Sweetheart just needed someone to tell her she’s been a very good girl. But apparently merely “good girl” wasn’t quite enough. She has been through a lot, after all.
No doubt. You can see how she’s standing more erect, and you can see bit over Unity’s shoulder how high Sweetheart is holding her tail. She’s probably trying very hard not to actually wag her tail, and not quite succeeding.
Wearing a bee beard is definitely on my bucket list, in an embarrassingly high position if I’m being honest. I’m absolutely prepared to shave off my real beard and endure stings to do it. BEE BEARD!!
To be fair to Sweetheart, if she has anything in common with a few friends who have come out, and have been accepted, they’re more comfortable with who they are, often more confident and …a host of better things. We should be seeing some changes just based on that. Mind, this is based on my experiences, only. Others may vary.
Gavotte always knows just which button to press.

I’m still playing with the idea of putting a whole swarm into a VR world. If even one bee got out, and most worker bees only live about two weeks.
That tail must be wagging up a storm.

PErhaps they can use her tail wagging to move or dissipate A-Sig’s storm system.
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Which word? “Good”? ” “Beard”?
Inconceivable!
When this ends, the word will bee “INCONSOLABLE”.
I used to keep bees. It never once occurred to me to make a “bee beard.”
It is NOT on my list of regrets.

Definitely adding that to my list of things to do immediately before I die
The lab I work in puts bees in VR.
Seriously? That is pretty awesome
Oh no, advanced approval!

Now give Sweetheart a treat, Gavotte.
As far as Sweetheart is concerned, that was a treat.
Hard to discern what Unity means by “beard” until we know if she has eaten any brains recently… Either way, it’s going to be interesting.
Alas, Sweeheart. For all your hopes of self-actualization, in the end you are as much a slave to your primal instincts as a Tiptree protagonist.
Thanks. After a Google search, I now have another author who’s stuff I need to read.
You don’t need a beard, Unity. You ate the closet.
And just who was Gavotte a beard for?
Sweetheart just can’t escape her inner dog, no matter how hard she tries. When she actually actualizes, she will accept this.
Indeed. One cannot become truly self-actualized without self-acceptance.
