Er, evening, then! Or morning, or ... er, the typist says it's proper to say 'timeofday' here, so, well, timeofday

Welcome! We need a lawyer around here. We have enough demons and creatures of the night already, why not add another one? Just kidding. Welcome.

I'm Alistair McKeon, by the way. Rear admiral in a navy which doesn't exist yet.

Typist: OMG!!! Watch out, any unprotected DF telex machines!

[young_barrister]

So if it doesn't exist you don't know my uncle Hereward, then. *grins and offers his hand*

Fine to meet you, old chap. Do you prefer Admiral or Admiral McKeon or McKeon or Alistair or another nickname I've not mentioned yet? Considering as people don't call me Michael much ever, and I don't always remember it's my name.

[admiral_grumpy]

*shakes hand* No, I don't know your uncle.

Call me Alistair. I've lost enough dignity here over the past three weeks to insist on anything else.

So, call you Cantrip then? I'll probably forget at least once, so I apologize in advance.

Hello, Mr. Catnip.

[young_barrister]

Hallo to you too, sir!

[silent_lark]

Welcome, monsieur! *curtsies* My husband is a lawyer, as well.

*a note is delivered*

M. Cantrip,

I hope you like it here. You should meet M. Pontmercy, our resident lawyer.

Your servant,
Armand St. Just
