Came up with a fanbug for an RP group I'm in right now, and I dug up some old Sharpies for the colors. Nothing complicated, just wanted to make them bright. Might do something more polished later, but for now, meet Ferriflosp!
They're based on cotton candy (AKA "fairy floss") and fairy wasps. Originally, I wanted them to be an extension of the Shishkabug line, since ants and wasps are fairly close in the order Hymenoptera, but then I saw their little feather duster wings, and it made more sense to set them up as close relatives of Hunnabees instead.
A single Ferriflosp is too small to be caught on its own, similar to Popticks, but instead of making the individuals bigger, you would need to trick them into swarming a larger Bugsnak and spinning themselves into a much bigger cotton candy shape. They are usually peaceful, but when gathered together to feed on chocolate, they can become a lot more aggressive because of their drive to protect one another. Unfortunately, this also means that if you scare one or two, the rest of the swarm will come to their rescue. The best way to escape an angry swarm is to hide underwater, since they would dissolve on contact if they didn't know not to avoid water at all costs.
Blue-pink Ferriflosp are most common, generally speaking, while orange-green and yellow-purple tie for second place. Mismatched Ferriflosp (ie. orange-yellow, purple-green, blue-orange, pink-green, etc) are uncommon, but tend to swarm together in larger groups than other Ferriflosp. Lastly, it is possible to find small black-white swarms with rainbow stingers and legs, but very few have ever been witnessed by Grumpus eyes.
