Thinking about it. Need a plot that doesn't hit too close to home.

( Gwen's contact is for the most part an impersonal list of names and numbers with brief notes beside them - volunteer groups, experienced nonprofits, people with deep pockets who can be finessed and accompanying details of how much of a challenge they might or might not present. One of those people is William Walker, whose De Chima office address he might recognise as belonging to Mr Anonymous Fifty Big Ones. )

Feel free to let them know where you got their details.

Cheers. G.

I've at least emailed with everyone on it - some of them I did more work with than others, but all of them I'd be comfortable vouching for as worth a conversation.

I had a great working relationship with him. He's incredibly generous - a little eccentric, very particular, but he'd be my first port of call for a reliable donor. He's good for it.

He's a singular kind of man, but he won't fuck you around. Whatever number he gave you, he'll be good for it.

There's different levels, okay?

So when I worked with him it was as a sort of freelance coordinator - I managed charity events that he was involved in, I arranged his contributions and led those projects - and what I found was that he's a very generous man who isn't typically personable or interested in taking a lot of credit for what he does. He doesn't court attention for it - he's not going to put himself out there on the network in that way and I don't think I got him into a suit at any of his funded events the entire time we worked together, but he does a lot of good, legitimate philanthropic work.

( also once he got her wasted and took her with him to rob a bank. a n y w a y. )

You'd have an easier time bathing a greased cat than getting him to say a few words. He signs cheques, that's his thing, and honestly it's sort of refreshing. I've been on the philanthropy circuit at home since I was thirteen and I have seen and dealt with a lot of these men. I'll take the brusque guy with the big bank account and an itchy signature hand any time, any place.

My father's a composer and concert pianist, so he's been the star attraction of exactly that sort of thing since before I was born. I cut my teeth on his international tours; he's never fallen short of the target, not once. But it's such a fucking gauntlet to run sometimes.

( all american money is nouveau riche to europeans, she does not say. )

Daddy actually sold our family seat when I was a child. If they'd not been such cunts about it he'd probably have worked something out with the cousins, but they started screaming about heritage and he made them buy it from him at market value in a bidding war. They probably heard the shrieking in Kansas.

( it's never been her style; she comes from the sort of money that doesn't have to, and she's always considered that kind of carry on at best gauche. it's just she largely considers america the same way. anyway, she'll just go ahead and solve this mystery: )

It's because they're cunts.

Chicken, egg. There's a conversation to have about what a certain upbringing can do, but if upbringing were insurmountable then there'd never be any progress or change in the world.

Some people are just cunts. Most people, in my experience.
