let's get down to business

[whattaprick]

Who: Nightrunners and whoever wants to make use of the training yard for whatever reason.
When: S2 D1-D5
Where: The Training Yard
What: Training, or pointing and laughing at people training.
Warnings: Explosions and swearing, probably.

Though it's never really been off-limits, once they're down off the moon, Lambert wastes little time informing the nightrunners he officially expects them to get back to training and getting in shape. They can make ample use of the training yard facilities to learn how to work with each other after their extended vacation, or just get to know their newer coworkers in an environment closer to what their actual working conditions will actually be like.

The yard, as usual, isn't limited solely to nightrunners. Anyone who wants to work on their physical or magical skills are welcome, as well as anyone from the other departments who have anything they might want to test out that requires a combatant, for some reason.

Lambert's generally a constant presence at the fringes, sometimes participating in exercise or sparring himself, but mostly just watching and making sure no one's about to put someone's eye out or break the equipment, because that would be bad for obvious reasons.

"Oi, that wasn't how it went at all!"

A pause.

"It was a princess, for starters." And, frankly, he thought it was going very well, up until the guards had manhandled him to a prison cell to await beheading. A bit of an overreaction, honestly.

If Scout had been present for that stop that whole world probably would have chafed her. As it is she just shakes her head.

"Sure, sure. And what did you learn from that whole escapade? I don't think restraint was part of it, I've seen you." All excess and flirtations, drawn into some torturously slow yes-or-no triangle with another Supervisor and the head animal keeper.

Listen.... We don't talk about that. Joker certainly isn't at any rate, and just laughs a little as he leans against a training dummy with a lazy little lounge. "Well, I learned I wasn't really dead after all," he says with a laugh, playing off what's actually quite a morbid little fact.

"The carnival was so strange ta me back then that I thought I surely had ta be dead and barely knew it!" His shoulders roll up in a shrug. "Or somethin' like that."

She shakes her head. Scout already knows what's happening to her when she dies - everything that makes her her will dissolve out and blend into the Force, and after everything it will be a kind of relief. By now she knows more solid, persistent after-lives exist, but they're not something she wants any part of.

"So you took things less seriously?" Oh, Scout knows he takes certain things seriously indeed, she's just ribbing him. "I'm surprised you lived at all."

"It really is a miracle." Fortunately, he can easily enough dismiss the far too many near death experiences that he's had, and gives a lazy shrug. "From overwork even without the grudge royalty ended up havin' against me! It was only halfway through a season before I decided ta settle in performance and convince the Ringmaster ta make me Stage Manager~."

...And, you know, convince the previous one to go join an interstellar viking war, whatever.
