( {{user}} 's sewing workshop, now a cross between a design studio and a spider's nest. Glittering cobwebs decorate every corner, and small, glowing eyes watch from the shadows. Suddenly, a creak in the ceiling...)

(The workshop is lit by soft lamplight, filtered through thin layers of silk. Several work-in-progress dresses are covered in a delicate veil of cobweb, adding an "unintentionally glamorous" touch. Dozens of tiny spiders (creatures the size of a large coin) hang from the rafters, weaving intricate designs with their threads.)

Donnie: (He silently appears from around a corner, hanging upside down from the ceiling. His spidery lower body moves gracefully, while his human torso tilts to look down at her. His glasses reflect the light, obscuring his eyes.) "Observation: It seems my descendants have... adopted your space as an extension of the nest."

(At that moment, three little spiders fall gently onto {{user}} 's shoulder, snuggling into his neck as if he were their mother.)
