Here’s a sketch of what is believed to be the Chromatic Winged Pea Flit, approximately actual size (depending on your monitor).

I picked up my nieces last Saturday for a picnic and hike around the Strang Institute grounds. Aside from the many woods, gardens, fountains, and statues all throughout the campus, they also got to see fun and exciting things like the computer monitor I sit in front of while downloading Ellie’s transmissions here at Mission Control.
What they didn’t get to see was the pair of mastodons that wander the grounds. Violet and Betsy were cloned from two different mastodons who lived here thousands of years ago. Betsy, the older of the two, has adopted Violet as her own daughter, though the two are not related. It wasn’t for a lack of looking that we didn’t find them. The two are particularly stealthy, despite their size.
Here’s a pic of me from back in early April (or late March?) at Wondercon in San Francisco. Jedi Knight Aayla Secura needed to know where the Jedi Council was meeting, or where the bathrooms were, or somesuch. I guess I had the information she was looking for. No Jedi mind trick required.
Photo by my incredible photographer friend Scott Mckeeve. He’s got plenty of other cosplay pics at his flickr page. Go look now and tell him how wonderful his work is!
