#(it's probably very very obvious from a glimpse at my profile that i ship evespella but it’s not happening here!)

I was expecting the Eves to be Sissel and Sissel just with Sissel (human) being the one to die and get ghost powers. Though Espella and her mental health challenges do fit with Sissel's presumed difficulties. Going to be interesting to find out how this all happened

I'll admit that I didn't consider that avenue -- Eve Belduke already has some overlap character-wise with Yomiel to a point where it made more sense in my head to compare them as opposed to Fiansissel, who is...well, one of the most blatant examples of fridging out there, in my opinion. (And I'm a DC comics fan -- there's a lot to choose from.)

I do headcanon Fiansissel to already have been struggling with depression before Yomiel's death sent her over the edge, so that does, indeed, line up with Espella’s issues. My thoughts were more "how can I make these character arcs even a little bit line up" more so than a 1:1 replication of Sissel and Yomiel's relationship, for both senses of "Sissel".
