The gradual, often unnoticed shift in a group's or individual's overall mood away from where it started, without any single clear cause.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

LORE & ORIGIN

Extended from vibe-check and vibe-buffering language once people started naming the slow accumulation of small mood changes rather than a sudden shift.
