So something happened in Biology today.

We were put into groups to do a project about Natural Selection, and my group decided to do butterflies and snakes.

I wanted butterflies because they are my spirit animal. Or so says the internet. But it actually make sense, so I'm going with it.

Anyway, we had to cut out paper butterflies and after cutting one out, my friend in the group said we should cut off the antenna because they are too small and would fall off or break anyway.

I didn't want to cut the antennas off. This was the ensuing conversation. Or at least my best recreation. For reference sake, I am Gundam. And my friend is Mahiru because she's kinda the mom friend.

"I have finished cutting out the two butterflies."

"We should cut out the antennas. They're going to fall off anyway."

"I... can't do that... they are my spirit animal..."

"Enough joking. Just cut them off."

"But they are my people! I'm a butterfly! Would you cut off the ears of your family?"

"Just... Just cut them out."

*silently gives her the butterflies with antennas still on them*

*gives them back* "You have to cut off the wings of your people."

"But they're my spirit animal!"

"And I named this one Jerry..."

"Just cut the antenna."

*sadly cuts the antennas off* "I'm sorry, Jerry..."

"There. That wasn't so hard, was it?"

"You made me kill my people... You made me a murderer..."

"..." *starts putting the antenna-less butterflies away*

*quietly writes 'Jerry' on the back of Jerry without my friend noticing*

*puts Jerry in the bag for our group's supplies*

"Bye Jerry..."

I felt like such a pussy.
