🎶I'm gonna eat you, little ~~fishy~~mothy!🎵

There is no one in my life who appreciates Red Dwarf. Your somewhat obscure reference means a lot to me.

It looks very pissed off. Maybe at the flash

They generally tend to look like irritated cotton balls.

Even more endearing, really - character is awesome

The song they sing:

Alas, that land, once blessed, now has diminished.

We, betrothed destined to be mothers, now become tarnished.

We have lamented and we have shed tears but no one consoles us.

Golden One, at whom you were angry?

Elden Ring was my first thought as well! Although I didn't know the translation resolved to that.

Fun fact: It's the only latin you hear in the game that actually translates to something other than Mogh's countdown from 3 to "nothing."

AND THEY SANG AS THEY SLEW, FOR THE JOY OF BATTLE WAS UPON THEM

Such a cuddly guy.

Me too, little bat. Me too. Gotta shine your little light on the world.

I didn't know that there were white-furred bats or that bats could sing. I got totally Bat Fact
