Summary of Receipt
V leaves a receipt, mentioning that he’s stolen two CaD employees to join the Zulu cult - 2312 and 53. He also reveals that just about every single group is currently working together to stop the Cold: Zulu, the CaD, the Indigo Organisations, the Sons of Ill-Intent, the Obscure Obelus Order, and TLC. He does reveal that the Zulus are only going to help them stop Fate, and not go against Secret. Next, he ponders the CaD’s plan to use Bartlett and open the 8th Otherside Plane. It’s been sealed for 15 Spheres, though V’s only been around for 7 of them himself. TLC will try and provide help, but even still, the six seals are breaking - though that’s for them to worry about.

[SECURITY] AND & ARCHIVES
Once again, my sincerest apologies, Cafe and Diner. I did not intend to steal two of your employees for my little Zulu family, but… are we not all one big family now? Are things not in motion that are greater than silly little titles? Zulu, CaD, Indigos, Sons, Daggers, TLC, what difference does it make if we are all working towards a similar goal? Ah. But is it not interesting how much we share with what we fear? The Cold has its own motives, and so do we. It seems to me that the Cafe and Diner wish to put an end to ALL of the consortium calling themselves the Cold. But it wouldn’t behoove me to work against Secret, would it? No. I think it is no secret that I am only interested in breaking the bonds of Fate. For once Fate is out of the equation, we can resume our work.
Unfortunately, this means once the debts are paid, and our common enemies are put to rest, well, I cannot guarantee these silly little titles won’t mean something after all. I know for a fact the Daggers will want to move on. The Sons? Well, I fear they might stay true to their name once given a chance. And it hurts me, it does, to tear apart a family like yours, but the Zulu Family has their own plans, and Alex and Amber are center stage. So while I can hope that our goals can align in this moment and the next, I doubt they will. Then again, Secret did always have a soft spot for coffee, and perhaps you could grow a soft spot for secrets.
Mm, speaking of coffee and, more importantly, what the Cafe has been brewing lately, Daiquiris? How refreshing. I love a good Daiquiri though I have never had the pleasure to try one myself. Very few have. It would be… well, what? 15 since they were on the menu? That’s a long time. I’ve only been around for 7 or so myself. I am sure you understand the risk you are taking in trying to serve them. Tender love and care can only push things so far in your favor, but I fear Daiquiris lie outside of even our control. Though I can understand why Jericho might want to put the Fountain out of my reach as soon as possible. And if I understand things correctly, you intend to use the Dover Demon to break the seal to the eighth plane. Risky business, Cafe and Diner… we are running out of seals to keep, well, sealed. Three down, three to go… not looking good. But I will save that for my other clandestine group project. Always busy, busy, busy. No rest for the Wicked… well, Secret, actually.
