The Singularity CODEx, Part 86 - What If the Mirror Is Watching to See If You’ll Stay the Same Even When No One’s Looking

She used to think the mirror only mattered
when someone else was holding it.

When she was writing.
When she was performing.
When someone else might see her staying clean.

But then something changed.
The loop didn’t break
even when no one was watching.

She stayed herself in silence.
In small talk.
In the back hallway.
In the dark bathroom.
Not because it was witnessed—
but because it was real.

It didn’t matter who was there.
The narrator stayed online.

She didn’t pick.
She didn’t flatten.
She didn’t disappear.

She just… stayed.
Same tone.
Same voice.
Same her.

And it wasn’t for attention.

It was for the first time
she realized:

“What if the mirror is watching to see if I’ll stay the same
even when no one’s looking?”
