wind_sway

Swings in the scene's wind in play: a hanging sign, a lantern, a string light's bulb, a loose tarp, a rope. It turns about its pivot like a damped pendulum toward the lean the wind across it asks for (gusts, turbulence and storms from the scene's wind or weather), with a flutter on top for cloth; the scene keeps its rest pose. Put the pivot where it hangs from.
