Detective Biography
Come into my office. It's a bit small, I like to call it cosy. If you can call anyplace in this draughty old church cosy. Right in the corner of the inderground vault, the plaque on my door reads "Director, Public Relations"
Public Relations, I ask you! What kinda job is that for a dedicated Sleuth? But then, the job needs doin' and no-one else around this place is gonna do it. Marylou, she's the founder of this most prestigious establishment. Markie P, he's the brains of the outfit; or at least, the proofreader. Walking dictionary, that one. Then there's V, and that's all you need to know, sweetcakes. You could say she's the schoolteacher feature. Y'know the one, you didn't misbehave in her class! And Neritina, addin' that touch of French class. She got the office by the entrance, wowin' all the clients as they enter.
So that leaves me, of the directors. There's some up and comin' officers in the outhouse buildings, but they ain't gonna want my job any time soon. I spend so much time at City Hall, I can't see my desk for cases dumped on it waitin' for my attention. And they wait. What with keepin' up with the hunts, keepin' the Bloodhounds fed (How is that Public Relations?), keepin' track of the highscores and rebuilding the Tricky Mister after that terrible fire I never get to actually catch the bad guys!
Ya know what my Biography entry in the Sleuth Archives useta say? I'll tell ya:
"Siren by name, Siren by nature. When I unloose my charm on the city lowlifes they crack, every one. So what if I have to get a little friendly sometimes? I'm trying to keep a pretense of decency alive in the rotting depths of civilisation. I'm a moral saviour, me. And I'm good at it. So Watch Out."
See? That's a real sleuth's bio. That's from back before my promotion, when I was doin' real work. Now I use my specialist skills to talk Shady down when someone gets drunk and gets a false on their record.
Anyway. My office. Have a cup of coffee. Try to ignore the shoutin'; that's Neritina tryin' to blag cash off Tollo. Typical French gal, spends all her dough on fancy clothes and can't afford any bribes. She's waited 'till Tollo's drunk, but Tollo's sharper than that. She ain't havin' none of it. It's a madhouse here, I can tell ya. I've got a baby too, he's about somewhere; probably with Markie. They get on great. His father's out the picture, of course. Men, they're not worth it, I tell ya. Markie's ok though. And GK, of course, hard worker, that one.
Your coffee hot enough? I got some milk somewhere- oh right, I ran out. Wait, I'll send Chazel out for some. No? It's no bother, I'm sure I saw her hangin' around... OK. So, we're a great agency; number nine in Sleuthville; how about that? We work great together, there's no "I" in team, ya know, ha ha.
What? You wanted to know about me? What on earth for? It's the agency that's important, and we're the best team you're gonna find!
