do we know how long curators typically serve a crab for? are the Masters of the Bazaar an outlier? is their stay much longer than usual? or shorter than typical??? does it depend on crime, or mission?
In skies, some of the masters have left the bazaar but there's no info in how that was done in regards to their contracts
As far as I know the only time we've seen masters being freed from service is when the messenger was killed. The House of Rods and Chains in Eleutheria
However the original long road destiny, if I recall correctly, mentions that the masters will go their separate ways after the bazaar's mission is completed
A messenger usually has 7 servants so everything about the situation with the bazaar and masters is an anomaly.
Oh additionally in regards to their size: in skies Happles makes a remark at one point about needing to hide and "be small" because of being an exile from curator society, so because of the phrasing, I was presuming they retain control over how large or small they appear. but if anyone else has other info or interpretations I'd love to hear
i don't think there's any indication in canon that the normal Courier-Master relationship involves any sort of crime, or that it's anything but a regular... employer and live-in servant dynamic. the Masters of the Bazaar are very much outliers.
the Masters of Eleutheria fled after the House of Rods and Chains was killed, but that seems like a normal reaction to have to your boss being murdered - and Mr Barleycorn is still serving the Halved with no mention of an expectation that its servitude has an end date rather than just being a job that continues until either it leaves or gets fired.
i'm not convinced there's anything mystical going on with the Masters of the Bazaar that magically *compels* them to stay in service, either. they agreed to serve to gain a reward (a pardon for their crimes), which they would lose out on if they left prematurely, but as said, several Masters did just... go, when the Avid Horizon was opened. the reason, say, Pages needs to win the Marvellous to leave or Spices wanted to trade Transport for its freedom seems to me to be more about that the other Masters would try to stop them if they just tried to flee with nothing big like the total exodus of London to keep them busy and distracted - there's no loyalty or love lost between them, and the work gets harder for those left behind every time they lose someone. they're all each other's bitter prison guards.

how fucking funny would it have been if the collective noun for a colony of bats were a parliament like with owls
Almost positive a group of Masters is called a parliament given how many times they are called that. Kingdom of a Pig, old destinies, Mr Cards, I believe a few others too. Seeking even compares Masters to owls, as does Bag a Legend.
I thought that a group of Masters was called an argument?
It is now. And if it’s an especially big group, it’s a capitalism.

i've been playing mask of the rose and the first run did seem too short and frustrating since i didn't have time to do anything meaningful (i didn't even get to fuck my chiropteran paramour :() but since the second time i've been focusing on certain storylines and boy the experience is completely different even the feeling is i have more time to do shit
haven't been able to play since the update but i guess i'll be living my best life romancing people, fucking ship up, completely abandoning archie in every single run
