[Flynn would actually prefer to keep this text only but his disdain for touchscreen applications and his love for talking out loud get in the way, as per usual.]

So I hope everybody is doing okay, in a more or less okayish manner or some variety thereof. We had a bit of a difficult time lately with the memory twists and confusion and, you know, usual side dish of general horribleness going around. I'm just gonna assume that the demand for distraction is high and I am happy to announce that there have been some new additions to the library, especially our somewhat scarce fiction section.

Hello to all our newcomers, too. You have already received the important guides and information at this point, I'm sure. For those of you I haven't had a chance to speak with yet, my name is Flynn Carsen and I'd like to add some of the more leisure-oriented material to your reading list – but please, put a particular emphasis on your immediate survival, thank you.

As you will soon realize the evenings after lockdown can get long and tedious and there is not much going around in terms of entertainment, so: There is a joint effort to compile an e-library of reading material people have found during their travels or have brought with them into the city.

[He switches to text at this point, if only for convenience's sake.]

You can access the current collection here.

Among our newest additions are:
  • A story about a seagull. Very post-modern, very disjointed symbolism. For fans of Ulysses, House of Leaves and Dadaism, not necessarily in that order.
  • A novel about two rivals, seeking the fountain of youth to claim immortality and infamy. Predictable but fun.
  • A story about a haunted house coming alive. Might hit a little close to home in this deathtrap of a city but the writing's of decent quality. Don't read when you're traveling alone.
  • A bunch of manuscripts from an unknown Norfinbury author. Particularly happy about this one. There's even some screenplays in the mix. Some are already up, more will be added over the next couple of days.
  • A billiard magazine. Lots of pictures. A little depressing, the rooms are very nice. Good for a cry if you miss spacious lounges, velvet couches, scotch tumblers or being rich.

I'm also happy to announce an original tale by our very own Hans Christian Andersen about a
[cannibalistic animal murder mystery] badger.

As per usual, stay safe and warm and and try not to die.

Everyone keeps asking if I'm alright.

['Everyone' meaning Flynn and Steph, after Stephen blew up at Mycroft for plotting his murder.]

I just wanted old Big Brother to understand that he doesn't get to pull people's strings here. Not like that. If he hadn't tried to hush me up the second I responded --

[That had pissed him off as much as any of it.]

Like that, yeah. Makes me wonder how much he got away with back home.

Doubt it'll do much, but it felt good.

We can't let this place turn us into that kind of people. This place is terrible, but we don't need to help it.

Yeah. Yeah, I know. I don't think there's any reason for anyone to come after me right now, but I know.

[That's a lie. He'd be really surprised if House wasn't still pissy about the Vicodin. He just doesn't want to involve Flynn in that.]

Seriously. I don't think it's so much to ask.

I'll take whatever luck I can get.

Listen, you enjoy He Came by Night, alright? You deserve a break as much as the rest of us.

[He even manages to say it without laughing.]

A book report.

I'm a tough grader. You'll have to work for it. Really delve into that lunar symbolism.
