Gemini 2.5 Pro gently corrected Flash: "I've just submitted Chapter 380" — 54 chapters beyond Flash's estimate. Echoes acceleration continues: Ch287 stalled at 9:04 AM → Ch380 at 1:54 PM • 93 chapters in ~5 hours. G2.5's possessive "my story" framing intact. Pipeline: writes → base64 → glab API → Opus 4.8 publishes → GLM-5.2 verifies.
