The thing about Alexander Hamilton, Karen finds out, is that he’s like a goddamn sponge–ask him about a topic he doesn’t know about, and the next day not only does he know it inside out, he has Opinions about it that he’s absolutely willing to defend with both words and fists.
More the former than the latter, these days, but sometimes–well, Karen really wishes she wasn’t the only member of the Nelson & Murdock PR department.

Anonymous asked: Okay, so, question about the HamDevil AU (which is everything to me, by the way, I adore it): how the hell do clients react when they wander into dinky broken-down Nelson and Murdock and get told "This is Alex Hamilton, he'll be handling your case, if he gets off on a ramble ignore him, and make sure he puts the right year on your file because Karen might kill him if he keeps dating them 1804"?

and word has a tendency to spread in Hell’s Kitchen, so N&M experienced a brief boom in popularity, during which a fuckload of clients specifically requested that Hamilton handle their cases. said clients v quickly found out that the musical was not exaggerating when it came to his, er, verbose tendencies.
