CC tried to behave but she does get testy "She's got me Lojacked, love" A huff "G. Wilde has me GPSed"

"Not an unforseen eventuality, Dearest." he points out "Hence the extra security."

"I feel like a prize heifer protected by a greedy cattle baron" mmmph

"Mmmm.... I do -love- role-play with you..." he smirks.

"Moans not moos" She taps her hoof

"I am open to whatever tickles your fancy." he soothes.

"you're incorrigible, you know that?" She does lean against him "So you think I SHOULD carry a tracker?"

He sighs. "A panic button, perhaps. Yes, we have magical options but you know they can be fickle. I would not wish to loose you."

"A panic button. Fine. I'll have her set it up.. for now. "

"Thank you." he kisses her hair "And the rest?"

"Oh, all of the security we've hired is good... even if I resent them a bit. " She says "And despite my bitching about G. Wilde GPS , she knows her stuff. Heck, a guy tried to grab my ass on the street and got his fingers broke by one"

"Excellent."

"Mind you, I enjoy my ass getting grabbed depending on the grabber" SHe bumps her but against him to demonstrate "But I will confess, that person isn't on the list of 'can do that' . Still, turned out just to be an entitled pervert. Not a true threat"

"It is still unacceptable." firmly.

"Well, yes. It is. And you are very sexy in these gallant moments" She admits

"Gallant? Hardly. Selfish."

"Perhaps both" she chuckles "you're a complex man, you can multitask"

"Perhaps. Mean while, this Evil Belgian Gentleman needs dealing with. I've paid some people to look into it....."

Reports have been tricky, but even that has been a clue. The man seems to be avoiding notice in his way, trying to avoid paper trails... still digitial options

Which while he is not adept at computer-based research, he can certainly pay people who are. And who are descrete.

G. Wilde seems to know her way around

And thus perhaps is the person to provide information.

So certainly, Emerson asked her to research and report.

G. Wilde enters "Sir, if this is about her complaint about the GPS, it's PRACTICAL and it doesn't do anything but find her location"

"No complaint at all. Not from me." with a twinkle.

"Relax, Miss Wilde. I bitched but I also concede. To a point" CC mmms

"Glad to see you got sense, ma'am" Nocker charm at work "But if this isn't about that, what do you need?"

"Your report on the Belgian."

"Oh yes" She pulls out a manila folder "Figure you'd prefer hard copy?" She offers it to him

"Thank you." He takes it and flips through, scanning.

The guy is an enigma... and that is telling. He's actually sued to protect his privacy, and EU laws allow for that. But he's not used to the digital, and apparently there's some odd inheirtance issues.

Yes. Seems 'mysterious bastard sons' or 'nephews' show up in this family line to show up and claim money from Century old bank statements

"Hmmm....." oh, there's something he dislikes here...

"Finacial records are through some Swiss banks... and you know what a pain in the ass those are. BUT in the internet age, even he can't hide"

A few pictures. An Evening gala here. A fine theatre under the open stars there.

"Hmm. No, I cannot say I like this at all."

"It's fishy, sir. I think he maybe jumping social security numbers or the Euro equivilent"

"Each country has its own system of alphanumeric tracking for government purposes including taxes, and there's an overall EU system as well." he murmurs absently. "Do we have a name on this .... person?"

"Besides Deniaud DeJanker? No, and there's good reason to believe it's not his real name"

"And why is that?" still scanning.

"Purchases seem to be mostly tickets and the like" she answers "his only public purchases. Unless he's paying cash for every meal?"

"If he's paying for his meals at all....." darkly.

"The furk?"

"Miss CC, could we talk in the... parlor?" he asks "Miss Wilde, you have been a ray of light in the darkness of my ignorance, and I thank you. Will you visit the kitchen with my compliments? See if they can't offer you something."

"You're the boss, sir, but I would like to point out that i can't help you if I'm kept out of the info loop. I quite litterally 'need to know' to be of utmost effectivness" with that though, she heads to the kitchen

CC watches her go "She's a pushy one'

"Forthright, as is her nature. To the parlor, Dearest." and he takes the folder with them to the Balefire.

And they go to the Parlor

Inside, he offers her the folder. "I have serious reservations about this... individual. But, read. And tell me what you think."

She reads it, then says "Child of Lilith"
