First impression: "Beware of The Blob! It creeps and seeps across the floor. It's always looking for something more to eat. It creeps and seeps across the floor, looking for you!"
"The black goo was the last thing on her mind, and she didn’t even remember she had forgotten it, by morning."
Ooh, that's not portentous at all. Especially with Benny's reaction. (If you haven't yet, check out "The Antimemetics Division" on the SCP wiki. Free fiction so good I bought the book.)
“You may speak freely. Miss Brandt has not yet been sworn in, but she perceives more, ah... clearly than most.”
Hints at a wider world and deeper history. Chloe may be involved in this for life - however long that may end up being. Or perhaps even longer.

It's interesting that she forgot it.
Yes it is ;)
Will Mr Cruor remember that she'd left the voicemail? Or will something magically go wrong with that as well?
And it's "interesting" that I forgot about this prologue until I started "putting together" my doc on Deadhead. [Crazy Grin]
Oh, hooray! I love the Groundskeeper series. And there are so many interesting hints/clues in this chapter!
