Added DiffLines:
* When introduced, Corpse Witch seems like a DeathBringerTheAdorable counterpart to [[FluffyTheTerrible Bubbles]], with a cutesy pink chassis and a simple line-and-two-dots face. Bubbles' retelling of going to CW for help with her memories shows how unintentionally horrifying that "cutesy" chassis and [[TheBlank mostly featureless face]] actually are, with CW obscured by shadow and sporting GlowingEyesOfDoom in [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3377 one strip]], and the [[https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3378 next strip]] shows CW and the encryption key to Bubbles' memories, with her face just far enough in frame to show a single eye and the edge of a [[TheUnSmile predatory smile]].
