Should we attempt to sue for copyright infringement? I doubt the U.S. Courts would care, but perhaps we could appeal to a higher power? I’m only kidding, of course. Though, a “Cafe No Diner” does seem to be stepping in on our market. Infuriatingly, I haven’t been able to pull any notable connections among the five members of the Cafe No Diner. How five glorified coffee-chugging tourists have been able to stay under my radar is beyond me. But it’s only a matter of time until I make the proper connections.
Of course, there are the two who were working for Papa in the Pyramid. Though despite #53’s investigations and the notes #62 has been able to intercept from A23’s own channels, those two only ever appeared as “S.G.” and “A.C.” Speaking of intercepted communications, the only reason #53 was able to uncover this “Cafe No Diner,” was through a note left behind in a deadrop under the stadium bleachers. Such sloppy work for such a secure group of individuals… regardless, this is the contents of the note:
“Project was shut down by C&D using Philip to destabilize. Unlikely Philip survived unless Abby is feeling generous. Carl is still around and took two students with him to the Column. No point in taking out Carl now. We could attempt to reopen things in a better spot. We still have all of Papa’s notes and data. The experiment should be repeatable with the suitable catalyst. Will regroup with A.C. soon.
-S.G.
Cafe No Diner”
Perhaps calling them glorified coffee-chugging tourists belittles how dangerous they might be. They know of us, the Agency, and… and somehow, they seem to know who Abigail Hawthorne is. How? How!
Who the hell are these people?
