The coffee shop is a small, single-story building bordered on three sides by a chain link fence. A used car lot is on the other side of the fence. Inside the shop is a single table with four seats. There isn't enough room for any more. The barista is an unshaven young punk rocker, with a purple mohawk and a tee shirt from an obscure death metal/punk fusion band called "Soul Jar." He's wearing a sticker on his chest, with the words "Hello! My name is:" printed on it. The name "Earl" has been smeared like finger paint on the name tag. The group watches Earl serve a few customers, who all quickly leave with their coffee, showing no signs of wanting to sit at the table. At this time, Runners should describe how they arrived at the shop. The place has a parking lot just barely big enough to accommodate the Runners' vehicles.When Earl notices the group assembling at his shop, he moves over to the doorway. "Alek sent you, right?" he says in with an affected gravelly "rock star front man" tone. He flips a switch, and the sign outside changes from OPEN to CLOSED. He turns the light down a bit, and the reactive glass in the windows becomes nearly opaque from the outside. The Runners can see out just fine, straight to the north side of the CTI campus, and the elaborate hedging all the runners discovered last night. "He paid for an hour. Whether you freaks are done or not-" he glances appreciatively at Casper, and winks "-the store's back open at 2 oclock." Earl closes the door behind him as he leaves. For a moment, there's an awkward, uncomfortable feeling that comes with being in strange company, until the shop's menu screen flickers off, and Poseidon's icon appears. "Don't mind me," Aleksander says. "In fact, just pretend I'm not even here until you need me. I just want to see how the planning goes."</blockquote>
