Because I know this will be devastating to many of you: the local coffee shop down the street is turning into a Starbucks.

[KNOWLEDGE DEPARTMENT]

For those new to the Department, I hope you're settling in well. A reminder that I'm available if you should have any questions, and also that the lounge conversation pit is deceptively deep. We'll get an outing scheduled for the lot of us soon, I'm open to suggestions.

I'd also like to gage your interest about this Department and Society hosting a symposium or conference. The breadth of knowledge and discovery shared here should not be contained. I think it could be an opportunity for Quest to start holding an annual one, with the different satellite societies taking turns to host. It will draw more experts and those enthusiastic about Adventuring, while also giving eachother an opportunity to share and improve, maybe even develop professionally.

[DEPARTMENT HEADS]

Are you getting an increasing number of reporters trying to reach out to you about "that terrible business"? They're like vultures.

Maybe, but sometimes you just have to do what feels right, even if you're young. [...] Weird to think about being 25. But yeah, an impressive amount of restraint.

It's one of the things I like most about you.

It feels a lifetime ago, yeah.

First you compliment my sweatervest and now this? What's one of the other things?

It does. That's around when I met Keda.

You're kind of an asshole.

She's promised me photos of you young. I'm looking forward to the mullet but I don't expect the way you looked at her has changed much, you sap.

You like that I'm kind of an asshole?

No mullet, unfortunately for you. Very baby-faced, though, which I'm sure you'll get a kick out of. And shut up.

Yeah, means I don't have to fuss about being nice to you.

I won't, it's one of your favourite things about me.

Wow. I really am treated so well by you Hemmings. Incredible.

Fuck, really shot myself in the foot saying that.

We do our best. You're welcome.

You did. It was a fatal mistake you won't live down, and I'm so grateful for this opportunity to remind you at every opportunity.

Next time, I'll drink the champagne left in my fridge all by myself.

Impressed you can be even more annoying than you already are.

You'd steal Bracken's alcohol? Can't believe you. [...] How long were they in there, by the way?

I exceed expectations.

It's my fridge. And a week or so, that's at least when he told me not to drink them. They could have been there longer.

Do you not look in your fridge ever?

In an absent sense, but not often. But in my defense since Bracken, I don't really need to.
