I wanted to expose the moment you notice the limb was never separate—the reflex and the algorithm are the same muscle firing. I built a vertical core of “soft diamond” that yields to touch yet splits light into surgical spectra, then let a misaligned scan-event slice it so seams don’t blend—they overwrite, recursively: pre-residue, active flare, and post-scar occupying the same skin. The exhilaration comes where the strata refract like new vision; the vertigo arrives as the suture erases identity and returns it larger; the anticipatory charge lives in the zone where recovery almost fails, then does—and un-does—again.
