*sigh*
It is confusing to me that this of all things seems to be a stickler for you and Henchwench. And yet it wasn't for Jason or me. LOL
In terms of backtracking: Not at all. I see your point. But I am going by what I remember. With that one statement I probably did give the impression to Jason that David is a cop. Or a parole officer. Or a commissioner. Or one who answers the phones. LOL I simply did not go into specifics at this time. Is it a stretch? Maybe. I can understand where you and HenchWench are coming from. But at the time it seemed to be the right thing to do. By not going into specifics Jason will not be offended when I finally tell him exactly what David does. And you know what? If Jason pressed me further about it, I'd tell him.
Also, I disagree about what lawyers do. They pratice law in the courtroom to ensure that client's rights are protected, and that those who break the law are prosecuted and punished. By working in conjunction with the court system, they make sure that the law is upheld and enforced. Again, I don't see a deal-breaker, and I am confident that Jason wouldn't either.
Basically, I played it off.
It's cool.

But Zink really has the crux of what's going on from my standpoint.
It's about timing. I have every intention of shedding the full light on everything for both men...but
in time. Jason has enough to deal with without knowing that he's sleeping with the ex of a lawyer he may run in the same circles with. That's confusing and he's already kinda paranoid. I don't need to add to that.
And remember, this is all transpiring in a matter of days. For him, it's a lot to take in. Timing is everything. No worries.
