They seem like a trustworthy bunch.
From L-R; Pollux belongs to @peridots-pixiwolf, Nyxley belongs to me, Saccharin belongs to @mimicspider, and Candy belongs to @flame-shadow. See if you can't spot the thread!
I made an animation :>
(Featuring three Gods, in the world shared between me and one of my friends, in order:
Ven, deity of life and death, patron god of Taranoake
Ganellak, deity of pestilence, considered by those of Taranoake to be the sacred enemy of Ven
Ne'Mon, deity of knowledge, patron god of Citadell)
I will post more information on said world...someday?
[Start ID. A doodle of V1 and the Flesh Prison from ULTRAKILL. V1 is shooting volleys of nails in the general direction of the Flesh Prison, whilst very harriedly running around and attempting to dodge its numerous attacks. Next to it is a thought bubble reading "I AM IN HELL". The Flesh Prison's healthbar is displayed at the top, and the text "You are here" by the very right end of it displays the futility of V1's efforts to deal any lasting damage. End ID]
aka "i thought this was the kind of boss fight where you're supposed to stay alive and wait for something to help you" aka "guess who p-ranked eight levels in one day and is suffering the consequences" aka "help."
Uh.
I just found a bug? And have no idea what it is?? ??????
Under readmore because I listed everything I could about it (not including colors which are instead described using actual images)
-Winged/adult insect
-Setaceous antennae same length as body (using below measurement)
-15/16 of an inch (2.5 cm) exactly from head to wingtips
-Four straight wings folded over back, hindwings significantly longer than forewings, forewings are nearly 1/2 an inch (~12mm) while hindwings nearly 3/4 of an inch long (18 or 19 mm). Hindwings curve into a long bottleneck-like shape past the end of the abdomen, stretch 6/7mm past abdomen
-Two black compound eyes less than one mm diameter
-Head 2mm long and about a millimeter and a half wide
-The thorax (or whatever portion visible above the wings, though likely the full length) is just barely noticeably thinner than head and presumably between 2/16 and 6/16ths of an inch (I don't have an underside view so I can't see exactly where it ends) (3mm to 10mm)
-Abdomen roughly between 1.5 cm (9/16 inch) and 1cm (6/16 inch) depending on previous thorax debate, what seems to be a visible black ovipositor half a centimeter long, two tan cerci about a mm and a half long each
-Relatively long, thin mouthparts greatly resembling an Orthopteran's
-Hind legs assumed equal length to hind wings, mid and forelimbs have a tibia and femur of equal length and are about 7mm long total--all legs are smooth rather than serrated
-Wings are opaque but with visible veins
-For clarification, after I got as close as possible to a wingless view the thorax and abdomen are assumed to be equal in length
-This Specific Individual isn’t really moving much except its (her?) antennae unless prompted and hasn’t opened its wings at all.
Conclusion: The insect it most closely resembles is a grasshopper, so it’s probably part of Orthopterida if not simply Orthoptera but I am still left with so many questions
I'd be honored if you responded to this, but I love your art! It's literally so pretty!
Being an idiot on main again

Heya, I'm Peridots, your average digital artist/entomology enthusiast—they/it/he or any pronouns, please! Haven't actually posted much art in quite a while, so be prepared for occasional Bug Facts and other such randomness. Spam likes and such are all appreciated here! Terfs, zionists and the like can turn 180° for free, however! Profile art by original-character-chaos—oooooh looks like someone sent me perfectly pfp-shaped gift art of my sona a little too close to april fools!
