Day 68: [NIGHTRUNNER CHANNEL]

[whattaprick]

If you haven’t been approached already, I’m letting you know now: we’ve got a couple of people asking about being let on the nightrunners. I told them they’d need to convince you, not me. You know what we do, you know the risks, and you know what I ask for — if they come to you, let me know how they do.

Also, I’ve banned Strange from going out on preliminary scouting or any mission with a more than average chance of running into the fae. Unless I or the Ringmaster specifically say otherwise, that stays. He can whine about it as much as he wants, but if you see him violating that order, I want you to tell me that too.

Why would you care about loving men? [Why would Lambert?? Why does that part matter.

He can't comment on the rest being actual evidence, mostly because he doesn't want to get dragged into a lover's quarrel on top of all this drama.]

[kingsroads]

I don't. [ Strange is a hopeless romantic who's gung ho for any sort of love. ] But certain factions of England are less liberal than I am. I suspect Childermass mentioned that to him and he wanted to ask me without arousing my suspicion.

[chronosynthesis]

I'm not certain I follow the problem, but I will take your word on it.

[kingsroads]

There isn't a problem, Lambert was just being overly cautious. [ which is a much easier way of explaining things than 'homophobia in the 1810s' ]

[dressedtothe]

Wait, Childermass?

[Cue all the gears in his head turning.]

Damn it! It was Childermass all this time!?

[whattaprick]

What, did you lose a bet or something?

[dressedtothe]

Uh, nooo...

[Does Lambert really want him to answer that??]
