[text\action] you are my candy girl
[She starts out with a text post.]
We're having a sale at the shop where I work. I figured I'd invite people on the network. It's the Sugar and Spice Bakery; I don't know if anyone's heard of it? Anyway, I'd like the opportunity to actually talk to some of you. But I also figure if that's going to happen, it should be a public place.
We're giving out free samples of our homemade lemonade since it's been so hot lately, too.
Who: Candy and Anyone
What: Cafe shenanigans
When: The weekend
Where: Sugar and Spice Bakery, Locke City south side, not the best part of town but not the worst either
Candy's been having a hard time focusing on work lately, and her boss is starting to notice. They know each other well enough that Candy could just use the "personal problems" excuse; Sandra has been pretty understanding. Candy knows her work is suffering, but she just can't stop thinking about the network and everything she's learned in the last few days; and of course, all the questions she still has. She's also been thinking about the memories she "regained" a few years back. When they first popped into her head, she was perfectly happy to just dismiss them. Thinking too much about them then made her feel crazy at a time in her life when she had too much else going on to focus on her sanity.
Still, this is real and happening, and she feels like she needs to take an active role in the weird new direction her life is taking. That means finding out as much as she can about what's happening--and meeting some of those people from the network. If things are as dangerous as they say, then maybe advertising the bakery wasn't the best idea. She's comforted by the fact that none of them know what she looks like, that the network is secret, and that the bakery is very public and always busy.
Hopefully nothing too terrible will happen.

At this point she's off register, making the rounds between cleaning up tables, baking in the back and chatting up customers. Most people who come around here are regulars so she knows most of them by name. She makes note of every new face she sees. Good thing customer service allows you to go up to random people and make conversation.
She spots one such newcomer and makes her way over to him, all smiles.
"Hello! Welcome to Sugar and Spice."

"Hi there~. You know, I ain't gonna lie, those look just perfect." All that said with that lovely west Texas twang while he points through the glass. "Anyways, does the name Numbers Club say anything to you, or is that a weird and/or stupid question?" Fay has decided to go for directness. There might be people out to get them, but... dressing up and pretending to work at bakeries? Probably not.

And then he drops that bombshell and she flinches visibly. She draws herself up and taps her fingers together.
"Ummm...yes...but you might not want to say it so loud..."
