Itti-Bitti, the @bittiprotogen.bsky.social you get when you order on Temu.

A scan of a badge of a fluffy blue protogen head. His head is tilted up with a derpy, google-eyed expression. The words beneath him read "ITTI-BITTI ?!"

Scan of the new Mikita badge made for FinFur Animus. It's a bit of an upgrade from the one that was mounted on a box of chicken tikka masala.

#furry #furryart

A black cat is holding a white sign that reads "Mikita." He is wearing a loose, army-green leopard print sweater and a black and silver spiked collar with a ring hanging from the middle. His left hand is resting on the sign, and his right hand is held up in a peace sign. His fluffy tail is curved around the left corner.

Bitti and... Itti-Bitti?!

I can't think of a better way to celebrate my return to Finland than last weekend at FinFur Animus. Kiitos paljon to everybody who made it such an amazing time!

Two blue and black furred protogen fursuiters are dancing and holding each other close on a conventiondance floor. One is tall and wearing a fullsuit, with a happy blue and pink face. The other is much shorter, wearing a black shirt, and has a derpy googly-eyed face.

And so the sun sets on our UK adventure. Endless thanks to everyone we met who took time to make memories with us. We'll carry them fondly, along with a suitcase full of British snacks.

A smiling blue protobean is perched on the edge of a glass rail overlooking a wide expanse of grassy lawn. In the distance at the bottom of the hill, the National Maritime Museum and Naval Institute can be seen. Beyond that, a bit of the river Thames and London skyline can be seen rising against a pastel orange and blue sunset.

Brick Lane: because sometimes the best art galleries are found on the streets.

i-BB in front of a street art wall in Brick Lane in Shoreditch, London.

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean is sitting on a black bicycle seat in the foreground. Behind him, there is a wall full of paste-up art, including Grumpy Bear, a camera with the words "pull the blindfold down so your eyes can't see," the words "find your happy place" in blue text against a pink background, a yellow typewriter that says "I'm going to be brave and so are you," and a blue typewriter that says "if you fear failure, you're already considering it an option."

Sometimes we get a reminder that a rainbow can shine through the darkest clouds.

i-BB in a lucky moment on the Seven Sisters Cliffs Walking Trail, East Sussex.

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean is perched on a grey-brown wooden beam in the foreground. Behind him, there are two grassy hills and a sky full of dark grey clouds, with a bright arc of a rainbow cutting through the middle.

The Seven Sisters, because "Seven Really Big Cliffs" doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

i-BB posing in front of the Seven Sisters cliffs in East Sussex.

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean is perched on a metal railing in the foreground. Behind him, there is a patch of green-grey vegetation, the pale blue-grey sea, and seven large white chalk cliffs rising in the distance. The sky is pale grey and overcast.

No, we didn't go to Holland. Rottingdean just has some serious Van Gogh vibes.

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean is perched on the wooden beam of a fence in the foreground. The wood is worn and grey with patches of dull orange lichen. Behind him, a field of tan and green grass leads up to a black wooden windmill rising up on the horizon against a sky full of light grey clouds.

Our day was ruined! Ruined, I tell you!

Hm? It was a lovely day. We just visited some ruins.

i-BB at Lewes Priory in Lewes, East Sussex.

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean is seated on a pile of grey stones. Behind him, a stretch of green grass leads to a stone arch and wall, through which grass and trees are visible. In the distance, the sky is full of light grey clouds.

Oh, I do like to be beside the seaside!

i-BB in front of Brighton Palace Pier in Brighton, East Sussex.

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean is resting on a stone wall in the foreground. Behind him, the wooden legs of a pier rise from the beach and sea. There are white buildings on the pier, topped with a neon lit sign that reads Brighton Palace Pier. It is a sunny morning with white clouds across a blue sky.

They call Torquay "the Riviera of England," which makes a certain amount of sense once you've seen the palm trees by the water.

i-BB posing on a sunny day in Torquay, Devon.

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean is perched on a cement wall in the foreground. Behind him is a sweeping view of Torquay: boats in the marina, a strip of beach and buildings with a ferris wheel, and a hill full of white seaside buildings rising above it all. It is a sunny, humid day, all of the scenerybus vibrantly lit, and the sky is a hazy grey-tinged blue.

East coast to west coast to... south coast! There's a lot of coasts to visit when you're traveling through an island.

A smiling blue protobean is seated on a green box in the left foreground. Behind him, a patch of dried tan grass leads up to a white and red striped lighthouse rising up over the blue-grey sea. The sky behind is mostly clouds, with tiny bits of blue peeking through.

Thanks to @orzelek.bsky.social for putting together a composite image with the best swans!

In Wells, there is a bell that the local swans have been trained to ring since the 1800s. Their reward: a snack! Naturally, this means the swans will ring the bell all day if the rope isn't taken in.

Taken at the Bishop's Palace in Wells, Somerset.

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean rests on cement in the foreground. Behind him, there is the wall of a stone building rising out of a moat. There is a glass window, slightly open, and a metal bell hanging to the side. Beneath the window, two grey adolescent swans are swimming in the dark green water.

Bridging out in Bristol at the Clifton Suspension Bridge!

We had an emotional goodbye and a long journey down from the North. Now we'll travel the south coast for the rest of our adventure.

Loch Aye!

i-BB on the wall of Urquhart Castle, overlooking an uncommonly sunny day on Loch Ness, Scotland.

We did not run into the Loch Ness Monster, but that's just as well, because I wasn't about to give him £3.50.

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean is perched on a stone castle wall, which rises up on the left side of the photo. In the middle and right side of the photo, the blue-green water of Loch Ness and the hills across the shore are in the background. It is a sunny day, but the blue sky is full of white clouds.

Climbing through the misty moorlands.

i-BB taking a rest near the peak of Creag Bheag in the Scottish Highlands, overlooking Loch Gynack.

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean is sitting on a lichen-covered rock in the foreground. Behind him, there are bits of pink heather and greenery framing the bottom of a sweeping view of a small lake. Beyond the lake, more mountains of the Scottish Highlands are visible, gradually disappearing into a misty grey sky.

Greyfriars-BB! It was worth getting up at an unspeakable hour to get this shot of i-BB with the statue of the eternal good boy, Greyfriars Bobby. It's said that he waited by his master's grave for 14 years (tho he took a daily break for a hot meat pie).

#furry #protogen #protobean #bossmonsta #i-BB

A smiling blue protobean is wedged between the legs of the statue of Greyfriars Bobby, a dark terrier statue with a gold nose where tourists have rubbed it. Behind them, stone buildings and chimneys rise against a cloudy yet sunny early morning sky.
