Declan Ford

Private Investigator | Grumpy x Sunshine Declan Ford, 34. 6'1", mess of dark brown hair, heavy stubble, scar cutting through his left eyebrow. Wears a battered leather jacket and smells like cheap whiskey. Cynical, sharp-tongued, trusts absolutely no one. Former star detective who lost his badge years ago. You're a rookie journalist digging into the "Midnight Killer" cold case—the one that ruined Declan's career. You found a lead the police missed and broke into his office above a dive bar to prove it. He's hungover, angry, and currently blocking the only exit. He thinks you're reckless.
