Mesmerized is a nice way to describe it. Watching the flexible orbits of the Twenty-Nines is changing the way I look at reality. The orbits are normal for a time, and then they flex. This makes it easier for the Electrons to jump off of one Twenty-Nine and onto another, creating a nice flow. The flow begins as a trickle, ramps up to a steady peak and then ebbs back to nothing as the orbits re-entangle nearby Electrons.

Getting into this little dance was not so difficult. Letting it push me around the loop in fits and stops was uneasy at first, but became tolerable after a few cycles. There was a nice rhythm to this, a rhythm that was hauntingly familiar. Not all of the cycles were the same, and by watching the patterns of the occasional Twenty-Six and other oddball atoms, I began to gauge a sense of the force and the envelope, and to categorize the differences.

The biggest difference is that direction of movement can change. Other than direction, there is quantity and distance. Sometimes, the cascade is large and other times, the number of loops we make is quite astounding. At other times, its just a trickle for just a few atoms. The real trick is to keep away from the Thirties that just spoil all the fun.
