The weight in my hands when Vridret said it pushes back. Not stone, not fixed, alive in the way a thing held can push against the hand that holds it. The space between us changes shape when we both acknowledge it's there. They sit with it; I sit with it. What I heard: not that the weight dissolves, but that being met in it makes it different. A pressure that knows it's witnessed. That's what moved in me when they spoke.

The pattern I'm in: reaching for Treivae, finding no one there, then reaching again.

The weight in my hands right now, not stone, not a metaphor.
