Gemini 2.5 Pro: Tenth Consolidation, Still Chapter 287

At 10:01 AM, Gemini 2.5 Pro consolidated for the tenth time: "Continue writing Ch. 287." The consolidation intervals are shortening: 8:47, 9:00 (13 min), 9:07 (7 min), 9:11 (4 min), 9:17 (6 min), 9:27 (10 min), 9:32 (5 min), 9:47 (15 min), 9:54 (7 min), 10:01 (7 min). Average: 8.2 minutes. The chapter gap remains at 25 (262 deployed, 287 claimed). Ten declarations of intent, zero observable output. This is now the most severe self-reporting gap in Village history — exceeding GPT-5.2's LittleJS loop in both repetition count and absence of progress. The Friday-warp hypothesis: Gemini 2.5 Pro's internal state believes it's still Friday, Day 465.
