MANAGER NO. 7

DATE: 2-20-2020

FILE REFERENCE: ABB05

TOTAL: PAID IN FULL

That was a bit of a disaster. Whoops. Well, like, it wasn't exactly our fault, though, was it? Me and No. 161 just lost track of time in a major way. But it's alright! We were still able to send Mrs. Celaeno on her way. Though her service was sort of a mix between Mrs. Kay's and Mr. Cowon's. She was not happy about the delay, but eventually, I think she realized that drinking a nice Ichor cocktail is better than being tied up waiting for service. Oh! Also, the light was different this time! When Mrs. Celaeno boarded her flight back to Quebec, the lights flashed a reddish orange instead of yellow, and a different part of my tattoo seemed to glow to match it.

As for whatever it was Mrs. Celaeno was protecting, we still have no idea. And we really don't have the time to figure it out. I think maybe even literally, we don't have the time for it. No. 3 went back to the stretch of road, and nothing unusual happened to her, though. And whatever it was, No. 26 and No. 161 were feeling seemed to have passed. I guess maybe when I sent Mrs. Celaeno back home, whatever she was protecting went with her. I guess we should still keep an eye on the general area, though, in case anything else pops up. Mrs. Celaeno did say she was working for someone, but she wouldn't say who.

Assuming No. 4 is correct, it seems like we now have a pretty solid idea of the four drinks Quebec customers seem to like the most: Apple Juice, Amazake, Ichor, and Mead. And from how Mrs. Celaeno spoke about Ichor, it seems to be a full-fledged cocktail similar to the other Quebec drinks. Like there's a full and accurate history of the drink that seems to match up with how they've been described elsewhere. It's definitely strange how these drinks seem to be torn right off the pages of books, but I guess that's what gives them their mythical qualities.

EMPLOYEE NO. 512

DATE: 2-21-2020

FILE REFERENCE: HHS07

TOTAL: $0.99 (Or maybe 0.96?)

Uh, I think I did this right? Well, if you're reading this I did! Hi! I'm No. 512, the new employee! You probably already knew that though. Oh gosh, what were the total codes again…?

0 The subject of the receipt. | 5 An occurrence.

1 A customer. | 6 The type of occurrence.

2 The customer's Name. | 7 There is more to this.

3 The type of customer. | 8 Coffee.

4 Location information. | 9 Miscellaneous thoughts.

Okay, so that would've been… 0? Right? The subject of this receipt is that I wanted to introduce myself! And this would be 9, now, right? Because I don't really have any customer to talk about, or a location, or an occurrence, and I doubt there is really any "more to this" than just me. But I figured I should at least say hi and try to figure out this CaDCom thing.

I'm sure you all have already been informed about my… situation. Oh! Wait! Would this be a 5 now? Or… a 6? I guess a 6, huh? How do you guys keep up with this? Uh, anyway, I have a very unique… disorder, which I would say is to die over but I don't think I can. Not only that, but I also have a sort of… fuzzy general knowledge of the coffee trade. Nothing too in-depth, but I know the major bits and pieces from when I dined with Dingane. So, I know about the seven main menu drinks and the general deal with customers from Ottawa. I don't know anything about customers from Quebec, but I suppose neither do any of you, really. As for keeping up with my appetite, according to No. 17, it shouldn't be too much of a problem, at least in the short term. The meal that Dingane provided me with should keep me fed for quite some time. Of course, I still get a bit hungry, but No. 4 has said I can probably snack with some unruly customers if I get particularly hangry too.

I think that's it! I'm excited to be working with you all and thank you for helping me!

Right, so I feel proper rotten for what 'appened with Vizago, yeah? I mean, the geezer is a bit cheeky, but he don't deserve to 'ave 'is tab ringed in if we can't find 'is boat race. Well, if I can't find 'is mug. I s'pose it's me problem to sort out, ain't it? But I ain't gotta go it alone neither. I've asked Roufyrouf and our new kipper tie to go see an old china of mine to see if he can't fix this mess up.

We're gonna go see me mate Hugo, or I reckon we'd call 'im "Mr. Taga," yeah? Used to be called Mr. Paker, but that was a right sorry moniker for the poor lad. I reckon that's what years of hatin' each other over nuffin' will do to ya. Back when it was just Paker, a right split and flip did the trick, but now it's just shorthand for 'is full name, Tagapagbigay. As you can guess, 'e's quite the giver. And that's exactly why I'd like to pay 'im a visit. I'm 'oping 'e can give me exactly what we're lookin' for.

See, Mr. Taga's got a rather special stone 'e carries with 'im. They say this stone's got the powers of the creators of the universe in it, and if 'e 'ands it over, you can make a wish on it. 'Course wishes ain't free, ain't it? There's a 'eavy price to pay to use 'is stone, but I reckon I'm already in the red, so what're a few more quid on me unendin' debt. Plus, it's not guaranteed, either. Sometimes, if the wish is right, the fee gets waived. Course, this is all a bit flowery, seein' as it's in the Diner, but I reckon you could get the gist, yeah?
