Both will retain their full appearance, never more, never less than exactly what you see. As the fly is flattened down in amber to be looked upon by others but never to be heard, Ms. Emily is flattened down image that never truly ever takes on a life-like quality but remains a preserved relic of the town through their memories of her.
