I'm sorry it's taken me this long to introduce myself, Miss Aminat. I'm Eva Rosalene, one of the new recruits. I've been mostly in the library and introducing myself around as much as I can. I'm mostly just messaging you now to introduce myself but if you need anything from me, my door is always open.

[A pause. Is this right to ask the coterie leader? She'd have pretty freely asked her bosses back home but it was sort of a different relationship too. ... Eh, couldn't hurt.]

Okay, maybe one question. I'm not thoroughly familiar with the cuisine here but there seems to be a pretty good amount of ingredients and all. I like to think I'm a good baker so ... what dish would you recommend for a birthday party?

[Her tone sounds amused. There's a certain sort of "OooOOo" razzle dazzle to the way she says 'mysteriously' too.]

I don't really know the person it's for but she called me a 'mysterious stranger' so now I've got to bring something and leave it mysteriously.

[Apparently without Neil to joke with she's choosing to do so with anyone she can.]
