+
+### 1. STRENGTHS TO PRESERVE
+*   **Distinct Character Rhythms:** Dorian’s dialogue perfectly mirrors his "clinical mask" with polysyllabic, detached phrasing. Mira’s dialogue is percussive and grounded in the immediate physical reality. 
+    *   *Example:* "The evidence suggests, Mira, that a phased integration is the only statistically viable path to institutional stability..." vs. "They’re already trading contraband and trying to figure out how to make grey-fire in the kitchens."
+*   **Sensory Tension:** The use of "somatic resonance" as a physical manifestation of their emotional state is excellent.
+    *   *Example:* "I call it reality. You’ve spent so long hiding behind your 'lattices' and your 'equations' that you’ve forgotten magic is supposed to breathe."
+*   **The "Climax" Beat:** The transition from the "bone-still" shock to the "wreck" of a kiss feels earned by the preceding fourteen chapters of friction.
+*   **Voice Signatures:** 
+    *   **Mira:** YES. Her dialogue is filled with active verbs and colloquial frustrations ("Past and rot," "Stars' sake").
+    *   **Dorian:** YES. His use of "statistically viable," "categorical error," and "suboptimal" makes his lines unmistakable.
+
+### 2. MUST-FIX — CONTINUITY
+*   **The Right Hand:** In the Character State (ch-15), it is noted that Dorian's right hand is "fully restored." However, in the text, it says: "the grey light catching the silver scarring on his restored hand." 
+    *   *Correction:* If it is "fully restored," there should be no "silver scarring" unless that scarring is a magical artifact of the restoration itself. If the intention is that he is healed but changed, this is fine; if "fully restored" means "like it never happened," remove the mention of scarring.
+*   **The Grey Era:** The RAG world state notes the Starfall has stabilized into a "mercury-grey aurora." The text mentions "The Starfall nebula swirled above, a silent, beautiful ghost..."
+    *   *Correction:* Ensure the description of the nebula doesn't imply it is gone/dead ("ghost"). It is an active, permanent weather pattern now. Suggest changing "ghost of the disaster" to "remnant of the disaster."
+
+### 3. MUST-FIX — CLARITY
+*   **The "Frozen Drain" Metaphor:** 
+    *   *Original:* "The argument had been circling the same frozen drain for three hours..."
+    *   *Issue:* A drain implies a downward spiral/exit; "frozen" implies stasis. While the contradiction is poetic, it’s logically muddy for the opening sentence.
+    *   *Fix:* "The argument had been circling the same icy rut for three hours..." or "The argument had been trapped in the same frozen eddy for three hours..."
+*   **Somatic Bleed Logistics:** 
+    *   *Original:* "The somatic bleed was a roar now. She felt his hunger—a deep, archival ache..."
+    *   *Issue:* We need to be clear if this is a telepathic communion or just high-intensity empathy. Given Ch13/15 RAG, it's "Somatic Equilibrium." 
+    *   *Fix:* Briefly ground the "roar" in a physical sensation (heat/cold/vibration) before jumping to the abstract "archival ache."
+
+### 4. OPTIONAL SUGGESTIONS
+*   **Word Economy (Dialogue Tags):**
+    *   *Original:* "...Dorian said, his voice a cool, rhythmic drone that felt like a needle under her fingernails."
+    *   *Suggested:* "...Dorian’s voice was a cool, rhythmic drone, a needle under her fingernails."
+    *   *Rationale:* Cutting "said" and the "felt like" makes the sensory comparison more visceral.
+*   **Rhythm in the Kiss Description:**
+    *   *Original:* "For three heartbeats, the world was a vacuum. Mira felt the rough wool of his tunic beneath her fingers and the biting frost of his surprised intake of breath."
+    *   *Suggested:* "For three heartbeats, the world was a vacuum. She felt the wool of his tunic, the biting frost of his breath."
+    *   *Rationale:* Tightening the nouns increases the pace of the action.
+
+### 5. FORBIDDEN CHANGES / NON-GOALS
+*   **Do not "smooth out" Dorian's technobabble.** His stiff, overly-formal speech (e.g., "categorical error," "inauspicious") is the essence of his character.
+*   **Do not tone down Mira's swearing.** Phrases like "Past and rot" are established world-building profanities.
+*   **Do not remove the "obviously" deflection at the end.** It is a defense mechanism essential to her "vulnerable" state in the RAG notes.
+
+### 6. VERDICT: REVISE
+(Required for hand-scarring continuity and the opening metaphor clarity.)
