Concept: Infested boss that's essentially a rat king amalgamation of the standard Infested enemy types (Charges, Leapers, etc...)

Originally popped in my head as a redesign idea for Phorid.

The fly that tricks ants and who never grows up.

Imagine you run a nursery. You & your sisters care for many helpless babies. One day you notice a baby is... different. It never grows up. It's not a baby ant! It's an adult phorid fly! A fly without legs, or wings! Can you spot the fake? Can you spot the fake? (Image source)

This ant is not carrying a larvae but one of the phorid flies. She found it and is taking it to the nursery where it "belongs" We don't know the whole life cycle of this sneaky parasitic insect yet. It was only discovered in 1995 and there is much more research to be done!

Vestigipoda sp. trick army ants into taking care of them.

I cannot stress how WIERD it is that an *adult* fly is totally immobile & looks like a larvae of another species. (army ants in this case)

Under a microscope you can see the fly-like features of Vestigipoda's face. Incredible becoming totally "helpless" is such an effective adaptation. I really want to know what the entire life cycle is like. How do they mate? What are they like when they are maggots? Are they disappointed to be a maggot and pupate only to be a larvae?

(Listen, creepy fly... at least you don't need to do anything to find food. The ants clean you and take care of everything. )

Haven’t attempted to get a John Prodman poster in game yet so I made a pin-up myself, lol.

To @martianjellyfish for getting 250+ tumblr followers.  Congrats on your achievement!

The camera swivels over to Tommy, who is sitting on a couch with Jan draped in his lap. “This is the very important pre-show bassist cuddles,” Henrik continues. It sounds like he’s laughing. “As you know, bassists are delicate creatures.” Tommy snorts, looking mildly amused while Jan crosses his legs theatrically, pressing a kiss to the top of Tommy’s head. “I can’t perform if I don’t have my Tommy time,” Jan intones seriously, before giggling obnoxiously.

So yeah, I was fighting Phorid and this happened. Pardon the quality, all I have is windows movie maker, a mic I need to replace, and the PS4 capture at the moment.

Was I hitting Phorid in the wrong area or something?

I’ll try to upload more of my Warframe clips in the future.
