Apple from the tree of knowledge and Eris ’ Kalliste , which lights up in a white hue . According to an ancient myth , the Apple of Discord is the source of all their problems . Their methods of communication are unconventional , using small , yellow symbols mimicking 3664 emotions that they can feel through platforms with the logo of their demise printed onto them . Their interaction among species is characterized by instability and mood-congruent language , including spitting facts and venom .
The Sneet have psychic powers that instantly view or manipulate the thoughts of other organisms , and they possess the ability to group in collectives that prize deplorable behavior . Although they are very inclusive , they tend to devour new members , such as the female mantis does with its partner , just to nourish its offspring . Like the Nacirema , they are obsessed with an unobtainable anthropomorphic idea humans have created and therefore perform similar body rituals .
Like every pack , there is always a lone wolf ; like every herd , there is always a black sheep . Though they belong to the same generation , these do not usually appear to blend in ; rather , they stand out , especially to the rival species that is far more ancient , both in the way of thinking and the struggle to adapt . To the enemy , they are interesting , an opportunity to breach the collective to gather information to turn them to their species , interfering with their perception of the world and manipulating the exoskeleton that is supposed to protect them . First , it starts with antique alternating tones and pitches , then attacks spontaneously in dated shops , and follows through platforms from former , long-gone Sneets .
The Sneet are not a majority , or at least not a popular one , but a notorious one . They are a glimpse of a promising future , but they refuse to fulfill the prophecy , which eventually ends up doing the work by itself with the help of time . The rival species does most of the work to nourish the feeling of safety of the Sneet , and it often works by building trust and the expectation that one day , they will become like them . Metamorphosis , though natural in this context , becomes nearly artificial upon the contact of both species as one merges with the other . Paradoxically , in rare and common cases , they exchange places with each other –– the Sneet become their nemesis , and vice versa ––.
On doomsday , the expiration date in the Sneet seven-year life expectancy , most individuals have their last change of heart , choosing once and for all where their organs will rest for the rest of their lives . They must decide what path they will take after inevitably joining the rivals since , typically , they are received with care at first but end up being on their own ; and just as they were social Sneet creatures once , they have to earn their place as Tluda individuals again , or become the lone wolves they never were before .
