-Shakes his head-Naw. Stickin' to me like glue, an' only gettin' worse. I try sleepin' on it and I get these, like... weird fuckin' dreams. Walkin' through the woods an' I see this guy... Big fuckin beard. He's tellin' me to come home and it's just...
-Shakes his head again-
Not comfy at all.

Uh- Yeah uh- we thought this was a secret door. What- what the heck does the sign say??-Leans back out-
...Arnold Shales: Paranormal Consultancy... Lawyer?
mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's mean... -has a look of recognition suddenly-
... Wait- -very confused-
Ah- was it-?
-shakes Mildred's hand- I wasn't aware that my office was a secret.
I must've forgotten to take the cave wall down outside my door.
Well that's a shame.
A darn shame, indeed.
-nods to Blake- I am indeed a lawyer specializing in the paranormal cases. Contracts, deals with demons, unfair bets in the power plays, ghosts, and a whole host of other such menageries.
I also do regular lawyer work.

Lake Spring/Shales Law Office
DUUUUUUUUDEDUUUUUUUUUUDE
Uh- Ahem! Uh... Huh. I didn't think uh... guys like those existed.
mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's mean-pokes Greg a little- I think I saw this guy in a dream yesterday when I was coming back from being stabbed...
-to Blake- Well, I come in a highly specialist field. So I wouldn't be surprised if people didn't think people in my line of work existed.
-chuckles- I think I might be the only one in the entire city of Dis. Maybe even the Province of Hell.
-to Mildred- I made a deal with a demon to practice law for eternity.
And so here I am.

-Inhale--Exhale-
'ey, thanks. Hate heavy shit like this, but I can't just cram it down today... But 'ey! Help me distract m'self from it now, yeah? What do you think about...

Cave Spring/Shales Law Office
...Wha- Really??? What'd he do in it??...
-tug at collar-
Well uh... Thank goodness you sound like a good lawyer!
mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's meanHe was discussing accommodation with me- and then he said- "Oh it doesn't look like your time, my mistake"
-to Mildred- Well, it was rather exciting at the time. This was of course the 1720s.
There was smoke, and fire- and I think I may have caused a small neighborhood fire from summoning the demon I made a deal with.
... I don't think anyone died from it.
-to Blake- I do come highly regarded!
... From the- few customers i have. My marketing is not that great.
As you may have guessed.
My fees are only high so that I can make rent on my home and office back in the City of Dis.
But I commute here, since I figured that this might be a good place to franchise!

Hah. Yeah, I'm all about keepin' nice an' warm when the snow hits.-Considers this-
...Shit, the weather ain't built for this sorta thing I jus' realized. Dammit! It looks cool, though!
Cave Spring/Shales
-nostrils flared-That's... that's both scary and relieving.
...In a cave?
mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's mean-to Blake- I believe in luck and chance opportunity- this is the first place I found, so I took it as destiny and built inside the airless pocket of cave with walls on both ends!
... Though I was going to tear down at least one of the walls... thank you for that by the way!
-to Mildred- As a half-demon from the result of my contract.
I take offense. I also consider it libel.
-he gets a menacing look in his eye, as he opens a drawer and takes out... paperwork- This is a formal declaration- I am suing you.
Yeah- it was- really weird at the time...
But hey- at least I got back, huh?

-cheerful tone to Mildred- Good day.
This is my office. Or well- study.
-he gets up from his desk to offer a handshake- Arnold Shales, you might have seen my profession by the door.
