"vampire bats are so scary"
him? hims is scary to you? with his little face and puffball body?
Vampire bats are only a few inches long from snooty to booty. what you SHOULD be afraid of is the giant gold crowned flying fox, which is so damn big that you could give it a hug. But dont. because bats can haves rabies so leave the touchings up to the Scientists.
Except you don't need to be afraid because he will not eat you, fear not. he wants a fig slice.
so tiny; yet robust and strong.
GUYS! I have learned crucial information about bats I think everyone should know. Especially pertaining to Underland fliers.
Bats can purr!
They vibrate and they sound like engines, it's adorable. There is a great video of one on the Maid of Bats Instagram page. And I am also immediately adding it to my headcanon that fliers purr unconsciously under certain circumstances of happiness, and that they can do it at will. Just a deep rumble while they vibrate. Just-
Gregor: *does something*
Ares: *finds it endearing and starts purring unconsciously*
Everyone else: 0_0 WTF, I didn't think Ares could do that anymore.
Or also,
Luxa: *extremely stressed out about something that happened or about being queen and goes to Aurora*
Aurora: *wordlessly wraps her wings around Luxa and starts purring to help Luxa relax*
after accidentally on purpose scoundrelposting for like 7 hours straight yesterday i feel like it's vital to remind the class that despite all of their horrors and drama they ARE destined to turn into this thing.
they are 3 inches big. they have goofy little eyes. they prey heavily on moths. their lifespan is 2 years long and they are extremely vulnerable to death by wind turbine. just something to keep in mind here
