Karen Cunningham: ((I'll RP something with you later, Thomas. *S*))

Thomas Judge: ((Cool, catch you later all *falls asleep at the comp and fades *s*))

Thomas Judge: He lights another 'cough' left alone in the room but if the telly is anything to go by somebody somewhere is watching, so he takes a deep drag and waits, once more waiting, thats what he does nowadays.

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: After the qeustion, Thomas is taken to the jail, where he spends the night. The next day, he's brought into the conference room to meet with his defense attorney, Miss Cunningham from the interrogation. She's waiting there with her briefcase.

Thomas Judge: He walks on in, unshaven which doesn't look bad on him,and all things considered has at least a smile on his face, "Morning Karen, hows tricks?" he takes a seat, looking about the room then to Miss Cunningham.

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: "Mr. Judge." She smiles and moves to shake his hand. "How are you this morning?"

Thomas Judge: "All things considered, am feeling preety 'fiddlers', a weight of the shoulders, shame the bed want that soft" he chuckles, lighting the mood, it was in his nature, when nervous humour was his defence.

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: A smile. "Have a seat, Mr. Judge." She sits herself, and starts pouring through notes. "All right...I have a transcript of your questioning, as well as some other information about your arrest. I also have an offer on the table from the DA's office."

Thomas Judge: He nods, not alot he understood there,but he got the basics. He just looks to her not wanting to intrupt, a deal, he hated making deals when he wasn't the dealer.

Thomas Judge: He also sits, shit he was nervous

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: "The DA has offered to drop the attempted murder charge, and let you face only the public lewdness and resisting arrest charge, if you can help us locate this Thanos individual."

Thomas Judge: He raises an eyebrow "That seems fair, ave only seen him the once like, but I'll help the cops track him down." he nods, a glimer of hope in his eyes, he may not be fucked

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: She nods. "Tell me everything you know about him, Thomas. Anything might be able to help."

Me -> Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: ((Is it acceptable for a small spider to be present, such as Juliana's "spy"? I had told Judas before that she has spiders go into the jail now and then. If not, totally cool. :))

Thomas Judge: He looks to her "Well ave only met him a few times like, he is a wanderer, hell he may have already wandered on. He always seemed chilled out but as from the whole dock thing showed obviously has a bloody gun." He lights up a 'cough' if they have supplied him with some otherwise his fingers tap the table. "Bout my height, bit of a bigger build, wearing nothing special maybe a little over covered, he hung out at the park, thats where I saw him those times but I ain't been there recently for obvious running reasons?"

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room] -> Me: ((Juliana has a spider spy? Interesting. *G* Yeah, that's fine.))

Me -> Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: ((I believe so, as I understood all Ananasi to be able to have spiders drop from them, a part of their bodies. If not, I apologize and any RP from that will be retracted.))

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~It scurries along the wall, a small brownish-black spider of no consequence.~

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~Waits a moment, then scurries as quickly as it can to Thomas's shoe. It steps onto the leather. ((Or paper if it's that kind of jail.))~

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~Scrambles across the shoe, heading for the relative safety of the pant leg.~

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: She nods a little. "Do you know of any associates of his? Friends, allies, anything?"

Thomas Judge: A spider on the shoe, maybe on one of his better days that may have been noticed, but today, no way.

Thomas Judge: He thinks, shit he actually didn't. "Nah, not that I know, this Silk knew him though but I ain't seen her since either." He hadn't, she was dead, he had got over that by now, but hell the truth hurt.

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room] -> Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ((Ahh, didn't realize she was Ananasi. *G*))

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~And creeeeeps its way under the pant leg, over the sock. One tiny leg touches onto Thomas's bare shin...he may or may not feel a tickle. She learned her lesson after the first time he crushed one of the hapless arachnids.~

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: "A location where he lives? Other places he may have said he hangs out? Anything?" She purses her lips.

Juliana Sarolta [spider] -> Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: ((*G* Yeah, I think one of the only ones on the site, or so I believe. Thanks for letting me sit in on the scene. She's been keeping close tabs on Tom.))

Thomas Judge: 4,9,1,3,

Thomas Judge: He notices no spider, his attension on thinking, where else had he seen Thanos

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room] -> Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ((No prob))

Thomas Judge: He thinks for a couple of seconds "Ave seen him in star bucks, Battery Park, The Roxy Bar, all in downtown though." he looks to her, that was something right, fucking hell, he really didn't know that much about Thanos, well not the mudane anyhow.

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~It crouches there, mostly on the top of the sock.~

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: She writes it all down, and nods. "All right. Thomas, I'm going to take this to the DA, and see if it's enough to get him to agree to the deal."

Thomas Judge: "Bit of a night owl as well, can't remember seeing him during the day" He watches her stand, hell if it wasn't they just pumped him like a cheap whore.

Karen Cunningham [Jail Conf. Room]: ((Just changing nicks...scene not over yet. *S*))

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~Stays where it is. No good coming out and risking Tom seeing and talking to it, babbling on to an unseen entity like a lunatic.~

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~The spider is not that smart. Its mistress is. The spider stays clinging to the sock.~

Thomas Judge: He watches the door close, and pulls another drag from his 'cough' the smoke flowing from his nose. He had to admire there ways, the waiting game, if they had spent forever in the pit, they would know what patience was.

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~The spider is a model of patience itself. Its lifespan is doomed to be short unless it gets back to the mistress in time, anyway.~

Thomas Judge: Public lewdness and resisting arrest, he wonders how much time that was or maybe a fine or community service if they have that here.

Collin Anderson: The door opens, and in he walks. Standing at just a hair under six feet and physically fit, the man in front of you looks the part of power in his perfectly pressed power suit and tie. If pressed to estimate his age, you might guess late 30’s, perhaps? His hair, a short honey blonde, is combed perfectly into place, and a pair of light, wire-rimmed glasses shield his keen, rich brown eyes, which look astutely around the area. His face is perfectly clean of facial hair, and despite his average face, he seems to cut an impressive figure from force of personality alone.

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~It feels the tremors of a new presence and scuttles out for a spider-eye view, just peeping out from the pantleg.~

Thomas Judge: He looks up at him, that power he projects picked up by the devil, this had gone up a notch, he smiles to the man, "Morning"

Collin Anderson: "Good morning, Jamal." He moves to take a seat across from the man, fingers lacing and coming to rest on the table.

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~The spider goes stockstill.~

Thomas Judge: He hates surprises, especally when he isn't the one giving them, that catches him off guard his face twitches as his name rings through his entire being, "Pardon mate?" To late he knows, who the fuck is this.

Collin Anderson: "i said, good morning." A slight quirk of a smile.

Thomas Judge: His composer is restored, but his mind is racing. "Morning mate..and you are?" he takes another drag from his 'cough', and this was going so bloody well, those blue eys taking in the man anew, eyes tracing lines, facial expressions, composer.

Collin Anderson: "My apologies." He smiles warmly. "We have not yet met. Tal-Kerioth, tyrant of the Infernal Court of New York City."

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~It doesn't move a single twitch.~

Thomas Judge: He hates surprises, especally when he isn't the one giving them, that catches him off guard his face twitches as his name rings through his entire being, "Pardon mate?" To late he knows, who the fuck is this.

Collin Anderson: "i said, good morning." A slight quirk of a smile.

Thomas Judge: His composer is restored, but his mind is racing. "Morning mate..and you are?" he takes another drag from his 'cough', and this was going so bloody well, those blue eys taking in the man anew, eyes tracing lines, facial expressions, composer.

Collin Anderson: "My apologies." He smiles warmly. "We have not yet met. Tal-Kerioth, tyrant of the Infernal Court of New York City."

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~It doesn't move a single twitch.~

Thomas Judge: His eyes show recognition at the name, he knew it, just never invoked it. "Jamal the CrimsonStar, bringer of the Red Sky, how are you brother." He nods his head, the demon was in a station of power, he deserved manners.

Collin Anderson: "I am well. And yourself?"

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~A trembling. The spider is near its life span, it had taken so long just to travel here and locate Tom. It will expire in a minute or two.~ ((As player will go back to work. *G*))

Thomas Judge: He grins "Ave been better, ave been worse in a bit of a pickle." He looks to Collin "I did try to make contact at your club, but you were never there, thought it rude just to call you out." and hadn't this conversation taken a turn.

Juliana Sarolta [spider]: ~The legs curl in, and the spider's body promptly rolls out of the pant leg and comes to rest on Tom's shoe. Though if he moves his foot, it'll fall onto the floor.~ ((Bye!))

Collin Anderson: He nods to that, looking almost apologetic. "Understood. I am a busy man."

Thomas Judge: He just nods, Tom's own composer changing, he was in the presense of another first. "Understood mate, may I ask what brings you ere now?" That did bother him, help or hinderance.

Thomas Judge: ((legacy roll on Tal-Kerioth?))

Collin Anderson: He shrugs. "I became aware of your...legal problems through my Host's job, as mayoral assistant. I believe I can offer you a solution."

Collin Anderson: ((Go for it))

Thomas Judge: He thinks that over, he never realised he was in such a postion, he bows his head at the solution part "And what would the solution be Tal-Kerioth?" He puts out the 'cough' and brings his hands together, this was becoming another deal, he could smell it.

Thomas Judge: ((- 1 diff due to dreams of past and spending one WP, he want to know who he is dealing with here))

Thomas Judge: 3,5,2,7,5,2,

Thomas Judge: ((4 Sux including WP))

Collin Anderson -> Thomas Judge: Jamal remembers Tal-Kerioth as a Devil from the Crimon Legion, a tactical advisor to Kilareous, one of Belial's generals. Brilliant tactician; Luciferian.

Collin Anderson: "Well...let's be honest, Jamal. With what you know of this Thanos individual, it will not be enough for the District Attorney. However, I have the power, in my Host's position, to make it have been enough."

Thomas Judge: His face loses a touch of it's look as he remembers his brother, a small smile creeps along his mouth, he had heard bad things about him, but at this point he was obviously his best hope, a tactician of the highest order if his memory served him correctly, which it did, he hardly forgot and they were coming easier to him now. He takes a moment to remember a time before. Then he is back, here and now. He nods "Am thinking in my understanding that this will be a trade, you said you ~have~ the power?" He pulls out another 'cough' that dirty monkey vice that he just loved, or was it the fire, the flame. He lights it, looking to Collin from the flame "What would you require from me for this assitance Tal-Kerioth?" He takes a deep drag, smoke filling the air.

Collin Anderson: A small smile, and a shrug. "Consider it a double opportunity, Mr. Judge. You have the opportunity to free yourself from a rathery lengthy prison sentance, as well as join the Infernal Court, as you have not had the opportunity to do so until today, as we have missed crossing paths. I may even be able to offer you a position as a Minister within the Court, as I have an opening."

Thomas Judge: He takes a moment...really how could he refuse, true he didn't want to be tied to the courts but with a backing like this, it was a good get out of jail free card and like most devils that cling to the light he thinks maybe, just ~maybe~ he could do some good there. "I would be honoured for you ro except me as one of your own, however the workings of the court are new to me, as is the postion of minister should it be offered." Polite, well mannered the cockney fast fading from his voice, devil talking to devil, that demanded attention, Jamal was driving now, Tom fancied a nap.

Collin Anderson: A moment's consideration. "For now, let us just work on your difficulties, and get you into the Court. What this means is that, while you will be answerable to the Court, you and any Thralls you have will also have portection by us. The Court is a member of the Treaty, and as such, so are all Court members. You and yours will be safe from all other treaty members, to start with. And, if this is agreeable to you, I will go get the paperwork prepared by the DA's Office right now."

Thomas Judge: His eyes half close...the treaty, always the treaty. Ammon, that kid...he forgot but it had something to do with that fucker who shot him. Vengence, tied hands...but what choice does he has, a long sentance, breaking out of jail...far more trouble, he mind was made up for better or worse "Then I Jamal the CrimsonStar, do swear my allegiance to the courts and all those associated there by, I will obey the treaty as if laid down by the court itself. I have no thralls though may have a few potentials but one would assume that is my business." The cockney fully gone, this was a deal now, a certain conduct was needed. He stands and then kneels before Tal-Kerioth as a sign of alliengence, just like back in the day.

Collin Anderson: He nods, a smile on his face. "Thank you, Jamal. It is good to see such wisdom, as expected, in my fellow Namaru."

Thomas Judge: He stands taking his seat back also a smile on his face, it had been a while since he had to serve another, but it felt right somehow, maybe this was for the best "Thank you for your understanding in this matter Tal-Kerioth, I appreciate the timely intervention and generosity you have extended to me." He picks up his fag as he lets more of Tom mannerisms back into his body.

Collin Anderson: A nod, and he stands up. "I will get to work on this...I expect you will be out soon enough, Jamal. Good day to you." He extends his hand to the man, all business.

Thomas Judge: He stands also and shakes his hand "My thanks once more Tal-Kerioth." He nods those blue eyes sparkling once more, out=freedom, he loved that word.

Collin Anderson: He smiles, and moves to head out.

Thomas Judge: He stays sat, mind wandering over all this new information, new loyalties, it had to be done, how did they put it. 'Better the devil you know'. He smiles at that.

Collin Anderson: ((All right, so here's how it goes down. Thomas is charged with Contributing to Public Lewdness, a Class B Misdemeanor. Tal-Kerioth gets them to drop the Resisting Arrest, due to the impossible nature of what happened, and the Attempted Murder charge is dropped due to the deal made.))

Collin Anderson: ((Actually, rephrase. He is charged with resisting arrest, which is a Class A Misdemeanor. Sorry to get your hopes up there.))

Thomas Judge: ((Good work Tal-Kerioth *s*))

Thomas Judge: ((Damn but still good work regardless))

Collin Anderson: ((Based on the DA's Recommendation, the Resisting Arrest equates to 1 year's probation, which is actually quite good, because you can spend a year in prison for Class A Misdemeanors. The Contributing to Public Lewdness gets him a two week sentance, another two month's probation, and a $1,500 Fine.))

Collin Anderson: ((He is officially released out onto the street...well, today. *G*))

Thomas Judge: ((the fine is no problem due to recent deals with Xu and Juliana, 2 week sentance, no problem, years probation, hell he has seen worse all in all a 'robin' deal!))

Thomas Judge: ((I would like to thank you Rav for a well constructed scene and a thinking sceen as well which I really enjoyed, here's to you *Claps*))

Collin Anderson: ((That's what I'm here for. *G*))
