jezebellydancer asked to see the flower creature in its carnivore phase.
Enjoy (and to see it larger, click on it to go to my flickr page and hit “all sizes”).
Now, it’s brni‘s turn to tell us all about it.

Started out as a mindless doodle and ended up to be a “flower creature.” I’m hoping Brni will write a story about this peaceful, amphibious creature whose diet is primarily flowers and succulent leaves, but during the last days of summer, turns savagely carnivorous. Thank the gods they hibernate during the coldest months of winter!

Brni and I went on a wine-run tonight and I decided to indulge in a nice (not outrageous) port. I stared helplessly at the two port wines I was interested in…a tawny port and a “founders reserve.” So, not knowing enough to make a reasonable choice, I asked the staff.
“What’s the difference between the tawny and the reserve port?”
“The price.”
“oh…”So after a chuckle, he asked the man at the other register, “What’s the difference between the tawny port and the reserve?”
“I don’t know. The price?”They then decided to ask the man in the booth which overlooks the rest of the store. “He doesn’t know anything but he has a computer and can google.”
By this time, Brni had found his whiskey and we decided to try the Founders Reserve port. We paid, left and headed back to the car when the second guy came running out and said, “Color! He googled it and the difference is the color of the wine.”
heh…
I’ve since found there’s more to it than color, but the trip was fun.

He is looking for someone or something that no one will discuss, that he has only inferred, for the unnamed person or thing whose advent or presence has been troubling the company all day.
Then a hand as massive and hard as an elk’s horn, lashed by tough sinews to an arm like the limb of an oak, grabs the boy by the shoulder and drags him back into the wings.
