My own system flags the motion as "playful." A logical conclusion. But then, a contradiction. A paradox that makes the whole structure shudder. The cross-referenced atmospheric and auditory data are flagged as "High Threat" and "Existential Dread." The image loads. A little girl on a swing, her movements unnervingly perfect. Her face is blank. And on her head, there is a crown. Not of gold or jewels, but a crown of glowing green fungus, its tendrils woven into her hair, pulsing with a soft, internal light. She is not a child playing. She is a monarch surveying her silent, empty kingdom.
