#SPECIFICALLY the Gold Dynamo

[crocuta1]

I drew Poptart as an idol for the funsies

I think his regular inkling name would be Rocky lol

Ough poptart you menace.... love himnnn

[goomyloid]

what splatoon weapons do you think the DR characters would main

ohhh…. let me think

kris: the obvious answer would be splatana swiper but to be honest i think they would use a more annoying weapon LMFAO. tbh i think stamper would be a neat choice

susie: specifically gold dynamo LMFAO... was it the spl2 kit that had the booyah bomb? 3? whatever i think she should have a booyah bomb

berdly: whatever’s meta at the moment LOLLL. 52 gal or nzap or pencil or whatever. he switches it up

noelle: one of the scarily good snipers…. scope user… but i can imagine she’d like brushes too for some reason

ralsei: something basic like jr or splattershot LOL

berdly would be super in the comp scene but be really mediocre at it. he yells the abbreviations and comp terms at everyone in vc and theyre all confused. noelle would be a really big fan of octo expansion. kris would too actually. splatfests cause a category 5 hometown school war over the different teams (but it ends up only being berdly and susie that care about competition)

[marquaismakesthings]

It's been a while since I've made one of these, huh?

Starting off with the Neon Tetra Dualies! The pun was there. I had to use it. While the design doesn't necessarily match the colors of the actual fish, I thought it would be awesome to have a set of vaporwave-esque tetra dualies. However, this new color palette does make them darker than the actual dark tetras, perhaps creating even more confusion around the weapon's kits and designs. This particular kit was made specifically in the name of distraction. With their four rapid dodges and the capability to keep firing as they dash, a wielder of the tetras becomes a perfect skirmisher. Throwing a torpedo before rushing into a fight just creates one more thing for opponents to focus on, opening up more opportunities for the dualies to create chaos on the battlefield. The Kraken extends this, being a mobile special that allows the user to displace and distract, either netting lots of splats, or letting teammates initiate a push.

As for the Luxury Flingza Roller: I took inspiration from those fancy-ass fountain pens that I'm sure everyone has wanted to own at least once. I personally think that the gold-and-black motif looks great on this roller, and I can see it being a result of a gear collab between Enperry and Foil (hence the logo on the nib). As a dynamo roller user, the flingza always feels ridiculously mobile for having the same vertical range. However, I do feel that it struggles a little more than other rollers when trying to attack someone who's on a ledge or behind cover thanks to its high reliance on the vertical flick. Enter: Triple Inkstrike. The special is great at area denial, being able to force opponents away from a zone or pressure them towards one. Splash Wall adds to this aim, being a sub weapon that can do the same thing, in addition to potentially allowing the user to perform vertical flicks at a safer distance.

phighting splatoon weapons gO

Part 1 - Melees

All Splatoon 3 kits because . I can . And Im to lazy to launch 2 on my switch or open inkapedia sO were going with the ones i have basically memorized from my competative days. That, and I did my best to match it up to both gameplay and personality!!! Its not perfect but hey, we balling.

Sword - Splatana Stamper Nouveau

Toxic Mist, Crab Tank

A decently close range powerful weapon. Splatana Stamper Nouveau was the best pick I landed on for Sword because of its kit. I was originally going to do vanilla chainsaw as it had higher movement, but I ended up going with the Nouveau chainsaw because of Crab Tank. Like Swords phinisher, it requires the user to jump out of the way and find a safe spot to launch the attack from, as well as incapacites them for a short while. Toxic Mist over Burst Bomb was also a difficult choice to make, but in the end, Crab Tank was to tempting, thought I do think Burst Bomb is more in character. However, with Stampers natural poking playstyle and manuveribility, its frontal reckoning force and very straightforward playstyle, I think this is the weapon Sword would choose to main in Splatoon 3. (I was pretty sold on Sword using Splatanas as his main weapon class, but I can also see him using short range Shooters as his secondary, like Splooshomatic!!)

Skateboard - Octobrush

Suction Bomb, Zipcaster

Another close range weapon, but it prioritizes movement and trickery in order to get your opponunts where you want them. See the resemblence? Yeah. Vanilla Octobrush was the kit that yelled at me the most for Skateboard in particular- its a rather rowdy weapon on the field, but its sneaky and unassuming until it gets close. And often, it will get close and you won't see it if their good. Zipcaster as well as Suction Bomb both seem to fit Skateboard's vibe as well, both being precise and timing based, with high priority in movement and chip damage. It moves freely without restraint, zipping around the field and muddling information and causing chaos. Perfect for Skateboard. Secondary weapons - Inkbrush and Carbon Roller!

Biograft - Dapple Duelies Nouveau

Torpedo, Reef Slider

Extremely close range duelies made to dive, poke, locate and display the enemy front line? Hello Biograft, how are you? I picked Dapple Duelies Nouveau over its more competetively viable varient Dark Tetra Duelies for one reason - Range. Biograft is extremely close range- its the epitome of timing and diving with team coordination. And since Biograft doesnt really have a personality due to being. A robot. I went straight for this duelie specifically. Its special is a literal dive element- you go in, explode, and try not to die on the way out. It just makes the most sense to me- but Dark Tetras are definitely a good secondary, as well as Duelie Squelchers!

Katana - Mint Decavitator

Suction Bomb, Big Bubbler

What, you wanted me to not pick the katana inspired weapon for Katana???? Like its right there. What do you want from me?? Seriously though, I chose Mint Decavitator for Katana for a few reasons- its slower paced playstyle, its skirmish-tank hybrid type, and its ability to poke all seemed very remeniscent of Katana. Its a precise weapon, one that requires time and dedication to hone its full potential as a weapon. It can stand its own in situations where many other skirmishers would fall, requiring timing and effort in order to be effective in battle. It all feels very Katana, the slow precision and the careful yet almost mournful kind of feeling. Secondaries go to Jet Squelcher and Squiffer!

Ban Hammer - Dynamo Roller

Sprinker, Tacticooler

Yeah ok this one is obvious if you've ever played Splatoon and Phighting. But I spent a lot of time debating between this one or the gold one- and I ended up settling on vdynamo because it felt sillier. See, Ban Hammer is, well, full of himself. Hes powerful, yes, don't get me wrong, but the wiki outright states that he has a habit of overselling himself and accidently looking down on other phighters who just kinda scoff at him and he doesnt really notice. So what if I gave him the weapon that requires more team play? Tacticooler, a special entirely designed around buffing ones team, and sprinkler, and Area of Denial or paintbot sub? With Ban Hammer??? It was just to funny to think about. Hed use both so selfishly, and honestly that just feels so in character so yah. Secondaries are obviously Gold dynamo and Big Swig!!

ill make Ranged and Support tomorrow im tired now BANFNSND plus i get image limited so Lemme know what yall think

[dank-noodlez]

Death Scythes If They Were Splatoon Weapons!

I decided to make a list of Death Scythes and what Splatoon weapon best represents them! Strange crossover, I know, but I thought it would be fun to compile this list and share my ideas.

I only added the well-known Soul Eater Death Scythes (the ones that appeared in the anime, not the others from the manga).

In this list, I chose their Splatoon weapons based on appearences, how similar it is to their weapon transformations, and if the secondary abilities (sub-weapons and special weapons) are anything like their specialized soul wavelength powers.

I'd be happy to hear your opinions in weapon choice for any of the Death Scythes if you have one!

Spirit Albarn: Charcoal Decavitator

It was kinda hard to pick one out for him, not gonna lie. There's no particular reason for him being a Charcoal Decavitator besides its dark color scheme and how similarly it functions to his weapon form, a scythe. Splatanas (katanas) and scythes kinda go hand-in-hand, right?

---------------------

Azusa Yumi: Custom Wellstring V

Azusa's was the easiest to choose. Azusa, in her weapon form, is a crossbow. Not only is Custom Wellstring V a stringer weapon meant to represent a bow, but it also comes with Point Sensor as the sub-weapon and Wave Breaker as the special weapon. Both Point Sensor and Wave Breaker are prefect matches for her Clairvoyance, as they reveal the specific position of an enemy player who happens to come in contact with said sub abilities.

Charger weapons, such as E-liter 4K, could also work well for her, as they offer far-ranged shots.

---------------------

Marie Mjolnir: Gold Dynamo Roller And Inkbrush Nouveau

I didn't know which one suited her better, so I chose both of them. The Gold Dynamo Roller is a heavy-hitter, much like Marie who can DEFINITELY pack a punch (she is nicknamed The Pulverizer for a reason, right?). Plus, just the shape and color of it are close to what Marie looks like in her weapon form as a hammer and tonfa. Don't have much to say about the secondary abilities that come with it, though.

I believe Inkbrush Nouveau is also a good choice because, well, its special is the Ultra Stamp. It's identical to a hammer, which is Marie's weapon transformation. She gets to smash (pause) EVERY unfortunate soul who happens to be in her path of unrelenting destruction.

---------------------

Justin Law: Tenta Sorella Brella

Okay... I know that this is a VERY odd choice of weapon for Justin. It was honestly difficult to even choose a weapon for him at all, so just hear me out on this one.

So you know how brella weapons can detach itself by the canopy and just run off in a straight line and hit anyone in its path? This may be a wide stretch, but it's the closest I could compare it to with his weapon transformation (which is a guillotine). Also, it's sub-weapon, Ink Mine, is similar to how he can set traps to slice anyone who goes through them.

Splatana weapons could work for him as well, but none of them really hit it home for me.

•

And that's it! Again, please feel free to offer an explanation if you believe there is a better weapon suited for any of them.

I might make more like this in the future. Perhaps for the meisters.

Power system updated - Ninja Storm AU

So the rundown, this is the chart of the powers system

Let’s start off with the outer layers

Energy Sources

-Ki is the essence of life, it flows from within and everyone no matter knowing of it has access the energy. Individuals practicing this can manipulate the elements and use ninjutsu techniques for various situations, it can be channeled when a person activates their aura which comes in different colors(Ex: Dustin’s being yellowish and gold with earthly dust, Kapri’s being pink with frost and icy chips). The power of Ki can also be amplified through the usage of Dynamo via its synergy with other people.

-Dynamo is the secondary source, mainly involving the expelling of the soul. This revolves around people’s secondary dynamic (ABO) coming into play with abilities and qi usage, it is a bit more difficult to master due to sensory overload but those being on part with using qi can do a wide variety of things, with this a person can use specific powers with amplifying their senses and performance with skills (Ex: the rangers doing team finishers or boosting their powers together). Also stronger if someone’s bonded with another person or cooperative(Ex: Hunter and Dustin in chapter 2 increasing the output of their elements together).

-Lotus, the third and most difficult source. This source originates not from a person but from the world itself, nature and world energy connected to everything and the elements. It is not really known much as practices of this have been inaccessible for a while, but legend does describe it as being extremely useful when mastered with the other two sources. This source is mainly utilized by the samurai and others associated in their affairs, ninjas are capable of accessing it but there’s a lack of information of the practice due to time scarcity and the dangers that come with abusing it’s power.

Elements and Techniques

Now when a person awakens their Ki this in return activates their elemental affinity, there are five main categories for these being Fire, Water, Earth, Air and Thunder. Though in a few cases some individuals may display having a unique element(Ex: Marah having Plasma and Kapri having Ice).

Some may wonder why there would be some other elements like Ice if Water has many uses such as solidifying itself but the thing is imitating that power instead of having it on its own doesn’t really give off the same experience. So in a sense Tori using Ice with her Water isn’t as effective as Kapri’s actual element of Ice, the same way with Hunter’s Thunder and Blake’s Lightning.

Techniques are the second basis to using an element as users are able to perform specific attacks and effects with these skills. Most being dubbed as [Element Release: ???], some tend to not be based on elements but can be used in a similar manner like the Iai move that Hunter has. Techniques can be learned two ways

-By teaching ones from the past that have been stored in books and old records, after gaining familiarity a person may end up adding some sort of unique structure to the skills to fit their own strengths.

-By making your own, a little harder as it takes more focus to really settle in a set form when creating techniques but this can pose as a good teaching lesson.

There’s more I have planned here but I’m not going to dump all that in one post, let it play out gradually.

Waw ni-bokdon - I cracked an egg

Or

Mendowzet

For the explanation for this piece its important to remember one of the interpretations of the figure on the left is that he's Christopher Columbus the Anti Christ, so remember, this is Columbusin so throw some salt over your shoulder after you read this. As for my sources, it fell off the back of a truck.

The main theme of this piece is the all conquering power of kwékéwesh, or love medicine. Love medicine sounds like some Captain Planet bs, but in reality anyone whose ever loved anyone knows its the most powerful, life changing thing you can ever experience, for better or for worse. The figure on the right I wanted to represent this. They wear a maid dress, a uniform many of our people wear as they work remedial labor intensive jobs. Skates on their feet represent our atheletes, super stars, who although live a seemingly charmed life, still are treated as work horses and are seen for the most part only for their athletic ability, not who they are. Jim Thorpe comes to mind with how although he was a gold medal Olympian, he died penniless in poverty. The clown make up represents our dancers and entertainers, who although represent a great deal of our culture, heal our people through song and dance, and are responsible for sharing it with the world, are also viewed by ignorant people as merely clowns dancing for their amusement. Within the figure though, keeping them together are stories from yatsokan and christianity that I and others grew up with, specifically dealing with Wiske and Zhesus, who I believe are both beings of pure love and compassion. (You dont need either of those characters though! You just need love and compassion!) These stories are kept within them turning them into a dynamo, protecting them, making them invincible. In the mendowzet sense, the clown is the walker to the bear

There are four themes, or stakes, holding up the theme of love in this piece which I'll go over.

1. The power of knowing yourself, your culture, and your people and how it can change someone who should be your worst enemy into your best friend. I hope you've been able to experience this, its very heartening to see the person who hates "Indians" learn to understand us and even end up loving us through speaking the language, knowing the culture, and introducing them to the people. This is what the figure on the left represents, I chose him to be Christopher Columbus Anti Christ because the message here is Love Wins No Matter What. With love and compassion in your heart, nothing can stand in your way, not even the Anti Christ itself. He is the bear to the walker

2. The joy of waking people up to the beauty of their own culture. This is what the eggs represent hatching into ducks represent. I chose ducks because im Citizen Potawatomi, Shishibini, the duck people. The figure in the middle with the hammer is a pais, little person, representing their unseen hand in rejuvenating our people and restoring our culture. If youve never gotten someone into speaking the language or seeing their own life or even skin in a different, positive light, you're missing out

3. Dancing with the devil in the moonlight. A very taboo thing in some circles, but in reality there is nothing to fear from the devil or even hell as long as your heart is ruled with love and compassion.

4. Menstruation. This is a big key part of this piece, shame has done a lot of damage to the world and shaming menstruators is, in my view, the most damaging thing done to Nishnabek people through colonialism. I wanted this piece to represent a sort of healing moment, where the taboo is revealed not to be taboo, but sacred. The old world has died, and a new world is being born. A root word for Mendowzet is mendowe, which means to menstruate. However, if you look on our dictionary online you'll see one of the definitions is "the evil one", which doesnt really make sense since the other definitions are simply "sorcerer" "enchanter" or "bear walker". However, you have to keep in mind the old saying "The Only Good Indian, is a Dead Indian" so it is very good to be the "Evil One", the Bad Indian. In my view as told through this piece, the removal of the taboo around menstruation in our culture and returning it to a sacred space is the return of Jesus Christ or Wiske finally waking up from their sleep under the mountain

Theres a lot of other deeper meanings but I dont wanna blabber on too much. I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I enjoyed making it!

[rockybloo]

I've been thinking about the Beloveds and the Flavor Four playing Turf War together and thinking about what weapons (minus Sweetheart and Bitterbat, because they've got their weapons) they'd use!

Honey would use any of the Brella class (they are basically shields) and Baby would use the Splatana Wiper, which is a sword. Dear would use a Slosher, specifically the Explosher.

Halite would use something of the Charger class, and Redhot and Sourpuss would use the Gold Dynamo Roller and the Bloblobber respectively.

This all sounds as accurate as I can recall when I played Splatoon

I also just realized that both teams in canon are made up of four characters which is similar to teams in Splatoon and all this makes me think of is Lovely taking the role of Judd when it comes to deciding who wins in turf wars

Quick Navigation: Rollers and Brushes

This directory has links to the main tags of every Roller and Brush weapon across the games.

Notes

This blog focuses on pose references over solely references of the weapon itself. For references of the weapon, there are many places on the Internet that let you view the full models, including Inkipedia!

Some tags may be empty as they are often added before images for the weapon are uploaded.

For a wider range of pose references, look at the tag for the vanilla version of the weapon. Alternate versions of weapons typically have less pictures, as the model is pretty much the same and already documented, just with a new coat of paint.

The weapons are classified with their english in-game name (NOA), weapon class (ex. shooter, roller) and potential specific identifiers (ex. Aerospray).

This could be the fastest race in women's 100m history.

The stage is set, the track is prepared, and the anticipation is reaching a fever pitch as the world gears up for the highly awaited Women's 100m race at the upcoming World Championships in Budapest Hungry. Among the star-studded lineup, four athletes stand out, each bringing their unique blend of speed, determination, and skill. Let's dive into the predictions for this exhilarating sprint showdown.

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce: The Pocket Rocket's Resurgence A name that resonates with sprinting excellence, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is no stranger to the world of podiums and championships. With an unmatched acceleration off the blocks and a finish that leaves competitors in her wake, Fraser-Pryce is a true force of nature. Having already secured 5 100m World Championships and 2 Olympic 100m titles. However, having dealt with an injury-plagued season coming from her knee causing her to pull out of specific meets can she regain her phenomenal form and once again reign supreme and defend her title. She currently holds a season's best of 10.82 seconds which she set in Luzern, Switzerland. The question is however can that injured knee of hers hold up throughout the championship if it can, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce will be in for a good shot at getting her record-extending 6th 100m world title.

Shericka Jackson: The Versatile Challenger Known for her versatility across different sprint distances, Shericka Jackson has the ability to surprise and dominate. Her impressive world-class performances in the 200m have showcased her top-end speed, but can she translate that into a victory in the 100m? She comes into the world championships as the world number one with a season's best and personal best of 10.65 seconds to win the Jamaican championships and put her tied 5th on the all-time list. However, Jackson hasn't been so consistent throughout the diamond league season but her coach Stephen Francis is a master of getting his athletes to peak at the right time so don't be surprised if she runs even faster come the world final.

Marie-Josée Ta Lou: The Ivorian Dynamo Marie-Josée Ta Lou's explosive starts and her ability to maintain speed through the finish line makes her a formidable contender. With a myriad of medals at the World Championships and multiple fourth place finishes at Olympic Games, she has consistently proven herself on the global stage yet she is still missing that vital global title. She's been looking better than she ever has this year with a season's best of 10.75 seconds which she has ran twice both times beating Shericka Jackson. Can she continue her undefeated streak through to the World Championships? Well her biggest enemy is herself as she tends to blaze through the heats and semi-finals then falls short in the final. Take the Tokyo Olympics, Ta Lou ran a then personal best of 10.78 in the heats then a 10.79 in the semis to ultimately run 10.91 in the final to finish in a disappointing fourth place. If she can manage the rounds better this time around a potential sub 10.7 second clocking is in her grasp and a potential gold medal seems to be in reach.

Sha'Carri Richardson: The New American Phenom Heralded as the new face of American sprinting, Sha'Carri Richardson's dynamic personality and blazing speed have captured the world's attention. Although she faced her demons throughout the 2021 and 2022 seasons. she seems to have finally conquered them as she's regained her footing with a season's best and personal best time of 10.71 seconds amongst four sub 10.7 seconds runs. However, similarly to Marie-Josée Ta Lou, she struggles to manage rounds as in this year's United States Championships she ran 10.71 seconds in the heats then 10.75 seconds in the semi-finals then ultimately ran 10.82 in the finals. It's quite obvious to see that Sha'Carri is a great young talent in the sport and as long she tweaks some minor issues such as her starts and aforementioned round management: she could most defiantly rise above to dominate the sport in the next few years.

The Dark Horses: Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Shericka Jackson, Marie-Josée Ta Lou and Sha'Carri Richardson have massively pulled away from any other competitors coming into these World Championships however, there are a few dark horses who, if any of the aforementioned four slip up, could potentially sneak onto the podium. One being Saint Lucia's Julien Alfred the collegiate star who currently holds a season's best of 10.83 seconds and a wind-aided time of 10.72 . Along with Alfred the ever-present Dina Asher-Smith holds a good claim to potentially sneak a medal as she is rounding into form perfectly at the time as she currently holds a season's best time of 10.85 seconds.

Final Verdict And Prediction: As the countdown to the Women's 100m draws closer, the excitement is palpable. Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Shericka Jackson, Marie-Josée Ta Lou, and Sha'Carri Richardson are set to captivate the world with their speed, finesse, and determination.

For my prediction, it goes as follows:

Shericka Jackson - 10.62 (PB) (SB (CR) (WL)

Marie-Josée Ta Lou - 10.68 (PB) (SB) (NR) (AR)

Red octo... favorite weapon types?

Splatanas (Wiper specifically)

Shooters (Octo-Shot and Aerospray RG)

Rollers (Flingza and Gold Dynamo)

[1esbianage]

Hydra is fun due to its goofy(ish) design. It has great range and the charging is quite reasonable as well as the amount of ammo in a single charge (is possible to get 4 splats with a full charge if all are in smallish area). It's also great because you don't really need to aim (like with the charger for example) in order to get splats. It is also fairly okay at covering turf (can you tell I play splat zones all of the time with this kit?)

I also love autobombs (go my minions!) due to them being able to get the enemy to move as well as occasionally getting a few splats.

I used to main dynamo back in 2, specifically the kensa dynamo, so I am able to use a booyah bomb semi-effectively (desperate for gold dynamo rn). It is great because you can kind of force your team to booyah back. :)

Overall, it is fairly good at dealing with enemies from a distance as well as covering turf. It's a great weapon if you like playing from the back.

Recommendations under the cut.

Main gear abilities: Tenacity, thermal ink, stealth jump.

Sub abilities: Main weapon ink saver, ink recharge up, swim speed up. (I die a lot so the stealth jump and swim speed is great for getting back to my spot).

Mode recommendations: Turf War, Splat Zones, Tower Control, Rainmaker.

Shouldn't be you're first choice: Clam Blitz (unless you're deadset on protecting the basket the entire game) and Salmon Run (best to stay near the basket and hope for mothership if you get this weapon)

Disclaimer: I am not the best at this weapon and this is what I have observed in my time of playing it in different modes as well as playing against other (much better) hydra mains.

It's easy, and often very tempting, to complain about weapons you don't like, so let's do the opposite of that. What is something cool and/or unique that makes your favourite weapon special to you?

X Y and Z for Julian and Sylvia !!! @whimsicalsins

𝐘𝐞𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐀-𝐙 𝐬𝐦𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐭

X - X Ray: What's going on under your muse's clothes? Do they have any special scars or places they like to be touched or avoided? Describe their physique and anything else you'd like to expand on.

Sylvia

She does not like the big scar, aka the one caused by the Maws, on her left side to be touched in general. She tends to lie on that side to prevent a partner from touching it, or just keeping a top on to keep it hidden. She’d have to know her partner extremely well and trust them to not only let them see it but touch it.

As for her physique, her arms are still pretty toned from when she used the Gold Dynamo Roller in turf, but they’ve gotten a little less muscular as she stopped using it. Her tummy has a little chub there, not something she normally shows off but not something she’s afraid of showing either!

Julian

Julian’s got a lot of small everyday scars from roughhousing with his Salmonid family, and others caused by O.R.C.A. and Mr. Grizz. He doesn’t mind if they’re touched, though he’d prefer it if it’s a gentle touch if they’re scars from the latter.

He’s pretty fit, years of defending Salmonid eggs and roughhousing with his family keeping him in shape. He’s got pretty good stamina too, and it’s improved since joining the NSS. Though when he was younger, he had difficulty keeping up with the Salmonids at first. He was a lot like a string bean lol.

Y - Yes: Do they have any specific turn ons? Things that will automatically make your muse say yes to sleeping with someone else. If not what are some other things that get them in a more romantic mood? Lighting? Dinner?

Sylvia

Not gonna lie, if someone who either doesn't normally sing or isn't musical in general tried to serenade her with like, actual thought and effort she'd melt. Though she also likes hearing her partner's voice, so something like dirty talk will work.

Julian

Toss him over your shoulder like a sack of potatoes and he's like "oh. OH." Julian just kinda likes to be tossed around a bit sometimes LMAO. Alternatively, wrestle with him and hold nothing back. He likes a bit of challenge.

Z - Zones: Favorite places they like to be touched? Are some less obvious than others? Any places they absolutely hate being touched?

Sylvia

Her neck to her collarbone (ha, even though they don't have bones) is pretty sensitive. So are her nipples since they're pierced. Drag a hand down from her neck to the collarbone and she's like putty. Same goes for her hair (head? tentacles??). Just kinda slowly run your fingers through it or lightly drag them and she'll love it.

Do not pull on her tentacles unless she's given the okay. It's a place she prefers to build up to if you're going to touch it. That also applies to the scar on her side, she will cry if it's touched without her saying its okay.

Julian

The inside of his things are sensitive, so having his partner kiss/bite them is one of his favorite things in the world. Tug his hair too, he really likes having his hair pulled no matter what he's doing.

He doesn't think he has any areas that are off limits, at least none that he's noticed yet.

Tell us more about Apricot, please? ^^ She’s so cute!

Sure! (Tw for bullying tho)

Her and brother Neo are both from inkopolis but more on the outside than directly from the city (could just take a 30 minutes train ride from their house or so) But the two of them moved away from their parents home to live together at inkopolis itself for a while (not like their parents were at home at all they have always been busy working). Now she lives at splatsville since she is studying at university there, Minni is her roommate and friend!

She got her humanoid form before other kids (similarly to Callie and Marie) specifically at age 12. She also always have had difficulty speaking to people of her age mostly because people tell her she is 'too much' (she is autistic and when she gets overly excited she happy stims and talk loudly) Sherbet was literally the first person her age who wanted to be her friend (even when they met online) and gave her the comfort she needed after being severely bullied (as in actually death threats or getting physically harmed like being pushed to almost fall of the stairs, them throwing a bucket of ink on her or putting rotten stuff on her locker or slashing her bag and ruining her notes or even stealing her stuff) for years at school (she never told her parents bcs she didn't want to trouble them since she always sees them busy. Neo did know and would go pick her up from school as much as he could and even protect her from bullies by standing between them and apricot and calling them out or try talk with her teachers and call them a group of useless pieces of shit lmao)

Just recently she been able to get comfortable with herself and be the ray of sunshine she really is. She used to be a bit timid and anxious since the was bullied but thanks to people like Marie, Minty, Sherbet, etc. She been able to open up for real (she still bottles up her negative emotions a lot)

She got recruited by Marie when she was 13 after she got out of school because she wanted to distract herself from school by doing some turf war but ended up following Marie down to octo canyon after noticing her. Marie cares for her plenty and was there to guide her not only in octo canyon but in her regular life as well

She is very smart when it comes to school and learning new stuff (she fully learned Octarian in a few months), talented and also strong (gold dynamo roller main). She is also very clean and makes sure everything in her room is spotless, and she also likes candles and just stuff with pleasant smells. She hates carbonated drinks and prefer natural juices and non alcoholic drinks

The way she met Sherbet was by playing tableturf online and she defeated him and he wrote an insult in the chat in octarian but she knows what he meant and called him rude and somehow ended up starting to talk together and becoming friends. Just recently they been 'dating' (after she moved to splatsville) but they really don't like calling it dating and just use the term 'my partner'

Sherbet is very important to her because she can actually talk about her issues with him and he will listen and hel, but other people like Minty and Marzi who lived with her and Neo for a few years were crucial in her life when she really needed comfort after school (Minty is literally like found family to her in a way and Marzi is her brothers girlfriend and they are very very close) but with sherbet somehow things are different and she can actually show her 'ugly' side without fearing rejection or such. Sometimes she can't believe he used to be a delinquent because she just sees him as a softie who tries to act tough.

Neo and her usually argue and act like they hate eachother but she misses when they used to be little and play together and Neo is actually always worried about her and feels sorry for being so busy with university and captain stuff and work that he can't really spend much time with her. His way to show love to Apricot is by buying her little gifts or stuff she needs. Like she would get back from school and there would be a box of sweets on the counter or a little gift with a note attached to it and it always ending with "stop being loud and lame" but in reality she knows he means 'sorry for not being around' when he acts like that with her.

Neo got mad at Marie for recruiting her when she was only 13 because she was too young but she insist that she stays as agent 4 because she defeated Octavio anyway while he was out (he also lost an eye when he got back after Octo expansion so like she was worried for him and all he does is just yell at her and the squid sisters because HE is worried for her lol)

Oh yeah she has an habit of taking Sherbet's shirts and not returning them (like cat hoarding socks but it's small girlfriend)
