The end of the Clipperton legend (ii)
because reports of Lyle’s appearance outside the weight room upright and walking across the grounds have spread and caused enormous excitement and student-snapshots—it’s because it was just as Lyle and L. A. Moore hit the upstairs hallway that they reeled out of the room in a miasma of cordite and ghastly mist that they’re preserved in various snapshots as resembling miners of some sort of really grisly coal.
Context
Cameras pointed at the wrong marvel: the students are out shooting the once-ever sight of Lyle crossing the grounds, and their snapshots accidentally preserve the blood-misted Incandenzas staggering from the Clipperton room instead. Still photography rather than film, so texture-tier — but it's the scene's second accidental documentation, the lens catching what nobody aimed at.
