       ❝ I  enjoy  Iago  deeply.  I  kan  not  wait  until  they  give  birth.  My  preparations  for  welkoming  the  new  youngling  have  been  nothing  but  sukcesfull.  I  started  growing  some  skallions,  should  it  start  teething.  There  is  so  much  to  learn  about  human  reproduktion,  it  truly  is  exciting.  They  are  a  joy  to  be  around   &   will  make  a  wonderful  parent.  ❞

       An alarmingly understanding hum passed the Thri-kreen's lips   —     still occupied with the fleshy, gristly remains of Puck's sibling's unfortunate suitors, as he was learning now. Munch munch munch. So that is how people taste like. Quite bland, not as aromatic as venison, Cricket took note of.

     ❝ In my kulture, the suited themselves take kare of that matter. However, only after the mating process   —   after their purpose is fulfilled. That must make them very lucky people, if they found their end after having suksessfully fertilized your sibling. ❞     Cricket was damn sure they got through with their intention. Just a little curious why Puck was the one discarding them  &  not Iago themselves. A true privilege to die such death  &  function as nutrition on top of it.

@swarmcall ⸻ continued from here.

he's thinking of hanging them up somewhere in camp. as a warning. perhaps by the campfire, in the middle of it all, so everyone can see & know.

that may raise questions . . . his eyebrows furrow. maybe i'll make weapons out of them instead. use them against other potential ���

cricket's question snaps him out of his machinations. an uncommonly wicked grin stretches across his normally-docile face before his attention returns to the bones.

he wipes at his mouth, then. should've checked if there were remnants left before sitting down. ❝ ah, this would be what's left of one of iago's former suitors. ❞

a fitting demise, he thinks, for them to be fly fodder now.

I have too little Cricket art, so, as a treat, a reupload from my rp blog, with the princess ♥

[fvngus]

I love that little guy and I draw him not often enough...

         ❝ Pukk  always  karries  the  tastiest  bone  marrow  with  himself.  I  enjoy  krawling  in  his  pokket   &   have  something  the  others  call  a  little  snack.  I  wonder  why  not  everyone  has  bones  in  their  bags.  Anyway,  the  pale  one  is  very  kind   &   understanding,  more  than  the  rest  of  our  party. ❞

HI CRICKET HAPPY BIRTHDAY LIL BUDDY are you doing anything special to celebrate? :3

   𝙲𝚁𝙸𝙲𝙺𝙴𝚃'𝚂  𝙱𝙸𝚁𝚃𝙷𝙳𝙰𝚈 .   ────────────────────────

      Antennas twitch in irritated fashion.      Puck could be so loud, so obnoxious. Did he not notice the Thri-Kreen was busy doing . . . whatever Cricket does on a daily basis   ?   Still, regarding the pale one   —   A subtle tilt of head after he turned around  &  away from his makeshift desk, all sorts of things cluttered the surface. Vials, notes, samples of both flora  &  fauna.

     ❝ Pukk. What is it   ? ❞     Then, the half-insect recalled the ranger's words. Birthday. He heard that term around camp before   —   Last time, their group was talking about the vampire's one. Had something to do with reproduction. Cricket, naturally, sated his hunger for knowledge  &  let the party's wizard enlighten him.

But could he call himself birthed   ?

  His tribe told him he hatched like the other Thri-Kreen from an egg.

     ❝ I don't understand your desire to celebrate the day someone hatched, or getting pushed out of someone's parturient kanal, for the matter. Therefore, no, I have not planned anything . . . special. I think I've overheard the sharp-fanged one he would celebrate his birthday, if you seek an exkuse to intoxikate your body   ? ❞     His voice was not dismissive or impolite. Rather, trying to help ( or trying to get him to walk away so he could be alone again ).

hands him a lil rock. it is a very cool rock.

      The offering was accepted.      It took him a second of inspection to realize it was an ordinary rock  &  not a gem, or egg, or anything remotely interesting. Yet, still a very decent rock. Pretty. Very smooth with subtle specks painting its surface.

     ❝ Thank you for this splendid mineral. ❞     What will he do with it now   ?   Maybe use it as a weight, so his notes won't fly away on a windy day. Yes, that sounds good.

IDK why both my warlocks wanted to take their chance at bingo w/ Cricket. But here's another one for him

(~moreinterestingtimes)

@moreinterestingtimes

      Now, that one doesn't want to kill an insect.     A good start. They could work on the whole . . . nerd stuff, in time. His own interest only came later in his life.

The disinterest in science tossed aside momentarily, Antennas twitch, vibrate for a split second when he was done reading the bingo sheet.

He liked that one more.

     ❝ How not-so-open-minded are we talking about, eksaktly   ? ❞     Just . . . an innocent question. A bug guy should be allowed to ask, no  ?

🕸 Cricket is literally a bug, I won't tag insect/bug tw on here, so please make sure you are fine with mentions and reblogs of insects of any kind !

🕸 Mun ≠ Muse ; I think that much is clear. Any statements that come up ic are not specifically my own. 🕸 No God modding ; Small liberties like change of scene and such are totally fine and do not have to be discussed. You can hurt him, shove him or whatever, just keep in mind that my muse will react accordingly. Do not assume reactions and write my muses actions. 🕸 Feel free to continue asks! I will be the last one turning one down. ♥ 🕸 You can always message me for plotting or headcanons if we are mutuals. ; However, I prefer if things play out naturally. We do not necesarrily have to plot out every thread till the end. I am more than happy writing and see how things develop. 🕸 You can always send a starter, no need to ask! ; Again, if we are mutuals. Same goes for sending me rp prompts to my inbox, memes or whatnot. You are also free to tag me in dashgames! 🕸 OC - and Tav friendly of course. Just be sure to have a little bit of information ready and visible on your blog so I can look it up before we interact. We stan OCs in this household. 🕸 Post trimming. ; I use XKit Rewritten to trim my posts. It is not a MUST but I would be thankful if you have a way to trim your posts. Just to keep it nice and clean on the dash. Other than that, I use the usual small text, cursive and bold text edits. You do not have to match my writing or editing style, as soon as everything is nicely readable. 🕸 I won’t write NSFW with minors. Mun or muse. Please make sure to have the age somewhere on your blog before interacting. If smut happens, it will be tagged and under 'keep reading'. 🕸 Shipping: I am a huge sucker for ships. If said thing happens, keep in mind Cricket is multiship, means that every ship takes place in its own universe. I do have to see chemistry between muses tho, let it be through rp or just nerding about them. 🕸 No racism, homophobia, transphobia and so on. Don’t be an ass. I can definitely tolerate ic biased opinions on that in threads, just don't bring it into the real world.
