I've been holding onto these for a bit, because I felt like the most recent part provides some context and wanted to wait for that.
But now I can share these. :3

I saw a velvet mite today! these big mites go through a bizarre series of growth stages before ending up as predatory mobile plush cushions.

Will baby mews have a similar reaction to their other weaknesses like ghost and bug types? Or is it just the dark type because the type is immune to psychic moves?
No, it won't be the same.
In my world, the Dark-Psychic relationship is unique even among immune types. The other immune types are only elementally immune, but for Psychics, they can't interact with the mind in the same way they're used to with non-Dark type beings.
Psychics--Or at least Mews, if not all Psychics--are always sensing the minds of others. Not reading it, necessarily, but they're always unconsciously getting certain info from them. Like emotions or whatnot.
But Dark types have a sort of barrier keeping that info from them.
It's not so much the advantage that bothers the mittens; It's that they're meeting a being that disrupts what was their normal, and they didn't understand why. (It might still take them a bit to grasp, I'm sure.)

this cockroach (recently molted, not yet hardened) though pleasantly dopey-looking isn’t the focus of this post—they’re living on him.

meet Androlaelaps schaeferi, the hissing cockroach mite. when Gromphadorhina spp. were brought into captivity decades ago, their commensal mites came with them. the mites amble around the roach’s body, living off of food scraps and other debris, which actually helps keep their host healthy and clean.

when their ride is disturbed, the little passengers rush to a safe nook, often in the “neck” region where they’re well protected. even when their host dies, the mites are hesitant to leave the only home they’ve known.
