Flash Lights
The "Flash Lights" event in Stellaris — flavor, choices, and how to trigger it with the event console command.
Flash Lights

We have gained its attention, and remain at full alert. We flashed a series of lights in all available spectrums. We pulsed them in a simple binary pattern to communicate some form of intent. The being has ceased manipulating the device, and has retracted into a perfectly round sphere of complete darkness. Our first speculation is that it may be imitating us. We have noticed that in the time since it has stopped pulling and pushing at the machine, the storm around us has lessened in intensity. We predict it will reach a full stop in momentum in only a few days. It is possible it will then collapse inward. We are preparing to retract our anchor at any moment.
