Showing off a Silver skull, red parts otherwise and dramatic weight loss, diet Empyreus prepares for a little martial arts kata and then leg day.
One day, he will grow up, stop going to clubs and collect the souls of the wicked.

Best guess? a cattail toothpick grasshopper.
Leptysma marginicollis, the cattail toothpick grasshopper or slender locust, is a grasshopper. It has a very pointed head and flattened, sword-shaped antennae. Thus, it superficially resembles grasshoppers in the subfamily Gomphocerinae, but is easily distinguished by the presence of a spur, or spine, between the front legs. They are usually brownish with a white, yellow, or brown stripe from the eye to the base of the front legs. The head is as long as, or longer than, the prothorax. On top, the body may also be red or pink. The front wings are sharply pointed, extending 3-5mm beyond the tip of the abdomen. https://instagr.am/p/CGu32LdA9N4/

“Cousened” is an obsolete version of “cozened,” so the conjurer is himself tricked. From Poets’ Wit and Humor by W. H. Wills and illustrated by Charles Bennett and George H. Thomas, 1860.

One more big honking spider seen on the deck when I was taking out the trash. I first thought it was a frog until my forebrain counted the legs and saw the furry body.
