## Full prompt

```text
Using the provided reference image as the character base, generate a 3x3 grid of 9 distinct square panels. Each panel should depict the same character in different candid, slice-of-life scenarios, styled to look like casual snapshots or social media posts.

Layout: A perfectly aligned 3x3 grid with thin white borders separating the panels.

Style & Atmosphere: The overall aesthetic should be soft, slightly grainy, and naturalistic, mimicking amateur photography. Use varied lighting conditions (daylight, indoor warm light, dusk) and camera angles (close-ups, medium shots, full-body shots).

Panel Content Instructions:
1. Top Left: Motion blur effect, character looking back over shoulder outdoors.
2. Top Center: Character sitting at a cafe table with an iced coffee drink in the foreground, resting chin on hand.
3. Top Right: Close-up selfie angle, partially obscured by a finger or thumb covering part of the lens.
4. Middle Left: Character making a peace sign near their face, winking or squinting against bright sunlight.
5. Middle Center: Silhouette shot against a bright window, standing indoors.
6. Middle Right: Low-angle street shot, character walking past a concrete wall.
7. Bottom Left: Extreme close-up of face, mouth open in surprise or mid-speech.
8. Bottom Center: Night/dusk scene, character walking away down a dimly lit street with streetlights.
9. Bottom Right: Rear view of character walking along a sidewalk next to a fence.

Constraints: Maintain consistent character design (hair color, outfit details like the oversized dark hoodie/sweater and shorts) across all panels. Ensure high variety in composition and mood.
