On one occasion, Taskmaster off-handedly assigned [[Larrikin-1029]] and [[Pessimist-242]] on a mission together. When they got the news, the two, each indignant at the idea of having to share the other's company, stormed into the Department of Assignments' HQ and then into Taskmaster's office, where they found him busily reading a comic book about cartoon waterfowl, which he'd “picked up from one of the [[Prime-adjacent]] universes”. However, they were unable to intimidate or cajole the Prefect into changing their assignment, and ended up having to go on the mission.

Being a [[Prefect]], he had the right to attend [[Cupid Parliament]] sections. He was present for the ninth day of debate about [[Stenographer-123]]'s typewriter, on the day of the [[faceless magician (Magic Trick)|faceless magician]] incident. He was the first to realise that [[Foreman-964]] had snuck into the building despite being banned, and loudly suggested that perhaps the task should be assigned to the [[Department of Construction]] to smoke him out. This succeeded a little too well, with Foreman tackling Taskmaster to the ground as he leapt out from under the desk. However, the fight was soon broken up by the onslaught of magic rabbits, which left Taskmaster buried under the mass. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Magic Trick (novel)|Magic Trick]]'') | |||
