I noticed how you liked asking the question asks so here's one for you! Since chimera ants are animal like/have animal characteristics, do you think they would do things that their animal does? They all have mating seasons? Meleoron sheds? Cheetu chirps?
I think it depends on the ant. Like, some of the stuff they did as animals would now be impossible due to their bodies being more humanoid or combined with some other species. But they definitely still have a lot of things they do that are more animalistic.
Meleoron probably sheds more than most humans, but not as much as a real chameleon. They shed to grow and keep clean. But he has no growing to do and doesn't need to do that to keep clean. His sheds are more like getting a light sunburn and peeling the skin off.
I 100% think Cheetu chirps. Imagine him hearing a distant chirp from some random thing and he just stops for a sec and fucking chirps back. Yes. Also, chirping for cheetahs is a sort of mating call.
Now picture him having an s/o who gets startled and when they do they squeak or chirp. He will think you're trying to get some dick when in fact you stubbed your toe.
He purrs too. It's really loud, but paired with his big furnace temperatured self, his fluff, comfy bed, cuddles, I'm already asleep.
I also think that's why he would be super happy to have a long term partner, especially if they ended up having a kid together and they stayed with him. Usually female cheetahs will pick a male, mate several times over maybe 2 days, and dip.
But for you to stay because you genuinely want to be around him? You get endless cuddles.
I think colt has like a mating dance thing. He knows it's weird and he doesn't do a whole dance thing, but he will be very bouncy. Probably shifting his weight around quickly. It just looks like calisthenics, but really he's into you.
He sings too. You can't tell me his voice wouldn't sound beautiful. I'm hearing him sing "once upon a december" in my brain right now.
He does get very horny during spring though. He keeps it under control with ease, but flirting gets him very flustered unlike usual.
Rammot gets even more horny. Good luck leaving the house. Thank goodness for instacart and uber eats.
Also when he's anxious he'll thump his foot really fast. Or when he's mad he'll stomp like a brat throwing a fit.
I'm pretty sure Leol could roar if he wanted. Though he prefers to use it as a scare tactic when he just doesn't feel like dealing with someone.
Welfin is a little weird. Wolves howl and cannot resist howling when they hear another howl. If he hears one on tv or something, he doesn't howl, he hums it. It's high pitched and over dramatic. I can't even describe it as humming, he does the howl but with his mouth shut and a blank expression.
Yunju will kick you if you stand behind him. He can't always control it, he just will. It freaks him out. Plus he actually has to go to a horse place to get his hooves done. Self care!
He does have a better sense of smell with the snake tongue and all. Not as good as a snake but close enough.
Rule of thumb. DO NOT STARTLE IKALGO. HE WILL GET INK EVERYWHERE. Only his ink is more of the purple/blue ant blood color. He hates the ink thing. It's embarrassing.
I think they have all of the instincts, behaviors and conditions their animal self had, but only if their new bodies are compatible with them. They'll still get an urge to do things a certain way despite that.
How would the chimera ants react to their girlfriend being pregnant? Specifically cheetu ikalgo meleoron and colt
Cheetu:
He's surprised but ends up playing it cool like he usually does. He's very cocky and excited. He teases that now there'll be 2 of him to annoy you. He's cocky and proud since it's his cub(s) you're carrying. He wasn't exactly sure if a chimera ant could get a human pregnant, but he's really full of himself now that he knows he can. He also feels as though he's officially claimed you as his.
Any ant with a good nose can tell you smell like him and that you're also pregnant by him. Be prepared for him to tell all his ant buddies. Anytime you meet or hangout with someone for the first time, he's gonna be like, "She's pregnant!" He's a tad over enthusiastic.
He is gonna get a bit insecure and scared though. In the wild, female cheetahs get pregnant and then dip. He doesn't want that to happen, so he's gonna be showing off to you more, subconciously trying to prove why you should stay with him.
He's gonna get fiercely protective of you. And he isn't cocky like usual with his enemy. He's angry and much more primal. If someone even looks at you wrong they're dead.
Ikalgo:
Seriously? You're not joking with me right? He's so damn happy. That gif is the literal expression he gives you. He gives you so much love and affection. He's over the moon. He gets to feel like he has a somewhat normal life all thanks to you, you amazing and wonderful woman.
He's constantly worried about you and baby. He wants to make sure you're both safe. You two talk about what to name the kid a lot, and how to decorate their room etc. A lot of daydreaming and planning.
He likely gives you a speech about how he'll always love you and protect you etc.
Meleoron:
He's super shocked. I think oyu might've broke the man. Window's noises. Then he's like, "AAAAH" He gives you a squeezing hug, he's very excited. Y'all have a conversation about it and decide on keeping the kid and that you're both on the same page. He's excited to tell everyone, but he does it really chill. That gif is when he tells Knuckle.
He's really chill about the whole thing after finding out. But he does get insecure, wondering if he'd even be a good dad. What if there was something wrong with the kid and it was his fault? Just reassure him and it'll be fine.
He talks about it to his friends a lot. They're excited for you guys. He's gonna be more worried about you being in danger or you getting hurt/sick though.
"It says the milk expired today, do you think it's still good to drink?"
"WHAT, ARE YOU CRAZY!?! NO IT'S NOT GOOD TO DRINK! BESIDES, WHAT IF YOU GOT SICK FROM IT, YOU CAN'T BE DOING THAT WHILE YOU'RE PREGNANT!"
Colt:
He's overjoyed. He'll pick you up and spin you around before setting you down and wrapping his wings around you. He will sob happy tears and hold you tight. He swears to be the best father he can.
He starts getting very concerned that someone could hurt you, or that you might get hurt, so he starts going with you everywhere. He's like your own personal knight. He calls you his queen or his lady, and the baby his prince or princess.
You can bet you'll have a bunch of doctor's appointments, sometimes a few a month. Even if everything is fine, he's going to be paranoid. He'll definently do a lot of research on parenting, child care, and everything. He's very excited and also very anxious about it.
