Hello, she says to arson angel. There is an outstanding warrant for your arrest on charges of arson and I wanted to speak with you about it.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!" says arson angel.

Permalink

I don't mean to scare you. I want to resolve this in a way that is satisfying to you, if that is possible. 

Permalink

"Aaaaaaaaaaaah!"

She will just wait, how about that. 

 

She waits to talk to the angel in the salon until they are done in the salon.

The arson angel cringes for a while, then attempts to tunnel out the back of his cave.

The salon angel works for a while and then leaves work for the day.

She does not want the arson angel to tunnel out of his cave; that should stop working.

 

 

Hello, she says to the salon angel, There is an outstanding warrant for your arrest on charges of altering people without their consent and I wanted to speak with you about it.

The arson angel goes "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

The salon angel says something in an angel language.

If you'd rather answer your summons to answer these charges, you can do thatshe tells the de-angeled angel.

I don't speak your language, but you can answer me like this, she tells the other one.

Permalink

The arson angel sobs into the fluffy wall of his cave.

What do you have to say? asks the salon angel.

Permalink

I recently made contact with the human world that tries to do justice in these cases. I would like to see it done better, which involves making it surer that people who commit crimes answer for them but also making it surer that the punishment is not excessive and not disruptive to those pursuits of yours that don't involve harming other people.

I see, says the salon angel, continuing on her way home.

Permalink

If there are extenuating circumstances or other information I should have about what you did, I would like to hear it. 

Permalink

Does your legal system entitle me to representation?

Permalink

It does. 

Permalink

Then I don't think I had better talk to you until that's sorted out.

Permalink

Nothing you say to me will be used as evidence, but that is a very reasonable preference. I will accompany you while you arrange representation, unless you intend to do that by answering the summons for you.

Permalink

You are not welcome in my home and not entitled to listen in on my interactions with counsel, and it may take me some time to find anyone with expertise in your legal system with an interest in representing me.

Permalink

I am concerned that if I do not follow you around you might forget to be working on those arrangements, but I am happy to stay outside your home and not listen to your conversations.

Permalink

I believe most jurisdictions also consider stalking a crime.

Permalink

Lots of conduct is permitted in order to serve an arrest warrant which is not otherwise permitted. I am not sure what purpose it serves for us to educate each other on our respective understandings of different legal systems. Would you prefer that we both remain here while you arrange for counsel? That is feasible.

Permalink

Perhaps you could tell me who is an expert on legal proceedings which involve extradimensional enforcers? I was expecting them to be hard to come by.

Permalink

I think it is typical to arrange a lawyer once you show up. I can recommend you some but it wouldn't be safe for them here, they're incarnates.

Permalink

But if the selection of representation is inadequate in some way I will find myself already trapped and bound whether anyone eventually produces a lawyer or not.

Permalink

That seems like a serious drawback to the human system. Do you have suggestions on how it could be modified to resolve that?
