Subject: Recap

It's so weird to just have my name on a receipt like it's nothing. I kinda like it, though. I'm not sure how Astrid would feel about it, seeing as we're still technically "Astorian Property" and all. But it's nice to have receipts again! I am so sick of all these Astorian reports covered in that signature Astorian brand black highlighter. It's nice to be back in general. I mean, I've already been helping the Folistes out for a while behind the scenes. I hope everyone's been digging the little lyrics I've been picking out for the Archive Hub. It's always fun to share some of my music with others.

At least our partnership is Baltimore now. Names or not, Astrid wants us to help Amber and her other Folistes out. We've been dealing with some other business, but Astrid has had us keep a very close eye on the new Shakas. With Division Zulu breaking off from the Agency, Astrid'll need all the help she can get. Plus, there are some bigger things currently at stake. The usual Cafe and Ampersand affairs—big nasty Universe-ending threats, dangerous and deranged customers, and clandestine cups of coffee to serve. We've got Willow DeWeaver and her missing sky, for starters. Then there's Secret's many, well, secrets. And, of course, Bingo.

I assume, despite our names, we're back to business as usual, right? Cafe in everything but our name? So, I'll leave the juicier specifics to the Cafe. Wouldn't want to step on toes—Folistes’ or Alfa’s. But our next steps are clear: we need all the help we can get. Every single former employee who isn't dead, friendly, or otherwise unavailable. It's time for one last hurrah before we all go our separate ways again. Hopefully, this time, with fewer cult leaders and bad blood between baristas.
