Day 4735
Day 4735 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Iris Brody has finally had everyone round. Nobody left early. Cole Whitlow has got good enough at keeping a notebook about the pond to be quietly smug about it. Ewan Callahan has arrived at the store without the list. This has happened before. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Shortcut takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
