Hurray, bugs are back. I finished a new chapter of The Howler a few days ago, but the thread was dead, so here it is.

It's all going to Nithry's head.

>>80912824
Nice, been a minute. Fun to watch Nithry guide Eigen like that and get over his fear of him, but this sort of almost arrogance from being able to order him around is sure to cause problems later, especially when someone else with the ability to communicate with Eigen to a greater degree comes along. Wonder if the fact that the limpers have venom will have any effect given Eigen stepped on what, though I suppose whether it actually managed to do anything or was just stepped on is a bit vague. Also, you probably meant to put "for my tarsi (to) scream in agony" near the start.

I don't think a ton of people have it all figured out, especially in volatile times like this, some people just have different ways of handling life and different capacities to tolerate what life gives them. No shame in not knowing what lives ahead for you, can only try to make sure everything works out as best as you can make it and not be afraid to ask for help in that matter if necessary, which may be more often than you think. Also, nice bee

It wasn't intentional because Zippy was a friend's OC but she basically became mine over time. Really just some justification as to why I have two similar looking bee characters now.
>Is the lost loved one the eldest sibling or someone else?
Yeah, their older sister is dead. That's something I always had for Athena's backstory since her creation. I enjoy some sadness with my stupid animal characters.

Hmm, are the arms too thin?

Maybe it's just me but the arms and legs just seem too short for how tall the torso is, the smaller arms might be screwing with my perception of the other stuff though

Remember that since bug genitalia is on the abdomen, clothing for the abdomen would be a thing, and therefore the amount of abdomen covered might reflect how modest or lewd the bug is

Most of it would probably either just be draped or form-fitting cloth over the abdomen, so anything interesting would probably be designs on the cloth, though maybe stuff like the ruffles some dresses have could be used in the design
