garden in the void

She bites:(

anti-wasp sentiment is going to turn me into the joker. "oh i hate wasps >:(((((((( but i love bees!!!!!" L + ratio + bees are wasps + name more five species of bee + honeybees are an ecological nightmare even within their native range + the overwhelming majority of wasps are non-stinging parasitoids + the majority of insects might be non-stinging parasitoid wasps? any hymenopterologists/coleopterologists/biostatisticians know how realistic this paper is? (https://doi.org/10.1186/s12898-018-0176-x) + have you ever actually been stung by a wasp?

anyway heres a whimsical ichneumonid

a wasp sat on me on the bus today! i made a wasp friend!! the guy next to me looked at me like i was insane.

in general something people don't get is most animals that are considered scary/dangerous will not harm you if you show no intention of harming them. it's just not energy efficient. that wasp was chilling.

my moth collection

Tonight as I walked with the dog, a firefly landed on my arm...

The night is soft, delicate, like a gentle promise hanging in the air. The shadows are merely secrets, soft things, a reminder of safety, how quiet fills up all the empty spaces, waiting, waiting, waiting— but what for?

In the distance, a glimmer, a small spark of joy, a gesture between night and something more, a light so infinite in its courage, so true to itself, only knowing what it knows, which is to say, everything.

It comes closer, here now, a bit of dazzling sweetness, recognition of how we find each other in the dark, how hope has many hands, how love is the strongest spellwork, how there’s nothing to be afraid of, but if you are, I am right here.

After the flood, the butterflies of Mesopotamia flourish, and come to perch on a thoughtful demon.

I’d like to know in what terrifying alternate universe that thing is considered a horse.

Calm down, it’s a toy clearly. Horses are much bigger.

#Swordtember Day 3: Rogue

Since Rogues are supposed to be stealthy and have a few tricks up their sleeves, I thought a wasp (which are sneaky little creatures) dagger with a compartment for a paralysis liquid would be a cool idea for this prompt 🗡️
