The idea is that at some point Carlo does a service for a high-ranker in Ferox and he gives our boy this little Half-Beast rabbit girl as a reward. This is around the time Carlo&#8217;s starting up his little family, so he employs her as a maid to help out around the house. She&#8217;s a bit of an Amelia Bedelia type, so precise instructions and strict supervision are necessary, but she&#8217;s a good kid. Once I&#8217;d decided on this setting, I then had to render her in NL in a maid costume. Its system has a funny idea of what qualifies as a mid-thigh-length skirt, but I don&#8217;t think too many people will be complaining.<\/p>\n<p>I also got it in my head to make Kazuya and Tatsuo from Shizuka&#8217;s story in KyaraPu as part of a plan to expand full story around her. For a moment, I thought she was the same age as Carlo, so I was going to look into the possibility of Carlo having briefly been one of the trio&#8217;s classmates around the end of high school, but I needed to see if that would&#8217;ve lined up with Vito&#8217;s retirement from the service. Before I could check that, I saw that I had Shizuka down as being 25. I could still change this, perhaps, but I haven&#8217;t committed to the idea. Having the trio come from New Queensland would make sense as the Japanese-occupied Izumo Province in Valeria would be close to there and the migration pattern would be reasonable. I was thinking about the KP story being set in a small town, and Shizuka&#8217;s family being involved in farming, so I was putting the pieces together. We could say that the reason Shizuka and Tatsuo moved down south was because there was a big contract there. (Tatsuo works in construction.) As to why Kazuya&#8217;s there, well, let&#8217;s just say I&#8217;m thinking about leaning more into the love triangle idea. Kazuya can&#8217;t quite give up on Shizuka even though he never had the courage to make a move when he had the chance. Maybe it&#8217;ll become a problem later. Anyway, there are some details I need to work out in my head a bit more, so I&#8217;ll keep you posted.<\/p>\n<p>Besides the aforementioned costume for May Ann in NL, I also did two of Batista&#8217;s costume changes from CeleKing1, the jinbei from Madam Eng&#8217;s brothel, and the ao ba ba he takes from the one farmer after rescuing Masako. I also rendered Masako in an ao ba ba to match. That at least covers the first leg of their journey in canon. I&#8217;ll have to think about how it&#8217;ll be done differently in the Alkoresh version. I made an early version of Jung-hwa as well, based more on her canonical appearance, so none of the burn scars and such yet.<\/p>\n<p>I need to prep the TWH charas for debut, but that may not get done right away. We&#8217;ll see. Stay tuned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In DA I debuted Mary Ann.
