Toby nodded simply out of encouragement, though his expression was full of worry. "I-I appreciate the support, Ed, don't get me wrong. These guys are crazy tough, though. Four armies' worth of unkillable demons is a lot to take on, even if we do manage to gather a decent fighting force of our own. Are you sure you're up for the challenge?"
He cast Chrys an awkward expression. He had no doubt that she had the means and the tools for the job. Ed, though...?

Chrys nodded happily.

He could not hold back his pout. "...no... I really want to though! I would love to have super powers, then I could more easily help you guys!"

Toby gave Ed a sad smile. "Well... I'm sure there's a place for you in our team. We're gonna need plenty of faithful fighters, after all. Maybe you..." He then looked to Chrys again with an anxious look in his eye that begged her to help him come up with an idea.

"Can keep the normal folks out of the loop? We could use some one keeping everything kinda under wraps for the island's safety," Chrys offered.

Ed cocked his head. "Under Wraps?"

"Y-Yeah! Like..." Toby awkwardly picked up for Chrys. "Like making sure the Præt'nos don't hurt bystanders and... that word of this doesn't spread through the general public. If everyone knew what was going on, we'd have widespread panic and might even encourage the Præt'nos to mobilize more quickly."

"Can we trust you with this mission,Ed?" Chrys asked in a semi-serious tone.

Ed gave a quick salute. "I'll make sure everyone knows that this isn't a big deal," he smiled.

"Heheh... Thanks, buddy," Toby chuckled, tipping his cup to Ed before taking a drink. "In the meantime, Chrys, I'd say it's definitely worth the effort putting up some defensive spells wherever we can."

Chrys nodded. "Thank you Ed. And Toby. That sounds like a great idea," she offered as she sipped more of her drink.

The public can't know that these demons are here, Ed thought, a serious expression on his face. "Hey Ed! You want to help get some of this stuff out?" A person in the back called.
Ed got up. "See you guys later, okay?" he smiled, then paused. "...is there a way I can contact you?"

"Cool." Toby smiled and gave Chrys two thumbs up. Then he looked up as Ed prepared to head back to work. "Oh, sure! Hold on..."
He quickly pulled out a pen and scrawled his phone number on the back of his receipt. After mulling it over for a bit, he also included his chumhandle, considering how frequently he and his roommates had been using Pesterchum lately. He then handed it to Ed. "Here. I have my phone on me all the time. Thanks again, man."

Chrys soon offered her own number to Ed. "Though I am usually with Toby, I do have some training I do in the earlier hours of the morning and a job," she offered holding out a napkin for him with the number on it.

Ed took the pair of numbers, smiling. "I'll see if I can't get me a phone next," he cheered, heading back to work. Ed vanished into the back, his chances of coming back out now slim.
