[Kay doesn't notice the new arrival, as she's too engrossed in her novel. That is, until she hears a familiar voice saying her name. She looks up - and all she needs is a moment's look at the defense attorney to gasp with surprise. Of all the people she could run into at this restaurant...]

Trucy!

ignoring the fact that kay should be several years older than her y/y?

[legallymagic]

[ all the frustration in the world couldn't last when Trucy bumps into a friendly rival, the sight of a familiar, sympathetic face making the dingy restaurant look a whole lot brighter and warmer. ] How've you been? [ it feels like an age since she saw the other woman in court, spending far too much time in small trials against the Paynes. Sigh, how that family was still prosecuting she'd never really understand. ]

/IGNORING BECAUSE THIS IS AU, WE DO WHAT WE WANT

[crowsecutor]

[Kay waves, beaming. Well, this was an interesting turn of events. How long had it been since they saw each other, in court or out of it?]

The storm's going nuts and I don't have an umbrella on me, but otherwise I'm okay. [Indeed, getting stranded hasn't affected her cheery demeanor much.] How 'bout you?

WUTEVA WUTEVA I DO WHAT I WANT /cartman

[legallymagic]

Well, I have an umbrella, but I also have a case. [ The last word is said with a wrinkle of the nose that Kay can probably recognise as the frustration of a lawyer whose case is topsy-turvy. She thinks she finally understands what Ema meant all those years ago by "why can't we have a normal, straightforward killing?!" ] I'm guessing you're getting better billings than me, huh? [ The dingy local courts she ended up in were, well, sigh... if she'd known about this part of defending, she would have been a full-time magician.

Okay, well, probably not. But still! ]

IT'S WHAT AUS ARE FOR

[crowsecutor]

[Oh. Kay's smile slips a notch and her brow furrows in sympathy. She's had her share of topsy-turvy cases.

The prosecutor shakes her head.]

Not all the time. And you don't have to deal with the worst of the police force. [Ema and other detectives and some of the police officers are okay, but the rest? MAJOR HEADACHE.]

YEAP

[legallymagic]

[ Oh, you know what? Trucy's just going to sit down and chill with you, Kay, because it's not like she has interviews to do. ]

You've got me there. I'm surprised that they let Mr. Meekins become a detective. [ She dealt with him. Once.

She never wants to do that again, and she likes weirdos. ] ... Is he still a detective?

[crowsecutor]

I...he pleaded with me not to let him go and wouldn't stop groveling at my feet, so I gave him one more chance.

[Kay looks at Trucy sheepishly and it's obvious that she's really hoping she made the right choice, letting Meekins stay on for a little longer. It shows in how she glances upward for a split second as if the answer is written on the ceiling.]

[legallymagic]

[ Sigh.

Well, she can understand, she supposes. It's not like it's an easy thing to fire someone - trying to fire the one magic assistant Trucy ever had was awkward as anything. He wouldn't stop pretending he was fine, that he didn't want to be there in first place.

Apollo really just needed to admit it. ]

I'm sure it'll be fine. I bet Detective Gumshoe will help him out.

[ Uh. ]

[crowsecutor]

["Fine"? FINE?!

But at the mention of Gumshoe, Kay relaxes a bit. Some things never change - she still believes very much in Gumshoe and as much as possible tries to be merciful to his paycheck. Unfortunately, sometimes he DID need a watchful eye.]

Hmm, yeah, I think he will. [Right?] Maybe it's time I got an assistant. Like one of those law student interns.

[legallymagic]

[ well someone has to make sure the man can eat. ]

Oooh. With interviews and everything? Sounds so successful. [ Assistants are fun. As long as they're not as grouchy as Polly. ]

[crowsecutor]

Exactly. [There's a mischievous glint in her eyes.] I want a smart one who'll work hard, but not a grumpy-faced assistant. They have to brighten up my life and make my job easier, not stress me out!

[She giggles.]
