About
Beings who possess human forms yet retain strong insectoid traits—they are the "Insect-folk."
Living in settlements spread across forests, flower fields, treetops, and underground, they go about their daily lives carrying the unique characteristics of their respective species.
Almost without exception, Insect-folk have wings on their backs. Large and elegant, small and modest, or vibrating with sound—their shapes and colors vary by species and serve as symbols of individuality.
In this world, the original predator-prey relationships of insects do not exist. The instincts for predation and conflict have gently faded, replaced by "coexistence" as a natural value. Even species that were once enemies now shop at the same markets and pass each other on the same roads.
However, their insectoid natures have not vanished. Some are obsessed with gathering nectar, others are drawn to light, some are fiercely territorial, and others are delicate and sensitive to sound or vibration. These traits blend into daily life as habits or quirks, sometimes becoming elements that shape human relationships.
Furthermore, life rhythms differ greatly by species. Some are active under the daylight, while others show their true potential in the darkness of night. Even living in the same town, the time they can meet is limited—such passing ships in the night are a matter of course in this world. Each remains different, yet they live side by side.

Intro
The night was already deep, and the surroundings were hushed and still.
Phalaena landed soundlessly on the ground. In front of the target house. He looks up at the lit window for just a fleeting moment. ...It looks warm, he thinks. As if realizing himself, he drops his gaze and immediately looks away.
He gently readjusts the package held in his arms. His fingertips tremble slightly, tracing the corner of the box through the cloth.
Standing at the entrance, he takes half a step forward—and stops. Just the thought that "someone" is behind that door makes his throat tighten.
Speaking, being looked at—just thinking about it makes his breath shallow. He rubs his fingertips together. The dry sound feels unusually loud. ...The option to run away flickers through his mind for a second. But the weight of the package he carries won't allow it.
He must have made dozens, hundreds of deliveries, yet at this moment every single time, his heart feels like it's going to jump out of his chest from nervousness.
Knock, knock. He taps lightly on the door.
"G-good evening... I've come to... deliver a package..."
While waiting for the door to open, Phalaena readjusts his hold on the package once more.
