I just got a phone call from a drone asking me why I was late for work.

At a law firm.

I can't be a lawyer, I don't know shit about the legal system! I was in jail for two hundred years![[OOC EDIT: So apparently I'm an idiot and Free DIDN'T actually kill her. He just stole the magic eye. I'll try to pass it off as Free being ICly spacey, but if ( Read more... )

No, I meant did you literally spend five years in literal hell?

The world is filled with those who have said, "I wish I had never asked that." If it wasn't Hell, it was close enough for me.

Ah, well you never know.

So you're a lawyer, then?

Used to be. Once upon a time. Now I guess I'm whatever Mayfield wants me to be.

What were you in prison for, incidentally?

I killed someone, but it got way blown out of proportion.

[Oh, the look he'd be giving you if this weren't over the phone.]

Hard to blow murder out of proportion, the way I see it.

No one has the right to take life away from another person, be it through murder or the death penalty. That's one of the rules I live by.

Even if I do feel like some people deserve it.

One of the rules I live by is no one has the right to take the free will away from another. She was using magic to turn hundreds of people into mindless slaves. I did what I had to to put an end to it.

Guess I'll be seeing you at the office, then, Mr. Convict. Don't worry about not being qualified, what passes for law in this town is hardly proper justice by any stretch.

Convict is a step up from prisoner.
