Something fascinating about the metamorphosis: in the chrysalis, the caterpillar completely turns into liquid goo. However, it seems the butterfly keeps memories from its caterpillar life.

Here is some "source" I could quickly find on the subject: Butterflies remember caterpillar experiences | New Sientist

By the time they catch up to her she will look like a granny

I took this as "they want to look like her" rather than "they want to be butterflies to hook up with her".

Yes, it is.

That's also not really relevant to my comment.

Your innocence is a breath of fresh air.

I am genuinely confused now.

I took the comic to mean "these male caterpillars see a female-presenting butterfly and wanted to be butterflies so they could look like a curvy butterfly-babe"

Rather than "these male caterpillars want to be male butterflies to butter-bang"

I am unsure why someone down voted, I am just confused how my comment is "innocence"

Its ok Sarge. You’re good. We’re all just cracking jokes about a comic about butterflies.

I think SARGE got it and isn't being ignorant about anything.
