Dissociate.
v. to sever the association of; disconnect; separate.
to undergo dissociation.
There's this moment during regeneration, where the life you're leaving behind and the life you are hurtling towards collide and stretch like cosmic putty. And in the middle of that is you, trapped between what was and what will be. Frozen, like a mosquito inside amber. Bearing witness to the stranger that is no longer you and the stranger you don't yet know.
More than anything, this is what you hate the most about regeneration. That perfect moment of nonexistence that stretches and stretches and stretches beyond infinity, before snapping you forwards your new self. The perfect moment of death.
