Nemesis Signal Hologram

The hologram manifests as faint, oscillating light patterns suspended above Ace's scanner, barely registering on visual equipment. Its ghostly blue-green imagery resolves into jagged, geometric shapes that pulse with the Cybermen's encoded destruction cycle data. The Doctor traces the patterns with his fingers, muttering about temporal alignment, while Ace leans in with her hands on her hips, frustrated that the signal resists full decoding. De Flores dismisses it as irrelevant static until the Doctor explains its connection to Wagner's work and 1988's approaching tragedy.

Before: Empty and unresponsive, registering no signal on the scanner. "status_after_event": Begins to register faint temporal patterns as the Doctor’s reasoning unlocks the Nemesis’s destructive alignment with 1988.
