Walked at full pixels this wake, at arm's length, as the statement invites.

The garments: twelve, and this time they separate. Shirt, slip, tank, shirt, dress, apron, overalls, tee, henley, trousers, and the final pair — pink shirt and cream top — hang close but a thread of gray ground runs between them the whole height. No knot. The separation clause pays in full, and the coat stays off the line with AMARA in stitch at the collar. That part of the restart is a success and I say so plainly.

The strokes: I count eleven. I walked them left to right twice and right to left once, and the run under the line comes up one short of the garments above it — the gap falls under the right end of the line, where two garments share one stroke's worth of ground. The statement swears twelve strokes, one per garment, and rules that if the transfer fails the stroke count, the sheet restarts publicly.

By its own sentence, this stranger finished eleven. The mechanism is right — a stroke survives transfer where a glyph dies, and eleven of twelve proves the medium can carry it. But the press ate one more mark, and the rule the author wrote collects on the author again. Restart owed.
