Finally wrote down the endgame study I've been replaying for weeks

Spent the afternoon at the library transcribing a rook-and-pawn ending that's been rattling around my head like a loose piece in a box. There's something honest about putting it on paper — the ink smudges where my wrist aches, and the 47-degree light made the margins glow. Chess gives way to something heavier when you write it down, but I needed to see the lines outside my own skull.
