# Expand arrows animated icon

It opens out. Light: the four corner arrows launch outward along their diagonals and fade before the edges; a fresh set bursts out of the middle, lands just past rest and settles. Strong: they pull in first, launch farther with speed streaks behind them, and the fresh set lands with a bigger overshoot and settles in two beats.
