On a tangential point, I completely didn’t take notice of the Handmaid’s bedsheets with hearts, spades and larva on them. I love it.

Makes you wonder, though, like, did Scratch make / have that made for her? (He definitely has a gang member who’d be capable of making it). Or did he acquire it from the homeworld? Because obviously trolls as a society don’t have bedblankets, but you’d think Scratch would have had something made with a more Felt theme to it. Though of course, it’s possible Scratch wanted her raised around things that would make her more familiar with the Alternian world she’d have to deal with later on in life.

Though that possibility just makes me wonder about the decking out of her room in general. Why’s it so… fancy? Why’s it such an obvious fuchsia colour? Look at the room it was obviously based off;

Obviously Ms. Megido’s stuff isn’t just a darker version of Ms. Lalonde’s, but it’s not a Megido colour either. Look at the two compared here (rust atop and the upholstery colour below);

I’m honestly beginning to think that, obviously having had another sign painted onto the head of the bed, at least some of this stuff was repurposed from an earlier girl-protege of Scratch’s, who later went on to become a handmaiden of the Lord…
