My mascot, Habi is some sort of grub creature. She's expressive and portrays herself as a tough and cool person, but she's actually a bit of an awkward loser. She likes dressing in funky colours, with a ton of buttons, patches and stickers. She also really likes duel monsters (and sucks at it). She's like that excited weeb you'll see gushing about some merchandise of their favourite unpopular animanga.
I like the artistic freedom that comes with her. I've drawn her in all kinds of shapes - and there's a handful of different versions of her. She started off as a more anthromorphic creature, has a more 'feral' version of it, and more recently, a 'bishie' humanoid form. Even between all those, she can be drawn with different features - a short or long tail, boobies or none, slightly transparent or with a different hairstyle. It's fun! I've also begun using her as my avatar when I'm streaming. 
And then there's Ke, the secondary mascot. He's a gentle, quiet scarab beetle. He's rather small. Kinda cat-sized, I'd say. His design grew more simple over the years, and now he's just a cutie! He enjoys basking in the sun, and his favourite snack are blueberries. He might be a little guy, but he's got a big heart. He's here to make friends, and cheer them up and on. He's your biggest fan!!
Hi! Webmaster Isabelle here. 👽 You can call me Isa, too, if you'd like! Like many people on Neocities, I longed for a place I could fully customize and make my own. As someone who adores the retro/gaming aesthetic, I've been finding a lot of joy into using that as my inspiration for dressing up my little website.
Now by no means dare I call myself a coder, and as such, you'll see stuff change around a bunch while I try and figure out how to place or write it out. It's a real mess in there, I tell ya! (laughs) But when it works out, I do feel a little proud.
'Why did you go with the name Beetleclub?' I thought it sounded cool. I do adore beetles, as well as other arthropod species. Plus, my little mascots here are beetle(grub)s!

Beetleclub started as a little page for me to fill it up with 'yume' - a form of selfshipping. I prefered the term yume as it is not neccessarily bound to the romantic aspect alone. While I do have romantic partners, I also really enjoy just excisting in their worlds, and have friends and family relations alongside them. Something I've been doing ever since I was a child was either inserting myself in fictional realities, as well as imagine fictional characters by my side in my reality. It's comforting. It is real, to me. It's like a barrier between universes, that sometimes weave into one another in dreams. In thoughts. In whatever we do to make a connection with a character - an individual.
and while Beetleclub started as just a page to ramble about my love for certain characters, it's growing into my personal little bubble for all sort of things that I enjoy. And as it continues to do so, I can only hope you'll feel a little entertained, or perhaps even inspired, while you roam the clubhouse. My home, on this wide, wide web.
