## Prompt (replace [TEXT] with your text)

```text
Create a neon sign that spells [TEXT] in rounded monoline tube lettering, mounted on a dark red-brown brick wall at night. Start in darkness with only a faint cool ambient light on the bricks. Ignite the letters one after another, left to right, each with a brief soft stutter before it settles. Lit tubes have a near-white core, a saturated colored edge and a soft halo; color the first letters icy cyan and the rest hot pink. The light spills across the wall, catching brick bevels and mortar lines and fading with distance. Add small metal clips holding the tubes, a black cable and a little transformer box. Hold with a faint hum, one letter dipping briefly, then switch off and loop.
