Wet Lab, silver-gelatin analogue close-up, portrait 4:5: gentle gloved hands examine a translucent black authority dial threaded with six damp parliamentary transcript strips on a real hex-lattice steel tray. A phosphor-green row of three tiny verification vials is the only carrier accent; the rest is warm oxblood, teal, cream paper and deep near-black. Numbered callouts identify 01 CREDIBILITY MEMBRANE, 02 SOURCE THREAD, 03 VERBATIM CLAMP. A chipped espresso cup rests absurdly beside the specimen. Bureau seal struck once lower right, thin filing pointers, hard single-source light, no faces, no gore. Output in exactly 1122 x 1402 px, 4:5 portrait ratio.
