*Slides this into frame while giggling and kicking feet* I have finally finished this piece LMAO. I'm currently in testing season, so I had to put this piece on hold for a bit. Worth finishing. This is a rough draft, and I plan to make more art of Ivo.

This is Ivo. He is a humanoid moth, or mothman, take your pick. He is based on the Buff Ermine moth. He's a ship technician. He fixes up a lot of things, there's not a lot he doesn't repair or create, and he enjoys his job a ton, more than interacting with others. There are only a couple of other people on the ship that he will spend his time with and enjoy the company of, @emthesteves 's oc Hopken is one of them. I'm going to make other posts about Ivo to explain to him more lol. Meow meow.

@braisedhoney is the creator of HIVE, and @talesaboardthehive is the official blog for HIVE stuff, check it out, it's awesome.

Dead Raptor Walking

NOT CANON STORY BTW‼️‼️‼️

HIVE belongs to @braisedhoney, and @talesaboardthehive

Silly little HIVEsona thing I wrote.

Characters mentioned:

Colony, Captain Ney, and Leander from @braisedhoney

BR0049 from @beartitled

And finally CR1335 from @crimsomcrystal

The first time Ain Orion laid eyes upon the HIVE was on a simple docking bay on the planet Perigree.

Perigree had been a small planet and Ain had only been on it for a few weeks, wrapping up his last merc job and lying down their plans to finally escape this hellish life.

So here they were, at this docking bay, looking for ships that needed security or animal control or something, when they found a poster.

'The Stars Wait For You! Join the HIVE!'

The person on the paper wore an owl-like mask, stars scattered behind them and in smaller text, it claimed the HIVE was not as dsytopian as it seemed.

Ain didn't care about that.

The strap around their muzzle itched and they folded up the poster, slipping it into their pack, looking around the docking bay to see if they could see the captain on the poster among the milling crowd of people fueling and restocking.

An owl-mask was easy to spot and Ain strode towards them, making note of the Captain's companions, an android/robot thing with a black face, a white line that reminds Ain uncomfortably of the lines on heart monitors and a tall, white bearded man, dressed in white.

The group looked up as Ain's claws clicked closer to them, the man in white raising an eyebrow at the the raptor's muzzle, and Ain raised a claw to idly scratch at it.

"Greetings." Ain folded their arms behind their back, dipping their head in a small bow, "Are you the Captain of the HIVE ship?"

The owl-mask straightened.

"You would be correct. I'm Captain Ney. What can I do for you?"

"I am Ain Orion. I'm looking for work and I saw your poster. My expertise is in military and-" Their eyes dart over the large ship behind the three, "Cargo protection."

Captain Ney turned slightly to the robot before speaking.

"Colony, do you need any help?"

The raptor squirmed a bit under the robot's gaze.

"It would not be turned down."

The captain clapped their hands together.

"Then welcome to the ship, Ain!"

Just like that.

Just like that, Ain was welcomed aboard the ship, given a uniform and a number. No questions about their past, nothing.

…

It freaked them out.

Jobs like this were a good sign you were going to get killed or that they were doing something especially shady, but as the months passed, with next to no work for the raptor, nothing happened.

They drifted through space, did occasional deliveries, stopped at random planets for seemingly no reason and picked up random people that wanted to join the crew.

It was peaceful, if a bit odd.

And it drove Ain crazy.

Ain was used to blood under their claws, between their teeth, was used to falling asleep to gunfire or in broken buildings. Was used to being on war ships, the feeling of a gun in-between their hands.

The Raptor was not used to peace.

They spent their first couple of months restlessly pacing the dizzying halls of the HIVE until one day they brought the raptor to Leander, who Ain had learned was the ship's medic.

Leander, whether out of annoyance or pity, tossed Ain an odd job to do.

Then another one.

Then it was Colony handing out odd jobs, or the Captain, or BR0049, or any of the other crew members, word of the fact that Ain was ready to accept any task thrown at them spreading.

Ain never figured out how the halls worked or how to navigate them but that was fine. As long as the ship got them to where they needed to be as soon as possible in an emergency.

The ship itself was interesting, the more Ain explored in it. Everywhere were HIVE motifs, hexagons on every wall and there was always crew members around so you were never truly alone.

The people here were okay. Misfits, a lot of them seemed, and there seemed to be no negative reactions when Ain finally took their muzzle off.

So they left it off, enjoying not having it itch every 20 seconds.

Ain never really got close to anyone though, history telling them that that would only lead to pain.

Well.

Except for Lizard-Thing.

Some software nerd that enjoyed trying to get under Ain's fur and Ain knew it's species too.

They remembered killing some for a job.

Their last job.

It wasn't an issue for Ain, as one had taken their tail, giving Ain some respect for the lizard things.

Except for CR1335.

She was a menace, but Ain could avoid him if they wanted to, so it wasn't an issue.

The two started up a friendly rivalry of sorts and Ain could feel that itch under their fur lessen.

Maybe they could be happy here.

Maybe, finally, they could stop thinking about the sins of their past.
