Marmy's Honest Reaction to a Jack-o'-Lantern 🎃

The story

Marmy is a small egg-shaped creature made of marmalade-orange clay, with two big glossy eyes, no mouth and a deadpan stare. He stands on a cozy autumn kitchen counter beside a big clay pumpkin while a carving knife saws a crooked jack-o'-lantern face into it. A candle drops inside and lights, and its orange glow flickers across Marmy's face as his eyes slide sideways toward the camera. A close-up holds on his eyes for a beat, then one single slow blink. Suddenly the pumpkin pops its lid with a puff of sparks. Marmy does not flinch. He only leans a few degrees away, half-lidded, as a fallen leaf drifts onto his head. The episode is silent, with no text and no speech.
