Silly little guy for @missterious-figure's Swamp Things AU!

They use all pronouns, they a silly guy :D just a nervous, paranoid anxious bby

Probs won't use them in the roleplay cause I am way too nervous and or shy- But I got 2 more OC's on the way based on the AU! (Flit is friends with Ripple too, my friend's OC for the roleplay/AU :D)

(Fun fact: The reason his antenna's are so weird and funky is 'cause he pulls on them due to his anxiety-)

[crumpet-doodles]

@missterious-figure, it is I, the person who might have asked an unnecessary amount of questions about making ocs. I probably won't be role-playing with 'em much (because I'm not really good at it jsjzksjs-) but I'll try :] soon. I swear-

ANYWAYS

Boy is it fun to completely disregard insect anatomy! (I will never forgive myself for this act of treason I have committed.)

The reason I put so much effort into this ref is because... I'm gonna probably use them for one of my own AUs (that I probably won't post. Like ever.) based on this poem about bugs I wrote at 1 am.

Yeah.

Anyways me ranting like a madman under the cut

LOOK I KNOW THE ANATOMY IS ATROCIOUS BUT I WAS HAVING TOO MUCH FUN OKA-💥💥💥

No teeth, toungue, 4 legs instead of 4 arms, and smaller mandible would have been more accurate, but... sue me. It's a fantasy world. The insects are sentient.

Jitter had their leg... kinda ripped off (I'm making their lore up as I go) so now they use a prosthetic made from a twig, vines, and some honeycomb. They travel a lot, so they have a stupid amount of wares they enjoy trading and selling.

Their bag is made from twine and spider silk, since they're friends with a spider (AGAIN MOST OF THIS IS BASED OFF THE CRACKPOEM I WROTE JUST GO WITH IT) who helped them make it. Oh yeah, they also have a sister. Yeah.

They're pretty chill.

Also cat mouth :3

I actually spent a long time on this and I'm proud of it haha-

Poison Maple

-----

In a swamp, there was a Rosy Maple Moth creature sitting and leaning on a brick wall, talking to something or someone. The moth had blue skin with purple splotches around her face, a bit of green on the tips of her fingers and ears, a fluffy collar that was yellow and pink, light pink hair that reached her mid back with matching wings and a fluffy tail as well. She wore a red crop top with a brown corset with the sides having some holes in them, her pants being dark brown and her thigh high boots being black. Her eyes were blood red, the irises a white color and her antennas red and transparent.

"People keep asking 'Oh, but why ingest poison? It's sooooo bad for you, it could kill you!' I know that, you think I just started eating poison right off the bat? No! I took it little by little! It tasted so good but eating more than I could handle hurt my stomach, it was sooooo annoying!" The Rosy Maple Moth complained to the creature behind the wall, who was watching through the hole.

"That truly sounds frustrating... What did you do with those who asked, hmm?" The voice behind the wall asked.

"I ate them! I didn't want to hear their voices anymore, so annoying! They didn't even taste that good! No poison or venom, nothing!" The bloody moth huffed as she crossed her arms, her fur getting ruffled in her annoyance.

"Do tell, just HOW did you become so obsessed with poison?" The voice, who belonged to a spider creature, asked.

"It started with a mushroom... A simple, inconspicuous mushroom. I ate it. I got high, like, sooooo high! And when I woke up, I felt pretty crappy. But the kick that mushroom had... it was exhilirating! I felt excited, so alive!" Gin, the moth, exclaimed as her wings flapped at the memory. "Back when I was a harmless moth, I was so shy... SO scared to take the risk of anything... But after that mushroom, I saw there was so much to the world, so many things that could make me feel alive, I had to find more!"

"Prefer the you that you are now I assume?" The spider chuckled.

"Of course I do. I am not afraid anymore! I am not a weak moth anymore! Others fear ME now!" The moth said, her eyes widening as her mouth turned into a wide, sharp smile, drooling a bit as she looked crazed.

"Ahhh, bringing others fear really is the best feeling~" The spider, Eclipse, said, grinning behind the wall.

"Truly... I'm getting hungry." Gin said as her fur got ruffled up.

"Do bring something for me for when you hunt, sugarfly..." Eclipse said.

"Of course!" The moth said as she stood up before flying off to hunt.

The spider smiled behind his prison. How fun to have a fellow maniac like himself around...

I wanted to make it longer but this all I could come up with!

Swamp Things AU belongs to @missterious-figure! I tried my best to write Eclipse as accurate as possible, I apologize if it ain't!

“ family “

a kind-of wip that i don’t really like but i spent a good bit of time on it and it’s been sitting and brewing for a while so why not post it?

anyways the context for this’ll be below the cut!

so, as kids, the turtles loved wandering. splinter never wanted them to get lost, so he came up with an idea to paint little clues back to the lair. red would mean take a right, green would mean take a left. if painted side-by-side/together, it’d mean continue forwards.

the babies are with him here because he wanted to lodge it into their little brains so they’d be able to remember.

and then again,, sometimes the sewers aren’t always completely empty.

Some Swamp Things au doodles

[ferret-who-likes-robots]

When they fuckin get you

I arrive again with another drawing! This time, fanart for @missterious-figure's swamp things au!!

[inittosinit]

Ripple, a water strider oc for @missterious-figure ’s swamp things au [please check out them and the au]

While doing this, I did some research on water striders and found out that they have a really fascinating (and a tad disturbing) strategy for mating. Female water striders have a genital shield so basically they can stop any sexual advances from males if they don’t want to pair with the one trying to initiate— however, males figured out how to get around that. Basically, since when a male mounts a female it comes from above, the female will be more susceptible to attacks from below in the water. The male will tap the surface of the water, intentionally trying to draw predators, and since the female is on the water, she will be more likely to be harmed if a fish or whatnot tries to attack. The more you know.

Anyway, I spend most of the afternoon making this fella 😭

Gotta draw the bois soon they’re so silly

Solos for the drawings
