hyperfixations are really funny because now im turning among us show characters into solenopsis dragons and making fankids out of them

I want to know that there are lands

Not yet touched by human hands

I want to be the one to find them

HI i want to start posting more of my oc stuff here rather than just MCYT things, so meet Mica!! I might do some proper character introduction posts later if I’m feeling silly. Check out oomfs @solenopsis-story blog, my oc’s are part of Solenopsis!

Solenopsis japonica

A fire ant found in Japan. It preys on the larvae of other ant species by tunneling into a neighboring colony’s brood chamber from its own nest.

The dish soap didn't work they decided to just fly away. That's worse.

[ID: Two photos of fire ants climbing on an empty dish soap bottle. Each ant has a very dark red head and thorax, and an almost black abdomen. Two visible are much larger than the ones around them, with longer abdomens, and have shimmering transparent wings folded across their backs. End ID.]

Fine ok I'll post my mlp OCs. IDs under the cut

[Start ID: The first picture is of Solenopsis, a cyan changeling with an orange thorax, red chest, a dark magenta shell with orange and lighter purple highlights, and red eyes. He has orange spots (actually I'm not sure what they're called, they're not exactly spots as they poke out a bit from his chest, but I'm not sure what else to call them) on his chest, and his horn curves up and has two points. His pony form is a tall, skinny unicorn with a red body, orange hooves, and a dark magenta mane and tail with orange and lighter purple highlights (similar to his shell in changeling form). The orange spots on his chest from his changeling form are still there, but now they're flat orange spots on his fur. His eyes are cyan with orange and magenta highlights. His pony form's cutie mark is a cyan ant head, and there's a note underneath it that reads: "he designed it himself but refuses to admit how much thought went into it given how lackluster the final product is." Other notes on the page, listed through bullet points, read: "changeling, but prefers being in his pony form." "Evil little shit (affectionate)." "He/him." "Dating Petri Chord." "Did I mention that he's a little shit."

The second picture is of Petri Chord. In case screen readers read his name wrong, I need you to know that his name is pronounced like "petricord," not Petri as in Petri dish. He hates it when people call him Petri as in Petri dish; however, since he works in a lab, this happens almost daily. He is an average-sized pegasus with a gray body and navy blue hair, tail, and wing feathers. His hair and tail are both curly, and there's a streak of yellow that goes through his tail. His eyes are this same shade of yellow with reddish orange and cream highlights. He wears thick-framed glasses and has dark shadows under his eyes, as though he doesn't get a lot of sleep. His ears are notably small and round. His cutie mark is an erlenmyleyer flask (that's the triangle shaped one, however now that I'm looking at actual pictures of them to make sure I get the name right, I'm realizing that I drew it... kinda bad) filled with a bright green liquid, and there's a yellow lightning bolt behind it. The notes, arranged under bullet points, read: "He/him." "Mad Scientist." "A little evil, Mayhaps, For funsies." "So so tired." "Just, of everything, all the time." "Dating Solenopsis." End ID.]

So the thing with fire ants is, you build up a tolerance to the venom. When I was mowing the front lawn (and pulling up Saint Augustine, which I hate), I disturbed a mound. Eh, whatever. That’s why I double up on the gloves. Some managed to get on the sleeve of my shirt, and one had crawled inside. I wasn’t sure if she’d stung me or not. 

A couple hours later, a spot on my arm started itching. I thought I had a mosquito bite. The bump was the right size. 

When the bite started to hurt a little when I scratched it, oh boy, yup, fire ant got me. She was a bigger one, too. I guess that explains how massive her gift to me is. 

Keep in mind: getting one fire ant sting is not usually how it goes. I had a coworker who gardened in shorts and showed up with hundreds of stings completely covering his shins after a weekend. Imagine if I hadn’t been wearing two pairs of gloves and long sleeves, and hundreds of ants covered my arms in these things! 

So yeah, fire ants. If you don’t have them, be thankful, and if you do have them, be careful!

Hi ! 

So.. Hmm... I’ve just created this account ‘cause I finally found about the otherkin community (But I always felt like I wasn’t truly what I am. I just wasn’t able to put a word on it).

So I’m just here trying to find other people like me and make some friends ! My name is Abby and I’m just.... an ant ?  Ah ah, sorry...  It can sound weird.. I don’t want to look like an another snowflake but everybody had some cool and cute kint. Like deer, wolf, cat. But not me ? I’m not complaining about this ! It’s just that even though twitter, I haven’t seen any other ant... So... huu... I think it’s all ?  let’s talk and be friend ! Even if I’m a solenopsis, I don’t bite !
