Always. How can I be of service?

[payback]

[Hm. She can't just come right out and say this.]

You're a lawyer, aren't you? I want to ask some questions about something having to do with the law. Or, I guess, the law that's probably around in your home, given we don't have much in the way of "the law" around here.

[5055034455]

Sure. Shoot. Unless this is a talk you'd rather have in person?

[payback]

Here is fine.

I'm asking on behalf of my friend. He's in some trouble. Apparently someone really dangerous from his home has arrived, someone who could be a danger to lots of people here. My friend won't tell me who this person is, but he seems pretty convinced that he ought to take on this new arrival all by himself, and he's the only person fit for the job to keep this person calm.

Since he won't go for help, I'm going on behalf of him, I guess, to ask what kind of options he has. Or might have. If he actually decided to do all of these dealings above the table.

[5055034455]

[WELP.]

Is this about Jesse?

[payback]

I'm glad you asked. I thought you knew him.

[5055034455]

He's my client.

And here's my advice to you: stay out of it.

[payback]

Not going to happen.

[5055034455]

The only way I can help you is if you back off.

[payback]

How are you proposing to help me?

[5055034455]

By convincing you that this isn't your fight, no matter how much you care about Jesse.

[payback]

I see. I'll do it myself then.

[5055034455]

Do what yourself?

[payback]

Figure it out myself. Do it myself I guess, if the opportunity comes up. I can be pretty sneaky you know. And I've already died twice. It doesn't seem like that much a big deal anymore.

[5055034455]

[please hold while saul shrieks into his pillow

thank you]

We should talk. In person.

[payback]

[pleased to meet you mr. goodman :)]

When and where?

[5055034455]

[NO.]

Sometime this weekend? I can come to you or you can come to me.

Do you have nosy roommates?

[payback]

Oh yes. Do you like tea?

[5055034455]

I prefer coffee, but tea is fine. Was that a "yes" to the roommates question? Because if it is, you should come here instead.

[payback]

Why not somewhere neutral? Neither apartment.

[5055034455]

Let's just go for a walk and see where we end up. Deal?

[payback]

That sounds like a fine plan. When?

[5055034455]

Whenever. Now?

[payback]

I will meet you at the front.

[The good thing about this past week is that Saul's been on the go almost nonstop, so all he has to do is grab his coat and leave the apartment. Whether he beats Rin to the front or not remains to be seen — he recognizes her name, but he's not sure he's seen her face before.

So there he is, looking a little obvious in his lawyerly suit and tie, waiting.]
