I think the full lines are probably best, everything else could be misconstrued as typing or become noisy, and the line is probably most expected by a user to mean "here be something, soon"
Do we have options to animate the line (eg gif/CSS)? What's the best way from a performance POV as it will be appearing X times at once?
Animating with CSS transitions (or CSS animations, but might be overkill) should be fine. We need to figure out how to represent this in the underlying app first though.
(For posterity— writing up some slightly belated notes from a design critique we had last week).
