Mailbox delivery

At some point while Tim is out a letter is hand delivered into his apartment's mailbox. There's no return address and it clearly hasn't been postmarked. Inside are just two things, a business card and a note on a piece of scrap paper that just says "She's human". It isn't signed, though there's also been no effort made to disguise handwriting if Tim has seen it before.

Tim finds the card and the note. It's true that any number of people could have left it at this point, but there is one man who often leaves him anonymous gifts from time to time. "Alright, Jon. I get it." It doesn't look like Jon's handwriting, but Tim assumes it's a poor way to try and disguise himself.

He doesn't respond to the card right away, but he doesn't throw it away either. In fact he keeps it in his wallet and tries not to think too much about it. That is until after a long day of getting nowhere with his contract changes with Charlotte and another dead end with the cursed dildo he's been chasing after. Sitting at home quietly with his beer he takes out the card. Spinning it over and over again in his hand. Thinking quietly to himself before going to bed.

In the morning he gets up, has breakfast, goes to work, has a normal day, and then on his lunch break: he makes a call.
