Oh is this your main blog??? I sent an ask on your other one lmao

Haha, it’s alright hun! I usually only respond/comment through my ASA blog so people on the Octonauts tag actually recognize who I am. I don’t get much foot traffic on my other main blogs lol. You seem very sweet as well, thank you for the compliments I truly appreciate it.

[kleeklutch]

The Same Thing Happens Every Morning

My 4yo and 6yo share a room. Whenever one wakes up, he will call out to his brother until he finally wakes up and answers. They're sweet, but such turds to each other. 4yo: Asa. 4yo: Asa... 4yo: ASA! 6yo: What?! 4yo: Good morning! Wanna play with me? 6yo: Nngh...yeah. Let's go watch Octonauts.

I suppose it’s official now, the Octonauts and their friends are going to be answering questions from now on. I may pop in every now and then but hopefully I can get the ball rolling and get into their heads for once! (That sounds creepy)

Notes:

I put the ID together because I thought it would be funny if he made up a name for his military license because “Pirates don’t have last names”. With Dashi’s help, Kwazii Gilbert will never see the light of day again and Kwazii Navarro is definitely getting a new ID issued.

I had at least three people who asked me this question so I gave in. I spent literally all day on this. I am so tired, but at least I have YT. I’m so glad to have finished this because this was my final day off for work this week and I was NOT gonna have time to do anything else.

I suppose this is also a farewell post to Netflix Octonauts, I gave in and bought the dvd sets because I’m tired of dealing with Netflix. I know I’m weak I’m sorry.

A special thanks to @what-is-my-aesthetic and her new Octonauts video. Because otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to actually finish this post, I would’ve given in a few hours ago. I’ve been following AthenaP for a while now and dang does she know how to make me laugh! Go check her out and give all of her videos love, she puts so much time and effort into making her videos definitely one of my very fav creators!!!

Episode(s) Featured: “ The Amazon Adventure ”

(Still playing around with Emma’s color palette if you couldn’t tell lol)

I can’t believe how far I’ve come from drawing these two. Like, both of them look so much better than when I first drew them it’s insane. Literally a year and my entire style has shifted and it totally shows! Ofc I’m still learning, anthros are still an entirely new territory for me but I’m having so much fun learning how do draw them!

Old Style:

(Sry it’s fuzzy I literally just went to the top of my blog and copied the pictures that were already there instead of going through my files cause I’m lazy)

Like I mentioned before this was the very first scene I ever came up with and it took me about 1-2 years to actually create it. I’d like to also try recreating MEOMI’s style again because I wanna redraw Emma so she isn’t terrifying lol.

Emma and Barnacles have such a special place in my heart. Their connection is beyond words (which sucks for me because I have to create words in order to explain it lol).

My goal is to have more interactions between all of the characters, I’ve just been so busy with all of my new ideas I keep forgetting about my old ones. I especially want to draw Tweak and Dashi more often. I just gotta find time to do it.

I’m still deciding what to post next week, ngl I have some Y.N. / Fae childhood content I’ve been dying to transfer, but I keep forgetting about it. That and I have those headcanons to make, bleh.

Anyways have a good day my darlings, drink lots of water and yes . . . touch grass. You have to because I told you to. >;3

💙🍪

(I really gotta make a size chart for these guys, this is getting ridiculous)

A.S.A. Octonauts Headcanons:

Pt. 1 — Barnacles (1/2):

Childhood & Younger Years . . . ft. Barnacles’ sister Bianca

His full name is Barnacles Dour Seaver II, he was named after his (now) late father.

Bianca’s real name is Sedna Denali Seaver and was named after her great great grandmother. But when she went to college in the UK no one could pronounce it so she changed it to Bianca.

Her mother happened to do the same thing at her age because of the social standards of having a “normal” name.

Barnacles respects his sister’s wishes to call her Bianca, at least in public, so Sedna has become more of a family used name.

Barnacles grew up in their family Lighthouse with Bianca, his mother Beatrice, as well as their father and grandfather. The lighthouse was built by his ancestors to help wayward boats up north and has been cared for, for over ten generations.

Their family actually has native blood running through them, and have always lived quietly beside the ocean. Only when the lighthouse was built did they officially settle down. Before that they were travelers and participated in special hunting traditions and ceremonies.

In order to continue those traditions Barnacles’ family, as well as many others, meet together once a year to hunt on the sea ice.

Their father was a trades/fisherman within the markets of the north. Unfortunately one year their father’s ship disappeared in a horrible storm when Bianca and Barnacles were only seven.

Their grandfather eventually died some weeks later from heartbreak. That’s when their Auntie Juliette decided to come live with them. Their mother got very sick due to her own ailing heart, forcing the twins to grow up faster than they should’ve in order to take care of their mother.

Natquik, in his own way, became the father Barnacles needed and was always there when it was most important, especially when it came to the rest of his family. It’s because of Natquik that Barnacles was inspired to join the military (or in this case the navy).

Natquik was the one to teach him how to play the Accordion.

A few months after his father disappeared Barnacles fell into the ice hole, it was a very vulnerable time for him. It took several hours for the scouts to get Barnacles out, even then they were still forced to get their scout leaders because of how unstable the ground was, as well as the lack of supplies. He was always grateful to them, especially his sister who refused to leave him behind.

Because of where they lived they had very few friends growing up, and most of them were polar bears. Boris was the first friend he ever made that lived in the ocean, sparking his curiosities about the world beneath the waves.

He did his best to work hard in his studies, hoping to grow his knowledge on the ships that sailed past his little island home.

Barnacles and Bianca made a pact when they were kids that they would always be there for one another no matter where they went in the world. And they keep that promise to this very day.

Barnacles joined the navy as soon as he was old enough while Bianca went off to study English and Social Sciences in London.

By that time a Professor by the name of Lwazi Ntuli had created specialized suits for creatures who otherwise wouldn’t be able to breathe/function in places that weren’t their natural territory. And to test them they were given out to those who earned scholarships from out of the way places such as the Arctic, Antarctic, the seas/ocean, etc, etc.

While studying abroad Bianca rekindled her relationship with an old friend (another polar bear) who was also studying in London at the time. After some odd years they fell in love and married, he eventually became Orson and Ursa’s father.

Unfortunately only a few months after Bianca announced that she was expecting, they got in a car accident and her husband passed away within an hour of arriving at the hospital.

Barnacles didn’t find out until after the twins were born. It shattered his heart to see his sister like this, and he promised himself that it would never allow himself to loose contact again.

Bianca and the twins now live with her mother Beatrice and Auntie Juliette in the lighthouse. Bianca now plans to raise them as she works on her novels. While Barnacles is set to protect the world, Bianca is preparing to take on the role of lighthouse keeper to protect the ships that her ancestors were so keen to watch over.

The Seaver Family:

Barnacles Dour I (Father, Deceased), Beatrice (Tribe name unknown, Mother) Barnacles Dour II, Sedna Denali (Bianca, Twin Sister), Orson (Nephew), Ursa (Niece), Natsiq (Nati, Brother-In-Law), Auntie Juliette (Beatrice’s Sister, Tribe name unknown), Sesi (Grandfather on his dad’s side, Deceased), Lusa (Grandmother on his dad’s side, Deceased–Died before the twins were born)

(Beatrice’s Mother/Father, Deceased. Barnacles and Bianca never had a chance to meet them. Their mother doesn’t talk about them very often. Their grandparents were very dear to their mother and aunt.)

A.K.A. the “Beach Episode”

Yes Dashi’s foot was like that in the sketch . . . Deal with it I’m not spending another 20min trying to make it look normal.

Emma has “Soccer Mom” energy whenever they go out in public. It’s truly a marvel to behold.

Dashi is so patient with Kwazii. I love seeing a vulnerable man.

Did I forget that Dashi had tattoos until I brought up her main ref? Nooooooo neverrrrrrr!

Da babiessssssssssssss

I love them all dearly and its because of them I don’t have a solid timeline for this dang story. . . 🥲

I had a mental breakdown trying to put stuff together for the Asks so I decided to post something I had already sketched out, and I mean . . . seratonin am I right??? I totally don’t have baby fever rn, no sirrrrr.

😭💙😭💙😭💙

(Aight it’s literally like 3:30am and I have work at 10, Imma go sleep now, thanks insomnia) 🙃

Also before I go— Rosie is Voyager Black Crow’s niece (aka his adopted daughter) and I would destroy the world for her happiness. Just thought I’d put that out there.

( Don’t remember Voyager is? Here’s the main A.S.A. post . . . )

(More doodles n'stuff below the cut!!!!!)

Anon . . . Whoever you are . . . I am so sorry. For no reason at all my brain went into FULL panic mode every time I thought about your ask. I literally had a mid-life crisis over it, I’m not joking. (Also I didn’t realize until after it was drawn how grainy the jpeg ended up, that’s because I made the canvas a billion times smaller than usual! 😅 (Stupid Procreate, Stupid Math)

(I ultimately decided/forgot to actually add fish to the scene that's why there are bubbles instead. I'm not about doing extra work when it's literally 7hrs into the project)

Tunip Redesign (of a Redesign)??? 👀👀👀

-

It really went . . .

Shellington: Autistic Powers Activate!!!!

Tunip: Father they must know the holiness of the biscuit fish!!!

Fae: AHHHHHHHHHHH

Y/N: Not again . . .

Bonus:

(Poor Tweak has no idea what’s going on, Sry for the bad handwriting it’s 2:40am I’m not conscious enough to write well)

Note:

[ For context Fae *cough, cough* “me”, has major Thalassophobia/Aquaphobia (Fear of deep water/water itself “swimming, being near/in water, concept of deep water”). Which also plays well with my Galeophobia (irrational fear of sharks—yes yes I’ve heard everything and seen everything to justify sharks (orcas don’t help omg). I truly do love them and everything they do for the environment but just looking at pictures/videos of them sends me into a spiral. This is an actual fear stemming from childhood)

It’s actually been a real struggle in my life because I used to be such an avid swimmer when I was a kid. So this is my way of coping with my fear . . . by making fun of myself for comedic relief. You’ll see more of this play out in my doodles and anything involving Y.N. & Fae ]

In another life I may very well have been a Marine Biologist but nope, I get to work in a retail kids store at $10.50 an hour :)

Bonus of the Bonus:

(For fun, duh)

(For those who can’t read my handwriting lol)

“ Literally having a heart attack because the whole village went off to look for her. Just glad she came back. Poor Saídê. ”

(I think it’s hilarious that I felt the need to still say how old Fae was even tho Saídê would know that)

I want everyone to make a comment (I’ve got a banana pointed at your head you better listen 🍌) about their favorite fish 🐟🐠 AND their theories on Y.N.’s lore!!!

~

I have so many excuses as to why this didn’t come out yesterday. You have no idea the heart attack I had when I realized I hadn’t even started the digital version! Blame my cats . . .

Anyways~ Here’s Y.N. & Fae loreeee!!! — Who is Saídê? Why is Y.N. in such rough shape? And why does Fae have a knack for causing problems??? Tune in to find out more! (lol)

Pt. 2 may also not be on time either. I have a flight to San Jose CA with my dad tomorrow morning for his Birthday trip, and won’t be back until Sunday so it’ll be a minute before I’m able to really sit down and do anything art wise.

Trip Rant:

I’m super excited for this trip because 1. It’s with my dad and he chose me, his oldest daughter (out of all four of his children), to go celebrate with him. 2. We get to go see the 49ers play as well as the UHC! 3. . . . I GET TO GO TO AN AQUARIUM AND NERD OUT WITH FISH!!!!!!

So I’ll be putting stops on all my projects just so I can enjoy time and relax with my dad!

Illustration time . . . How should I know??? Maybe like 30min???

I figured I should feed my followers some content because I had a few mental breakdowns as soon as I said I was coming back to—y’know—actually making the content. It’s been a long few weeks I just wanna lay down and watch Moomin . . . maybe have a cry-sesh . . . maybe both . . .

Will I do this digitally . . . yes . . . right now? No. Why? Because I started it and yes I hate it and yes I had a mental breakdown. THEY DON’T LOOK AS SQUISHY AS THEY SHOULD DIGITALLY AND IT UPSETS MEEEEEEE!!!!! 😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔
