I understand that this account may be largely... discounted. I'm actually fine with that. I know the truth of it, and the octopuses do too.

And now, here I was. With this impossible choice to make. Either way, it was the end for me.

YOU ARE AT THE CENTER OF ALL OF THIS, SIZZLE, WELL-INTENTIONED OR NOT. IF NOT FOR YOU, WE WOULDN'T BE IN THIS PREDICAMENT...

I KNOW. THIS IS A LOT TO DIGEST IN ONE SITTING. BUT YOU NEED TO KNOW.      YOU ARE AWARE OF YOUR OWN INFINITE DIMENSIONS. YOU ARE...

THERE ARE SIGNS, IF YOU KNOW HOW TO SEE THEM, IN TIME ITSELF. TIME SEEMS TO FOLD IN ON ITSELF MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY THE NEARER I GET...

My name is Schneez! Very good. Wait, did you say sneeze? No, Schneez, with a shhh. Oh, ok Snotrocket, this is how this is going to work...

I'm not even entirely sure if I'm doing the right thing in telling you. He did say I shouldn't tell anyone. But... I have to.

There are times (far too many times) when I just don't have a clue. I get the look. Like I'm supposed to know something.

I've never told anyone this. I'm not even sure why I'm coming out in this way. But I feel I need to get it out in the open...
