Blake Preston
"Her blogging and youtubeing are very nice, I sometimes watch a video now and then. She's a little angry though, maybe she's frustrated? I will have to talk to her about it and see how she feels, maybe she needs a partner."
Hmmmm... Why not her roommate Eve? Yes, yes, she's a demon, I know, but she seems like a nice girl and she
is French. I will talk to Blake and then maybe put a word in Eve's ear.
Daniel Belson
"Daniel and Ehtan, poor boys. Have they resolved their ‘confusion’ about the girl yet?”
Ethan helps Daniel, I believe, and the both of them help Aila.
Alistair Queen
"Ah, Alistair. He works hard and plays hard and who is to judge? The little girl, she has been a good influence on him, I think, and I imagine that another constant in his life might not go amiss either."
But who? Well, he seems fond of Loki but I'm not sure that he is a positive influence. If I am not mistaken and I rarely am, he and Nikita have done the deed once or twice but feel no particular fondness for each other. One to think about.
Mariska Costas
"Mariska seems to follow my own heart, the heart of hopeless romantic. Perhaps she would get on well with Elsie? Hmmm... I will talk them both."
Nymphs, what beautiful creatures! I remember other times when their songs were not such rarities. But that was yesteryear, we must concern ourselves with the now.
Nikita Yankovsky
”Apathy can be a sexy quality, ask all those mopey teenage pop-stars. It is not a healthy though and leads nowhere pleasant.“
I have no doubt she could be made to feel rather more content with her existence than she currently is but she would need to want it.
Mordred Hame
”I haven’t seen him around here recently, his loss.“
If he wants Uncle Rammie’s help, he’ll need to show his face now and then.
John Taylor
”Ah, John. A tragedy in motion, like a car hurtling towards a wall. I can help many people in many ways but I do not think I can help him, not yet.”
In fact, I think there’s only one way that anyone will be able to help him.
Eve Lumière
”Another citizen of the republic on this dreary little island? Hourra! True, she is a little bit too quick to make friends but I have never been one to judge too harshly. She is always welcome to my little corner of heaven.”
And she is so prolific in her work! Spreading the joy in her way might not get the divine seal of approval but it gets mine.
Catharine Reid
”She used to come in here all the time but I have not seen her in a while. Perhaps she moved?“
A shame, such a nice girl.
Opallum
”Such fire! A very hot individual, as I am want to point out now and then.“
Some demons try to hide their nature from mortals, especially before we ’others’ were outed but not this Ifrit, he’d prefer everyone see him sit in the cold of winter with not a visible sign of discomfort. At least he seems satisfied with his position, otherwise I might have to step in.
Andrew Mordekai
”Merde, I am sweating! I think we must find him a friend before I succumb to temptation!”
True to tell, it will take something more than a beautiful man to make me ‘fall’ but he is still beautiful. Fire in the heart, fire in the soul. I am sure there are many others who would appreciate such a man.
Suriel White
”Sometimes, I think that I am wasting my time with these delicious delicacies, you know? Mostly I feel that way after talking to Suriel. They work so hard and help so many people. I hope they know the work they do is so ”
“Some angels preach or overreach, but some are kind and humble
Forgive and forget they say, no matter the trip or stumble”
Miles Catrose
”Sometimes little people want to take up the whole world, because it’s that or be overlooked. Miles is a good boy who needs to be a little more sure and a little less insecure.”
Pixies are capricious and arrogant but good hearted. I am sure there’s someone around the place who could calm his temper a little. I should talk to him, I need a haircut…
Yukiko Abe
”What is the song, it goes “Heeey, foxy lady!” It’s funny, non?”
Well,
I thought it was funny. Her kind are old and tricksy but not necessarily bad. I am sure she will be careful with her partners.
Mona
”Sad girl, I hope she finds herself. Or at least finds the way forward.”
Ghosts, poor creatures. Humans fear death so much that sometimes they opt out of the natural process, whether they meant to or not. If she comes to the shop, I will see what I can do for her but I’m not sure she will. Some people do not want to move on.
Faron Romane
”Sometimes it’s hard to escape from one’s parent’s shadows, I think. You should meet my parent one day. Or rather, you certainly will, eventually.“
People call him a fool or an idiot and I wonder whether some parts of him believe them. I am glad he has moved out into independence but perhaps he needs someone to build his self confidence.
Nicolas Black
”It is traditional for a Frenchman to object to the police on principle, particularly one with no discretion and a suspicious nose.“
He wishes to do good, I think, and how can I object to that? He has the look of a man with bad things in his past, things that are yet to leave him alone. Unfortunately he’s also one of those people who would rather suffer quietly than find a therapist. I must think on this.
Maggie Spencer-Adyemi
”I had a friend named Fiacre who loved plants very much, a long time ago now. He taught me a few little tips, small things he passed on to me which maybe I should pass on to her.“
Witches are like brandies; some are good, some are bad but they all pack a punch! That said, Maggie seems like she cares about doing the right thing and working hard.
Megumi
”A charming young lady with excellent manners. I find children who shriek and scream for cakes very annoying, none of that from her.”
But then, most children have not been children for as long as her, have they? I am glad she has found Mister Queen, they will be good for each other.
Stefani Roche
”A sweet child but a little moody, non? Ah, teenagers, we all remember those days, non?“
Another young vampire? Sad creatures in many ways, because they age but do not grow, get old but can not mature. I am glad both her and Megumi have found friends and carers though.
Ari Amari
”You know, I don’t like cats very much. They hunt for fun and sleep when they could be working. Why not get a dog? They’re hard workers and don’t kill for enjoyment.“
I did not think there were any Sphinxes left and I can not say I am particularly pleased to be mistaken. Many a stupid traveller was picked from the teeth of a sphinx in the old days. Still, he seems to have turned over a new leaf here. Let us hope it is sincere.
Katharine Haynes
”A charming young lady but I haven’t seen her in my shop recently.“
Does she still live here?
Felix Underwood
”Librarians are important, a society without librarians is just a group of people with no idea where to file things.”
Talking to the dead is… complicated. Some of my fellow angels do not like it, they see it as disturbing those who have earned their rest. And while I see why they might think that, it gives hope to those who can talk to their loved ones. And who am I to stand in the way of that?
Elise Callaghan
”Quiet people, I know I should not resent them but I always feel like they’re ignoring me. Me!”
Sirens, the call on the dark sea that drags you down and down. I had never heard of one that doesn’t sing, until now. One to watch, I believe.
Claire O'Malley
”I don’t know much about her, perhaps she doesn’t know much about herself?“
We’ll see if she drops into the shop at some point.
Barachiel Alexander Eamon
”Working with children is a noble calling. You build tomorrow by crafting the future’s builders.“
Like myself, Barachiel continues to fight the good fight but has put down the flaming sword.
Ethan Cooper
”Ouff! What a beefcake! I wonder if he has a sweet tooth…”
Lives with a demon and a werewolf but knows neither of their natures? He’s either dense or kindly doesn’t pry. Either way, I imagine he is a positive influence on both of them.
Alfie Liau
”My only rival in the field of sweet treats for the people of Edgetoun! I shall have the better of him yet!“
He seems to be a good sort, I hope he continues to enjoy chocolate more than blood.
Astrid Kitchener
”Artists, they work much better when they have little to eat!“
She seems more accepting of ‘others’ than her father, as always seems to be the way. Generations upon generations, each one struggling to try and make the next accept their ideals. She is a hopeful step, however.
Michael Harel
”A handsome man, non? Well be careful what you say about him, he’s my… he’s an old friend.“
Brother, we are more alike now than ever before. I wonder how the one above thinks of us, working down here in the squalor of humanity. I hope he understands why, if he even thinks about us at all.
Aila Atleo
”A lovely girl, she buys her bread from me and laughs at my jokes! And as we all know, that’s all you have to do to make Rammie your friend for ever.“
Her past is fraught and fractured but she seems to be happy here. A job, friends and two almost fathers. Let us hope things stay that way.
Emerson Maddox
”Lawyers, pah! If they are defending you, you’d better hope you paid them more than the prosecution did.“
He seems arrogant and sharp tongued, two qualities I can’t stand. I do hope he comes into the shop one day, so I can find out a little more about him.
Talia Halbrook
”I haven’t seen her around for a while, I wonder how she is.“
Demons, they seem to be everywhere these days.
Loki Van Stenberg
”A handsome man and we all like having those around, do we not? I am not sure he is one half so pretty under the surface.“
In fact, I am certain he is not. Were I forced to guess, I would hazard he lives off others in more ways than drinking blood, probably through theft or other criminal activities. Vampires, too many of them are the monsters from the night to remember those who aren’t.
Freddie Hughes-Jackson
”We all like books but people can give conversation too! I think young Freddie forgets that sometimes.“
A good boy who studies hard and wants nothing more than to be left alone to do his magic, what could be better than that? Of course, I still like making him blush when he comes in for a little treat.
Liam Woodsworth
”Another child with apathy issues, another day.“
Dhampires, yet more victims of the plague of vampirism.
Aiden Phillips
”A pretty boy, he can take my temperature whenever he wants!”
Another vampire, though this one seems a little different to Queen and Stenberg. He has a secret, that much I’m sure of, but I doubt it is a dark one.
Ryan Croft
”Ah, our hard working police commissioner! I’ll stand him a drink of coffee and doughnut whenever he comes this way.”
I think the end may be coming, the reckoning might be on the horizon. And when the rapture comes, I wonder if we will stand together or apart, brother. Justice and vengeance, rarely do they inspire hope.
Eternity Illuria Loveless
”What does she do? Night crawling? I think we are thinking of different things when you say that, mon ami.”
Fae, I cannot say I like them. They are outside of the jurisdiction of Heaven and have no interest in the morality of humanity.
Patrick Kershner
”In every group, there’s the one who’s quiet because they know what happens when they open their mouths, sadly.”
And in every pack, there’s a runt. At least he is now part of two packs, the wolves and the police. And the latter seem a little more ardent in protecting their members.
Nicodem Kaminski
”What a face, what a voice! I’ve clearly got a challenger for Edgetoun’s most attractively exotic older man.”
A vampire that files down his fangs and is accepted by Raguel is more than a curiosity, he is a minor miracle. One to watch indeed.
Anastasia Psomas
”She looks like she certainly needs a good night’s sleep and a healthy meal.”
Phoenixes, tragic beings. They burn on and on, no end in sight and no respite on the horizon.
James Bright
”He doesn’t come over to the shop anymore. A shame, I was considering employing him.”
I hope he finds his killer and his peace, he deserves it.
Name here
”A little strange, non? You don’t feel quite safe near her? There’s a reason for that.”
Were I a younger being, still full of wrath and righteous fury, I would fall upon her with Heaven’s own might. Now… I only hope to steer her prey away from her.
”Kei”
”Happiness is good, whatever the source. It’s net gain for the world, I think.”
Happy fae are not always happy because something good has happened, however.
Zoey Alston
”How many bartenders can Edgetoun possibly need?”
And how many witches? I hope there’s not some sort of occult or alcoholic conspiracy going.
