Alright… I think everything will, eventually, work out. The Manager seems genuinely sorry for what happened during Perez’s service. And I have a feeling that we’ll see the Big Guy again. And! H.R. is getting pretty handy with my old Tarot Deck. I know that things got off to a rocky start… but if it was going to be easy, it wouldn’t have been worth doing, or whatever he used to say. “Half success” was the other thing he always managed to bring up, and I think I’m starting to get what he always meant by that.
Looking back, we did a hell of a lot of work this past month or so. We… well, half success, we confirmed the destruction of the Everebon Locket. We also confirmed the presence of a rival coffee chain, the Dark, led by Umbra, Aka, and Pleasant. And, another half success, we stopped Pleasant from sinking the Keys… even if he was allegedly not going to sink them anyway. And… well, I’d struggle to call Perez’s service anything but a horrible failure, but we did rid the Keys of Perez. And it wasn’t one of those little chichi glittery Perezs either; it was actually a fairly menacing one. So… a quarter success or something like that.
And despite the momentary pain that Perez’s service caused, I think our Cafe is stronger for it. The Manager has been up all night researching who the Dark may have recruited. He’s got that fire in him again that I love to see. It’s way better than him moping around and drinking all day. Doubt I can get him to switch from absinthe to just coffee… but it’s a start. A lotta things are just a start, and that’s what we need to remember. Sure, Big Guy and I have done this kinda thing before, but this is something new for H.R. and the Manager. We’ll figure it out. I mean, if those kids at the Third Cafe can do it, so can we, right?
