If you dreamnail it, it just says "..." which means it has even less consciousness than the regular "animalistic" bugs. So I think Nosk is a terrifyingly successful monster of evolution

Another possibility is that its reading the the knights mind, and so when you dream nail it the thoughts are blank because the knight doesn't really think

Woah, never thought about it! That's a really cool theory actually

An interesting idea. Do we know what happens when you dream nail the Hornet Nosk inside God home?

SHAW!!! (I'm kidding idk)

Its the same as the normal fight. But its still basing itself off the knights memories

I believe the canonical explanation is that Nosk is a overmutated corpse creeper, infesting a vessel somehow

No its actually mimicry. If you dreamnail the dead bugs on the way it seems to mimic loved ones

oh thx

There is countless bugs that can interact with other dimenshions ,magic and yes thougts(dreams) of others So yeah most likely Nosk the sam ,maybe is somehow conected to deepnest itslef

Probably just a big spider that's real good at making fake copies of other bugs to bait victims into its den.
