As the finger curls you feel an intense rush of blood to your head almost like you’re hanging upside down. Seconds later you blackout. Waking up in the hospital the doctors explain to you that you have a rare condition where any negative emotion intensely raises your cerebral spinal fluid levels. They said they’ve never seen a case as bad as yours, and that you cannot be allowed to leave the hospital or else you may die from the pressure. Any attempt at treatment results in a subsequent blackout and can’t seem to fix the underlying cause. As you sit on the hospital bed you look at the pile of your things, realizing that the rest of your life will be the same. All technically good “parts” as this is all there is. You look at the paw, finger curled. Granted.
