I bring up my friends on stream a lot, so here's a handy sheet for my new followers / long-time watchers who still think Chips & Cisca are the same person lmao

i almost never go actively insect collecting anymore since i feel increasingly conflicted about it as i get older, but the nature of my research--trapping for forest/agricultural pests--typically results in a lot of by-catch which i feel duty bound to preserve and curate as best i can. especially the bees because they're cute as hell.

Nomia! (like- like astronomia- im sorry I'll leave...)

Neopronouns are cluster/clust/clustie/clustie/cluself (for reference, they/them would be they/them/their/theirs/themself)

I CLAIM NOMIA AS THE ARSONIST OF THE GROUP BEFORE ANYONE ELSE GETS THE EXPLOSION CHILD !!!!

Transmasc asexual

Lies about his age (shhhhh)

If cluster were given spicy foods, cluster would throw up and cry (if these aliens can cry, idk if it's possible with their biology and whatever)

Left handed! Because I can!

Fuckin' WEAK

Nomia sp. (Latreille, 1804); Halictidae

A native, solitary bee that nests in alkaline soil. An exclusive polinator of legumes, I tend to find them on Leadplant (Amorpha canescens), which loves to grow in ditches and pastures out here.

Alfalfa farmers in particular use the species Nomia melanderi to pollinate their feilds, since they're better at legumes than honeybees and can tolerate conditions honeybees can't. Some Alfalfa farmers create patches of soil with the ideal nesting conditions for this species ("Bee Beds") in order to cultivate them as polinators. They like it Moist and Salty.

Here are a few short little articles about them:

Welcome to RO.Bug blog!

My name is Szkicel and this is where I talk about my upcoming webcomic about bugs!

I will be talking about lore, the characters (spoiler free ofc), reblogging things that inspire me (insects, nature, art etc), and I will answer any questions you guys might have regarding the project :D

I’m putting synopsis and character descriptions under the cut~

I’m also tagging this post with all the key tags, so it’s easier to look up things on mobile! I’ll be adding tags as time goes on~

Enjoy your stay!

The plot

Sayta & Neska are two cockroach sisters working as bounty hunters to put some food on the table. Sometimes Neska’s best friend Artun also tags along to help them out. They all live in the remains of a human house, where a lot of other bugs built their towns and cities.

Everything seems fine, until a certain someone walks into their lives to change them forever…

The Main Characters

Other characters

In order of appearance on the picture

Roden „Rivalle” - a mysterious person operating an RBD (Robotic Body for Disabled) from an unknown location. He’s a criminal but also takes bounties to earn some money - which is why he often gets in the way of sisters’ work.

Berin - Neska’s close friend and Rasha’s work partner. He’s a fellow bounty hunter with a cheerful personality. He loves exploring and history

Lucas - Artun’s childhood friend. They lost touch when Artun moved out of their hometown, but they reunited by accident in their adulthood. He’s a pretty shy firefly, but gains more confidence around Artun. Works as an assistant for one of the detectives at a police station.

Rasha - Sayta’s ex, who has a huge beef with her after their break up. She’s another bounty hunter, working with her best friend Berin. She’s pretty calm and reasonable, but kind of loses her patience around Sayta which leads to many arguments and fights. She likes writing poetry in secret.

I used to absolutely despise the fact that ASTROLOGY IS THE PSUEDOSCIENCE. bc the suffix "ology" meant "study of," and is found in words like meteorology, biology, psychology, etc.

That was until I found out Astronomy has comes from "Astros" meaning "stars," and "nomia" meaning "law.'

Astronomy literally means "law of the stars" which is such a badass phrase.

Imagine that with other words:

Nomianomy, the law of laws

Nomianomynomia, the law of laws of laws

Or even, nomnomy, the law of "nom"

Extremely important to clarify that Nomia looks like this (only uh. nymph-ier)
