Delicate Extraction
A extraterrestrial entity floats above the surface of an alien world, a conjoined body dependent on the survival of the other half. A sharp scissor-like appendage holds a feeding tube that siphons liquid sustenance up from the planet, full of microorganisms and nourishment.
A suspenseful sensation is evoked, the loss of control derived from the codependency among a collective group unit trying to survive.
