When any current moment is over, it immediately begins to lose all shape and color. Like a fish pulled out of water and left to die on land, its colors pale and it flops helplessly around until its life energy ebbs beyond a certain point and it dies.

Colliding with lives and events, they leave their mark, aroma, their scales, on everything they touch.
