One of my Anthrocon traditions is to get a sketch or two from Bill Holbrook. 'Course, I wasn't at AC this year, but my sketchbook was. ;)

Usually, Bill sketches Tali, Aby or both of 'em. However, the appearance of Sheila got me thinking. This is the kind of gal who'd get along great with Tali in a semi-friendly rivalry with each of them constantly trying to one-up the other. 'Course, Aby is the one who winds up really winning...

Students of comedy will recognize the classic ternary comic rhythm of these gags; in addition, there's three pages, which makes a sort of 3x3 rhythm to the thing.

Anyhow, enjoy!
