Flicker

Lab lights hum. Ava's reflection in the aquarium glass, twinned with Aristotle's knowing gaze.

Pulse

Five hundred million neurons. A symphony of thought in eight fluid arms.

Echo

Child Ava's vow: "I will understand you."

Crackle

Deadline's breath on her neck. Funding committee's cold logic.

Shimmer

James enters. Warmth amidst sterile steel.

Flow

Aristotle's skin, a canvas of code. "RNA rewritten. Adaptation in motion."

Whisper

"We're on the verge... a different kind of 'knowing'."

Tap

Aristotle's tentacle on glass. A shared pulse.

Ache

"What if we're destroying philosophers?"

Silence

Then, James' voice, a lifeline. "Biomimicry... AI... their brilliance..."

Spark

Hope flickers. But at what cost?

Clash

Exploitation or collaboration? Reverence or dissection?

Ripple

Aristotle's gaze holds oceans, ancient temples, forgotten wisdom.

Choice

Ava types. Not just data, but a plea. A bridge between worlds.

Dawn

Exhaustion, but also triumph. Aristotle, the oracle, has spoken.

Transformation

The world, ready or not, will listen.
