Right. I was already thinking it before that note in the lobby, but... With everything we've found from the "staff", the only thing that makes sense is if we aren't the first time this hotel had "guests" like this.
Maybe not the first time, but the note also implied that they are still here.
... the second letter I mentioned. The way it was addressed to me was odd. Very formally, and with a Japanese honorific. No one who's dead talks to me like that.
Even when I talked to Harrowhark about what I thought, she seemed convinced the same Aquila who's here is the one who wrote the notes. I don't know that one enough to say for sure, but-- it makes a lot more sense that all eight of them are... the understudies.
[ he started using an acting metaphor and now he's stuck with it ]
... it's not too surprising. They are doing their best to act like these other people, so if that is the only thing you have to go by, you aren't going to notice anything off.
[ a pause. ]
Something that Dimitri found in Aquarius' room implies the other person might have been someone from our camp. There is no way to convince him otherwise now.

And then a second one, that was them hoping they could speak to me more directly instead of just in a letter.

[ but, hmm ]
I wish they could too, but I'm glad they managed letters at all.

... You think whoever they are, they're with the dead but aren't from our group?

It would make sense for why we have not run into anyone on our end.

[ TIREDLY!!! but; ]

no subject
Maybe. I do not have any proof though, so it's just a feeling.
