The dark man had skin like a ghost, almost translucent. He was only cared about two things, time and control. He gave people, things in exchange for those two things. Time or control. If you were thinking about him he had your time. If you made decisions with him in mind he had control. He had thought this almost his whole like, if you can have someones time you can have their life. If you decide for them you control what they do with that life. Most times thats how he ran his business. He liked to think of himself as a step before hell.
He kept people in this time debt until he needed a favor. It could be something small but it was always in proportion to what he traded with the people. Because people came to him because they wanted something. Everyone wants something, and they are willing to pay a lot. A lot of time, and and lot of control of their life to him.
In Trevor's case he knew something terrible Trevor did. He also knew that Trevor would feel bad if anyone found out so he knew he could use Trevor for a favor. But what he still wasn't sure.
