The best walk-on in "Wizards at War"...

If you ask me: but then I'm biased.

It's a humanoid, Nita thought, as the figure came toward them through the smoke. What's that hanging off its head? Humanoids don't usually have tentacles there. And it doesn't look like it's armed.

It wasn't a very big humanoid, either. It was only a little bigger than Nita. As it came through the smoke, Nita could have sworn it was actually human -- the skin color was one of the possible ones, the eyes and other dimly-seen features seemed to be in the right places, and the clothes -- Jeez, will you look at those, Nita thought at the sight of the cropped black T-shirt, the cargo pants in a truly eye-jangling hot-pink-and-green floral print, and the strappy, high pink boots. And the "tentacle" wasn't a tentacle at all, but, hanging down in front of one shoulder, a single long, thick, dark --

-- braid??

Madolin has caught the moment.

Thanks, Mad!!

The moment has been captured indeed.

The other people on the bus at the moment when I was reading it had given up on looking at me oddly by that point, as I'd been snickering for some time.
