❦ 4th Record

[As he writes, drops of water drip onto the page; most fall on blank paper, but a few fall on the letters and blur them a little. It's just water, really.]

I was already pretty wet from the rain, but now I'm soaked...

I assume that people already know about the large pink octopus in the lake--it's too big and [pause] friendly for it to have lived there for long without someone seeing it--and that it isn't dangerous, since I'm still alive.

Is there any way I can stop it from dragging me underwater again, other than just staying away from the lake?
