yesterday i noticed that in one of the swatchlings' bits of dialogue, they mention that the mansion used to be a home for upper-class citizens:
which to me suggests that that's no longer the purpose of the mansion, and that made me think of the possibility of swatch and the swatchlings being in the mansion before queen*. the same swatchling was definitely around at the time it Was for upper-class citizens since they also mention spamton and his habits when he still lived there
i guess they were all still butlers, but for many darkners rather than just queen. the rooms are now used for lightners instead of darkners now that it's been repurposed. i feel like that's probably the silver lining for swatch and the swatchlings despite having to now take orders from queen, since they're all very dedicated to their role as darkners
cap'n also chimes in with "until queen came around" when scc talks about themselves, which i think is a decent confirmation that queen wasn't always around in cyber world generally speaking either
*it also suggests that all of the upper-class citizens who once lived there had to be evicted at some point, which would make more sense as to how any of the addisons knew what day spamton was getting evicted since it may have made the news
Swatch hatched Miro and Simmitri from one of his earliest eggs, and the child proved a challenge with their 2 mouths to feed but only one body.
With Swatchlings having a ravenous appetite as babies and the twins proving too challenging for Swatch at the time- Tasque Manager steps up to help him, taking the twins off his hands to help raise them instead.
They've since grown into disciplined young adults with a tamed appetite and an odd love for chasing Maus.
*Swatch has since mastered parenthood and has 200+ sons under his wing now.
