Moths!
Or maybe bees. I have always wanted to hug a bumblebee.
Bees 100%
Now it’s just me, and the bees
Everyone knows that anyone who knows anything about anything would go for the most evolutionary diverse group - spiders.
There is nothing these little guys can’t do. Fly over hundreds of kilometres? You got it. Extend their nervous systems several thousand times past their body area using web? Check. Biological hydraulic system? Yup. Jump 10 to 50 times their body lenght? No problem. Live underwater using silk made diving suit? You bet your sweet behind. Paralyze your body after one bite? Easy.
None of this makes me want to share a table with them.
Tangent, there is a fun fantasy book series by Adrian Tchaikovsky where all the main characters are humanoids with bug qualities. So basically spiderman, antman, mantisman, etc. It is entertaining when you mix fantasy tropes (dueling for honour!) with mantis arm spikes…
I will sit under the lightbulb and wait for the moths to join me.
i think Id make a pretty moth :)
The moths table for the vibes, but the seat closest to the spiders to get in on their jokes.
Mantises. I love those things. We like to find them in the garden and sometimes pick them up and let them crawl all over us.
As a person from a sensible country without praying mantis running freely around outside in nature, this has very much changed my opinion on them!
Truly they’re not scary in person. They’re very gentle when they crawl on you. They’re very good at camouflaging in bushes, so it’s a fun activity to look for them.
I wouldn’t dare to sit here as a human. I’m too big and would probably squish them all by accident.
But if I got to choose to be one, I’d go for the spiders. You get:
- two extra legs over the rest
- your own supply of crafting materials
- lots of eyes
- and a cozy place to relax in
Unless you are a piece of shit, because then the beetles will ragdoll roll you around until you are a nice sphere of shit.
Outside, against the wall, alone. At least that’s where I sat in high school. So, maybe with the wasps?
As far away from the moths as possible. Too chaotic and irrational for me.
LÖMP!
I think I’d go with the moths. Least likely to kill me.
Bees. So long as I stay on their good side they’re chill and they’ll protect me from the other options that want to eat me.
