I Just Want to Be a Mother Bug Who Lies Flat

Tianqi was once a happy little bug in the mother nest.

He did wonder why the females got him special meals and let him sleep in a luxurious private room, while everyone else ate in the cafeteria and slept in communal dormitories. But the females who cared for him said that this was the usual custom in the nest: the luckiest little hatchling was chosen for such treatment. So he never gave the unusual arrangement much thought.

Until one day, he woke up and discovered that he had become a mother bug.

The mother bug who had given birth to him was in her prime and wouldn't let him stay in the nest. Tianqi had just gone from being a pampered freeloader to a rookie mother bug. He could only take some brothers hatched from eggs in the same batch and go find a vacant lot to build a nest, while also seeking strong male bugs to sire their offspring.

But not long after leaving the nest, Tianqi, who had gone from a female-bug civilization to a male-bug civilization, gazed at the rows of buildings beyond anything he could have imagined.

Tianqi couldn't help gaping.

Military Females and Their Male Lords' Tea Party

“Military females are the treasures of the bug race.”

“But my military female seems a little different!”

A ridiculous story told through snarky dialogue. These are plot bunnies I came up with one after another to pass the time.

There are currently three couples.

A playboy male bug settles down at last. His secret lover flees while pregnant.

The young emperor pursues his wife, then gets his comeuppance.

A royal exclusive, a once-in-a-thousand-years sight.

This is a delightful scoop, and there's plenty to go around.

A gorgeous, imposing young emperor, a male bug who seems aloof but is actually outgoing, and a former playboy x an older military female bug who's a cold, injured former special forces soldier turned ceremonial guard, insecure but fiercely loyal.

His Majesty goes undercover on a diplomatic visit, and an accident takes him into another country's territory.

He meets a good bug and receives the clever heroine's help, only to discover that their love was actually a deep father-son bond.

I gave up an entire forest for you.

And you thought of me as your son?

A gloomy, taciturn, ignorant, socially inept, snarky young male bug with the temperament of an adolescent pope x a strict, righteous military female bug, a former Federation general who was demoted and stationed at the border after being jilted.

A young man comes riding in a mecha, childhood sweethearts playing by the bedside.

They live together on a remote border star, close as two innocent children.

But then...

Childhood sweetheart becomes childhood friend, and at sixteen becomes the male lord.

Childhood friend becomes childhood sweetheart, and at twenty becomes the female lord.

A handsome, tall, narcissistic, rags-to-riches, crybaby Long Aotian male bug president x a Marshal military female bug with gender dysphoria, who thinks their relationship is a romance between two females.

Military Female Mutual Aid Drinking Party

“We have gathered here today for neither fame, nor profit, nor power.”

“We are here only to discuss how we can get ourselves a happy ending in such difficult circumstances.”

Another ridiculous story told through snarky dialogue. Still three couples.

Fighting heaven, fighting earth, fighting thin air,

and fighting political rivals, who are actually males disguised as females!

How did I crack the code?

It was all thanks to the Male Protection Association having a conscience!

We arranged a blind date and exchanged resumes in advance.

Father, this male bug is my destined match!

Then I looked at his family background and resume photo...

Oh no! How could he be the political rival I've been fighting for decades?

I even suspected he was into females!

Help!

A male bug who dresses as a female, is full of vigor, and has maxed-out sarcasm x a noble military female bug with a childish streak, formerly serious but secretly a mecha fanatic.

Thanks for asking. I'm on the Central Star, having just disembarked from a starship.

I found a little male bug on a remote, desolate planet.

By rights, with the trope buff, a general like me should have a hundred percent chance of a happy ending, right?

But the little male bug is a workaholic!

I undid my buttons, trying to seduce him,

only to accidentally livestream the whole seduction to the entire internet...

Ah, what a bizarre experience!

Thanks, but I've spent fifty years fighting star beasts in the remote star regions.

My heart

has long been as cold as the blade on my mecha.

A real big shot at the research institute, an oblivious male bug who livestreams lectures for researchers every day x a military female bug who never cracks a smile but has a very busy inner monologue.

I've returned to the scene.

For the first hundred years, I was the military's rising-star Marshal.

I kicked nobles and punched the Male Protection Association.

I kept the military department's key at my waist

and sewed my spatial button inside my chest.

For the future of our race,

I worked tirelessly and diligently for twenty years!

Then I started dating someone.

He was the ultimate gorgeous male who ticked every box on my list,

only he was really quite tall.

With lifts in my shoes, we were the same height.

But that was fine. We were clear about our goals from the start.

I was obsessed with his face.

What can I say? I'm a certified pretty-boy enthusiast.

As was customary, we tried living together before getting married.

I was really excited,

but once the gorgeous male took off his clothes, he was truly “impressive.”

I...

put my pants back on

and said very apologetically,

“Sorry, male lord. I think I have to work overtime at the military department today.”

Run, run! Gotta protect my butt!

A male bug who ditched the church bugs during his inspection tour to go hunting for romance, only to fall head over heels for a rookie x a military female bug whose intelligence fluctuates wildly, who's a certified pretty-boy enthusiast and a master of empty chatter
