Cocoon info
This is going to be kind of brief but since I mentioned Tsubasa's change in the last post I should expand on that, to be exact the cocoons.
When a Royal is ready to become a Queen they go home to their parents for the royal jelly and a ceremony, this only happens when their parents feel a Royal makes a sizable contribution to their own future hive, seconds after drinking the jelly the cocoon will form around them. They can be in there for quite a few months.
In some cases the contribution made can be a mate, in which case the chosen mate will enter the cocoon with the royal and both will sleep. When mates are in a cocoon they sort of lucid dream together and can interact that way in the shared dream. Inside the cocoon the two will take on some traits from each other, for Tsu it was the ones mentioned in the last post while their mate gained scale patches and a higher metabolism than what is normal for a Mothling.
