Jan: I don't care how interesting you think insects are. I am not going to use spiderwebs as sex toys.
Hank: I wasn't actually thinking about sex. I just want to know how he manages to make it stay liquid in the containers and then harden on contact with oxygen. And also how the hell he ever managed to make a chemical spray duplicate the different textures of spidersilk -- it shouldn't be possible to do that with a single solution. You'd need at least two kinds of web fluids for the sticky and non-sticky threads...
Everyone else: *eyes glazed over*
Hank: Um. Sex. Right. How about manifesting the antennae during sex?
Jan: There's a reason leave those things off even when I shrink down. The wings are fun. The antennae get in the way.
