I've done surveys, tests and [[experiments]]. I've built myself from [[scratch]]. \nRecoded all my errors.

In Code

over\nand \nover\n\n[[<- back|skin]]

This is where things get complicated. Sometimes you have a typo or an [[error]].

I once cut off my little toe and didn't realise there was anything wrong for an hour.\n\n[[<- back|error]]

Scratch at the skin and you'll find it. I am code, with no errors. Safe in 0s and 1s.

I used to have an art project where I would try to create the most interesting bruises. Each blossom of blood under [[skin]] was a unique bloom which I photograph. \n\nPeople think I am a freak, that my code is wrong.\n\nSo I'm recoding. I'm building [[myself]] again.

I don't feel pain from [[cuts]] or [[bruises]]. Only [[people|peeps]].\nIt'm not safe. Pain stops you from doing dangerous things.

I hear they hurt the most. \n\n[[<- back|error]]

.passage {\ncolor:#FFFFAC;}\n.passage a {\ncolor:#E65C00;}\n\n#sidebar {\ncolor: #FFFFAC;}

You are code. Scratch at the [[skin]] and you'll find it.

I know how I am most likely to respond in over 400 situations. \nI know my 1000 most used words.\nI know the pitch I laugh at.\n\n[[<- back|myself]]\n

from bruises\ncuts\nand \n[[people]].

Cells always [[dividing]].\nHunger always [[growing]].\nPain waiting to be [[triggered]].\n\n

until you silence it with food.\n\n[[<- back|skin]]
