Dense Caption

Solid blue background. Cyan text in a blocky font displays "Katie", "Catherine", "Aidan", and "BFFLS" twice in two vertical columns. White pixel dots are scattered throughout: some form small clusters near the center-left, others appear as isolated points on the right side and bottom edge. The layout is symmetrical with identical text blocks on both sides of the image.
