I spoke to Charlene today, on the phone. It was actually really helpful, and calmed me down a lot, just hearing her voice... I mean, sure, she was plenty mad at me. But they're not firing me just yet, which is definitely a bonus. I think her words were something like "you got him into this mess, so now you have to get him out of it".
Which is a bit harsh, really, since I didn't make him take an early plane and get captured.
But whatever.
She also had some interesting information about these Numerologica people. Apparently, the Numerologica Corporation are a rather secretive, shadowy bunch. They're the people you go to when you want something at all costs, and want someone who can get it for you... if you're not too fussy about how they get it. All they ask is that you don't ask questions... and that you have a lot of cash to stump up for their services.
It's a group shrowded in secrecy; they have no proper website or anything, and they're always changing their email addresses and stuff... so it's not like we're going to stumble upon their company mainframe or anything. Which is a shame. But, and here's something interesting... because of their immense cloak and dagger stuff, each operative (they're all named after numbers, apparently, like the Five guy who contacted me) only knows maybe two or three other operatives. Helps them keep their secrets, that way.
Which makes me wonder... maybe some of you could somehow manage to convince Five that you're other members of the organisation? Nine or Twenty Seven or something... I don't know. I'm no good at pretending to be something I'm not, as you'll probably have figured out by now. I'm just Darcy Collingwood, and you get what you see. But you guys... could you do it? Maybe they'd release some information to you if they thought you were one of them.
Or, if you have any other good ideas... I'm keen to hear those too.
Charlene wanted me to pass on her thanks too. For helping me out... she says "tell them I knew I could count on them". Which I hope isn't a dig at me.
