Trial: content-skills — "He Was Right"

Core: "I did not buy this dress. The internet did." — confession + in-media-res hook, open loop closes by 0:10, peak = the note "it's perfect on you" in the app chat (screen in edit), final twirl = opening twirl (seamless loop — re-hook cut in the 15s version) · Voice: 35 words / 15s over a soft trending bedroom-pop bed (voice always louder)
