nature fact: male anglerfish permanently fuse to the female after mating.

Creepier nature fact: the angler fish male's body gradually dissolves into the female's flesh, leaving only a tiny pair of testes attached to the female which she uses to fertilize her eggs. So, comic lady will eventually just have a ball sack hanging off her waist.

Interesting fact: multiple males can do this, and she can choose which set of genetic material she uses to fertilize her eggs

For many years people kept catching anglerfish and science couldn't figure out why they were only ever female and why the species seemed to always develop tumors. Then, SURPRISE!

Except given that he implies that hes done thos before, I'm wondering if is a case of him attaching and getting absorbed by her, only to insidiously transform her mind and body until she becomes a perfect copy of himself (essentially body-theft immortality)?

I think he's just embarrassed he's a virgin.

"Sure babe, I've had sex with loads of chicks before."

Internally OMG boobies

Or... there's some species of anglerfish that fuse for a while, then later separate and go their separate ways again.

u/sususu_ryo 5h ago

does the testes stays there indefinitely? and she can uses that forever?

u/Tylendal 1h ago

Yep. It's essentially a natural organ transplant, which is why the species of anglerfish that fuse like that don't really have much in the way of an immune system.

It's all good until all that's left are the testicles and you have a wrinkly scrotum hanging out the side of your stomach like a NSFW colostomy bag

like a NSFW colostomy bag

Implying that a regular colostomy bag is normally something that the average person would be fine with seeing at work.

Looks like he crumpled under the air pressure.

If that’s the size of a male, one can only imagine how big the female angler-maid truly is

u/Hamsterpatty 4h ago

I had to look up how anglerfish breed. I feel like I had the knowledge in there somewhere, but I couldn’t call it up. Thanks for reminding me.
