fun fact: legs still exist on some pythons and boas. they're little nubs right before the tail that are pretty much vestigial - obviously useless as legs, but they've ended up having some repurposed use in mating. males have bigger ones, for hanging onto the females.
they're also weirdly sharp?
so buttersnakes having limbs is pretty normal actually

This is why they have those legs.
They like to dance.
Their arms are too small to grab for a handshake q_q"

Buttersnake arms are genuinely one of the best depictions of vestigial limbs I've seen in art, especially on petsites and in pop media. They're lovely
