Marcone's Power Base
K.L.O.E.:
--- Quote from: Griffyn612 on November 22, 2020, 05:33:29 PM ---I'm willing to accept that he was a cop in Chicago and then New Orleans, and came back as a cop and applied to join the FBI and got accepted. The big question is just how much he might know about the supernatural world. If some, then the Feebs might put him on a secret group like SI. If none, then he's probably just a regular special agent.

So the timeline for Rich/Rick/Dick would be something like: Academy, Officer in Chicago, Marries and Divorces Murphy, Goes to New Orleans, Arrests and Marries Lisa, Gets into the FBI, Goes back to Chicago. He could have bumped into a victim of the Red Court or the La Chaise dynasty during his time in Louisiana.
--- Quote ---I had started writing a fanfic ages ago about Marcone being exposed to the supernatural during his time in the military, but stopped when Butcher said he was going to be doing short stories from his perspective. (I prefer to write peripheral stories that won't be contradictory to canon)
I could see there being a section of the military that knows about the supernatural, and if Marcone crossed paths with them, they could have him on a list. Such connections could easily lead to contacts in different agencies, like you're describing.

Both the encounter with the supernatural and list ideas make sense, heck the list may be how the Librarians recruit their people MIB style.

He gets into the FBI before marrying Murphy Spice, but something like that. He hadn't started working for the FBI in Chicago during the Murphy Family Picnic.
--- Quote ---Rich has already put in for his transfer and had it approved. He'll be working for the FBI office here in Illinois.
--- End quote ---
Taken literally, this means that he was already working for the FBI, requested a transfer from his current assignment to Illinois, had it approved, and hadn't yet started in the Illinois office. (There's actually two Illinois FBI offices. I assume he transferred to Chicago because of PG).
