It was the dinner rush, people filing in to the diner and picking seats where they could. Plates clinked and food sizzled in the background, orders shouted to the cook heard over laughter and conversation. It was just enough noise to keep Lindsey from completely disappearing inside his mind as he worked, seated at the end of the counter. He'd stayed late to get some more work in but the quiet on his floor had begun to get on his nerves. Strangely enough, it'd never felt like that in his old office.
He ran a hand through his hair, pushing it back from his face as he scanned over the police report once again, looking for any minute detail that might assist him in making his case. A waitress making her rounds stopped on the other side of the counter, motioning with the carafe. He nodded and slid his mug towards her before returning his attention to his work.
When nothing particularly helpful could be found, he shuffled the papers back together and dug through the folder. As he lifted it to look for his pen, a small card slid out onto the counter and came to a stop against the mug. He picked it up and just about tossed it dismissively back in when he saw the bold letters printed across the middle of the card. Wolfram and Hart. In the bottom left corner, in smaller letters, his name.
There was a small trash can on the other side of the counter, easy enough to toss the card into, but he couldn't force himself to make the effort. Instead, he dropped it on the counter and picked up the previously missing pen, turning his attention back to the papers in front of him.
