Something that doesn't get mentioned often about the "humans are eldritch gods to bees" thing is that they can kill us. Specific old ones are weak to the venom that the workers have.
Hell there's a specific bee with the reputation of "kills people"
Which *looks up "killer bee"*
Oh. *looks at how the Africanized Killer Bee was created*
Oh no.
Is *this* what that spy kids quote was talking about?
