HDB- Removing Bullet

THE HANGED MAN - Your fingers are all the way in now, reaching toward the inside of his skull. The cavity goes further, but the entry wound isn't wide enough for the rest of your hand to follow...

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT - All the muscles in your body harden. Time to *enter* him.

YOU - Punch a hole through his mouth.

THE HANGED MAN - The cartilage gives in with a crack, like some fruit. Just like that your hand is in his head. Strange fluid streams down your wrist -- and then you feel it, with the tip of your finger...

PERCEPTION - Sharp, serrated material. The edges cut right into your skin.

PAIN THRESHOLD - The pain is barely noticeable under the adrenaline rush.

YOU - Fish it out.

[CHECK SUCCESS]

INTERFACING - You pick the object between your index and middle finger. It feels sharp, like metal. With your face twisting from pain and concentration, all you need to do is just...

YOU - Slowly pull your fingers out...

THE HANGED MAN - The inside of the head feels cold and smooth like a glove as you pull out, sweat dripping down your brow -- careful not to lose the prize between your fingers...

THE HANGED MAN - With a *plop*, your hand emerges from the mouth, covered in blood up to the wrist. Between your fingers -- a small flower, a blossom made of lead!
