feat: Add character-dialog shortcode and stylesheet

There has been a massive uptick in spam within the past two weeks. A
form field called `_gotcha` is a little on-the-nose, so as a first pass
effort, rename the field to something that sounds more legitimate for a
contact form. More involved strategies will be put in place, but this is
a quick and dirty fix that is worth a try based on the time involved.

+# Characters
+
+Imaginary friends that help me inject personality into my articles. These are
+anthropomorphized versions of animals that I have known in real life. I tried to
+draw them roughly in the style of Chris Pasquini, but failed myself, then tried
+using Perplexity's image generation. The style isn't quite the same, but I like
+it for these animals. Also, Perplexity does a horrible job of labeling images,
+so ignore the ref sheet emotion labels.
+
+## Spawn of Satan (aka Spawn aka SOS)
+
+![Spawn ref sheet](spawn/_ref-body-perplexity.png)
+
+Spawn of Satan is the name Travis gave to the cannulated cow, and it stuck.
+Spawn is old and cynical after having every professor with a new idea experiment
+on her. After being in academia for so long, she knows her way around
+mathematics and the scientific method reasonably well, even if she's never
+formally taken a college course in the sciences. She is the realist to any blog
+post's optimist.
+
+## Whelen
+
+![Whelen ref sheet](whelen/_ref-body-perplexity.png)
+
+Whelen is a happy-go-lucky German Shepherd/Husky mix puppy. He's been to school
+once - and that was just to get neutered - so his knowledge of math and science,
+heck, even of the humanities, isn't very good. He is very naive and thinks
+everyone is nice and wants to be his friend, but he is also friendly to everyone
+and is very vocal when he feels left out. He will step in when any blog post is
+getting too technical and demand an explanation for real people (dogs?).
