Not sure what this little guy is but I found them on the Gulf Coast of Florida on vacation recently! I named them Wilbur :)

Lovely friend! Wilbur is a fitting name for them I think because they're RADIANT. Anyhoo they're a spotted oleander moth

I have been set on finding every rare Silco shot and those are probably my favorite ones. They are from episode one of the first season- aka Silco's introduction to the viewer. The first impression we are given of him is his profile outlined against the dimmed lights of the lab, barely making out ANY of his features. Then he walks towards Deckard with slow measured steps. Our second impression is intentionally limited to only the lower part of his face, cut precisely to the scar's edge, slowly transitioning to the full revealation of it. And then we have the shocking view of only the ruined side. Almost like they are giving us piece after piece of the puzzle, creating anticipation to put all of them together, giving us enough time to learn every single angle of his. No other character seems to be introduced in this way. This whole "luring in" aligns with the animator's words that they view Silco's personality as "seductive".
