could you perchance talk a bit about The Seamstress? theyre the BH slugcat I think ive seen you talk about the least
thats because i still don't fucking know what to do with them </3
in general the post maw-collapse storyline [besides chiems and ochre] are where i've struggled the most. what next, after all of that shit, you know? especially because starlight especially needs a LOT of characterization work the brainworms just havent aligned for....
adaptation wise the idea is both a callback to starlights architect [whos named silk! yes i named them After but its a fun connection] but also recently i figured out why its like that.... i think starlights surrounding area is sooo miserable to traverse. super super marshy from all the backwater from sparks Super high production, full of fireflies [like stars], very dark with lots of shit lurking. you know that one room in gutter with the super muddy water thats almost impossibel to swim thru? Yeah imagine that for a whole region. so seamstress was designed to bypass all of that and well. use webs and etc to get over it, as well as to carry things through satchels and etc it made with its silk.
story wise... it has Something to do with aurora and starlight. I think aurora's 'oh god the consequences of my actions' finally getting through his head [he's kind of the reason whispers exists + more importantly gave starlight the information that led her down the path she took] and trying to like. reconcile all the Shit that happened especially as starlight begins to freak out and realize how badly maw got into her head [especially as maw ditches it to worry about sparks]. its all very messy in my head... it probably serves as some kind of messenger for them???? perhaps originally designed for starlight to try and get maws attention but then maw went [metal pipe sfx] and. idk im just ranting . SHAKES STARLIGHT why are you so hard to WRITEEEE
