Day 2, continued

[kentucky_mcgiygas]

[ Around lunchtime, the tablets and screens located all around the studio turn on, in the way that they always do when the mascots have something to announce. Unusually, however, there is no music, no fanfare; the camera is out of focus, and Ronald doesn’t even seem to be looking at it. Instead, he's turned to King, ]

—supposed to be 40! What the McFuck are you doing? Can you even count?

[ The King stares. ]

You gave out 41! The Colonel would never screw up like that!

[ The King stares. ]

And what's this, "Quarter Pounder or Whopper" garbage? Those aren't equivalent burgers, you fake-grill-line-adding piece of shit! I'd better not see this referencing this in your next ad campaign!

[ The King offers a Whopper. Ronald McDonald smacks it out of his hand. He starts to yell again, but cuts himself off, turning his head toward the camera. ]

—Are we rolling!? Grimace, kill the feed!

[ The screens switch off. ]

((lol I goofed, there are actually 41 votes to go around.

Your Lord Corrin? [ Santa freezes a bit, his face paling. ] What do you mean by 'your'?

[ Totally misunderstanding here. ]

Yeah, I'm using a vote. But I can't do that next time, so someone else'll have to.

[Smirks like he's close to laughing.]

I meant he is a lord that I serve under. I normally serve his brother, but Lord Leo has commanded me to protect him. ...Perhaps Lord Corrin will someday ask if you would join him as well, since he seems to like you.

...I greatly appreciate your helping him. Don't worry about next time, I will cover him then.

[ Santa gets a little annoyed at the smirk, but then he gets distracted by the words 'seems to like you' and forgets all about being annoyed. ] He does?

I'll cover him whenever you can't and I can. If it ever comes down to neither of us being able to, I'll fucking fight tooth and nail to find another vote. I'm not letting that man die.

[locktouching]

Unlike a scoundrel like me, Lord Corrin is a very kind and genuine person.

Then we have a pact. Lord Corrin will survive. If anyone even tries to hurt him, I would like to torture them painfully.

[jinglebros]

I like your style. How about you let me watch?

[ Santa smirks so wide his fang teeth show. It's an unnerving expression to many when his face gets like this, but who knows if Niles will even be affected. ]
