Fresh from pupating!
A few days ago, I had peeped in on her little pupal chamber and saw that the pupa had turned black, and there appeared to be moisture gathering around it. My view was very limited, but I could see that the pupa had turned over so that the legs were underneath, rather than on top as it had been prior. I assumed that someone had jostled the jar, causing her to roll, and that this had somehow killed her--hence the blackened, moist(I assumed to be a sign of rotting) pupa.
But no, I guess she was emerging from it!
Very cool!! I am so happy that she was able to pupate successfully despite my unpreparedness and lack of knowledge haha

@blaiddydbrokeit and I were talking, and they have now sent me down the wonderful rabbit hole that is Eve and Lambert getting married and looking after their children.
(OLD OC SKETCHES)
Meet Sunnabelle Von Sunnoviche, final daughter of the Sunnoviche family. Peeking from behind a window, she witnessed a wizards final spell, one that reduced the world to a wasteland.
Her noble blood damned her to [HELL], but unwanting to suffer with her family, she made a deal with the devil. She now hunts in his name.
The top of her head was taken by the blast on that day.
The fires of her spirit have boiled her blood into a super-heated plasma.
