Forgive, O Lord,
my little jokes on thee...

Hal took the camera and started to scroll through the photos she had taken... and looked shocked.

"These are... a LOT of photos." he commented.

"...and I see Evan is sleeping on the job again." he then said. "I warned him about that." he commented, sounding unimpressed, before he then just sighed heavily. "Then again, this is what I get for hiring someone that is a cat. A literal cat." he then mumbled.

"So I cannot fault him for genetics." he said further.

"Plenty of Sebastien, too."

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Jordan just chuckled lightly.

"Yeah, you did hire a cat. Of course, she snooze when he gets a chance." She commented.

"However, at the same time, it really isn't much of a problem, I don't think. He's a light sleeper." She added.

"Also, of course Bast is in there a lot." She added with a chuckle.

"I live with him."

"That is fair." Hal admitted.

"Here you go." he told her, handing the camera back.

"I do hope you'll restrain yourself in taking some of these pictures." he then said. "Some of my staff may not like being surprise photographed." he reasoned, leaning back in his chair.

"...though Arryn will NOT be one of them." he mumbled.

"If anything, she'll want SO many pictures..."

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"Shame. My strength is the candid, natural, shots." Jordan commented.

"Seriously though, want me to delete that one?" She asked as she accepted the camera.

"As, really. Your call on that front."[b] She added before pausing.

[b]"And yes, I know. Arryn will want loads. Bast is insisting I get payment from her for it."

Again, Hal sighed.

"It's fine." he said. "As I said, my eyes aren't in the picture, and there's nothing sensitive to be seen. It looks fine." he assured her. "It's a good snap as well, would have been a shame to delete it." he then admitted.

"Regardless, payment is between yourself and Arryn." he continued.

"Her side business is her own affairs." he went on.

"So I have nothing to say in THAT regard." he finished.

"Where'd you get the camera, anyway?" he asked.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"It was actually a random stroke of luck." Jordan commented.

"Oh? What do you mean?" Hal asked, his face and voice curious.

"Apparently some dude was gonna pawn it, overheard my lamenting to Bast about how I needed a camera for school, and opted to just give it to me, as I'd be getting proper use of it."

"...that IS a random stroke of luck." Hal agreed. "Almost suspiciously so." he added.

"Bast and I thought the same." Jordan replied. "But... well, he'd been going through a messy breakup, said he didn't need the money, and that giving it to me was as much an act of spite towards his ex, as a random act of kindness to ME." she shrugged.

"Well, stranger things HAVE happened." Hal admitted.

He then looked at the camera again, and shook his head.

"Must have been a HELL of a breakup for him to give it to you, though..."

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"Must've been." Jordan agreed with a nod.

"Still can't believe my stoke of luck. This is a ridiculously high quality camera, and I'm thoroughly enjoying using it." She added.

"Most people seem to be interested too."

"I suppose a lot of people just haven't had their photos taken in such quality." Hal responded. "Without a studio behind it, anyway." he then added. "Professionals that charge exorbitant prices BETTER deliver quality." he muttered.

"On the other hand, you seem to be providing good quality for... well... free, in your spare time." he went on.

He then paused, and thought about something.

"If I recall correctly, aren't you in a course for photography?" he asked. "Sebastien mentioned it a while ago, I believe." he said.

Jordan nodded in response.

"That camera must be a real boon, then." Hal then said to her.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Jordan just laughed.

"Oh hell yeah." She agreed.

"you have NO idea how beneficial this thing is. I don't need to do much, if any, digital balancing or what-have-you." She told him honestly.

"Like..." She paused and stepped up, setting the cammera on the desk where had some space, and bringing up the one of him. She zoomed in on the photo on his hand, and told him to hodl his hand up to it.

When he did, the colours were almost identical. It was a little desaturated, but so little, that it'd be hard to tell without the live sample right next to it.

"Impressive." Hal responded.

He then looked at the camera again, noticing the brand.

"Ah, Sonitronic." he said.

"Yes, they ARE known for top-tier equipment." he chuckled.

"I've been thinking about getting a lot of their camera for my field agents. This may tip the scales into a definite." he then commented, scratching at his chin a little.

"Regardless, excellent quality."

...and I'll forgive thy

"Oh?" Jordan asked, her voice curious.

".... like.. body cams or something?" She then asked.

"I admit, I know... basically nothing about shit in here." She added with a laugh as she turned the camera off.

"Yes, and also no." Hal responded.

"Body cams would be helpful and useful, but I already have a supplier for those." he told her.

"I'm talking about actual cameras, for photos of a crime scene." he said.

"Or... well, yeah. Crime scenes. And the surrounding areas." he went on.

"...come to think of it, I am understaffed for those people..." he then realised.

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Jordan paused a moment, laughing slightly.

"well, that makes sense too." She commented.

"How many people do you HAVE for that kind of position, anyway?"] She then asked, sounding legitmately curious.

"And... do you even have a need for them?" She then asked, her voice a bit puzzled.

"I mean, don't you get like 99% of your cases from one of the local precincts for whever, and as a result, have it that there's already photos and shit?"

Hal nodded in response.

"I DO have a need for them." he told her.

"Granted, a good portion of of cases DO come from outside, however, many of them... are not from precincts. Oftentimes they'll come before the police get involved. So we need to secure and claim the site before someone sees something they shouldn't." he told her further.

"As for how many I have... not enough." he muttered.

"I currently employ... 4? I believe. Regardless, I need 1 or 2 more to make the workload a little more manageable." he reasoned.

"I'm not horrendously understaffed, but... understaffed for it, regardless."

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

"I'll let you know when I graduate." Jordan said after a couple of seconds.

"Unless you don't want a fresh grad that happens to be a vamire, as well." She added.

"I dunno. Just thought I'd throw my hat in the ring, to be honest. I'm not going for a super good degree that can make lots of money afterwards, reliably, after all."

Hal pondered for a moment, before shrugging.

"When you graduate, apply." he told her.

"I promise I will give you as fair an opportunity as I would anyone else that was qualified." he said further.

"But I cannot promise anything more than that." he continued.

"Just... apply, and try." he summarised.

"You seem to have talent, though, so your chances would be good."

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Jordan nodded.

"Will do." She said simply.

"anyway, I'm going to track down your sexy elf." She added with a smirk.

"I'll not keep her long, I promise."

Hal just shook his head.

"Yeah, yeah." he said.

"Just don't discuss it too loudly in public, and no legitimate photoshoots in office." he warned.

"An occasional candid is ONE thing, for private consumption, but I want her office life and model life to be separate. And she does too." he stressed.

"Understand?" he asked.

"Just be wary of the line, and don't cross it."

Jordan didn't ay anything before nodding.

"Of course." She assured him.

"I'll keep that in mind, and make sure nothing sensitive is in them. I can definitely do that." She added before pausing.

"As for Arryn, yeah. I get keeping work and home separte, and I can do that. I jut want to ask her about it... as dumb as it is because of course she's going to be interested."
