Success

She thrashes

With her good hand, she digs the Viscountess' claw into the flesh of her false-arm. […]

You bind her wounds in satin as thick as a prince's swaddling. It whispers assurances to her, over and over[…] she has collected herself […]

Description summary:
Unlike the other option involving a weapon fashioned from a body part, the Commissioner is okay with this one because as is described in its brochure, the claw can cut without causing any pain. She does the cutting herself, before you bandage her dream-wounds with reassuring whisper-satin. However, unlike the other option, you don't get to collect the dream-arms.
