Cute friends! Especially the silverfish. And I love the snoot on the moth! It's a type of litter moth, and I think probably a plumed fan-foot, Pechipogo plumigeralis.

Bug of the Day
Got a nice blast of the flash against the white background for this discolored Renia (Renia discoloralis), it was very tempting to remove the background and replace it with something odd lol.

American Idia Moth - Idia americalis
Were it not for the camera flash, this mottled Moth would’ve been perfectly camouflaged against the bark of this tree, hidden in the shadows from the high branches. Other specimens can feature wing coloration that is more predominantly beige, white and brown, so perhaps they’d need to seek out other types of trees as hiding spots. Whatever colors they have, all the specimens I’ve cross-referenced with share similar thick triple-banding across the edge of the wings and a discoloration (similar to a spot) near the banding. Do note though that due to the similarity other Moths, the only way to truly be sure of this Moth’s specie is to examine the genitalia, and I don’t have the of time or equipment. I also wouldn’t want to harm this Moth and keep it in nature so it can enjoy its summer time among the managed wilderness. Ironically, I probably disturbed its resting as its was still mid-afternoon (towards the end of a High Park bug hunt), not close to night time when Moths like this one would normally become active.
When they become active, it’s reported that these insects gather near tree lichen, but I’m not sure that the adults eat it (I’ve read mixed findings, but will confirm in a future post). The Caterpillars definitely do however, and they also contribute to a healthy forest by eating debris such as dried leaves. Though called Litter Moths, they aren’t litter bugs at all it seems. Despite what the common name would suggest, there are many species of Idia Moth in North America beyond this one...but this one can only be found in North America. It has been dubbed the American Snout Moth as well, but that name may have fallen out of usage as it may cause confusion with the actual family of Snout Moths - Pyralidae.  As mentioned earlier, the triple banding and blotches can distinguish this Moth from similarly patterned Geometrid Moths and other Idia relatives such as the look-a-like Common Idia Moth (Idia aemula)! That’s just one example, but there are quite a few Idia Moths that appear similar to this one at a first glance, so might be better to start by ruling out the Moths that don’t look like this one if you’ve collected a specimen to identify. 
Pictures were taken on July 10, 2019 in High Park with a Samsung Galaxy S4.

I feel like my followers are like a little bug collection. Sure I have like 100 followers on instagram but my 19 here feel much more important and more personal. Also I stopped posting on instagram because that place is hell for artists.
Anyway y’all are my bugs, and I’m going to keep y’all in a little terrarium. Since There’s not many of you I’m going to give you each individual bug species to go with you. I’ll make sure their cool ones (to me atleast)

Would just like to thank all the dnd homebrew creators who came before me!
Y'all are doing so much, I've started creating homebrews and let me tell you it's SO much work and I'm so glad there were people before me who I can look to for inspiration.

Brave New World ⛰︎
i walk around my apartment complex a lot, i rely on these walks to get time outside of my little hovel and, if i can manage, outside my little head.
but sometimes my head comes along with me and heavy thoughts follow. i see squirrels, rabbits, opossums, trees, birds and bugs of all sorts. i also see piles of trashbags, two-four cars per domecile, discarded beer cans and styrofoam cups, overflowing dumpsters. hard to not get to thinking at the sight of it.
i suppose this was a way to express these conflicting emotions, of seeing remnants of a natural beauty that is being held hostage by our cold constructions and excess waste.
Mother may yet rise from her primordial bed to correct us. the trees and bugs will be here long after us, and they will consume us as we have consumed them.

on a less gloomy note drawing for these two was really fun, trying to diversify the shapes and shades of my little critters. i love how mama moth came out, i wanna try and draw “entities” and “deities” more, it weirdly enough feels like a spiritual exercise in and of itself if that makes sense? anyway, thanks for reading and looking :)

##my wife, my wife, my wife, my wife
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
y!vox x ex!reader / alastor x reader also because he stole vox’s bitch if you squint
part ii
synopsis: from this ask / reader is vox’s ex and he’s not too keen of the separation — you were supposed to come back to him! not run around with his rival and get rid of his only access of looking after you (removing any/all electronics from your life)
beware: DARK THEMES / heavy yandere aspects, obsession (vox’s end), territorial aspects, manipulation, implications of a toxic relationship / let me know if i missed anything!
Tumblr media
he’s been watching you. what, did you think you could just leave? no, that will not do for him! you’re his wife, his lover, his other half that he cannot live without! you brought him fame and so much fortune with just your pretty face.
through the camera of your phone, the security cameras that litter hell, he’s been keeping an eye on you. however, you know that.
after a year of maintaining a relationship with one of hells overlords, you finally snapped and broke it off. the press were eating it right up. “y/n, can you tell us why you and vox are no more?” “y/n, who broke it off first?” “y/n, is there a chance you’ll both get together again?” you laughed at the last question
there was only one place in all of hell to hide — a place where no electronic bothered to exist — hazbin hotel
you came tired. hair a mess and a fluffed robe over your shoulders. “i’m begging of you, please take me in, i prefer learning some shit redemption arc than to deal with a crazy ex.” you cried. of course charlie said yes.
since then, vox has been searching for you:
“i swear to FUCK — !! “ vox heaved. when valentino walked in, the tv host seemed to pause on his theatrics. “she couldn’t have gone far.”
“face it, at this rate she’s done with you.” the moth insisted while getting comfortable on the couch.
but those words didn’t sit right with vox. the multiple screens in front of him flicked through different channels, eager just to find a clue of your whereabouts.
to say vox was pissed when finding out where you were was an understatement. a camera zooming in on the sight of you having some fresh air — right outside that stupid hotel
picking at a daisy, someone else came into the frame. alastor knelt to your side with a cup of tea, or so he assumed, sitting down next to you while basking underneath the stars. vox couldn’t hear any audio since the radio demon seemed to mess up the frequency, but he could see that familiar smile that pulled at your lips
you used to smile at him just like that
in less than a day, vox came straight to the hotel. demanding for you to come out. come on home! you both can work through it! this is just another bump in the road, there’s no need to hide!
from the balcony, your gaze settles on vox down below. you almost feel sorrowful and your heart begins to ache. sometimes you miss him, and sometimes you miss the comfort of his arms. he was a hurricane just as he was a summers day, and that was the man you fell in love with. you knew his love was sick, but that was expected from demons… right? not his though, it was far too gone to be considered a daydream.
“doll, we were meant to be!” vox pleaded, his gaze never leaving yours.
you never answered to his pleas.
“it’s that fucking radio demon, right!?” vox accused. here comes a tantrum.
you turned to face away.
“please, we were going to be overlords — together!” back to broken promises you were unsure if it were true.
a yandere is someone who is in love with you, and that’s a dream come true for anyone who wishes for love. but god, do you wish it wasn’t you.
vox never stopped sending gifts to the hotel after that. nor has he stopped coming by to the building just to try and convince you to leave. his heart is aching, and only you are his medicine.

SPEAKING OF COOL BUGS. I saw so many little Friends today while I was at work!!!! Look at all these fellas!

The last one is a dead moth I found yesterday in the Janitor's Closet, but the rest of 'em are alive and well, regardless of how much they bit me while I took photos 😅 In my defense, many of these are the first of their kind I've seen this year because it's been winter. I was especially happy to see the fat centipede! What a beauty! So healthy after a long and dry winter!
Not pictured: a LOT of earthworms and various ladybugs

Tw: dubcon, yandere
Very rough idea. But think think THINK. A really rich reader who manages to catch yandere!boothill's eye.
You were fine with him hanging around you so often until he just kept.. finding you. In the weirdest and shadiest places ever. Maybe you'd catch a glance of him at a party you know damn well he shouldn't be at. Maybe even in a huge family friend gathering you see him in the corner of your eye. At luxury, brand stores late at night that are open just for you. You see him places where he shouldn't be.
And of course, you hire bodyguards. Or maybe your parents do that for you. And it doesn't work. He manages to sift his way in closer, even. Your bodyguards are blissfully unaware outside your room's door all the while Boothill eyes you up and down from where you stand at your drawer – crushed perfume bottle littering your expensive nightgown in glass and aroma. Boothill pities the pretty little scent. You know its a lie.
You're desperate, so begrudgingly so. You pack your things, you move and move and move, never staying in one place for too long. You hire expensive mercenaries and hitmen, all of which end up at your doorstep. It doesn't help the fact Boothill's taken a liking to sending their hearts in a gift box. You think the shiny bullet still lodged into it was the worst part.
And he catches up. All of them die one by one, like moths drawn to a flame, incineration cast upon them. He corners you in the dark alleyway – far from where you would have been long ago. There's blood on his shoes and gunpowder in his teeth. You can taste it from how hard his lips crash into yours.
