That brightly colored spider worries me. In nature, colors like that tend to mean "Beware! I am poisonous as fuck." Or venomous as fuck. Or both.

Or it could be something designed by a Spark. Which is even *more* disturbing.

Or of course "I am completely innocuous but look just like something nasty, so everyone leaves me alone".

Wasn't there a species of the same in Der Kestle in Mechanicsburg? Or something similar? The one who tried to eat Zola very nicely with a fork and a knife?

The "Variegated Knife & Fork Spider", AKA "Nyar Spider".

This one is more blue/less green, not hairy and "rib" stripes don't go all the way down its abdomen.

It's the female of the species. It's more deadly than the male.

IT DOESN'T MAKE ME FEEL ANY BETTER THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL SPIDER SPECIES OF THAT SIZE

*draws breath*

I'm arachnophobic, if you haven't noticed. (Although I happened to think the NYAR spider was kinda cute, with its cutlery and all. Wonder where they keep them?)
