#fiadh

I decided to change somethings about Fiadh. which luckily didn't cause too much chaos, and I was able to just add a handful of edits to her reference instead of having to redo it.

Tw undercut for doll nudity.

It makes a temporary Nest by the comb, only leaving to eat and check in with its other children and charges.

Clix is nodding off late during the rest-cycle, when clix hears a tiny buzz. A little squeak, a soft crack.

The communal Nest is stuffed full of soft things, of warm things. Niniane and the three new babies are wrapped up in the softest blankets known to bug. Trinn curls around them all, purring and covering their little baby bodies with its own. Any intruders will have to go through it first.

Mell is the fluffiest of the three, its downy fur sticking up out of the blanket it's wrapped in. The neck and back are especially fuzzy with this. The little noi has brown fluff in the segments of its joints, giving it an awkward contrast with its steel-metallic shell. Black and golden bands hug the hatchling's vent slits and taper off, not quite meeting in the middle like a bee or wasp's might, but enough to give the impression.

Numina's fluff is much less in volume than Mell's, and only wraps around its neck and between the shoulders, but its antennae are large and downy. Its shell is a shade of gold lighter than clax own. It shares the tapered stripes with Mell, black stripes and black fluff contrasting sharply with the lighter gold of its metal. Numina huffs in its sleep...and nuzzles into Niniane's side.

Fiadh is almost completely silver, if not for the noi's markings. Gold spiderwebs like broken-repaired porcelain across its metal shell. Among clax children, this one has the longest pair of wings - more waspish than bee, in stark contrast to Mell's bee-like wings and Numina's mix.

It was hard for clix to sleep that night. Excitement and dread war in its Silk. Sentlings, tucked away in the Nest...
