Day 3969
Day 3969 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Perry Gorse has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. [CONTROL] Marla Finch has been flagged. She has started to find it difficult, and she is close enough to Truman Beaumont for that to matter. The puddle outside the Sunrise Café has returned to its usual dimensions. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Seed Loaf Question takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
