NUMBER: WUW04
PRIORITY: CAFE
DATE: 23-12-17
CUSTOMER & ORDER: THE SOCIETY
SERVER: H.R.
We had another surprise visit from Nine! And he wants to join us as a Barista! Isn't that totally crazy? I really thought the Society was totally done with us after we accidentally helped Umbra forge the Mechanism back together. I guess they are, but Nine is a little more understanding of how the coffee gets made. Though it's not all good news… the whole reason Nine wants to join us is because Umbra has hired a lot of really nasty customers. Still, excited to have you on, Nine!
Peace, love, and Joy!
S.O.T.
Nine: No. 4, 5, and 6. Good to see you three again.
H.R.: Nine? What are you doing here? I thought our work with the Society was done? Like, done-done.
Big Guy: Mm. I figured it wasn't.
Nine: Quite so. Actually, I came to express interest in your "Barista Program," as it were.
Payroll: Huh? You want to work with us as a Barista?
Nine: I qualify by all accounts, I assure you. It is open to employees of a Third Cafe or equivalent, right?
Payroll: Even if it wasn't, we'd make an exception for you.
Big Guy: Your qualifications are not in question. Why work for us? What do we have that your Society does not?
Nine: The Dark. They are your primary antagonist, correct? I don't want to get the Society any more involved with the Dark than they must be. Plus, Joes—William, he hates you all. However… the Dark has officially hired one of our—one of my—primary antagonists. Zehhurozzm. I did try to warn you not to reconstruct the Mechanism, though I suppose you didn't do it intentionally. If what I will say later is true, Zeh will use the Mechanism to grow his infernal collection and things will, well, get out of hand rather fast.
Manager: Zeh. Right. Blast it all—they've got him officially now?
Nine: Seems like it. They need skilled hands to collect what the Mechanism is able to find. They've also brought on two other members.
Manager: How do you know that? We're never able to tell who's in or out of the Dark.
Nine: I have plenty of bookmarks placed around.
H.R.: Do you know who the other two are?
Nine: Herbet White and Zahhak.
Payroll: Herbet White… why does that name sound so familiar?
Manager: Bloody hell. The Peddler of the Bizarre. A good quarter of my personal collection was sourced from him.
H.R.: And Zahhak?
Big Guy: Evil incarnate.
Nine: Yes. Neither case is good, I'm afraid. Worse, if my notes are correct, their first target of the Mechanism will be their third new hire.
Manager: Right. Well, are you sure you want to help us out? I mean, we could certainly use the help, especially with Zeh bein' with the Dark and all. But we know you've got your Society to run and all.
Nine: Of course! The Society… it's important to me, yes. But in my heart, I'm always a sucker for a cup of coffee.
