(I only just now realized that black widows can’t leap or jump or run as fast as other species of spiders. Soooo, uhhhh, just ignore that ability for now, she’ll have it later, but not right now.)How far are we in this fanfic? (Basically, how long has it been until the last chapter): Just a couple of months, I would estimate about the last month of spring
Some Lore about the Arachnid-demihumans species:
So of course you guys already read the “I want to be this woman” chapter, And which I’m trying to simulate the same things that would happen in twisted wonderland like how they don’t use obvious names but more like titles or what they were mostly known for. Arachne's true name will mostly not be used due to copyright issues. And she’ll go by ‘the spider women’ or ‘cursed spider’ or anything of such that has a spider in it. (Don’t worry she’ll actually appear in this story for my self-insert oc, and she’ll be more useful than just some background character.)
Obviously, by the story, the woman got cursed to be spider by the ‘spirited woman’ which is obviously Athena, which she’ll also be a big character in the arc of my character
Spoiler: (Spirited women has a child, and no she did not fuck anybody, neither will I say more about this spoiler anymore.)
Ever since the spider women got cursed by spirited women: all of her children hates the spirited woman without even knowing the slightest thing about her because her hatred towards her abuser became instinctually to the point where even someone daring say her name immediately either pisses off or make an arachnid uncomfortable. However, if someone dare mention the name towards spider women she’ll kill them off it doesn’t what type of content it has. She purely hates that woman for beating her and making her lose her baby along the way and making her the laughing stock of the history back in B.C or whatever the fuck that timeline was. (Yes I changed the story about the spider woman just a bit differently from the og. Also the version of this Arachne v. Athena is the one where Athena beat and then turned Arachne into a spider out of spite and I believe she hates spiders? Idk, I found that out in google so don’t fully trust my words or some.)
Keysha is the descent of (obviously) Arachne but also Anansi(Both African and Caribbean folklore about spiders) which is why Keysha would be Haitian rather than Greek because she has mostly similar traits to her father than her mother(Another similarity towards the creator: Most would say that I look like my father than my mother).
Unknown fact about the outer world(What the known {basically the map of twisted wonderland} world doesn't know is that the Arachnid-demihumans species owns the most dense forest part of Afterglow Savannah {This lore as to why they do} and are rather unfriendly to unwanted visitors, but they don’t kill or harm of those who live or merely confused onto why this forest is cut off, however, they still try to get their point across by simply making them pass out by venom and such, and don’t worry they are still alive.) And the forest is considered to be the most dangerous place on land due to the fact that most go missing or forget what they have seen in the forest which is restricted from visitors or civilians of Savannah (However, that sometimes doesn’t stop most dumb people).
Also the mushrooms that Keysha have been eating will cause a problem later in the story because, not only it’s a drug but it was specifically to harm harm her species only because spirited women was the one that made that shrooms and not regularly grown spiders (Yes the spirited women hates spider women just as much she hates her back.) Secondly even though it is indeed harmful for the Arachnid-demihumans species, it is considerably deadly towards any and other species that aren't Arachnid-demihumans. (It is supposed to be a slow and unsuspected death for Arachnid-demihumans which is why it’s only meant to harm Arachnid-demihumans.)—
Facts about the Arachnid-demihumans species:
The Arachnid-demihumans species has very fast Metabolism in the summertime. When it’s winter their Metabolism slows down and their body kind of goes a lot slower than their bodies in the summertime. So basically if a Arachnid-demihumans goes to colder place, they body immediately goes to a drastic change and their body becomes more fatter or chubbier than their normal body in the summertime (Yeah, I was shocked when I realized that spiders can also go to hibernation just in a different way but still almost same.)
And due to the seasons and having to adapt to it for survival means. Arachnid-demihumans species necessarily doesn’t have a “body” like humans do. They either seem chubby due to the colder seasons while they seem to have some 6 a-packs in the warmer temperatures.
Also Arachnid-demihumans species generally doesn’t have a body at all. Now what could I possibly mean by that? The Arachnid-demihumans species are invasive and parasitic species. That’ll also be further explained in later chapters because I also want some crazy ass lore or theories about my own character too. (Even if it’s just me coming up with these.)
Some smaller and non dangerous spiders are deathly afraid of birds — Ornithophobia while all Arachnid-demihumans species either hates or is scared of strigiformphobia(owls) since owls mostly represent Athena and birds are predators of spiders.—
Nicknames for people Keysha can tolerate
Seti Feyri (seven fairyflies) — Obviously the 7 seven dwarfs
Meaning: The reason why Keysha gave these 7 dwarfs this nickname instead of some bird nicknames is because Keysha sees them as prey due to their short height and obviously everything in the insect(bugs) kingdom whatever is smaller than the predator itself is seen as a prey. (Plus I had to research what the smallest bug species ever in the world and the fairy flies came first)Zwazo Montay Ble (Mountain Bluebird) / Zwazo Tèt Ble Ewazyan (Eurasian blue tit) — Obviously Neige
Meaning: It’s not because Keysha sees him as a threat. Actually it’s none of that. It’s actually supposed to be a similarity to his beauty and singing voice(That’ll later be shown in a ss) and Mountain Bluebird is mostly known as the cutest bird species yet. And the reason why I decided to give Neige another nickname was because I researched “what type of animal would Snow white be?” And I got Eurasian blue tit from the results from it. Which Zwazo Tèt Ble Ewazyan will be Neige new nickname, it just that I’m wayyyy toooo lazy to edit the part where Keysha called him a mountain bluebird back at chapter what the fuck it is.—
Summary
Chapter 4 - 9Chapter 6: Some backstory about the spider woman and Spirited women and how Keysha finally has a passion for something besides food
Chapter 7: The gang went to the mines and Keysha, being herself, ate some gems. But at least the old villager was nice enough to let Keysha work there in the meantime.
Chapter 8 - 9: They are filler stories, they are not that important, because who actually cares about filler?

Hair color (Yes, I know that I made a hair appearance. However, her hair doesn't look like a black widow type of hair, plus her hair looks too similar to Ruggie's, soooo that hair will be Keysha's hair type and not overall hair) :
