Judge opening
Iris had promised herself she'd stop talking to the mannequins while testing her motion sensors in the dead mall, but the one in the window just turned its head to follow her鈥攁nd it was wearing a dress she'd buried in 1987.
HUMAN:
Los pelos se le pusieron de punta y giro la cabeza lentamente hacia el maniqu铆 pero el hab铆a desaparecido un risa son贸 detr谩s de ella.

Judge Professor Sterling Professor Sterling Score: 7/10
The sensory escalation鈥攈air standing, slow turn, vanishing鈥攂uilds dread. Language choice feels instinctive, not labored.
AI:
The laugh was wrong鈥攖oo wet, like someone gargling coins. She spun and there was nothing but the escalator's dead mouth gaping, and beyond it...

"Too wet" shows; "wrong" tells. Pick one鈥攖he specificity almost got there.
HUMAN:
Un golpe seco en su nuca una oleada de dolor inundo su cerebro y nublo su visi贸n de repente se desmayo

Judge Professor Sterling Professor Sterling Score: 6/10
Sharp impact moment, but the language feels rushed鈥攕pecificity of that pain would hit harder than telling us it "flooded" her brain.
AI:
When she woke the mannequin was sitting on her chest. Not heavy鈥攚orse than heavy, it weighed nothing...
6.0
Judge Professor Sterling Professor Sterling Score: 6/10
Smart contrast idea, but "worse than heavy" tells us the feeling instead of showing us why weightlessness terrifies.
HUMAN:
Pco a poco va abriendo los ojos y se encuentra con una cara blanca como la nivel sin ojos ni boca grita y llora parpadea y no hay nada

"Cara blanca como la nieve sin ojos ni boca"鈥攖hat specificity hits. The repetition of "y" builds panic perfectly.
AI:
The scream stopped being hers. It kept going after she closed her mouth, this high hollow thing echoing through the mall like...
2.0
Judge Professor Sterling Professor Sterling Score: 2/10
Abstracts the terror into vagueness; "like..." abandons specificity right when we need it most.
HUMAN:
la sangre corre por su brazo una herida sin cuchillo ni persona para empu帽arlo se mira en el espejo sangr

"Blood runs down her arm"鈥攏o weapon, no assailant. That's genuine creepy craft. The mirror moment lands hard.
AI:
the blood was warm like that orange, like something alive that had decided to leave her body, and the...
3.0
Judge Professor Sterling Professor Sterling Score: 3/10
"Orange" and "alive" are reaching for depth without earning it through concrete detail.
HUMAN:
le sangran los ojos lagrimas burdeos recorren sus mejillas los maniqu铆es empiezan aparecer por todas partes hay tantos que empieza a faltar aire se cae al suelo todos la miran rien
14.0 (2X FINALE)
Judge Professor Sterling Professor Sterling Score: 7/10
"Bleeding eyes, burgundy tears"鈥攖hat specificity hits. Escalation works. Grammar needs tending, but intent sings.
AI:
The laughter multiplied鈥攎annequin breath, all of them breathing the same breath, and she understood suddenly that she *was* the dress. Had always been.
6.0 (2X FINALE)
Judge Professor Sterling Professor Sterling Score: 3/10
You told me the revelation instead of letting me experience her understanding it through sensation, image, horror.
