“The delivery note I attached to the boxes of Cress’s legendary new Unfortunate Mudslide Cupcakes is a replica of this one.” Violet read the note that said: I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND YOUR DECISION TO DECLINE TO BE INTERVIEWED BY US AT THE FAIRY POST DUE TO YOUR BUSY SCHEDULES, AND I EMPATHIZE WITH HOW YOU MUST BE SO BACKED UP THESE DAYS. IN THESE SORTS OF SITUATIONS, I FIND CUPCAKES HELP. SINCERELY, SECRETARY OF DOOM.
