HF! Bee I ended up doing a little sketch of after an inspiring conversation i had with @bunnihops

And my starbee sky: cotl designs which I’m pretty sure caters to no one but me <3
They danced to jingle bell rock in the boba shop
They went on a date on the tree!
This is unfortunately very delayed as I got very sick for a few days and at one point fell on the ground very dramatically for absolutely nobody to see (it was 6am) but i hope everyone is having happy holidays!^^
join me in my protective circle where we imagine a better world in which, given the event that someone has to temporarily take over for nightwing, it’s obviously tim drake in the suit.
beyond the fact that he has the skillset and a closer physique and that he’s not, to my knowledge, even up to anything right now, it would be so narratively satisfying! he was dick’s protégé! he’s currently trying to figure out his own identity and has always been both striving to be dick and also lurking in dick’s shadow! how would dick feel seeing tim put on another one of his suits and face down even more of his enemies! it would be such a good dynamic and heal so many wounds (including, on a meta level, offering the tiniest bit of redemption for dc doing ric grayson instead of putting tim in the suit the last time).
met a VERY charming lil friend yesterday who i have never (knowingly) seen before!!! 🖤💛
this is the Sequoia Pitch moth (Synanthedon sequoiae), yes, moth! these fascinating little creatures bear an incredible resemblance to members of the family Vespidae, like common paper wasps and yellowjackets, and that’s no simple coincidence!
the appearance of these moths is an example of Batesian mimicry, a type of mimicry where one species mimics the warning signals of another species, but without having the same harmful or undesirable defences.
in this case these moths look like they may give you a nasty sting, but really they’re about as harmless as a moth can be! (plus they have gorgeous slightly iridescent black-lined wings and fluffy little shrimp-like tails! absolute cuties!)
Sometimes life is harder than usual. Sometimes triggers hit you harder than you think they “should”, sometimes your emotions take control, sometimes thoughts of relapsing are stronger than others, some days are just too much.
♡ and that’s okay!! ♡
Having bad days doesn’t mean all of your progress is gone, it doesn’t mean all your work is for nothing, it doesn’t mean you’re going to be “like this” forever.
Hush, hush, it's already retreating. Don't worry, I can hear it too, but it won't bother you anymore right now. Dawn is coming soon, it's easier to escape from it during the day, isn't it? In the meantime, I'll be there.
