Conversation · Water Bowls

It's awfully silent again, as if someone turned off the entire world outside those walls. Water inside the bowls stands still.

Measurements have been marked down around the bowls, each chalk-drawn line representing a centimetre on the floor.

Oh boy, this is going to be good.

Move the third bowl from the left two centimetres away.

It moves like a ghost without creating a single trace of sound.

The lead programmer sends you an encouraging thumbs up from across the hall.

Time to run back! Or maybe walk, this is a sacred place after all...

And your leg still hurts from the tribunal.

This task is an insult to your mental skills.

Move the fourth bowl from the left five centimetres to the right.

Some water spills out of the bowl, wetting the floor.
