Not Illuminated (Yet)

"No thanks," you tell him. You figure that your imagination is certainly no worse than the reality of what surrounds you, since your mind is rather numb, anyhow.

"Suit yourself," he responds, "but seems kind of unfair that I can see, and you can't. Or can you?"

You squint and try to make out your hand in front of your face. At first, you don't notice a thing, but the general form of four fingers and a thumb soon manifests, much to your amazement. Something seems wrong with the proportions, though; the fingers are all roughly the same length, while the thumb is too far away from them. Also, your fingernails look unkempt, especially the thumbnail. You could poke out an eye with it!

"I thought so for a minute," you say, "but I guess not."

You raise your thumb to your mouth to bite off any excess nail, but a tuft of hair comes off on your tongue and distracts you. Blecch!
