Reflect on the past year in your life. Did you have children? Did you find 'God', forsake God? Did you marry? Break up? What was this past year like in your life?I died. I came back. I was given kittens. I dated Alan. I had a run in with Angelus that I prefer not to discuss. I went to Rome with David. I broke up with Alan, yet continued to

He couldn't just stay dead, could he?

I'm just so worried about all the potential orphans, what with the Tsunami thing and all.

[lawyer_girl]

No one stays dead, it seems. So unfortunate.

The potential orphans will have lots of families that will want them, I'm sure.

[davidshaw]

I wonder if they'll loosen international adoption laws.

[lawyer_girl]

It's possible, I suppose. Still, none of them are coming to live with us.

[alan_shore]

If you could attempt to raise Eyghon, I don't think a child would pose any problem at all.

[lawyer_girl]

Let's think about my career for a moment. Now, how many demons have I come in contact with? Three hundred? More? And how many children? None. I can handle demons.

[alan_shore]

Children aren't nearly as bad as demons, although naming one Alannah might be pushing your luck.

[lawyer_girl]

I beg to differ.

[da_renee]

Why exactly is it that you don't want kids?

[lawyer_girl]

Because I don't like them.

[davidshaw]

Lilah. You don't have to justify your decisions to anyone.

This is a decision we made together, to not have children. It's our business. And it doesn't matter what anyone aside from us think of it.

[da_renee]

Geez David, it was just a question.

Ms. Morgan --

I was glad to learn that you are once again working for Wolfram & Hart. A contact of mine on the west coast was tight-lipped about the details, but now that I've reached you, I realize they were ultimately correct. At any rate, I've been given your name and e-mail by said contact and would like to inquire about any upcoming events that might require my services. Now that I am in the area, I am actively seeking out like-minded business contacts.

This might be a shot in the dark, but I'd like to give you my card and inform you that I'm available and seeking contract employment. I work freelance and under my own supervision, typically, but I'm also willing to work in a research capacity. My background is in demonology, specifically summoning. I know some magic and I can speak in seventeen better-than-mediocre demonic languages.

Please contact me at your earliest convenience. I'm willing and eager to do what I can for the eastern branch of Wolfram & Hart.

Sincerely,

Tucker Wells

Lilah's certainly intrigued by the information she's found on her desk that morning, the letter and the contact information. She's heard of Tucker Wells before -- that incident in Sunnydale, so she picks up the phone and dials the number provided.

[bitter_brother]

Tucker's head's a little foggy from the beer. He's sitting in Miwa's kitchen, now that she's gone to work, on his first cup of coffee.

When his cell phone rings in the pocket of his coat, he barely registers it. Picking up on the final ring before the voice mail picks it up, he answers, "This is Tucker."

If it's Miwa asking him to make sure he takes out the recycling, her koi is getting flushed.

[lawyer_girl]

"Tucker Wells. Lilah Morgan. Interesting resume you've slapped together here."

She's still glancing over it, noting that he speaks more demonic languages than Wesley seems to know.
