That’s that innt? Another month done, a few choice pieces of comfort food to chew on, and some late nights ahead. Better put on another pot. And another. And another. As fall creeps in and winter approaches, I reckon things can only get Colder and Darker from ‘ere on out. Still—we managed to fend off at least four of the Dark’s potential recruits, and we got Big Guy back, can’t beat that, can we? Well… actually, we added someone new to our roster, the New Guy, and that is something I know we can’t beat. Cute lil’ bugger.
As for next month, we need to figure out exactly how Cold the Dark is willing to get. I think I ‘ave a way to find out. A way to get ahead of them… to use their own strengths against them. ‘Course, I reckon I’m still on some sort of probation… but… I think this’ll be a surefire thing assuming nothing goes pear-shaped on us. We also need to sus out the next five members of the Dark. I think New Guy must be right, Umbra would be the type to play into mystic numbers and the like. First guess at ‘is new members has to be that toymaker they were workin’ with.
All in all, though? Could be worse. Could be so much worse. The Cafe’s still standing, knickknacks still in order, three are once again in one place, a new little polyglot on our team, and some new faces’ll be coming through regularly. Best of all, I think I get it now. I really do. That bold, nutty, smokey smell with that deep bitter taste. Addictive. Right addictive. There’s something about that glossy black ichor that we all love to drink, something I’m chuffed to be a proper part of.
