Direction 3 — CONTOUR

The current language, mastered

Brain STRESSED · DIVERGENT — Breath STRESSED · 8 breathing, 1 unsensed, 0 stalled — Heart STRESSED · DEGRADED — Nerve UNMEASURED · STATED ABSENCE — Witness RESTING · CORROBORATED

The control: today’s flat-fill language with its geometry perfected — heart moved to center with the apex down-left, lobes symmetric, proportions corrected. If this one wins, the lesson is the language was fine and the geometry wasn’t.

Flat grade fills and 1.8-weight outlines — the fleet’s standing language
Same shapes as the live figure, geometry corrected per the direction set
The set’s control — the least distance from the current figure

The one grade object — identical on all five

Organ	Grade	Its own word
Brain	STRESSED	DIVERGENT
Breath	STRESSED	8 breathing · 1 unsensed · 0 stalled
Heart	STRESSED	DEGRADED
Nerve	UNMEASURED	STATED ABSENCE
Witness	RESTING	CORROBORATED

Candidate only — the live Fleet Command face keeps the current figure until Curtis picks. Filled from the same compose-time grade object as the live face (op35 compose, Sat Nov 14); heart center, apex down-left, per the Stylist’s direction set §2. No rectangles in the figure; grade words + companions carry the grayscale read.
