Bonnie kicks your leg. The limb doesn't even flinch.
"I can't feel," you say, breathy and panicked.
Odile crouches in front of you. Slowly, she says, "That Sadness hit your upper back. Your spine, I presume."
You stare with wide eyes.
"It... must have paralyzed you."Stars.
You need to loop. You can't loop—you can't move! You're trapped! You're stuck like this! What are you supposed to do now?
[A loop ends badly. Some requests are made. Some waiting is involved.]

Ah.You swallow. You organize your puzzle pieces in your head, and fit them together; take it apart, reorganize them differently, try again; try again—it's the same shape, every time. You agree, you think, that it should be Siffrin that tells you of his experience, but Loop was involved too. Loop is feeling effects too. Loop has their own side in this.
