#dreamy talks#likeeeeee im sorry but the fact that the sudadera celeste has a spanish name even when the game is set in english??#and in the japanese version it has 'セレステ' in the name which is just katakana of Celeste (Light blue in spanish)#LIKEEEEE. same goes for the sudadera roja and the ocho octophones (blancos) but like#what makes me specially insane is that the Sudadera Celeste ALSO has patterns that are very common in south american indigenous cultures#I have noticed the most similarity with Aymara and Mapuche. the sudadera celeste has been driving me insane since the moment#i first saw it bc not only the spanish name but also cuz the patterns. were SO familiar. Like I have seen handmade clothes/tapestries/etc#with those EXACT same patterns it just drives me insane how familiar Splatsville FEELS as a latin american and i love this game sm#cuz of that ngl. It's just nice it kinda makes me feel at home almost?#also im just basically scrapping for crumbs of rep lmfoajfodnfod#I wish the wiki didn't (wrongfully) say that the patterns of the Sudadera Celeste are Inuit-inspired#they resemble native andean textile patterns much more...
