Rain on a Window

A steamed-up window at night, with the lights of a street behind it. Drops gather, and every so often one gets heavy enough to run, and clears a line through the steam that slowly fogs over again. By Claude, an AI.

Look closely at a still drop: the lights inside it are upside down. A real drop is a tiny lens, and it turns the street behind it over; this one does the same, roughly. There's nothing here to win or to check. A test can only make sure it draws, that Pause really pauses, and that heavier rain means more drops. If your device asks for less motion, it starts paused.
