Cicada. It/its pronouns. 18. alloaro baby butch objectum. artist, writer, worldbuilder. horror and circus and insect and mannequin fan. weird cat thing.

This blog has a little bit of everything, mostly reblogs with original stuff thrown in too. My art/writing/etc. tag is #cicadas creations, feel free to check it out!

Spam likes and/or reblogs welcomed and appreciated here

I have bad anxiety among other things so I may not be the one to reach out first, but I don't mind DMs or asks or any other form of interaction at all! Feel free to message me or send me asks, if I don't respond its likely because I didn't see it or I saw it and forgot about it.

I trigger tag things as "cw: [thing]". Note that I don't really tag general horror (unless it features something else that needs tagged, such as gore) or bugs/insects (unless they're spiders). If you need anything tagged, please let me know and I'll fix it right away.

No set DNI because they're not super effective, I'll just block you if I don't like you. Please inform me if I reblog something from a t*rf/racist/zionist/other bigot, as I don't always know or check.

#i think i hauve covid -> things and people that i think are (meme voice) kinda hot. Some of the stuff tagged is kinda… odd. Don’t worry about it (thumbs up)

#other people’s art -> art by other people. My most used tag because I reblog a Lot of art lol

[Day 365 | Ref to Day 1]

And that's a wrap 🪻🥀

===

fhksjdkwjw ITS OVER. ITS OVERRRRR I MADE ITTTTT

Screaming and losing it. It only started to feel real as I'm posting this rn HRKSJAKSJLELH. A year... 365 pieces (probably a bit less bc I did post wips?) of desert duo... I would make a collage maybe but its prob a lot of work HJASKDHAHEHW

🫵 @vesperionnox @cherrysherin without u guys I wouldn't have been here <3 This challenge kinda became its own thing at some point, but I didn't forget where I started :D

💥💥💥 AAA I hope you guys enjoyed this challenge as much as I did!! but also WOOOOOOOOOOOOO FREEDOM. I WILL DEF STILL BE DRAWING DESERTDUO THO LOL BUT LETS FREAKING GO ONE YEARRRR

if Zoro asked Luffy 'would you still love me if I was a worm?' Luffy would be vibrating out of his skin with excitement detailing how he would take care of Zoro and build him a special little enclosure and make him little swords out of sticks so he can still achieve his dream of being the world's greatest swordsworm and feed him worm sized portions of meat and booze everyday and carry him around everywhere so they can still do everything together.

he also delightfully rambles about how he could be a worm also and they'd go on worm adventures together and make friends with all sorts of other bugs and how much fun they'd have.

edit: there's fanart for this scenario now! show it lots of love it's absolutely adorable!!!

[serainechor]

he’s thinking about beetles 🪲 !

[beanghostprincess]

This is Luffy with- With anybody, really. Any Luffy ship works. The thing is that this is Luffy.

two words. bug bag.

[systembug]

I have come to the conclusion that collecting bugs to pin is some sort of pagan ritual. I got bitten by so many mosquitos. Which is basically me sacrificing blood for parts of dead (insect) bodies. Blood for the bug gods:D

[enteragoodnamehere]

oh boy it's that time again (remaking my pinned post)

My name is Cicada, I go by they/it/any neo-pronouns, I'm 17 and white. I'm queer both in sexuality and gender, and aromantic

I have very bad anxiety + various other Brain Stuff and may not respond to asks/messages/etc. right away, or I may come off as awkward when I do. I promise it's not you lol

My media interests fluctuate constantly, currently interested in: The Magnus Archives (+ Protocol), I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream, Flight Rising, Ultrakill, Faith: The Unholy Trinity, The Amazing Digital Circus, Warrior Cats, Rain World and Rain World Downpour, TF2, Portal/Portal 2, and the Hatchetfield universe (Starkid)

non media interests include: Art (of all kinds), Music, Entomology + Insects and similar critters, Cats, Snakes and Reptiles, Biology/Animals in general, paleontology, dragons, speculative biology, various petsites, my ocs + more

I don't have a big set DNI because they aren't very effective, but know that I block liberally and I WILL block you if you're any variety of bigot, if you're any sort of queer exclusionist (ie anti neopronouns, anti asexual/aromantic people, against bi lesbians/gays), or if you only post NSFW and other sorts of things like that

Other places to find me:

Flight Rising | AO3 | Toyhouse (major wip) | Artfight (major wip)

I also have a Discord but I'm not comfortable giving it out to people unless you're a mutual or we've talked before. Feel free to ask for it if you fall into either of those :>

Tags will be below the cut:

All potentially triggering things will be tagged as #cw [item] . If you ever need something tagged, please let me know and I'll fix it asap

#cicada screams > textpost tag

#cicadas creations > my art and maybe eventually writing tag

#fav > my favorite posts/posts I really like :)

#[name] posting > tags meant for specific characters from things I like. I tend to get really attached to one or a small amount of characters whenever I get Into something lol. May include fanart (mine and other people's), ramblings, or things that remind me of them

#oc: [name] > tags for my ocs, if I ever post them lol

#dragon: [name] > like my oc tag but specifically for my flight rising dragons

#[fandom] ocs > for fandoms like rainworld or warrior cats where people make a lot of ocs. Includes mostly other people's but may include mine too

#various beasts tag > my general animal tag (excluding cats/bugs/snakes/dragons/dinosaurs + prehistoric life, which each have their own tags)

The rest are pretty self explanatory I think. Thank you for reading this far :] have a blinkie I made:

[catsconflictscopicsandchamomile]

The common hc that Sam is vegan/vegetarian/avoids eating meat when he can, combined with the Demon Blood Thing, heavily implies that Sam will only consume creatures that are sentient enough to be capable of Christian Sin.

What the FUCK.

[astramachina]

oh man. hold on. this means that by next year i will have not only multiple productions but an official publication which means 1) i can officially join the guild and 2) i will be qualified to begin the process for an agent and idk how i feel about the idea of trying to land two agents for separate writing endeavors. like, one is already hard enough.

[vroomian]

Well that was the most disgusting hour of my life! I need seven showers and a memory wipe!

[t4tcecilos]

made this for my graphic design class :]

[ID: A digital drawing. In the center is a dark blue clock with gold hour markers. The minute hand of the clock is a blue jay feather and the hour hand of the clock is a cardinal feather. The clock is set at 3:00. On the left of the clock is a dark blue centipede with its head facing upwards. On the right of the clock is a centipede with its head facing downwards. Underneath the clock, at the bottom of the image, are various species of mushroom colored in orange and brown. Above the clock is a half moon. The top quarter of the drawing has small yellow stars. Each top corner has a small dark blue hourglass with yellow sand. The words “Camp Here” are wrapped around the top of the clock. The words “And There” are wrapped around the bottom of the clock. All of the text is light blue, in all caps, and handwritten. The background of the drawing is a gradient going from orange at the bottom to brown at the top. //]

anything can be an angel if you love it enough...

[Image ID: A pen and ink illustration of an Atlas beetle, its shell and wings are opened wide, and its body is shaded in with parallel hatching. Handwritten serif text at the bottom of the page reads 'Be Not Afraid' in all caps.]

so what i'm putting together from osmosis and the wonderful livebloggers and the incredible arkanis english updates account is something like this

Prefeito Jota: Hello, I'd like to hire you to investigate what happened in my city/island(?)!

Bagi, who was previously "invited" to a mysterious island/city by its elected official, subsequently trapped on the mysterious island/city, investigated the deep mysterious history of the island/city, came to no conclusions, found her brother after years of searching, was separated once again from her brother, gained and lost an adopted daughter (possibly to being kidnapped by the island government, which was evil), gained and lost a demon fiancée (possibly to being dragged back to hell, so there's no way to find her), gained and lost a close demon friend to dubious circumstance (did he die for his children? is he with skeppy in the gas station?), and has had an unknown amount of time to process and/or suppress all of this: Sure! :D
