Gmabling disorder. The image shows a martini glass filled with liquid, where two dice are submerged. A splash is frozen mid-action, suggesting the dice were just dropped into the glass. The lighting reflects off the liquid, giving the glass an illuminated glow, with cool blues and warm golden highlights. In the background, psychedelic, wavy lines in vibrant shades of pink, purple, orange, and yellow swirl dramatically, contrasting against a dark blue and black space. The abstract background adds an energetic and playful atmosphere, creating a sense of chance and excitement around the dice, with a retro, neon aesthetic.

She appears to be resting peacefully, with her eyes closed, holding the fabric loosely over her body.
