Here are some of the prizes requested by the winners of the fanart contest! A vulture bee for @mantisgodsdomain and a mud dauber for @octahedral-chaos. (Note the macrovolute view colors for the vulture bee.)

Additionally, here's a commission for @waspseekinghoney of their cuckoo wasp OC, Cozy!

I have more Patreon commission art I've done. I should post that later.

[humansbgone]

Love it!!!

(I know it’s not Bug Fables-related, but here’s a short fic I wrote for Humans-B-Gone. I highly recommend that any bug lovers check out if you haven’t yet.)

@waspseekinghoney continued from here

The pair of Vessels looked up to the wasp as he approached, Up hiding their twin a bit further behind them. It was apparent they’d been injured though whether it was from this or a past injury was uncertain. They both had bad cracks on their shell that looked quite painful though they weren’t bleeding so the cracks must be old.

The little bugs didn’t reply verbally, unable to do so. Instead Up began pat themself and shake their head, trying to show they weren’t hurt. At least not badly. 

[cordyiceps]

The moth gives a little hum of curiosity at the way the wasp deflated. It hurt to see but there was little he could do without knowing the whole situation. It was hard to not feel concern over his friend given just how overworked the poor bug was. Leif didn't push for answers but did try to show he was there for the other if needed.

"We see, there is not much different in our daily life either."

Leif pauses for a moment before he finally speaks up gently, not wishing to push the wasp but wanting to know.

"Zasp, we were wondering what upset you so bad? You do not have to answer but we want to help you feel better."

@blindsidedloyalty continued from here

While not inherently obvious that the wasp was shaking Leif could still sense that something was amiss with his friend. It was mostly in the way that he'd caught the other sitting before that was the giveaway. The squeak didn't help either. Even though it was a very cute little squeak the moth didn't comment on it and instead gives the other a look of concern.

"Then we shall accompany you. Chompy must have used enough energy by now. Besides, we could use the company if you don't mind."

Said Chomper perked up at her name from where she'd been trying to look cute for Zasp, wanting pets. He chuckles at the silly antics of the little plant before looking at the other more fully and offering a hand to help him up. Leif wanted to ask outright what was bothering the wasp but he didn't ask yet. The other would likely just clam up further and race on ahead to avoid it most likely.

“It happens sometimes that someone doesn’t see the entrance... Were you distracted, perhaps?” It was clear to him that this newcomer was injured, which wasn’t a good sign. These ruins were dangerous to traverse at the best of times, after all. He’d have to get him to somewhere reasonably safe - but where?

“Bugaria?” He queried, as he offered the stranger a hand to steady himself. It didn’t seem as though the wasp knew who or what he was greeted by, so there was hardly a need to stand on ceremony. “I’m sorry, I’m not familiar with the place.”

[mothprofessorneolith]

(For @waspseekinghoney​ from x)

A potential discovery that could have importance to understanding the history of Bugaria, and Mothiva had wanted to use it to decorate her home? Some bugs... “How big are we talking about?” He asked, trying to work out whether it would be better to set up a quest for multiple teams to retrieve it, or to simply go there himself to start a dig. Maaaybe better the latter, it could be cheaper. That, and less worry that the explorers might inadvertently damage the find. “Would you be willing to escort me there, perhaps?”

[greenexplorerkabbu]

@waspseekinghoney​ continued from (x)

Truth be told, Kabbu wasn’t too bothered hearing of Mothiva’s issue, but he’d never say it out loud. Her treachery during the quest for the sapling was nigh unforgivable to him, but he had much less of an issue with Zasp. He was simply her teammate.

“Well, good to hear you’re doing alright for yourself. I’ve been doing quests around Bugaria with the rest of the team. Though truth be told I am feeling a bit...well...I suppose bored. Everything’s gotten a touch more routine since our quest for the sapling.”

[afamilycanbee]

@waspseekinghoney​​ | Continued from X

“Well, duh, of course Kabbu wouldn’t like it.” She huffs, crossing her arms across her chest. Two could play at the ‘calm and collected’ game. “That’s only if he found out, though. Leif doesn’t actually care ‘bout that sorta’ stuff. ‘Sides, if you snitch on me-...” 

Vi pauses, before slowly using her wings to elevate herself, to be eye-to-eye to Zasp. “- Then I’ll just tell EVERYONE about the Mothiva plushie that we had to return to you. That cloak really did a poor job of hiding you, F.Y.I. Sure, you fooled Kabbu, but not me and Leif, stupid. Now gimme the berries.”

[infernal-feminae-archived]

@waspseekinghoney​ said:  tap (for Agent Two from the loud and deafening starter set)

Two was abruptly brought out of her thoughts from the light tap. Looking over her shoulder, her eyes widened a bit at the...wasp? Blinking owlishly, she was silently wondering if she was actually seeing what was apparently right in front of her.

@waspseekinghoney​ asked: "Well, I think that you have the wrong number." (for Drone) (waspseekinghoney)

THE ACCUSATION OF HIM BEING IN THE WRONG brings a brief scowl to Drone’s face, brows furrowing in annoyance. “HMMF, I NEVER call the wrong number- in fact I was GIVEN this number with the upmost assurance that the owner of said number could point me in the direct of the supposed ‘finest’ honey in hell.”

[cordyiceps]

@waspseekinghoney continued from here

Leif gave a hum, not surprised in the least by the answer he got. It sounded like something Mothiva would do honestly. But that did mean the wasp would get a much deserved break as well. Surely being not only an adventurer but body guard to a star was stressful. He blinked a few times at the offer of food and chuckled.

“Well, we won’t object to a snack.”

The moth sat on the other side of the table in order to eat the food offered him. It was a good thing he was almost always hungry.

[penitentluminary]

"Ugh... How did I get down here...?" (waspseekinghoney)

It wasn't uncommon for those arriving within Hallownest's borders to display some signs of a fuzzied memory, though in this case it was hard to say whether the issue was long-standing or simply short term.

Approaching the wasp cautiously, the Wyrm wondered vaguely where he had come from. "Do you need any help..?" This may not be his kingdom, for all that it was in a similarly deplorable state, but he nonetheless felt that it at least behoved him to try to extend a bit of hospitality.

"I thought it was just a weird rock..." (waspseekinghoney)

Now, while it was true that Neo knew Team Snakemouth better than Team Mothiva, that hardly meant he was going to disregard the latter. When he heard Zasp mentioning a 'weird rock', or rather something that had perhaps turned out to not be one, he couldn't help himself. Sidling over, he drew closer. "What wasn't a weird rock, may I ask?"
