After a suitable period of rest, the fairy here exhibited requires a singular and long external kinetic force (the "boop") to engage it's medial musculature chain, rapidly expanding and contracting at a Hz remarkably similar to the flutter of a humingbird. For energy conservation and, it is presumed, predator avoidance, the fairy spends most of it's life at rest, coming alive for only brief 3-7 minute excursions.

Like most fairies of it's genus, this specimen exhibits a vestigial oddity which continues to baffle the research community: while active, a second light "boop" causes the contraction pattern of the musculature to behave in an incomprehensible and wholly degenerate "morse code" pattern so disorienting that the fairy must often restart it's excursion from the beginning. The evolutionary utility of this secondary mode may remain forever mysterious.
