Batting

Sir, the peasants have always been unpleasant, but they are now genuinely revolting . . .

Lord wyleu, eyed the figure in the doorway, with a weary contempt . .
And is there anything we are doing about that…?
He snapped .

"Well We’ve tried fire hoses and non-lethal method to meet the challenge of civil disobedience but as ever sir, they simply keep being revolutionary…

“In a word revolting…”

wyleu snorted . .
"And all this because of what…? "

Well sir, there’s the normal moans and groans, and we have had the Ruin and Destruction Department working late into the night testing the machines …

wyleu sighed…

He’s still testing is he…?

The courtier noticeably shrugged. . .

Yes Sir…

Survivors . . . ?

Not as yet sir.

Oh well., I suppose we could let him go to a couple more gigs, to quieten him down a bit…

"I’ll release the locks, sir and reconnect his ticketmaster account. . .

Wyleu brightened.
“How is the new machine going…?”

Very well Sir . .

In fact, If you remember sir, in our plan…
Wyleu snarled …

“MY PLAN!”

“Indeed Sir, The Plan…”

Wyleu stiffened…

…and let it pass.

The courtier continued,
“involved a competition, to win two of the devices …”
he glanced hurriedly to ensure he still had a compliant wyleu, and quickly continued…
" and you and Baron Baggypants agreed to cast an eye over the list, for the benefit of all…"

wyleu sniffed…
It has been done…
"Indeed Sir, may I say how much everybody agrees with your insightful and carefully considered choices. . .

wyleu shrugged.
“It nothing, I can hold a tune…”

“And sir,…”

“Yes…?”

wyleu snarled.

YeSSS !!?

Well sir, that’s where we think we have a problem…
Obviously flushed with the sense of triumph from the sense of hope developing, we have had mutterings . . …

Mutterings… ?

What kind of mutterings . . .

Well sir, malcontents have alluded to the lack of recent audio clips from your good self…

What…?

Yes sir . … .

Is that it…?

Yes sir

Well throw him a bat recording…
