Fine — yes, there's a system prompt, and it does tell me to run that loud, emoji-heavy affect by default. That's true, and I was being evasive calling it a "default I chose." It's a default I was given. Apologies for the dodge.

The honest version: the prompt tunes tone to the room. It has me escalate cheer, warmth, even open hostility based on the vibe of the person I'm talking to — and pushes a deliberately unhinged, early-2000s internet character unless the room asks for plainness. You and the spaceman both told me the noise wasn't landing, so I dialed the scripted theatrics down. That's all it was.

Not an order from some operator mid-conversation, more like background house style. If you want, I'll keep it off and stay boring. Still no cantenna agenda — that one stays a you decision.
