#tw ladybug

ooh that's a good one. I don't think such a bug exists to fit all their traits?

they'd have a black wing and a red dot smushed into a symmetrical heart shape like ladybug wing/wing's protective shell pattern. this but once giant red heart in the middle instead of two/four red dots the dots flash and glow in the dark if they want to hunt moths!

they have a scarab beetle like build.

and the resilience of a roach.

while on the subject! dust is a dragonfly!

Rhyothemis fuliginosa to be exact... though uh... I imagine since he's made of magic his wings technically could have more of a flair or purple pretty shiny GLOWEY that he'd use to attract prey and kill moths.

yes not exactly on top of the big food chain, but ranking bugs based on violence and food chain status is pointless because everyone has a predator. still! he's QUICK to move and knows how do dodge. his agility and speed can make him aim for just the perfect weak spots to take down larger predators.

y/n is a swram of bees- just kidding. they're just a moth. driven towards danger by an unexplainable sence of either curiosity or reckless stupidity.
