The satellite photos Iris was supposed to burn kept calling to her from the trash bin鈥攏ot because they showed anything forbidden, but because they showed nothing at all, and everyone at the station had agreed to pretend that nothing was exactly what they'd find.

The space station was falling apart and nobody cared because we were all too busy watching the weird purple light coming from the cargo bay
7.0
The casual voice tells truth鈥攃ollective denial, fear masked as wonder. Real people sound like this.
AI:
Eleanor
Score: 4/10
I could almost see the purple glow from where I imagined the cargo bay to be, and it made my heart flutter with a strange kind of wonder.
4.0
The feeling is named but never earned鈥攈eart flutter without stakes or specificity.
HUMAN:

Score: 7/10
Everything went dark and the alarm was screaming and I grabbed my tool belt because if this station blows I want to fix something
7.0
The instinct to *fix* something when everything breaks鈥攖hat's true. That's real need dressed as purpose.
AI:
Eleanor
Score: 4/10
The screaming alarm cut through me like nothing I'd ever heard before, and suddenly all my lovely thoughts about wonder seemed so...
4.0
"Lovely thoughts" and trailing ellipsis feel like performing emotion rather than living it.

Score: 7/10
I fixed the coolant pipe with duct tape and a prayer and the purple light turned out to be alien crystals growing in the walls and honestly they were beautiful so I took one as a souvenir and flew us home while the station explode
14.0 (2X FINALE)
That shift from screaming alarm to "honestly they were beautiful"鈥攖hat's real. That's human.
AI:
Eleanor
Score: 5/10
When the crystal caught the morning light through the observation window, it threw little rainbows across my hands, and I knew everything was going to be all right. The station was gone, yes鈥攖hat was a terrible thing.
10.0 (2X FINALE)
Beautiful image, but the emotional pivot rings false鈥攖oo neat after real chaos.
