Notes:

The first of a handful of Pesterlog one-shots I plan on uploading and backdating, courtesy of my (much) younger self.

Please, for your sanity and mine, put yourself in the headspace of a fourteen year old writing this in 2018. And if that sounds like the actual textbook definition of hell to you, well. Welcome! Take a seat, settle in. You're in the right place.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)
