✆CHANNEL FREQUENCY: 843.77425 (personal);
DESCRIPTION: Half the time he forgets this thing even exists, or how to turn it on and off.

✉MAIL BOX LOCATION: Next to trailer steps.
DESCRIPTION: The concept of a mailbox is rather foreign to Lambert, who's not exactly what you'd call big on personal correspondence. But there's a wooden crate you can probably drop shit into ???

BUG LAMBERT TO MAKE YOU SHIT: Given time and the right ingredients (which he'll usually ask people to provide) he can make potions (with potential side effects), oils, and bombs. You can bother him more about that in person.

A 'colleague' ...

[ Lambert's frown is almost audible over the radio. ]

So he was supposed to recruit her, not one of you?

[anti_nonsense]

Seems that way. Guess he didn't want to go back empty-handed... or he just couldn't pass up the opportunity.

...

You think it was Nightshade? [She means the 'colleague', of course.]

[whattaprick]

[ Lambert frowns. ]

Maybe. Peridot did run into something that looked like Nightshade, but wasn't sure if she was real or another one of those book spirits -- if it was actually her, sniffing around the place, I guess her running into Lapis wasn't out of the question.

[ Lambert trails off there. He's thinking. ]

[anti_nonsense]

You mean she was hiding in plain sight?

Ugh... I hate how plausible that actually is. Herbert and Lapis made the same mistake with the Lady.

[So it wouldn't be the only time someone mistook a genuine fae for a book spirit.]

[whattaprick]

That water hag wasn't one we'd met before. I don't think Lapis has run into any of the fae before...

[ Which makes the whole thing more weird! ]

Anyway, that's neither here nor there.

What do you think we should do about this?

[anti_nonsense]

Has anyone talked to Lapis? Found out what she actually said that gave Nightshade this idea in the first place?

If she really was going to turn traitor, she could've put all of us in danger... but I'm not so sure that's what she was trying to do.
