For the thoroughly evil prompt of 'jester' on
muse_prompts. Do you people realise how many jesters and fools I've fallen in love with over the years? But I always did have a soft spot for this one. Danny Kaye is awesome as Hubert.
Title: Jester's Chief Employment
Rating: PG
Fandom: The Court Jester (1955)
Characters/Pairings: Hubert Hawkins, mention of Hubert/Jean
Summary: "And I found out soon that to be a buffoon is a serious thing as a rule. For a jester's chief employment is to kill himself for your enjoyment, and a jester unemployed is nobody's fool." Hubert decides maybe that wasn't the wisest thing he's ever said ...
