The lawful watch dog...

It was so simple. Just watch Lindsey and make sure he doesn't make any rash decisions or go against the senior partners. Easy enough. The partners held me there for longer then I had intended and I missed a date. Ah, well. There will always be more. The thing that irked me though was the minute I had entered the building I was alerted of Lindsey's first act as CEO. Bringing back one Cordelia Chase. That was most definitely not on the Senior Partners roster. I also knew that even though the reason I hadn't stopped him was because they had detained me that the senior partners would most definitely scold me. But it's not like I could prove their bluff, or flat out lie.

I dismissed it easily though and stepped into the elevator, clicking the button for the floor Lindsey was on. Two other lawyers though, both young and both of the female sex stepped onto the elevator only a floor above the lobby. I take that back. Most likely they were mailroom. Here at Wolfram and Hart even mailroom attendants need suits. One actually has an old wrestling mask on. I had never gotten that.

The two ladies exited the elevator on the same floor and both gave me a double take as they walked away. I know later tonight I'll stop off in the company bar and run into one of them. I will then proceed to make very small talk and take her back to my place where I will have my way with her because that's how things are done around here.

I stepped off on Lindsey's floor and shook my head at the other lobby. Because that's what it was. A whole nother lobby-like area about twenty floors up from the first! And all for Lindsey, how fitting. I cracked my neck as I neared his office and knocked. Had to introduce myself to the prey. It wouldn't be polite to just show up. No one answered so I took it upon myself and opened the door revealing his office. A big office that was much nicer then mine even though I rarely was ever in my office.

I stepped inside and closed the door lightly as I scanned his room. Ancient artifacts, various weaponry, even nice expensive art. I get a knockoff Van Gogh and he gets a Renoir? Most likely original? I sneer at his nice office and sit on his black leather couch facing the door so that when he comes in he'll have no trouble seeing that I'm here. Only a matter of time at least. I'll just explain to him that I'm his new liason. And that anything he has to say to the senior partners, he has to say to me. Oh, and I will definitely make a note to get to know Ms. Chase. Even while in a mystical coma she looks good enough to...well, I'm in the CEO's office. Gotta watch what I think.

Yes. Any moment now.
