[Day 4] Hell

[arsgoetia]

Some of you are discussing serious lawyering with the most serious lawyer. Others are reuniting with old friends, or meeting new ones(?) . . . and some of you are just flat-out riding bad decision dinosaur trains.

The adventure continues. ♥

And how could we stop that?

"Well, winning the case would probably help," Valac says. "Otherwise you'd need someone powerful to step in and try to help you save them."

*headtilt*

Are you powerful enough?

Re: [Elsewhere]

[haspinkglasses.livejournal.com]

And what would it take for you to step in if you are?

Re: [Elsewhere]

[arsgoetia]

"Maybe I could keep both of you. ♥"

Re: [Elsewhere]

Hey, why not just me?

*steps on him under the table, but doesn't object out loud. yet.*

"You both make such a funny team," Valac says. "And all three of us have been through so much together. Anyway, I might agree if you tell me all the details."

Re: [Elsewhere]

The thing is, we've got little enough to bargain with...beyond the information, and ourselves...to agree to a 'might.' No offense.

Re: [Elsewhere]

[haspinkglasses.livejournal.com]

Sorry, we need something more along the lines of "definitely."

Re: [Elsewhere]

[arsgoetia]

"But what if I agree and then you're making me help with something that would totally shame me?"

Re: [Elsewhere]

[ofortunistic.livejournal.com]

What if we agree and you're just stringing us along?

Re: [Elsewhere]

[haspinkglasses.livejournal.com]

Do you promise not to mislead us?

Or do we have to take our details and leave?

Re: [Elsewhere]

[arsgoetia]

"What if I didn't let you leave? This is all getting very hypothetical."

Re: [Elsewhere]

[ofortunistic.livejournal.com]

We do have an appointment to keep...

Re: [Elsewhere]

[haspinkglasses.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't be right to make us miss it.

Re: [Elsewhere]

[arsgoetia]

"It would be pretty unfortunate," Valac agrees. "Okay, how's this! You tell me the details, and if it's something I can't help I'd keep my nose out, and if it's something I could save the day with, we work out an agreement from there."

*no way man we are on this dinosaur together.*

Promise? ♥

Re: [Elsewhere]

He holds out his pinky fingers. "I promise! I won't interfere if I'd be useless, but if I might be of use we can work out terms."

Re: [Elsewhere]

[ofortunistic.livejournal.com]

*wow we are pinky promising with a demon president.*

Re: [Elsewhere]

[the best decisions]

Re: [Elsewhere]

[arsgoetia]

Pinky promises are totally legit and binding.

"Well then?"

Re: [Elsewhere]

[ofortunistic.livejournal.com]

*verbal promises have weight, though.*

We're here to give testimony in the trials of Lucia Bellcourt and Bastien Mayfair.
