edge again, before there's a shuffle of cloth and he speaks again, quieter now, low and frustrated. ]
Anyway, that's what I've been telling him. [ In a really mean, shitty way, but you know, totally still counts. ] He should worry more about himself, first.
no subject
[For his part, Tamaki just sounds sad and disappointed. He just doesn't understand what's going on, and it's hard to get a read on Lambert through the radio.]
I don't really know if you care. Or if you just wanted to win. But I want to think you do. Even if you're telling me you're mean.
no subject
Still, this whole conversation just proves why getting someone's good opinion isn't worth it: having to deal with people being disappointed because they thought you were something you aren't. ]
Think what you want. It doesn't matter whether I care or not, I'm still going to do my job.
no subject
Okay, Nightrider.
[He'll leave it there for now.]
