Found in my works silverware drawer. Tempted to take it, none of my spoons even approach this level of perfection.

okay that's incredibly cool and that last thing makes me hate it.

does the capsule protrude? or did you have a bit of flesh carved out to create a recess?

Oh gosh, I can't even imagine a body modder carving some flesh out to implant something! There's definitely a little bulge but it settles in closer than you'd think.

that looks like a scar i have on my thumb, so its not too bad. it does make me think i would pick at it constantly though.

There's really nothing to pick at, I can't even actually see the insertion scar if I look hard. You can feel the pill-shaped bump easily under the skin, but it's never made me wanna pick at it. Trust me too, I'm a scar picker-at-er too so I would if I could.
