too young to freak out
My nervous Formica subsericea colony. These are black field ants. When I turn on the light they panic. A newly emerged worker (called a callow) cowers as her sisters stampede over her. She is newly emerged and not strong enough to run and freak out.
(this is me at big parties TBH)
One of her sisters picks her up and she tucks her legs in like a pupae so she is easy to carry. In a few days she will be a lovely black like her older sisters.

Tbh the way ants build off each other to create bridges and towers is simultaniously a cartoonishly straightforward approach to a problem and also kind of horrifying

A is for Ant, B is for breakfast, and C is for cadaverous
Now here's a fic where Shino Aburame is the (un)lucky ninja who gets thrown into another dimension~ Welcome Shino to the world of Solo Leveling!
Anyways, he lands in Jeju Island and "befriends" all the ants by doing whatever insect things are required in order to gain control of the whole ant colony - I'm no ant expert so let's just handwave and say that he somehow achieves it.
The team that KHA organizes to clean and clear the Jeju Island is in for a real surprise to see this teenage boy living among the ants eating breakfast. Good thing that Japan sent over some Japanese hunters or there would be a language barrier to further add to the confusion.

Right so my roommate and I are having a little party for his birthday. He suggested starting around 4. It’s 2:30, and I’m pretty sure he’s still asleep. My roommate in Christ, it’s kind of hard to throw a party if you’re asleep
