I wonder how Grey's interactions with other githyanki looks like. I mean Orph may given them free pass, but hard to imagine all rebels would be accepting to squid.
I think they'd understand where the unfriendly rebel githyankis are coming from what with the historical reasoning behind their outward hostility.
Greygold would try to be as respectful and mature as possible while interacting with allied githyankis, and continue to befuddle everyone with their usual Greygold antics (which I can't for the life of me manifest any good examples for).
But Greygold wouldn't take it personally if the folks never come around to accepting a squid on their team. Truly, they'd genuinely be happy with whoever doesn't attack them on sight.
Greygold's got their Dream Piña Colada Friendship and that's all that matters. Don't need to make a Piña Colada Friendship with Everyone.
Really, if any githyanki so far as oversteps Greyg's boundaries, I think Lae'zel would be more upset than Greygold.

TES Summer Fest 24 - Day 6: Mirror
@tes-summer-fest
The mirror is vast and dark, like some great black strip of ocean, caught and trapped in a frame of warped metal. His father had brought it some weeks ago to add to his ‘Most Prized Collection’ as he liked to call it, Capitalised For Emphasis. The boy has to crane his neck all the way back, until he is sure it will make him dizzy just to take in the whole thing. It would have been the biggest thing he’d ever seen, if it wasn’t for the half a snow-whale his father keeps hanging above the atrium to impress guests.
He raises up one small pale hand and touches the frame of the mirror, expecting to feel the worn texture of the strange, silvery metal. Instead, his hand comes back inexplicably soaked, as though he’s just dowsed it in freezing brine. The boy gazes at his hand in wonderment, then back at the mirror, as if half expecting to see a watery shape pass across the glass. And it does. The eyes that gaze back aren’t like any he’s seen before, bright, and too many for him to counter on both hands, which is as high as he can go.
“Are you…a spirit?” The boy asks in wonder, eyes transfixed by the glowing golden orbs floating just beyond the mirror pane. “I am the riddle unsolvable. The door unopenable. The book unreadable. The question unanswerable." The presence speaks, words oozing between worlds. Hm, the boy thinks, and does not know how to respond to this, as he is only five. The presence seems to quickly realise its overdramatization and slovenly corrects course. “I am…a friend.” It speaks in what it surmises to be a grandfatherly tone. “A friend?” The boy asks. He’s never managed to find one of those in all the many halls of his father’s great collection, despite searching every room twice. “Yes…a friend.” The tone affixes with some simulacrum of warmth. “And friends share secrets, do they not?” The boy surmises this must be true, and nods. “Good, goooood…” The presence seems to draw closer, the hint of its colossal form too big even to fit in the frame of the mirror, drifting hazily into view.
“Now child, tell me all of what you know about your father's collection…”

every so often I see people who believe that The Entire Octarian Army is Female Only. sometimes simultaneously inventing very weird new forms of gendered oppression to go along with it. when DJ Octavio (male octoling) is right there. He's at the head of it. He's a guy? His squad of elite attack lesbians (the takozones) does not represent the army as a whole even if they're the only octolings we see not in swim form. People's eyes simply glaze over him. It would be like if people insisted there are only female squids because all the idols are female [Craig Cuttlefish continues to exist right there]

who do you think you changed the most in your rewrite from canon?
Probably Nicole and Katelyn, but also Dante and Nana.
Mostly Nicole, though. Even though MCD was where my inspiration for her character came from, technically.
Because in MCD she hits her child and it's played off as comedy. That is not comedy, and if thats how she acts towards her child then thats fucked up and I'm going to show how fucked up that is!!! I hate the "abuse as comedy" thing that Jess had going on. Making the "jokes" realistic is my specialty.
^ Same situation with Katelyn and her treatment towards Travis. It was never funny, and hitting people shouldn't ever be treated as jokes.
For Dante and Nana I literally just gave Dante a consistent personality and made Nana... not weird?

imagine if like. splatoon 3 had a cafe minigame where you made drinks and snacks (kind of like the one in acnl) literally imagine the possibilities. it could be a way to make extra cash if you’re tired of the online modes. it could be offline so if your internet goes out you have an extra option for something to do. you could make drinks for different characters like the idols or the shopkeepers (maybe even the past shopkeepers too). idk the cafes have been a part of the hub world in every splatoon game so far and i wish they would have an actual function. especially since the one in splat3 has an actual entrance it’s like it’s screaming “make me into an actual building you can walk into”

Actually, I’ve been focusing on the asks a little too much I think and not having enough fun
I’m taking back the reins, ya’ll are gonna see so much forneus and Heket art you won’t even survive it (if you're good I will consider things such as Narilamb, Leshycat, The Angst, Squid husband)
This is but the start, and a warning
