splattered
Flew in droplets
Splattered describes something that has been hit with liquid or soft matter that spreads on impact, leaving irregular marks or spots: The walls were splattered with paint.
It can also describe the pattern itself: splattered blood at the crime scene.
The word suggests messiness and randomness—droplets flung rather than carefully placed.
