Ohhhh Strange does not want to talk about this. But Carly told him about what happened to her, it's only fair that he tell her what happened to him.
"I was," Strange admits. "The Jonathan Strange of Portland made a contract with Nightshade. He broke it and left me to pick up the pieces." Really, fuck Portland Strange. And because he knows that he didn't exactly give a good explanation, Strange continues talking.
"I obtained my full memories sooner than most—that Jonathan Strange arranged it so Nightshade could restore them. But fae contracts don't take into account things like memory loss or false pretenses. Breaking the contract was enough for Nightshade to see how I broke the contract and take possession of me. I was in her realm for under a week before she enthralled me and charged me to help reclaim Steven."
