**POST-OP RECOVERY LOG: PHYSICAL & NEURAL ADAPTATION** **CLASSIFICATION:** RESTRICTED **DATE:** March 04, 2026 **SUBJECT:** Asset "Wulfsige" (A-993-W) **ATTENDING:** Dr. Aris Thorne, Asset "Luca" (Observer) *** ### **I. POST-SURGERY STATUS** Wulfsige woke from the procedure with remarkable stability. Unlike the disorientation typically seen in rapid biological shifts, he reacted as if waking from a standard night’s sleep. * **Luca’s Observation:** Asset Luca remained bedside throughout the process. He expressed visible relief, noting that Wulfsige displayed none of the "newborn panic" Luca himself experienced. * **Subject Quote:** *"I don't feel different. I mean, I know what is happening. I can see the fur. But to me, It’s just me."* ### **II. THE "PERFECT MESH" (SOMATIC AMNESIA)** The most fascinating outcome is the continuity of self. The "Human" and "Wolf" consciousnesses have fused seamlessly. * **The Anomaly:** Wulfsige possesses a selective "Somatic Amnesia." The human side of his memory has erased the sensation of having human skin; the wolf side has erased the memory of being a quadruped. * **Result:** He suffers no body dysmorphia. Both timelines exist simultaneously without conflict. He remembers driving a car (human) and being cared for in the sanctuary (wolf), and both feel equally "his." ### **III. PHYSICAL REHABILITATION: THE LEARNING CURVE** Physical testing (standing, gait analysis, running) began immediately. While gross motor skills are intact, unique challenges have emerged regarding "New Experiences" that neither biology has a reference for. **A. The "Tail Problem" (Sitting)** Upon attempting to sit in a briefing chair, Wulfsige hesitated. * **The Conflict:** His human memory says "sit back." His wolf memory says "sit on haunches." Neither memory accounts for a tail in a chair. * **Result:** He awkwardly sat on his own tail, causing immediate discomfort. He must now consciously learn to "sweep" the tail to the side—a completely novel motor function that must be learned from scratch. * **Clothing:** A similar issue arose with his pants. He struggled to coordinate threading the tail through the modification hole before pulling the pants up. There are many small gaps that trip him up, but he is adapting quickly. **B. Dexterity & Paw Pad Interference** While Wulfsige retained his human knowledge of how to use tools, his hardware has changed. * **The Issue:** His hand-paws are similarly shaped to human hands, but the thick keratin pads on the fingertips reduce fine tactile feedback. * **Observation:** He attempted to use a touch-screen tablet and grew visibly frustrated when his claws clicked against the glass or the pads registered double-inputs. * **Analysis:** This was a procedural oversight. We preserved the *memory* of dexterity but altered the *tools*. Unlike Luca (who learned to use paws from scratch), Wulfsige has human muscle memory fighting against wolf anatomy. He feels clumsy. ### **IV. CONCLUSION** Despite minor frustrations with fine motor control, the integration is a massive success. Wulfsige is adapting rapidly. He treats his new form not as a burden, but as a "Tuesday." * **Next Steps:** Scheduled for BEHAVIORAL & COGNITIVE ASSESSMENT (though findings are expected to be nominal). **End of Report.**
