Sociopath Profile: Mothiva

Species: silk moth (Bombyx mori or Bombyx mandarina) From the 2020 video game Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling

Mothiva here is one of the interesting occasions of having a heroic sociopath. She is firmly allied with the side of good and abhors the atrocities committed by the Wasp King (another sociopath). However, being a hero doesn't exactly mean that she's a selfless individual.

She is a popular celebrity with dozens of fans, but it's mostly a way of fueling her ego. The hero gig is something she does because she wants to have some recognition to be seen as the star she believes she is, not necessarily for the good of other bugs. All she wants from the expedition is fame and glory, and she's willing to hinder the other groups to get it for herself. The fact that she decides to attack Team Snakemouth and take their missions just because they were getting more popular than her.

This translates to a distinct lack of empathy for others. While she may project the idea that she loves all her fans and cares about her allies, she could not care less about them. If her partner Zasp gets knocked down in battle first, she'll reprimand him before reviving him without showing a bit of concern for his safety. It is noted that he does have affections for her, but she doesn't return them at all. Although she draws the line at Wasp King treating his forces like cannon fodder, she still isn't above using violence against her allies.

While she is an unpleasant person, Mothiva knows how to act around her adoring fans. She has a very superficial persona of the bubbly and caring celebrity who adores all her fans with all her heart. However, after Snakemouth discovers her true nature, it goes to show how calculated that persona was. And they were formerly fans of her until they experienced her true personality.

She also displays no remorse for any of this behavior. Eventually, she is on the receiving end of two beatings and losing the support of her fans in the Termite Kingdom. The problem is that she suffers no real consequences aside from that. In fact, she still has a wide following since knowledge of her crimes hasn't gotten out further. Chances are she has not learned much.

Mothiva may not be a criminal, but she's still rather sociopathic despite this.

Requesting Guide

I have a lot of mixed thoughts about Jaune and Vi's relationship, but that scene at the beginning of chapter 3 where Leif and Kabbu give Vi this little speech is so sweet. I love it enough to spend hours upon hours transforming it into a comic.

When Sickie was delirious with Fever and mistook Caretaker’s laps as his pillow😏😏😏

Bugtober Day 30 - Nightmare

I’ve accepted the fact that I’m going to be a day behind on these. Ah, well.

What are the odds of everyone having a nightmare on the same night?

The team having a long night’s rest by the campfire. Looks comfy

Common cold

I love a good sickfic with a full on fever and delirium and all that just as much as most of us, but as someone who gets a cold at least once every winter but is literally never actually stay-home-in-bed-sick, consider:

it starts with a sore or scratchy throat for a day or two and your character just knows

when the throat finally stops hurting, their nose gets all stuffy and no matter how hard they try to blow their nose, it doesn’t help one bit so they’re left basically unable to breathe through their nose at all

there is also this pressure in their head which is pretty much a constant headache

and because they have to breathe through their mouth their lips get dry and sore and they lick them frequently in an attempt to wet them a little which just makes them more sore, and that’s another thing that hurts, just great

they’re miserable but there’s no fever and technically no reason to stay home from work/school/stop doing their duties/whatever they’re doing, so there’s no choice but to suffer through the day

when they finally get home all they want to do is sleep, but it’s really hard when your nose just won’t let you breathe

and then

after a few days of struggling through breathing and dealing with persistent headaches, their nose finally decides to stop being all stuffed

instead, it won’t stop running all of a sudden and they’re left going through an entire pack of tissues a day

when they’re not blowing their nose they’re sneezing because their nose won’t stop tickling

and when they aren’t doing either of the two, their eyes just keep watering from the constant tickle in their nose and honestly they feel awful

but still, there’s no fever so it’s actually just an inconvenience, and they’re doing their duties as usual, so if they’re still in school or working an office job or are in the middle of a meeting, they’re torn between trying not to blow their nose too often because it’s disruptive, and trying not to sniffle because everyone thinks that’s gross

and the headache is still there

but of course that can’t be everything so during the entire thing there’s also a really persistent cough that brings frequent coughing fits

starts out with the constant urge to cough where the coughing won’t bring any relief at all and the urge is still there, then turns out into a painful cough from deep within their chest

the coughing is also something that is disruptive in their working space or at school so they try to hold it in as long as possible which makes the resulting coughing fit honestly even worse

plus it keeps them awake at night

they’re terribly cold all the time so they go about their days bundled up in a warm hoodie and a scarf, which, combined with their pale face and tired expression and drooping eyes, just serves to make them look extra vulnerable as they’re holding onto a mug of hot tea with both hands because it provides some warmth and the tea soothes their throat

the whole thing lasts for at least a week and even after their cold is technically gone, the cough might linger for another week
