OD1701 (Oct 3, 2017)
Summary of Receipt
The rest of the Other Cafe shows up, having apparently tracked Pleasant (Mrs. Pleasant from Open Doors? probably yeah) to Long Beach before the trail ran cold everywhere. Umbra, also from Open Doors, seems to be helping him. ‘Big Guy’ has also returned, after possibly fighting ‘Aplut’, probably a new servant/ally of Umbra.

Well, that was a bunch of bloody nothing… we track Pleasant all the bloody way to Long Beach, and then POOF, he's gone! 100% GONE! Not here, not in the Otherside, gone **gone**. The crazy bug must've found a way into the Topside or worse. Lawds below, I didn't think that lot could crack that. Course, could be a trick of some sort. Mighty impressive trick, but knowing Umbra, I'm not too surprised if it does turn out to be one. The lad is impressive. I'll give 'im that.
So Pleasant is AWOL from seemingly REALITY. What else, what else… Oi right, Big Guy's back with us! Three cheers for that, if you know what I mean. No word on if Aplut survived last month's ordeal or not. I mean, I'd be right scared if they did somehow survive all that. But with Aplut down and out, Umbra will no doubt be fixing to fill that gap. So we need to keep our wits about us for new blokes joinin' the Dark.
RIGHT! We've got a guest, choice? We scored a barista from the otha' Cafe, and I christened him… Barista. I never said I was a clever bloke when it came to nicknames. New Guy and 'im should be taking care of Pedro. Big Guy is already well acquainted, but HR and Payroll should get to know him when he swings back 'round to Florida. Nice lad.
