(Bargain) Get one clue about Dee
"That Dee Langley is a real thorn in your side, isn't she? She's like a dog with a bone. Always has been. It's difficult to shake her off of your scent once she's decided to go on the hunt. Of course, as ever, the way to deal with her is magic, hm hm hm! You've made the right choice."
"I gave you a hint just now, didn't I? Dee Langley was a much different person in the past. Just as headstrong, but also ambitious and emotional. It was an encounter with my family, the Crofts, that set everything wrong for her, undoing a promising career and turning her into a social outcast at her own workplace."
"A certain criminal pulled off a heist on the mainland and made out like a bandit... well, I guess he was a bandit, wasn't he? He was an old family friend and my dear mother, rest her soul, was kind enough to help him evade the long arm of the law. We Crofts have to make our fortune somehow, hm hm hm. Don't try to pursue that case. It's gone very cold."
"But back to the matter at hand: hiding him from Dee wasn't enough. My mother buried her. We falsified accounts and made it look as though the Crofts had taken a huge financial hit due to the incompetence of the lead officer! Cruel, but effective. Dee went toppling down the ladder at Scotland Yard. A promotion was never to be in her future."
"She stuck with it though, didn't she? Have to give her credit for that. She's a different person now. But... a person with a grudge, wouldn't you say? She hasn't really humiliated me-- I'm quite comfortable in the skin I'm in-- but controlling me to suck the cock of a random detective for humiliating the career of a detective in the past? One might call that justice!"
"You can handle the rest yourself, right?"
