Someone said the secret code phrase Seteth Von Fire Emblem in 1830s fashion and my half-asleep brain piloted my body to my graphics tablet to do this.

Just more paper dolls, but love that Romantic era Look™

By contrast, Catherine Macready Dickens, Kate, or Katey, was affectionately referred to as "Lucifer Box," because her temper flamed up quickly and warmly, like a tinderbox full of sulfurous lucifer matches, an inferior and volatile forerunner to the 1830s phosphorous match
