To that one person in my asks who said they also like Black Beetle, idk if you’ll see this but you inspired me to post more, I thought it was just me so I didn’t really bother posting him, but now I know I’m not just posting into the wind <3

Btw this was supposed to be a warmup but I decided to finish it (I figured out how to paint clouds)

Found her fell on ground so I put her on a tree. She is very huge and her legs are very strong!

(F) Giant Stag Beetle (Serrognathus titanus ssp. castanicolor)

Possibly the biggest bug I’ve ever held. Could be a female rhinoceros beetle since I’ve seen (and held) one of those in the area before but from a different species. I’ve never seen a male tho.

She flew away later that night.

My love, might I request headcanons for my most beloved stupid Black Beetle. He is not on your list but you love me (hopefully) and I may be his sole fan. My most betrothed it will bring me immense joy.

PS I love you pookie shmookie mwah mwah xoxo I hope you recover from that time I hit you in the head with a cast iron pan <3

Black Beetle Headcanons

(Only for you pookie bear, I will write headcanons for your boy.)

————————————————————

[General Headcanons]

Probably over seven feet tall, I’m just getting that out there, he likely has sharp teeth as well.

If he liked anything about Earth, I feel like it would be music, specifically jazz or old timey music, he just gives off those vibes. That or metal.

The moment any Reach stepped onto Earth they immediately had a sneeze attack because they are not used to the pollen.

I think the closest thing you could possibly compare their species to, is a reptile, I don’t know why, it just feels the most accurate. (Or even a reptile-bug mix)

I think the Reach in general have slit pupils like cats instead of circle pupils.

Black Beetle has two expressions, angry and angrier. Or on the rare occasion, very very smug.

Black Beetle is a warrior so he has a very strict schedule and he won’t deviate from his routine for anything that isn’t a threat. He’s very meticulous with his training and work, he makes sure he’s doing everything with the intent of it being perfect.

He probably doesn’t really like Ambassador (even before the final episodes of season two) because he finds him incredibly incompetent but he had no proof so he needed to wait before taking away his title.

If there’s any Reach he actually likes, it's the Scientist, and that’s only because he actually knows she’s intelligent and is thinking about the Reach as a whole, especially when she was insisting on trying to find out why Blue Beetle’s scarab was off mode.

Black Beetle just does not show interest in anything or anyone because it’s not in his training and he is just not good at being nice.

He has a resting bitch face. That’s it.

Likely has really cold and cool skin and body temperature.

[Romantic Headcanons]

OH BOY! Now trying to romance this big fucker is a challenge for the gods.

Black Beetle doesn’t really think much about love as he’s very warrior mindset driven, so if you managed to catch his eye, you’re very lucky.

I feel like the Reach would have a sort of courtship thing, like providing the person they like with food or gifts, and he’d also partake in it.

If you didn’t know anything about their species, you’d probably be very confused when Black Beetle starts bringing you food or random trinkets he found, even if you asked him about it, I don’t think he’d explain what he’s doing, you’d have to ask Ambassador or Scientist about it, then you’d get your answer.

After that the realization that he’s trying to court you would hit you like a truck, especially if you’ve been subconsciously accepting the offerings.

It’d be a few months of this courting before he finally asks you out, and even then it’s the most blunt way possible.

A relationship with Black Beetle would definitely be interesting, he’d likely be very protective if you aren’t a Reach, like a human, though he’d likely be subtle with his protective nature.

Oddly enough, if you are smaller than him (which is likely true), he’d be very gentle with touching you in any manner due to having claws.

On his breaks or days off, he’d probably spend them resting or training, and if he’s resting, you will be laying next to him, he is actually really cool to the touch, so if you’re human then you’re like his own personal heater.

He likes when he can compare his hand size to yours, and your hair (if you have any), he finds it interesting and soft.

ABSOLUTELY HAS NO CLUE WHAT KISSES ARE. He does nuzzle though, that’s his species version of kissing, but he’ll indulge your kisses as well.

The next DC/dark horse crossover should be about blue Beetle and black beetle.

Which blue beetle? Who knows.
