Brown Cicada Additional Info

Dialogue When Caught

I caught a brown cicada! Now it probably feels blue, cicada.

Dialogue When Donated to Blathers

  Cicadas are obnoxious insects. And not just brown cicadas, mind you...but all cicadas!

 They flex ribbed membranes on their torso called tymbals to make a loud snapping sound.

 So rude! Hoo! Yes, it is only the males who make the noise. Sometimes at a volume that can produce pain at close range!

 Appallingly inconsiderate, I must say...
