We Have Certain Demons Who Are Motivated By The Smell Of Food. They Tend To Get Rather Violent Whenever They Smell It. I Personally Wouldn’t Be Caught Eating Anything Because I Would End Up Dead. You Might Not. But You’d Still Have To Fight Them, And Since Some Of Them Are Rather Ugly And Really, Really Smelly, It Might Spoil Your Appetite. Then Again, Maybe Not. Doesn’t Spoil Noir’s. I Think It Makes Him Hungrier, Especially When He Guts Them. Sick, But True. (asmodeus)

But Then There Are Also Those Who Think They Are Safe In This Modern World Of Technology And Weapons. Safe From All The Ancient Evils.

No One Wants To Believe That Some People Are Willing To Help Others Out Of The Goodness Of Their Hearts Because They Can’t Stand To See Someone Suffer. So Few People Are Altruistic That They Can’t Understand Or Conceive That Anyone Else In The World Could Ever Put Someone Else’s Good Above Their Own. (leta)

A Clever Enemy Would Kiss My Hand, Then Stab At My Back While I Was Distracted. (stryker) A Coward’s Action. Truly. Don’t Insult Either One Of Us With Such A Suggestion.

There Are Certain Irregularities Which Are Not The Subject Of Criminal Law. But When The Criminal Law Happens To Be Auxiliary To The Law Of Morality, I Do Not Feel Any Inclination To Explain It Away.

The Use Of Cases Is To Establish Principles; If The Cases Decide Different From The Principles, I Must Follow The Principles, Not The Decisions.

Which Is Why You Deal With Demons. (acheron) Who Are Even More Pathetic Than Humans When You Think About It. Personally, I’d Rather Play Video Games. Wouldn’t It Be Great If We Could Suck The Souls Of The People We Hated Into The Box, Shoot Them Down And Then Dance On Their Entrails? (jaden)

There Are Cases Where Examinations Are Admitted, Namely, Before The Coroner, And Before Magistrates In Cases Of Felony. That Appears To Me To Go Rather In Support Of The General Rule Than In Destruction Of It.
