#to clarify for anyone unfamiliar with the us legal system bc the game itself gets it wrong: law licenses are state by state#and montana and georgia specifically have different bar exams#and multiple characters refer to him being a lawyer in the past tense.#which i think could allowably mean ‘‘before the reaping’’ or that it’s no longer his *primary* occupation#but i think ‘‘before he came to hope county’’ is more straightforward#and while i certainly think he was de facto operating as legal counsel for the cult and characters mention him doing so#most of what he was doing wasn’t anything that would require he actually be a lawyer#like he was just doing bribes and threats and negotiations any old guy could do that.#i don’t think his ass ever stood up in a court of law in montana and entered his appearance on a case.#and there would be several reasons he wouldn’t want to draw the heat of submitting to a fresh character and fitness exam to be admitted#(i do not acknowledge the dlc as canon but i begrudgingly admit it supports my argument here)#anyways.#this could be a fandom settled discussion i just missed. but people (including myself) often refer to him as a lawyer in present tense#so i am curious how many of us mean that as in literally licensed in montana#john seed#only polite discourse please
