#princess arthropoda

[ponysweet]

Whoops didn't post this here, but here's Blueberry Muffin Quartz (Son to Pinkie Pie, Tempest Shadow, and Brie Panini) and Princess Arthropoda (Daughter to Thorax). They are engaged to be wed, she's a grouch and he makes her laugh.

Ramblings about them under the cut

Name: Blueberry Muffin Quartz Identity: Cis Hetero Stallion (he/him) Siblings: Extra Cheesy Pizza Pie (Older Sibling) Super Swirly Red Velvet Surprise Cake, Bomb Party Cannon, Nettlekiss Stitch, Candy Crusher, Jelly Bean Jamboree Pie, High Top, Sour Dough & Sweet Pea, Neapolitan Ice Cream Sandwich, Sugar Rush Pie, Honey Bunch Pie (Younger Siblings) Talent: (vague hand gesture) Baking

Name: Princess Arthropoda of the Changeling Kingdom Identity: Trans Fem & Intersex, Hetero (she/her) Siblings: Prince Firefly

Despite her father being perky and pretty laid back for a King and her being an asexually reproduced copy of Thorax, the Princess of the changelings is a stickler for rules- mostly ones that apply to herself and how she plans to run things as she dreams of branching off to make her own hive one day. So to others she tends to come off as stuck up and rude, Thorax just tells them that she's trying her hardest to impress everyone by showing off how regal she is... but most ponies tend to avoid her.

Though Blueberry Quartz is practically the only one who wasn't afraid to approach her, when he was helping deliver stuff to the changeling kingdom for Princess Arthropoda's birthday party, he approached her with no hesitation because he thought she was gorgeous. Everyone thought she was going to chew his head off- literally, as he started spewing out dumb puns and jokes in attempts to impress her. To everyone's surprise... she started to burst out laughing, laughing so hard she had tears in her eyes from some of the corniest jokes he was pulling out. Princess Arthropoda instantly grew a soft spot for this pony boy.

The two started dating and got engaged pretty quickly, Blueberry Quartz lives at the changeling's hive and has grown accustom to living there.

Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Arthropoda Class: Insecta Order: Hymenoptera Family: Formicidae Subfamily: Formicinae Tribe: Lasiini Genus: Myrmecocystus

The myrmecocystus is commonly known as the honey pot ant. The class of honeypot ants are the storage units or the colony. Their abdomen is full of nutrition in liquid form. As the workers bring in food, these ants gorge themselves as their abdomen grows to be about the size of a grape. 

Since these ants are used as a spare food source, they occur mostly in areas where the climate is hot and dry, with little food supply. The mrmecocystus species is primarily found in North America but there are over 30 other species of ants that have been found to take this shape.  Some of theses species can be found in woodlands where the weather is very cool and dry.

It is only the queen of the colony’s job to reproduce, so none of the honey pot ants take part in the reproduction process. In fact, most of the ants in the colony are sterile females. The queen lays all the eggs and the drones are the few males that mate with the queen and princesses. Instead, the honey pot ants spend the majority of their life deep in the tunnels of the colony waiting to feed others and be fed with  nectar, insects, honeydew, and  plant secretions. They hang upside sown in the tunnels while other ants will stroke their antennae to induce a regurgitation of their tasty liquids. 

Fun Fact: Some species of honey pot ants sacrifice themselves by allowing other ants  to consume them.
