You were something, before you were made of Blight. Young. Foolish, perhaps. Moth, and nothing else.

Perhaps you lost something in becoming a beast. Perhaps you are nothing but better for it.

the house is established vi and tsm2 vi play a board game together who do you think is winning

The House Is Established Vi has approximately fifty seven years of experience in cheating at games and approximately zero years of experience with board games but it's very good at catching on to new things and will be DELIGHTED to play something new after a century of almost nothing being new so it mostly depends on how quickly tsm2 Vi can catch on to its sleight of hand and start cheating back

Hello, Bug Fables fandom. Welcome to our kitchen. Today, we offer you: canned cordyceps. There are four chapters to this, and we intend to release one every three days until this work is complete. This work contains (and is practically nothing but) Leif's Request spoilers. Come read our fic.

Beastbug Leif!

Kabbu | Vi | Leif (you are here!)

Leif joins the party! As a weird octopus.

More info under the cut. Spoilers! Many a spoiler!

Leif's beast form is a cordybug. He is mostly affected by magic and psychological triggers.

Psychological triggers are traumatic experiences that often result in other responses like memory loss, identity loss... Such experience would also trigger a transformation. More often than not, after such transformation the beast bug does not transform back. Or if they do, they don't come back "right", lacking memories of past selves.

Leif is the youngest beastbug in the team as their transformation happens the latest.

Vi and Kabbu find him as usual, but over the course of the game events, as he gets more stressed and interacts with more magic, his condition worsens. Fighting the Zommoth and/or the Everlasting King is enough to trigger his transformation, which costs him his legs and one arm.

Technically, he can use cordyceps for his arm, he just covers both arms with Mothiva Branded Mittens (the most awful thing to come out of all of that).

They have a few ways of transportation:

A wheelchair, which gets upgraded later to have many cool features. Including, but not limited to, an emergency ejection.

Floating with magic ice. Also used as a cork.

Attaching themselves to one of their teammates like a leech. It's their favorite method. Fast, easy and gets them everywhere.

I love that basically everyone unanimously agreed that Muse is a girlboss with a soft side and past!Leif was a sopping wet loser of a cat (moth)

Do you think current got their sass and coolness✨ from his wife, that “Leif” is everything he loved about Muse and more? What he admired about her? As well as the things that made Muse love him back?

Enjoying my day then suddenly I get reminded of Leifmuse and feel the urge to run around and throw things
