Wallonia, Belgium, today.

I stumbled upon a plant covered with small bundles of aphids, and sure enough, upon closer inspection, it had a whole aphid farming operation going on, and ladybugs had found it.

The ant tried blocking the way but fell off. Hopefully it's okay somewhere. The aphids, unfortunately, will not be.

Human: Aww, cute little ladybug!

Ant: IT COMES, THE GREAT TERROR, DESTROYER OF WORLDS. THE END-TIMES ARE HERE!
