So here we finally meet Beaulah Scarab the Dung Beetle one of my earliest Mizzer Humanimals before Brutalmoose started his Mysterytapes Series and I used the tapes featured as a kernal to imagine what kind of Humanimal would like those shows featured on those tapes and also using the commercials and bumpers from different States as a means of filling out the Mizzer Map imagining how they tried to recreate America bit by bit and even after five thousand years they still weren't finished because Mizzer is so much larger than America and certain regions are more inhosibtible than others, Beaulah made before that I decided she was from Bluegrass Country which as you could guess from the name is the equivilent of Kentucky
As they gingerly entered Viola Strierra's Solar System, trying to keep hidden behind the uninhabitable planets and asteroids so they wouldn't be noticed by roving patrols, they found the Planetoid that orbited the Solar System's local gas giant planet which provided enough heat to turn the small Planetoid into a lush and tropical place capable of supporting life, Uncle Gus explained he had to stop here on his journey to Earth where Beaulah provided him with extra food, fuel and supplies.
"Now..." Uncle Gus says "...As the Liberation of Viola Strierra is finally underway now is the time we can finally pick up Beaulah as she will soon be reunited with her fellow Liberated Mizzerans!"
Raph only groaned at the thought of finally meeting the Dung Beetle in person.
The S.S. Mehetibell touched down, on this wild Planettoid there was barely anything remotely civilized.
(They saw from above a few buildings like what looked like an old fuel station giving hints that the Wranglers had tried colonizing this place before but something had prevented them from doing that.)
and it seemed this place wasn't merely lush tropical rain forest, it seemed to be entirely tropical swamp! Making it very hard to find a dry place to land!
Not long after our heroes were beginning to disembark, did they see the human-sized Beetle-Woman flying toward them!
"Welcome! Welcome!" She said "It's been so long since I've had company! Well there was that Cat-Man a few months ago but he only stayed for a few hours...Please, if there is anything I can do for you, let me know..."
The Beetle-Woman landed in front of them, having lived in this wild place all by herself for so long, her only clothes were an apron made from, what looked like palm leaves but they were probably some alien plant that simply resembled it's Earth counterpart.
But Ichabod, Marzipan and Jonathan and others were struck by what they saw, most Insect Humanimals have compound eyes like their ordinary counterparts, but this Dung Beetle had human like eyes within her face covered by exoskeleton, bright blue eyes at that! They had heard tales of a few rare Insect Humanimal lines who had been given veretabrate eyes instead of the usual compound eyes, as an attempt to make the Insect People prettier, but this was the first time they were seeing one of those Bugs in person!
"Um...Hi..." Ichabod said "Beaulah..."
"Scarab." The Dung Beetle said "I"m Beaulah Scarab of Dirtberg the Insect Community of Bluegrass County."
"Wow Bluegrass County!" Marzipan exclaimed "That was like practically another country for us West Coast Humanimals, but I remember from my Mizzer Geography Calsses that, that was meant to be the equivilent to Kentucky, that where they had races on ordinary horses and kept all of Mizzer's gold reserve!"
Beaulah nodded "All true, our country really was quite the paradise, and then the Wranglers had to go and invade us."
"How did you survive by yourself for years?" Ichabod asked "Could you show us around by any chance?"
"Sure." Beaulah said "I can show you quite a bit, there were quite a few Humanimals who came before me, but they didn't survive on this planet half as long as I did because, this planet is home to a fungus that infects warm blooded creatures."
That made everyone freeze weather they were warm blooded or not.
"Don't worry!" Beaulah said "It doesn't happen in an instant, it took years for the previous Humanimals to become infected a few hours here won't kill harm you in the slighest!"
They followed her to a place where she had something boiling in a Cauldron.
"Now I'm sure you know what I eat." Beaulah said "I would never ask any other creature to eat what I eat, but since I knew I would have compay coming I prepared something you would at least find edible."
She began spooning something out of the Cauldron "Some local leaves..." She said "...When boiled taste like cabbage."
"Um..." Mikey was not sure weather he should eat something touched by a creature who ate dung.
Beaulah seemed to anticipate what Mikey was thinking "I assure you..." She said "...I wash my hands throughly after every meal, it's safe to eat what I touch."
Ichabod took a bowl of the cabbage like leaves from Beaulah and took a bite to show he trusted her.
"It really does taste like boiled cabbage." He said "A familiar taste of home."
The place Ichabod grew up in on Planet Alderbaren being a combination of England and New England culture, so here I point out Bugs having 'normal eyes' is so rare most think such creatures to be mere rumors making Beaulah surpringly striking for a Dung Beetle Beaulah's backstory will be revealed next chapter
