the surgery was a failure and lyra spent the rest of her life sticking her butt in the air because her front legs were several inches shorter. |

It won't work cause you'll have to rewire the brain to affect the somatosensory system in order for individual digits to function properly |

@715: You gotta kick logic to the curb. Cause that's how bronies roll!
…Until we get distracted by a fanfic or certain shippings. Then it's like a bucking major league debate all up in here. >.> |

Technically, hooves evolved from toes that had become fused together via evolutionary processes. It's conceivable that the motor control for those digits still exists, even if atrophied. |

^Except that muscular controll for the fingers is actually more located in the forearms than in the hand itself; in the hand it's almost nothin but bone and sinew, with only smaller, weaker fine motor control msucles in the palm and on the back, and on each joint, but nost of the grip strength that Lyra would find useful is in the arms. At best, just the muscles in the hand might not be strong enough to even use on her lyre. |

^^ also for the fact that it could be possible with the training of the mind to train another part of your brain to control your motor skills.
How do you think some patients who get like their brain blown out by a blast, and still manage to retrain their minds? or if it needed to be cut out. whatever the case, i think the mind is more than capable to learn how to be able to control fingers again. |
