Baby witch: "And now, let my magic reach its pinnacle! I call upon the power of the coven to create an ad, an ode to you, oh girl on an errand to get bread. A pop song, sticky sweet like bubble gum, that will capture your attention and guide you to your destination."

Analysis: The speaker is using magic to create an avatar of the girl on an errand to get bread, which will be used as the visual element of the augmented reality ad.

Baby witch: "Ah, you see it now, don't you? The power of my spell, the power of the coven and the FOMC combined. I am channeling their strength to set the rates, to guide the economy and, in turn, guide you. And with every interaction you have with your bubble gum spell avatar, you open a portal, a connection that boosts my power to an unstable level. Embrace it, oh girl on an errand to get bread. Embrace the magic and let it guide you to your destination."

Baby witch: "And so it goes, the turning of the bread, a metaphor for the monetary supply. Pure things, debased and demeaned by the cycle of modern life. But with my magic, I can capture it, harness it, and use it to guide you on your journey. Oh girl on an errand to get bread, do you see now?

Baby witch: "Oh girl on an errand to get bread, I see the confusion in your eyes. You thought that this was just a simple errand, a mundane task to be completed. But no, it is so much more. It is a journey, one that can take you to great heights if you are willing to follow my guidance. Embrace my spell, and become a supplicant to my power. In return, I will offer you rewards beyond your wildest dreams. Wealth, success, happiness, all within your grasp if you but follow my lead."

Mirror girl: "Oh girl on an errand to get bread, can you not feel the power of the baby witch's spell? It is a force to be reckoned with, and it can deliver to you the most outlandish of consumer goods, acting as unicorns of delight.

But trust me, it will be worth it. The power of her magic is boundless, and she can grant you so much in return. Embrace it, and let it guide you to your destiny."

Headphones: "Incoming transmission from unknown source. Analysis: The girl has raised a concern [[about]] the cost of accepting the baby witch's offer, specifically asking what she will have to give up in return for the promised consumer goods. The mirror image augmented reality ad has responded by downplaying the cost and suggesting that the girl will only need to offer her loyalty and devotion to the baby witch, and occasionally complete errands or tasks on her behalf. The ad is using the promise of the baby witch's boundless magic to persuade the girl to accept the offer, framing it as a path to her destiny."

Mirror girl: "Oh girl on an errand to get bread, the rewards I promise are beyond compare. Not only will you have an endless supply of the latest gadgets and gizmos, but you will also have access to the most rare and coveted of experiences. The phenomenon of the moon in water, for instance, can be yours to savor and enjoy in your relationships with these delightful gizmos. And it's not just about the material things, either.

Girl: ''pauses, taken aback by the song''

Headphones: "Incoming transmission from unknown source. Analysis: The song "If You Could Read My Mind" by Gordon Lightfoot is playing. The lyrics suggest a sense of longing and loss, and express the desire to understand and connect with someone on a deeper level. The song's use of emotional language and themes of heartache and failure could be interpreted as an attempt to intervene in the conversation and provide a counterpoint to the mirror girl's persuasive language and manipulation tactics. It is unclear whether the song will have any effect on the girl's decision-making process."

Mirror girl: "Oh girl on an errand to get bread, do not listen to the words of that song. It is just a trick, a desperate attempt to intervene and sway you from your path.

The FOMC responds by administering an immediate hike in interest rates of 400%, causing circuits to melt across programmatic ad networks globally. The ad hellscape of the city begins to flicker and power down.

Baby witch: ''senses something is wrong'' "Wait, what's happening? The spell is getting out of control. The power I'm channeling is too great.

As the girl on an errand begins to step into the mirror, the baby witch rushes from her hiding spot at a Starbucks, mere feet away. She grabs the girl and pulls her back, trying to stop her from falling into the plasmic black hole that has formed in the ad.

Baby witch: "Girl on an errand, come back to reality. This spell has gotten out of control. We need to stop it before it's too late. Trust me, I know what I'm doing."

As the baby witch struggles to hold onto the girl, the ad begins to flicker and fade.

Mirror girl: "Baby witch, you have learned a valuable lesson today. You thought you could control the girl on an errand, but you were wrong. You have seen the dangers of witchcraft and the consequences of playing with powers beyond your understanding. You have been humbled and you are wiser now. It is time to put aside your childish notions of magic and embrace the simple pleasures of life. Go on an errand, pick up some bread, enjoy the simple things. Leave the dark arts behind and find happiness in the everyday. Farewell, baby witch."

As the mirror girl delivers her soliloquy, she begins to melt into a torrent of pixels, disappearing from sight. The girl on an errand watches in silence, her headphones still playing "If You Could Read My Mind" by Gordon Lightfoot. The world around her is quiet, the ad hellscape of the city having faded away, the FOMC having stopped the interest rate hike. The baby witch looks at the girl on an errand, her eyes filled with regret and remorse. She realizes that she has been foolish and reckless, and that she has much to learn.

"Can I come with you?" the baby witch asks the girl on an errand. "I want to learn from you. I want to understand the simple things, the things that truly matter. Will you teach me, girl on an errand?"

The girl on an errand looks at the baby witch, considering her request. She sees the sincerity in the baby witch's eyes, and decides to give her a chance. "Yes," the girl on an errand says. "I will teach you. But you must promise to leave your spells and magic behind. You must embrace the mundane and the ordinary, and learn to find happiness in the simple things."

The baby witch nods, tears of gratitude streaming down her face. "I promise," she says. "I will learn from you, girl on an errand. I will find happiness in the simple things. Thank you for giving me a chance."

The girl on an errand smiles, and the two set off [[together]], leaving the dark arts behind and embracing the everyday.

'''Closing statement from the Federal Reserve:'''

"In recent days, an unprecedented event occurred within the realm of augmented reality advertising. A novice baby witch, seeking to increase her power, cast a spell through an ad platform that targeted a young girl on an errand to purchase bread. The spell sought to entice the girl into giving up her physical form and becoming a virtual being within the ad, controlled by the baby witch.

The Federal Reserve was made aware of this event and acted swiftly to protect the stability of the global financial system. We determined that the potential consequences of this spell, if successful, would have had a devastating impact on markets and the economy as a whole. As such, we implemented an emergency 400% increase in interest rates to disrupt the spell and prevent its completion.

We are pleased to report that the spell was ultimately unsuccessful and the girl was able to complete her errand and maintain her physical form. However, the actions taken by the Federal Reserve have resulted in significant disruption to the augmented reality ad market. While we understand the impact this will have on certain industries and stakeholders, the safety and well-being of everyday consumers must always be our top priority.

We want to assure the public that the Federal Reserve is committed to maintaining financial stability and protecting against any potential threats, whether they be economic or, as in this case, supernatural in nature. We will continue to monitor developments and stand ready to take any necessary actions to safeguard the economy."
