Hmmm... does the pattern have a heritage of its own?

I think that's a better way to handle stress . . . one less likely to have unforeseen consequences.

Did anyone else check the tags? The butterfly/moth has a name, Reginald. Who wants to have a little wager on Reggie getting zapped into human form, or at least a form that can talk to Castela, in say 3 to 4 years?

Celtic knotwork, real popular at renfests around these parts, and I assume elsewhere.

Don t think he has to be zapped. My bet is on hes her mentor/guardian.

Pickle is an ARTIST! I want to throw money her way now to encourage this most wonderfully constructive way to deal with stress.

I must admit, I did not notice that Paul actually had Reggie named for his first appearance, 2017-02-02.

Nobody ever suspects the butterfly.

Nobody ever expects the butterfly.

The butterfly, in the canyon, with the... um... what weapon would a butterfly use to commit murder?

By the way, before Castela starts selling those on etsy, I think it might be fun to wave a geiger counter over one.

The Butterfly,
in the Canyon,
w/ a Acupuncture Needle...

Uh oh.

I have a bad feeling about this.

I think Pablo is doing some subtle foreshadowing here. Ominous foreshadowing.

I think he's told us where Castela's future "issues" are going to be coming from.

Look at that pattern she's just made. Gaze into it as a symbol of her fate.

She's going to have a torrid romantic affair with a charming young para, with Asian features and an engaging Irish accent. He's a Celtic knotweed.

And they're nothing but trouble.

Japanese knotweed certainly is trouble!

Or else Reginald's story will come to a tragic end when he meets Digit, and her instincts take over.

I suppose that the question now is whether or not he's actually a butterfly. Perhaps the Fae are still keeping an eye on Castela, but trying to do so in a way less likely to get their wings and heads ripped off? Or perhaps this is a butterfly who has been mutated due to all of the radiation unleashed in the canyon? Or maybe it's the Navajo Butterfly Boy, and he thinks Castela is cute?
