Mint

 it/she 

Mint (short for Calamint) is Bug OC's best friend! She is the more confrontational one of the duo, and being a mantis, it isn't afraid to fight either, should push come to shove. It also has a big interest in music, so fittingly, she works at a record store.

• Mint's affectionately given nickname for Bug OC is "Buggy!"
• Knows a thing or two about auto repair! As a side hustle, it works as a freelance mechanic.
• Being a tease, as well as tall, she loves to pick Bug OC up in various ways, similar to a malleable cat and their entertained owner. Bug OC hates this more than anything.
• Despite loving everything about music, it hasn't much musical talent. Still dreams about recording and selling its own album one day.
• Prefers to cash out her paychecks into cents rather than bills.
