i am of the firm belief that heisenberg can't use a computer cause he'd brick it immediately with magnet powers

Considering his fucking ORGANS are what hold the magnetic field you might just be right

“Tinkers with home appliances (bad habit)” Me too, Marina. Me too.

(I wonder if Pearl has ever walked in on Marina sitting in a pile of deconstructed toasters with an absolutely devastated expression.)

Oh you bet it has happened

Hi! Are your request closed or open at the moment?

They’re open! You’re def free to send requests in if you want :)

My pinned post should say whether theyre open or not though?

but even though my own writing is sparse recently, i’ll still work on requests when i can <3

[splat-details]

Yo! Do you happen to have any interesting shots of the trains/train stations? Especially the one at the beginning of Sploon 3, I'd love to get a good look at it. (Are those flying rectangles in some Alterna levels meant to be trains? I can't tell.)

Thanks!!

for sure!! now that i think about it there are a lotta trains in splatoon, so i just took pics of a bunch of them lol

[liquidcrystalsky]

is there any info on what the texture on Agent 8s ankle bracelet says?

Here's the texture for it, and it says "INGREDIENTS"

[dr-spectre]

Found this on Twitter, sounds like you lol

omg send me the link of the tweet i wanna see the comments.

Also. TRUE!!!!!!!!!! SO TRUE BESTIE!!!!!!! Everyone gets Pearl, Marina, Shiver, Frye and Big Man correct but not them.

"Callie was kidnapped!"

*shows art of Callie walking towards Octavio's mark and an official relationship chart*

"Oh she was brainwashed!" *shows articles talking about hypnosis and how it's not anywhere near the same thing as brainwashing*

Literally took me five minutes to find sources to disprove it HAHAAHAAH!!!!!!

"Oh but Marie said this!"

Literally only in the English translation btw, not any other languages.

"But Octavio said he remixed her brain!" Not in the original Japanese script and in other scripts btw. Every other script aside from English and Dutch mention hypnosis. Plus he's a DJ, he says musical puns to describe actions. The remixing is implying he got her on his side via manipulation and not direct brain "washing". God.

People really don't care that much about Callie to even look at outside sources, they just see the English script and take it as is because "Callie is silly and Splatoon is silly." Fucking hell man. Not even people who deep dive into timelines, reviewers, NEARLY EVERYONE!

Why do you think people call her HYPNO Callie huh?! What do you think HYPNO stands for? Use the fleshy pink thing in your skull. GOD! DAMN! I know Inkipedia calls her brainwashed Callie and says she was kidnapped sometimes on some of the pages, but that's down to the site being run by multiple people who have different levels of engagement in different areas of Splatoon.

If i come across one more fucking person that calls Callie a dumbass or airheaded for putting the shades back on i will literally throw myself out off of the tallest floor on the god damn Burj Khalifa. Callie was suffering from an addiction and y'all laughed at it because the game poorly presented that idea due to time constraints.

You guys are so lucky I'm not also a massive Marie fan too... I would be doing DOUBLE the ranting.

omg when I saw this tiktok, octo!König was the only thing that came to mind!!!! https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGJn9LX3e/

(and he would for sure hate if if y/n ever bought it)

I SAW IT LIKE YESTERDAY AND JESUS HE WOULD

Octo!König is incredibly possessive over you, especially during shower time bc then it's the closest he can get to be in his 'natural habitat' aka the ocean while still being with you in your home, therefore shower time=his territory plus it means you get naked and he has all the access to your tits and body so it's a win for him!

So imagine his sheer shock when he saw you giggle and look at him with a grin one evening when you were already naked and under the shower while taking something out of a container and...the fuck is that. Just why are you holding another octopus?? While under the shower too?? And he just gets to see you naked too?? Yeah, fuck no.

I imagine that König would get extremely upset, like I'm talking hissing and grunting and squaring up to it while you just stand there and almost cry with laughter because your precious octo is upset over a soap ;;

[littlebluespoon]

Hey!! I hope your day is good! Can I request Octo!König with a bratty reader ?

My days been not too bad Nonnie, hope yours has been brilliant because I love this request! I also got so carried away. I just, I'm a brat this is what I want from life. So thank you Nonnie for letting me ramble away about Octo!König and Brats

tw: 18+ MDNI, sexual content, spanking, bratting, brat taming, cockwarming, octopus, tentacles, monster fucking, dub-con

We're gonna say that reader and König are in an established relationship of sorts. There's a bit of dub-con in the whole thing as reader was stalked and manipulated into it

König is willing to be lenient with you in the beginning of the relationship as he understands you're not used to giving up sp much control.

He believes that you're scared and doesn't want you to be terrified of him so in the beginning he deals with the bratting with time outs. He'll put you in the spare bedroom which only has a bare mattress on the floor and a blanket.

Any refusal to eat, even if its just something on your plate that you don't like will result in him force feeding you. He has to care for his mate.

After a few weeks of this König gets frustrated and that's when he gets mean. Spankings are now a daily occurrence and by the end of the day they're accompanied by time outs.

Remember that tentacle dildo? He's not above a little public humiliation, he will make you walk around with it in.

Speaking of tentacles, he loves shifting into his half and half form and using his own tentacles to restrain you.

He's used them to spank you before as well, the bruises his suckers left lasted for a month

He's not always mean though. He can recognise when you're just having a bad day and need something soft. Those days consist of movie days where he has you cockwarm him just so you're always aware of him but its still pleasant for you.

MAINTENANCE SPANKINGS

He will collar you so that even when you're apart you can't forget about him and you'll remember to behave.

Takes pictures of the bruises he leaves on you to remember them by and to remind you what will come of your behaviour.

When he's not in the best headspace and you're being bratty he will just cocoon you in his tentacles and use his human arms to soothe you. It's like a more restricted version of timeout.

would it be possible to get the models of the Octo expansion mem cakes? any is cool maybe either the idols or the standard inkling+Octo ones

The mem cakes appear to not be models, but actually images, just extruded forward a bit.

This does mean it's VERY EASY to rip all of them at once, and they're in this zip file:

https://file.garden/ZRWmCDccGFWyKuzh/memcakes.zip

Here's a couple:

[rassicas]

Do you have any thoughts on the Steelhead mem cake (esp. the Italian, Spanish, Dutch and Japanese versions)? I just think it's odd. Are the translations wonky? Did Agent 8 even actually come into contact with the Salmonids? I know about the trade between Salmonids and Octarians, but I'd like your opinion on this one.

I can't think of mem cakes that ive seen that are particularly "wonky" in terms of translation. translating poetry from one language into another poem with a consistent rhyming scheme while also keeping the main ideas of the original poem sounds INSANELY hard so giving credit where it's due. there's differences naturally, but generally a similar idea is conveyed.

All the mem cakes for steelhead are about love. here's a more direct TL of the japanese mem cake 「キミが好き」　そんなシャケ氏に　だまされて 生み落とされたる　愛のバクダン Such a Salmonid tricked me with an "I love you" and brought forth a bomb* of love

*double meaning? Steelheads are just called "bomb" in jp

Not all of 8's mem cake poems came from personal experience, as some are just based on knowledge 8 gained from reading about the surface in magazines like HaikaraWalker (the in universe version). Did 8 read about salmonids? Or did they meet Salmonids in a way connected to the trade agreement between the species? I think it's open to interpretation
