My HC why Mayday's hairstyle change like that
(I'm not believing that no one even thought that Mayday's tails looked like wicks or unlit sparklers)
(P.S. Eve, you doing it again)

Around the world today, the penumbra of the rising of the first sun of May is lined with onlookers and wellwishers, eyes on the eastern horizon to catch the first glimpse of a new season.
Because in our hearts, this is how summer returns to the northern hemisphere; this sun a baton passed in the annual relay as the south prepares for what winter may bring.
Among our number, where the hilltops flatten enough for people to trust their feet in the gloom, for over a century now morris dancers have set out in the fading dark to dance in the dawn, for the same reason we do anything: because it's what we do. That's all tradition is, after all.
And every year, alongside the bells, a passage from Terry Pratchett's Hogfather rings in my mind.
"The sun would have risen just the same, yes?"
NO.
"Oh, come on. You can't expect me to believe that. It's an astronomical fact."
THE SUN WOULD NOT HAVE RISEN.
...
"Really? Then what would have happened, pray?"
A MERE BALL OF FLAMING GAS WOULD HAVE ILLUMINATED THE WORLD.
And so, every year, follow the sound of bells and sticks, the chorus of voices singing Hal And Tow, and you'll find a bunch of knackered weirdos in the middle of nowhere in daft hats and a chill breeze, but proud of what they've done.
After all, we just made the sun rise.

Commander Mayday appreciation! He said that respect is something to be earned and he is so right. This man and his wisdom and experience is absolutely one of the underrated clones ✨ He massively paved the way for Crosshair‘s character development.
This is my 7th clone drawing and this time I tried to get a bit more the dark and glowy atmosphere of the scene. What do you think about it? Let me know! 🫶🏼

"Wake up, father. I sense a disturbance in the backyard."
But seriously, this little snugbug is what, almost a year old, and she has the early spider-sense awareness down already? She is going to be quite the hero once she gets older, like in the comics.
