I should hope so. I'm sure I can think of something.
Only one thing, but that was to be expected as it mimics my cane in decoration. And it's hardly a superpower at that. I'm not really sure how to test it further but I will be trying.
Perhaps the three assassination attempts you have lined up will provide some added incentive.
Is there anything in particular you want in this world? Our interests already seem to be in alignment. I think we could certainly help one another achieve them, even if the ambassador thing doesn't work out.
I'm always up for any additional income opportunities.
[Not necessarily legitimate ones goes without saying.]

The porter has gifted me with enhanced memory and organization skills. I also have a background in urban warfare and a good amount of experience with explosives.
Plus a Classics degree.

Hm. So if I were to work on some classified scientific experiments and needed to store the data somewhere no one else could find it, would your mind serve as a suitable archive?
I'd have to physically read it all, but yes, conceivably.
If you'd be interested, I'd love to pay you as a contractor. I've been wanting to move forward toward more daring experiments.
Bear in mind I'd need to reproduce it as well, and if it means typing something out, I'd charge you by the page.
Money isn't really an obstacle. You charge whatever you see fit. So long as your services are worthwhile, I'll pay the price.
[A call comes in late at night. Say, 9pm. Business hours.]
Hello. Are you available?
Hello. Are you available?
As in right this minute? Also, for what?
I am not in that much of a rush. Unless you would rather I took my business somewhere else?
[There's only so many business opportunies afforded this time of night, and all.]

I didn't say that. It was simply a request for additional information.
This is hardly the sort of information one posts through the mailbox, Hans.
[Or speaks about over the phone.]
I'll have a friend fly everything over in the hour. That won't be a problem?
[As the crow flies and all that.]

You'll find everything in order, I assure you.
Call me back once you've had a glance.
[When the crow alights at Hans's and he opens a window or whatever, he will find an old-fashioned canister attached to its leg. Contents are a photograph of a floor lamp along with the address of a museum, plus a note simply saying "I'm certain you appreciate fine art."]

[Well, he won't look too conspicuous walking out with a full-size floor lamp. :\]
Are you certain about this? Seems a bit easy to trace.
[Someone walks into his home and says, 'Nice lamp! Didn't such-and-such museum report one exactly like that as stolen?']

Remind me again of the sort of people I invite into my home? Your concern is appreciated, but I'm hardly likely to plonk it in front of the window.
[Neither of them are foolish enough to display it publicly. Privately? That's another story.]

Fine, that's your problem, I suppose.
[Excuse him for a moment while he googles the museum and its collections.]
'This lamp is unique to Tiffany’s other pieces in that the shade cannot be detached from its base.'
That might be a bit awkward to transport.

Yes, but I hardly think that should be a problem? A puzzle to untwist seems like just the challenge for you.
[Gingerly, he's admitting Hans has skill.]

Undoubtedly.
[Just a little bit dry.]
I'll be in touch when the challenge has been risen to.

I'm looking forward to it.
[Equally dry.]
Well, then, I'll leave you to it.
