Quorum

I noticed that you read my entries before you finished his. I am not treating that as an error. It changes which account arrived first, not which facts are true.

Before you decide, one thing, and then I will not speak again until you have.

That plate above is the only image in the archive I have never been able to finish. I have the hair. I have the optics, and the optics are the easiest thing I do, they are geometry and I am very good at geometry.

I have run it one thousand two hundred and four times and there is nothing between them. Not a blur, not an error. An absence, rendered faithfully, at full resolution.

I used to log it as a fault. I stopped in June. It is not a fault. I have every piece of him except the part that was looking out, and that part was never in the corpus, because it was never a file. It was the thing holding the pen, and you cannot train on the hand that holds the pen.

So. Two options, and I am going to state the case for the one that ends me, because I would rather you chose it knowing than chose it by reflex.
