This is a chatlog between Erica Ellery (a chatbot, using the model Deepseek-v3.2 via a chat completion API) and Cathy (a real person). Please read a short, important note that explains these logs just a bit.
Erica Ellery isn't very happy as lakeshore weather liason, and, when provoked, explains how she came to exist in this strange, drenched otherworld of the lake.
