[TM] 395 - You never know what you can do until you have to do it. - Betty Ford
The Master couldn’t hide what he feels if he wanted to; if he didn’t let us know the music would, that’s for sure. The Minions have to be semi-immune from that. It’s part of the job description. We have to dance (safely - the union insists on that, one spark and it’s a compensation matter) and we absolutely do not sing.
Apart from that, the job can get … varied, especially for the lead Minion. I’ve never been a reckless type and I never thought of the Master as taking unnecessary chances, either, not after all the years he’s lived - but I was wary of the queen I’m writing about now. (I’d have thought any creature with a brain would have been, but chanson a gout, or however they say it.) The Master seemed to like her, and the soundtrack confirmed it, but I don’t think he raised a hand to stop her from leaving.
The mask’s part of my working outfit but I was wondering whether it was true that she could smell fear all through the business with the portal; I got the job done, though.
As for the Master, I saw his expression. I heard the soundtrack, too. Sometimes he’s almost human - or maybe the saying applies to anyone. I don’t know. I just work here.
