Hi Candyman!

You’re probably wondering: who’s Candyman? It’s you. For reasons that will become clear as I continue to say words, to you.

Remember when I assigned your team to work on the cheeky little candy flavors with supernatural properties? Candy! Of all things. I feel like I’m SIX YEARS OLD. Well, you’ve probably noticed that sour has seeped into the ecosystem around here. Well, I say we might as well embrace it! We want you to infuse bugs with candy power.

We need to know just how super charged a bug can get. It’s obvious 2 and 2 make 4 type research. I don’t need to explain why we’re supercharging bugs with candy powers. You get it.

I’ll let you sync up with Pumpkin (a human being) at the O.G.R.R. labs. You should be working together on this. I genuinely believe we can make bugs even more terrifying!

Much love, Sloane.

Dear [scratched out], I've been watching you for a while. TOO CREEPY

Hey [scratched out], you don't know me, but I think we have lots in common. We have a darkness— COULD READ WRONG

[scratched out], I'll say it straight, you inspire me. You're bold, and cool, and you know what's wrong with the world.

You're what's wrong with me. EW, GET OUT

Look [scratched out], leave those three weirdos in the dust. Together, we can fix everything. MAYBE?

Employee ID 189 (Sick Leave)


ID 426: So... Operation Traffic Light was a bust. Think, people! If we keep messing up, we'll never solve this before the other strike teams. I'm not letting 427 figure this out first.

ID 884: Perhaps we should not assume insects can only perceive fast-moving objects?

ID 141: But, the data doesn't lie! All our research shows insects see things at a different speed than mammals. It's settled science.

ID 884: Evidently this is not consistent across the spatial displacement spectrum, judging by our colleague's emergency visit to the hospital.

ID 426: What did you tell the EMT by the way?

ID 112: Tiger attack.

ID 426: Wow.

Men down! These poor fellows fell victim to the unrelenting heat of the fire pit.
