Wyrm wellbeing question

HMS puts some sort of..sealer *for better choice of words* over the Wyrms, right? Some kind of clear coat..

I've been taking Roz with me to school..I've pinned her to the inside of my sweatshirt sleeve. I noticed that a little bit of it had been coming off of her eye and black plating. Is this bad? Should I worry? Should I not take her to school? I figure her face is rubbing on my arm when I move around.

Another thing...
I noticed Roz had a scratch on her forehead. It looks like blueish stuff..I think that it's from Laochra. I'm not sure how/if I can get if off..does anyone know?

I can give a picture if people need to see it.

A water based clear varnish, yes, to protect the paint. Hmm! I had actually used a different type of sealer on that batch of Wyrms, Not cool. Hs anyone else had issues with the clear coat not holding up? Methinks I may need to go back to the old stuff.

Sounds like it. Pics would give me a better idea of what's going on. If its Laochra's ears that rubbed off on Roz, that's clay coloration. REALLY weird, since once it's cooked it's not supposed to be able to do that. We're the two of them smooshed together somewhere hot? (in a car, locker...somewhere it might have gotten really warm?)

Yeah, it's only wearing out on her black parts, as far as I could see. (plating and eyes)
I tried to get a few pictures of her with my laptop camera but the quality was really bad since our hotel room is kinda dim. (we're on a mini vacation) I'll get some better ones when I get home tomorrow.

I can't really recall a specific moment when they were together close in a car..But I've heard his ears bump on her when they were laying on my bed and I moved, or holding them together. I usually snuggle them up in Kishiko and curl him up, so they're usually pretty close.

random suggestion. I have several resien asian ball jointed dolls. what we use in customization to seal in lips etc is clear nail polish. however that gives off a shiney texture. But if the lack of sealant is only on the eyes that might not be bad, since eyes are normally wet and shiny

    Is there a yellow spot on Roz's face? On the speckled part of her, I think I see a yellow blotch.

    How interesting. At least it's faint, and you can only see it when it's a close up picture. c:
