Looks like a moss spore capsule to me.

Yup, moss spore capsule.

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is that I make bad decisions.

I think it’s coming out of the little bit of moss here, which I think is the same as the moss growing in with my ceph (same source) in the second photo.
