2-3 second cinematic morph: the awakened crimson virus reflection becomes a sealed ISS saliva sample tube. Camera move: pull back from microscopic red glow to clean laboratory scale. Lighting transition: red-orange danger glow cools into blue-white orbital daylight. AUDIO DIRECTIVE: ominous pulse crossfades into clean analyzer beeps. NO spoken words.

Pixel art aesthetic maintained throughout, crisp pixel grid, NO style drift, NO smoothing, NO photo-realism.
