If I had a nickel for every Resident Evil villain that was a rogue Umbrella employee, blond super-genius AND had beef with a literal child, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice

Wow, I love all this interest in little-known life cycles! Yay! I'm still researching Mazdas to figure out which sex carries the young (send refs if you have them!), but in the meantime please enjoy my previous study on airplane reproduction

A pencil drawing of an airplane flying low over power lines. The plane's position is similar to a bird laying an egg: bent at the lower back, abdomen lowered, cloaca stretched open as a round egg emerges. Its visible eye is squeezed shut in effort. The egg is about to be deposited on the power line, which already holds two round eggs that look exactly like the visibility markers you may have seen on power lines before.A pencil drawing of airplane eggs hatching on power lines. In the foreground, four balls are attached to a line. The first is a closed sphere with a faint outline of a baby plane inside. The second is torn open, with a baby plane emerging. The third is hanging empty, with the freshly hatched airplane perched on it. The fourth appears to be unfertilized, with three hatchling airplanes all around it, taking bites. (Biologists call this a nurse egg.) In the background, a distant set of eggs can be seen on another set of power lines.Pencil sketch, as from a naturalist's sketchbook, depicting four possible types of airplane fertilization. In the upper left, two planes in flight are connected by a bumpy tube which is labeled "intromittent organ." (This drawing looks very similar to in-flight fueling.) In the upper right, two jets fly in close formation, belly to belly. Where their lower parts touch is labeled "cloacal kiss." Both of these upper drawings are labelel "aerial internal fertilization." In the lower left, two large passenger jets mate on the ground, one mounting the other from behind. No genitalia are visible. The drawing is labeled "terrestrial internal fertilization." In the lower right, a light aircraft flies low over power lines with airplane eggs already deposited on them. From the abdominal region of the aircraft comes a cloud. This is labeled "external fertilization 'dusting'".
