Random Headcanon:

I feel like Bi-Han would be very protective of his brothers when they get to the age where they start dating. Like guy or girl, in Kuai's case, Bi-Han is gonna give his partner a bit of a hard time. With Kuai though, Bi-Han won't be too worried for long as the middle sibling quickly proves that he can handle himself thank you very much. So after a while, he just observes from the sidelines.

(Gets a tiny bit suggestive on Bodaway's part)

When Bodaway comes out as gay to him, he's supportive and reminds his baby bro that he loves him no matter what. But the moment Bodaway is caught with Sektor, all hell breaks loose. Bi-Han doesn't mind that Bodaway is gay, but did he have to want THAT GUY?! Of all the people, Bodaway wants his rival. He'll soon calm down, but he won't make things easy on Sektor. No, he's gonna be a major cock block for the two, always showing up when things seem to be getting heated and sitting smack dab in the middle of the two.

Now, that's not to say Bodaway and Kuai Liang weren't protective of their big bro now. When Bi-Han first began having his casual flings (that is if he was open to his brothers about them), the boys made it pretty clear to the other person that they didn't approve of them just yet. Should Bi-Han continuously play around with one person in particular (once again this would only happen if Bi-Han is open to his brothers about his love life), then the two little bros would eventually warm up to that person.

Working on a new design for Bodaway since I feel like his original is too human for the path he's going down now. I'll still keep the human design though and let that be his secondary form. At this point, the only self-insert thing about him are his Indigenous features lol.

Bodaway's primary form is inspired by D'vorah but will have some of my own little twists to it. I'm giving him either four or six eyes to somewhat fit his spider cryptid (since I feel like calling him a drider wouldn't be too accurate, idk y'all tell me) self better. I've also decided that his lips will have chelicerae of sorts that helps him catch/eat his prey, but at the cost of him being able to communicate like a human would. Instead he speaks in a series of clicks and chirps when he resides in his spider form. Because of this his brothers have to learn his language to better understand what Bodaway is trying to ask or say.

Bodaway's arms and legs, well body in general will be rather hairy since I'm trying to base him off a huntsman spider. For the monster enjoyers, yes the fur is soft but no he is not warm. Like Syzoth, Bodaway is cold-blooded but doesn't need to seek out warmth, but has to so he can avoid being in constant diapause. This means that he's either bundled up in thick material or he's near Kuai Liang a lot for warmth.

Here's where the inspiration from D'vorah comes in. Like D'vorah, Bodaway walks on two legs, but spiders have eight limbs, to fix that he has four spider-like limbs that can sprout and retract from his back.

Despite having six eyes, Bodaway has poor vision in all of them, a trait that carries over into his human form, and without glasses, he often relies on touch or vibration to get around. Because of this, he's trained his spider senses to tingle in certain ways whenever a specific person approaches him. That's how he's always able to tell when Bi-Han or is Kuai Liang approaching him versus when a villain is approaching him. Villains all have one tingle pattern that registers in Bodaway's brain as there are too many to try and decipher. Only his close friends and family get their own unique tingle, though he won't ever tell a soul about that. That's too soft and mushy of him.

Having fused with a huntsman spider his fur is mostly grays and browns, as is his skin. This fur also plays a huge role in helping him navigate the world in his natural form. Huntsman spiders don't make webs but do produce silk, which is what Bodaway uses to websling.

Like the huntsman spider, Bodaway isn't aggressive and prefers to find a civil end to conflict before fighting or even biting his foe. However, if push comes to shove, Bodaway does possess his own venom that unlike the spider itself, Bodaway's venom packs a nasty punch. While possible, Bodaway has never injected enough of his venom into a person to kill them.

Because of his poor eyesight, Bodaway likes to be around semi-lit rooms so that he isn't bumping into everything. If he has to go somewhere dark, then he has to have a dull light on hand. He doesn't like bright lights but can tolerate them.

His poor brothers have oftentimes come across Bodaway eating weird things, be it other spiders, or even some of the mice that got inside the temple. While it's unsettling, Bi-Han and Kuai Liang understand it's just part of Bodaway's nature.

More Bodaway info, but nsfw this time

I don't write this stuff often so it will be awkward. Angst is more my territory lol

Ok, so Huntsman spiders caress their mates when they're about to do the deed. So when Bodaway is horny he tends to caress and massage Sektor's body in hopes of getting him in the mood too. Sometimes the message isn't always clear and Sektor assumes that Bodaway is being nice by giving him a massage which results in a series of sexually frustrated chirps (Bodaway doesn't like mating in his human form.) Only then does Sektor realize what Bodaway was getting at and spends a few seconds feeling flustered before reciprocating and pinning his spider boyfriend down, or allowing Bodaway to pin him down.

Huntsman spiders do eat their mates after mating, and Bodaway is no different just not in a cannibalistic kind of way if you catch my drift. The first time Bodaway ate him out, it caught Sektor by surprise before he eventually relaxed into it knowing that it could've been much worse. Eventually, he grows to like it and even demands that Bodaway does it every time they have sex.

I just had a great idea for my oc. So, he's a necromancer as I've mentioned previously. So like what if...his necromancy was slowly killing him? Turning him into one of the zombies he controls little by little? I think that might be a good concept to explore, though I'm not sure if I want to make it a set in stone type of deal just yet.

Dumbass got tangled in his webs he neglected to clean out, smh 🤦

Poor Bi-Han walked in at the wrong time.

Alrighty, since Across the Spiderverse is still strong on my mind I decided to turn Bodaway into a spidersona. I feel like this would also fit him, and give him the bonus of being able to scale buildings and hide away when he's stressed. As Spider-Man, Bodaway feels like he doesn't have to try and be someone he's not, and people praise him for doing what he does instead of dragging him down. For the fun of it, and to give more insight into his true origin, he fused with the radioactive spider during his creation thus leading him to be "born" with the spider powers. Feel free to guess what his canon event was.
