Mnemonic


[ni-] Neo is in the [4] bathroom of the [-_] house. He accidentally uses his Matrix-bending powers to make the faucet of the sink 氵 spray out 羽 feathers instead of water. The bathroom quickly fills up with 羽 feathers, suffocating Neo who is pressed against the wall. He is slowly 溺 drowning in a "pool" of 羽 feathers.
