Nightrunner Channel [Day 170]

[whattaprick]

All right, nightrunners. I’ll keep this short. I want a map of this place and I want to know what might piss the Prince off that they aren’t warning us about. The fae have rules, doesn’t mean they’re not out to trick us into breaking them.

[ It’s not like that’s how the Ringmaster gets a fair amount of her labor or anything. Last thing they need is someone turning into a vase. ]

You see anyone starting shit, figure out how to shut it down without getting attention. The Prince is going to have people working for him too -- don’t get too cozy, they’re not here to do us any favors. Learn anything worth knowing, tell the rest of us.

Any questions?

So how does that work if you've only got the one name and no religion?

[kingsroads]

I honestly have no idea.

[ he's helping! ]

Perhaps I'll simply call you 'nightrider' for the duration instead--and 'sir' when the Prince is in earshot, of course.

[whattaprick]

Wouldn't do to let him think you actually listen to me or anything, right?

[kingsroads]

On the contrary, I might actually do so! You are my supervisor and we at least need to attempt something close to hierarchy while here.

[whattaprick]

What about around his servants, then?

[kingsroads]

They're going to gossip about us no matter what. We'll have enough trouble convincing everyone to be on their best behavior when the Prince is in the room, I'm halfway tempted to write off behaving when his servants are in the room as impossible.

[ that's not an answer, mostly because Strange kind of doesn't want to pretend that he actually listens to Lambert for the whole trip. ]
