          Or, hear me out. Genetically modified bonsai orcas.

          “Isoamyl acetate is released by a honey bee’s sting apparatus where it serves as a pheromone beacon to attract other bees and provoke them to sting.[8]”

            Drones don’t have stingers. Queens and workers have stingers. Queens are from worker larva that are fed royal jelly that transforms them into a queen that is capable of reproduction. Workers are technically female but they’re closer to asexual.

            So, that badass enby ace bee gave that motherfucker what for.

              You are right if it’s a honey bee. There are many other species of bees that do have males with stingers. For example many solitary bees (live alone rather than in a hive) have stingers though aren’t known to sting people unless swallowed like in the OP.

              The British isles have over 200 species of solitary bees so it’s very possible the bee hero in question here was a male :)

                  I just learned about solitary bees a few years ago. For some reason it has never cross my mind until I was researching these unusual blue bees in my garden which turned out to bee Blue Banded Bee which is awesome:

        I was unaware that it is a sonic reference. I was actually referring to the German V-1 rocket that was nicknamed the Buzz Bomb by the allies.

        Edit: https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Buzz_Bomber

        Shit! Wow, mother of all coincidences!
