Soap bubbles with shy rainbow sheen and floating eye-dots; permanently afraid of popping; emotion = wobble amplitude.

Character design sheet, 12 individuals in a grid, each a different pose and emotion (curious, shy, proud, sleepy, startled, delighted, stubborn, comforting). Face = eyes only, no mouth unless noted. Flat 2D, single accent color, neutral background, readable at 20 pixels. Original creature design — inspired by the warmth of classic animation sidekicks but NOT a copy of any existing character.
