[ So after this, promptly followed by a visit to the Ringmaster, Childermass will be turning his radio back on and, unshockingly, delivering a vague and potentially unsettling request. ]

This is Childermass. [ Like anyone doesn't recognize an English accent that's been gargling gravel by now. ] I would like all of us to keep an eye out for Summer Court activity in our upcoming stops. The letter I received from the Summerlands makes me think they might make a play for the Blue Rose.

I only found out right before we left for the Manor.

[ And then they all had other things on their mind. But hey, let's throw Childermass under the bus some more: ]

Mostly I was pissed he didn't include himself in that deal, too.

Lambert. That's enough.

[ level of done: reaching maximum just about now ]

[ He'll stop, but not before a parting shot, because his hackles can't help but rise at being commanded like a hound. ]

Maybe that's why she gave you this one for free.

[atouts]

Doubtful.

[ Man, if it wasn't detrimental to stop talking to the Nightrider and just hang up, he would, but after this Lambert is going to find the magician impossible to locate. Good luck, asshole. ]

[periphrasing]

[Well Peridot was about to give Lambert grief for not telling her this sooner-- because manor or no manor, it's still been weeks since that all happened-- but uh.]

Um. What the hell just happened?

[Earth swears seem only fitting for this situation.]

[whattaprick]

[ Sorry, Peridot. No answers forthcoming from this end, at least not on the radio. ]

[periphrasing]

[She gives them both ample time to respond, but when nothing happens... well. Guess who can't take a hint.]

...Okay, great! That's great. I guess this is just one more thing that Peridot doesn't need to know about! Let's just leave Peridot in the dark! ABOUT EVERYTHING!
