Please tell me to F off if I’m blowing up your asks too much these days! I just have so many ideas 😭
If I’m not…. I can also imagine Bug!Reader collecting little bugs she sees in the forest. Frank undresses her later that night only to find two pocketfuls of live bugs in your shorts. I feel like she would either be proud of her collection or scared he would kill them or take them away 🛵
my thought process behind why you’re called bug!reader is because when you first meet frank, he’s always referring to you as a “pest” or a “bug.” when he starts calling you bug, you suddenly develop an interest in the little critters. they’re so vulnerable and they remind you of yourself because of frank.
frank spends a lot of time outside with you, gun in hand, watching as you play in the forest and woods of each town you pass through. he knows you get claustrophobic inside. hell, he would too, if he was locked in a lab his whole life.
every night you get a bath if you’re outside all day. he’s weird about ticks getting on you or open wounds getting filled with dirt, so when he strips you of your clothes to put you in the bath and a ton of beetles start crawling from your pockets he has to explain that you took them away from their home. “ladybug, remember when i got you from the lab? you were so scared to be away from the place you grew up. you’re doing the same thing to these beetles. now slip on a robe before we get you cleaned up so we can put all these bugs back in the yard.”
“okay, dad, m’sorry. i just liked them, that’s all.”
