Just in time for Valentine's Day (again!), we have the timeless story of obsession and betrayal. The story of Ophiocordyceps unilateralis, the one who wants to reproduce and can't live without the object of their desire, and Camponotus ligniperda who is driven to distraction and the ends of their wits.#2: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Feb 13, 2018 [HINT]

I had Kylie Minogue stuck in my head for the entire solve, but there's nothing quite like a mind-controlling fungus!#5: robert svanberg (tango) on Feb 13, 2018

Beautifully drawn depiction of this macabre love affair. For some reason I can't stop humming the song "If I were a carpenter"#6: Lollipop (lollipop) on Feb 14, 2018
Fun solve with a *great!!!* title, description, and comment #1, not to mention the wiki link. Thanks, Joe. Thanks also to tango, for making me laugh out loud when I finally got his reference.#7: Gaynor Sorrell (gesorrell) on Feb 15, 2018
Great V Day post! I don't like much Restoration comedy, but this was a fun one.#8: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Feb 18, 2018
Don't get it and find the design awkward. One guess near the end.#9: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Feb 18, 2018
