not a barkbeetle fan but domestic au is so... MWUAH
Haha! Hallo! It's not the first time someone tells me that! ( ╹▽╹ )
I've noticed that most of those who follow my Domestic AU aren't even BarkBeetle fans, but are curious about the plot or wawa (Termitany)
I really appreciate that you like my silly AU!

I love drawing Terminaty with Mark, it gives me a lot of comfort to see how happy he is with his baby 😭
how did pest and mark get the baba
i need answers
Hallo anon! Thanks for asking and let me explain!
Mark found them at work.
Let's say, that day he and his coworkers visited a building that needed some repairs. The most affected was the ground floor, and even more so with the damp walls...
During the inspection, Jim noticed that one of the walls sounded hollow, and on impulse he destroyed it (he thought it was a good idea to start there).
Mark soon heard a scream, when he looked, Jim was horrified ”TERMITE! THERE'S A TERMITE PLAGUE!”
(Note: As mannequins, being made of wood, they clearly fear for their lives when there are termites nearby, they are easy prey for them. When mannequins encounter termites, they flee the area as quickly as possible.)
Everyone backed off! Including Mark haha! Although it seemed strange to him that those individuals did not come out, he took courage and decided to go closer to verify... There he found a small larva sleeping.

It was strange, there was a baby larva but no trace of the colony, Mark hesitated and hesitated, so he took them, Everyone was horrified that he was holding that thing in his arms, but Terminaty was more harmless than they thought...

Mark decided to take them with him that same day, 'cause he believed that someone would know what to do with them (exactly, that someone is Pest).
This may be subject to change, btw! But it is the main idea of how he adopted wawa.
If you have any questions, you can write me back, anon! 🦭✨
Pest being actually the most caring and protective dad for Termibaby is something i LOVE to think about
I have no way to describe Pest as a father, but I have an image that does... /J

Although I don't deny that he would be a loving father, it would be the first time I saw a baby insect (larva)!
My friends say that Wawa is like Pest was when he was little, a chaotic child, I don't blame them, they are very similar in that aspect.

It can't be a Q&A post without a sketch!
How little Wawa look all grown up I need to know bro
It's a very curious question to be honest...

Ta-dah! Wawa grown up! (Although you can call them Terry), In my logic, combining Mark's personality and Pest's, I imagine a miner.
(Note: Terry is possibly a soldier termite!)
And a while back, someone on Twitter posted a HC that instead of eating wood, eats porcelain or gems, and I liked the idea of the gems... Although they is a gems collector.
