LMFAO. Poor Mycroft, i feel your pain. Every time i see those chocolate croissants at Starbucks i similarly curse my four years studying the french language.
Very funny. Manly fisticuffs. Very much so. Mycroft could take up sumo wrestling, i suppose.

I was going to have Mycroft's mistress be someone recognizable, but after Wikipedia searches on prime ministers' wives of the 1890s and Victoria's daughters-in-law provided no one suitable I abandoned that idea.
Clothilde ("Clottie") is the wife of a senior official at either the German or Austro-Hungarian embassies (she won't tell me which one.) She gives information to Mycroft not so much to weaken her country's position but to prevent/postpone a war between the Great Powers. Her father was a professor of Eastern languages, and she's unusually well-educated for a diplomat's wife but doesn't have much of an outlet for her intellect other than working for Mycroft.
