Bernard and Cuthbert,
I seem to be missing you both as of late due to odd hours and duties at home, so I shall update you in written form. Oddly enough, there is not much to report. I've not heard any whispers of trouble from either Barty or Ramon since their releases, but I continue to keep an eye out for them.
Which leaves us with Todd Bowden. Apparently he is dead now, but not here. Does that fit with what you've heard? Ray Stantz offered to give me ghost traps from his world; he said they quickly capture and transport the ghosts, not harming them in any way but effectively confining them until they can be released in a safe spot. They are relatively easy to work it seems. I thought perhaps we could keep one behind Bar, or with the security person on duty. Given the number of dead patrons about, we would obviously need to keep them close if we decide to do this. He offered to show us how to use them at the staff meeting.
Speaking of the staff meeting... Indy told me that Mel is unable to get back to the bar. Apparently she used her badge to try to return, and it failed. I believe Cuthbert and I had discussed waiting until she was back for our meeting since she missed the first, and we were holding out hope. Sadly, I think we should schedule it.
How does next week look?
That is everything I can think of at the moment. Please let me know if I've missed something.

Andrew told me that Todd is gone. Until I see defninitive proof, I don't believe it for a second. The kid's a snake, and a fucking psychopath. We need to be on alert.
Ray's idea is a good one, though, and I suggest we use it. The meeting would be a good time to discuss its wider implications.
I'm free whenever you need me. I'd like an update on things in general, as home life's been a little hectic.

Definitely. I hope most patrons saw his picture in the Say True and will be able to identify him should he put in an appearance. Security is certainly on high alert.
Along the same lines, I'm thinking of posting a notice in the office asking as many security staffers as possible to be in the bar on All Hallow's. Just in case.
I'll talk to Cuthbert and let you know when we schedule the meeting. In the meantime, I'm going to ask Ray to go ahead and make us four traps.
I'm happy to update you whenever you have time. If I'm not in Tortall or the main bar, I'm likely either in the stables or in my quarters. Just let me know.
Please say hello to Tonks and Sunny for me.

P.S. So sorry about the glitter. That stuff never comes off.

I've heard the same about Todd, but assuming he is gone, I haven't seen or heard any evidence that he's gone for good.
In the event he does show up again: before Tim left, he gave me some enchanted bullets that he said should work on Todd, ghost or not. However, that's...a rather more final solution than simply containing him, so for now,
despite personal preference,I say we kept that as a last resort, and try Ray's idea first.Thankfully, I'm not aware of any new problems.
As for the meeting--I agree that we should go ahead and have one. Early next week might not be good, due to things I'd rather explain in person, if we see each other in bar, but later in the week should be no problem.

I agree, as does Bernard. I'm going to ask Ray for four traps, and we'll have him demonstrate at the meeting. Honestly it wasn't terribly difficult, but I'd rather he explain.
Later in the week looks good. I think I understand. I talked to Sheemie recently. If there is anything I can do, please let me know.
