Detective Murdoch? Mm... He’s a fascinating man. As I mentioned, he’s very clever at putting things together and developing interesting machines to accomplish tasks ranging from mundane to rather fantastic?
[He smiled a little,]
We have a very different way of approaching things at times, he gets very caught up in mm... experiments and the science behind things. But! That also means when one of us hits a metaphorical wall, we can move in another direction easily enough? Of course, it uh— also took us a while to get to that point. I’m afraid my methods were a little more scattered to him than his, and he thought me a fool at first.
[For all the others thought he hadn’t noticed, he had... Llewellyn had been used to being thought of as such, and back then he also had been rather difficult on purpose. He was too used to being dismissed; it felt safer to keep people at a distance... He’s been working on that.]
We’ve gotten better at understanding one another though... And honestly, I probably wouldn’t even still be able to be a detective if it weren’t for him.
