Marcone Manipulating Harry.

(1/5) > >>

Con:
Marcone Manipulates Harry to deal with all of his Supernatural threats. Beginning in Storm Front Marcone was trying to get Harry to work for him, but I think this entire time he just figured out a way to get Harry to work for him for free.

 Think about it Victor Sells- threat to his business and his life.
 The Hexenwolf FBI who were on a task force to stop him, the Lycanthropes Biker Gang who were a threat Organised Crime wise, The Loup Garou who was blocking his development project.

Bianca who had the best Escort agency in town who Marcone somehow managed to steal away from the White Court despite the fact that White Court deal in Lust (I suspect he gives them 10% out of courtesy).

Death Masks Harry tracks down the Shroud for him.

Blood Rites Dresden cripples the White Court and saves a bunch of kids. Dead Beat Marcone gives him a direct hint to someone who has hurt one of his employee's.

White Night Marcone gets Harry to make him a Freeholding Lord.

Small Favour- Enough said.

Changes Harry takes down the Red COurt which was in Marcones best interest.

Ghost Story Harry prevents a minor noble of the Fomor and previous enemy from posing a serious threat to Chicago.

Cold Days- Prevention of the Apocalypse.

Skin Game- Marcone gets his own private swiss bank (every mobsters dream) of Supernatural creatures, favour with Mab, gets back at Nicodemus and gets a box full of Diamonds.

Face it Harry you work for Marcone for free.

I have to agree that Harry spends a fair amount of time helping Marcone's interests. Harry sees Marcone as a necessary evil. But, Harry has stated that Marcone is, also, on Harry's to-do list.

Yeah, kind of like what Mab said about Uriel in Small Favor, they had a common interest on that particular day..

More or less.

Marcone wants the worse monsters gone because they impact his business/break his 'Rules'. Harry wants them dead because they're Basically Supervillains. So Marcone gives him just enough aid to allow Dresden to succeed in what he was going to do anyway and reap the rewards.

Harry doesn't work for Marcone, Marcone has just gotten really good at riding the coattails of Harry's self-appointed crusade against Evil.

Good way to sum up their relationship.
