With a low sigh of frustration, Sal fished another cigarette out of the crumpled packet that she kept in the back pocket of her jeans. She wasn't sure about Nestor, having just met him, but Sal was sure, very fucking sure, that whatever icy demon he carried with him was trouble. Hell, she'd almost managed to start a fight, and if the bobblings appreciated anything it was a good fight. Lead by Gir the Mighty, the miniature monsters had settled into a simple formation that resembled a wedge, and were doing their best to menacingly eye the company employees, chief among them Nestor. Puffing up a small irritated cloud of smoke, she nodded in the direction of bobbling creatures and gestured towards the front door.

"Oi, bobblings. How's about you point your weapons in a useful direction. I told you on the way here, company employees are our colleagues. Colleagues? Allies, friends, whatever, you get the idea. As I was saying, we don't stab our colleagues, [b]unless[/b] they are really asking for it. Savvy? Good, now go keep a lookout. You know, setup a perimeter or something. What? Yes, watch for people or spooky things. Yes, exactly, like that entity Eir just tried to stab. There shouldn't be anyone else arriving, this is practically the sticks. What! [b]No![/b] I said watch, not kill. If you see something you tell us!"

Watching the bobbling creatures fade out the door, Sal ran a hand wearily though her hair. Her small army was proving to be more trouble than she'd expected. And worse still, they'd already polished off all of her whiskey.  Turning towards Atticus, Sal grimaced apologetically, "Sorry about that, boss, I figure it wouldn't hurt to have some backup, and the bobblings, well, they come pretty cheap."

Idly kicking her suitcase shut, Sal sauntered further into the house with the still burning cigarette lazily held between her lips,"I'll take a look at the room where the late Miss Trune, summoned whatever it was she summoned. There are only so many ways you can conjure something powerful enough to leave behind this bad of an aftertaste. Feel free to join me if you fancy hearing an expert opinion on summoning spells gone wrong."
