a thought that struck me: sanji with an s/o who's devil fruit is insect related... itd be so funny. sanji's leaning in for a kiss then a spider crawls out of the reader's mouth and he shrieks in horror. reader tries to get him to like insects, a butterfly on their finger and he's just. "sorry babe i love with all your heart but i CAN'T." he once called insects gross and it hurt the reader's feelings.. now sanji's holding a beetle in his hand with a happy reader after he apologized (he's doing his best not to throw the beetle out of fear)
WAIT I JUST NOTICED THIS ASK NOW???? i will literally set fire to tumblr for not giving me a notif for this wtf
and YES???? HKSDHSK like sanji's SO in love with the less insect-y part of them that he doesn't pull away from the insect part of them, but is also crying every time he's reminded his s/o has bug related powers. trying to get him used to bugs by making him hold different bugs and talk to them as if he were their friends + him being unable to refuse because he's so head over heels for you KDJFLSK... show him the cute bugs first so he can get used to it!! like ladybugs but i am also scared to death of butterflies so i know what it's like 😭😭

bug of the day (march 8 2023)
The halmus chalybeus or its common name steelblue ladybird is apart of the Coccinellidae family. Steelblue ladybirds are native to Australia. It has a rounded appearance with an iridescent blue/green colour. Larva of ladybirds are actually bigger than their adult form being 6mm as a larva and 4mm as a adult.
They are predators because of this they were purposely introduced to New Zealand as a way to control harmful pests such as Citrus Red Mites who damage leafs. But this introduction hasnt been the best as there are many species who are not evolved to counter this kind of predator.
For more info on this bug please look at the following media B)
