Mimic octopi will pretend to be lionfish sometimes. Did it work? Did he scare you off from eating him?

My little brother challenged me to make an octopus character! She's a teeny octopus kiddo named Bubbles 🫧

She's very shy and likes to try to hide from people by curling up and hoping they go away, it's her go-to defense mechanism. Her favorite food is crabs, and she's very expressive with her ears!

ok. a few years ago like in 2021 or something my friend and made some twst ship fankids and then i kept making more. three of them are hers i think so i will specify the, but i drew this specific stupid little map to keep track of whatevers going on here. no real plot or anything just concepts that i wanted to make a chart for. a multiverse i guess. dont worry about it dont think to hard about it. also the names were just based off the ship names for funsies lol they werent like fully developed or anything oK ANYWAY a brief explanation of each kid under the cut!

so it started with jamil/azul/idia actually. the other guys just kept spawning later lol uhh lemme see what i can remember.

and i had a second image where i'd drawn arrows on top of who is full siblings vs half siblings vs cousins but it was too tangled and also i forgot a bunch of arrows anyway so fsdlkjfjdskl i just left it out so if i sound like im referencing a forbidden second image and forgot to edit out that talk just. that's why lol.

ummm so i believe azeal, azidia, and treya-da were the ones my friend came up with, and i made everyone else lol. we did a little art of them early on but i dont wanna go find or post those 🤸‍♀️ umm also some of them are girls, we just ignore the fact that nrc is an all boy school cuz who give a shit. anyway heres what i remember:

jazzy-zu: she/her, first one i made i think, jamil/azul child. takes more after jamil in terms of athleticism- actually wait i remember we had a stats web chart somewhere too but i dont remember where that is and i dont feel like looking for it lol but i think jazzy was like, high energy and sporty, and has purple hair like azul [deeper purple maybe idr] and tan skin like jamil. i think shes a lil less academic maybe. more of a jock. her overblot i think was a snake hair ponytail + red eyes + fangs + tentacles bc shes also a half mermaid in general. she was maybe more of a prankster schemer and was my fave of the ones i made lol. i debated savanaclaw or scarabia for her but tbh thinking about it now i think savanaclaw is the way to go.

azeal [my friend's character]: he/him, the other azul/jamil kid. i think he was more azul energy and kinda posh lol. less athletic but maybe did fencing? i think the thing with him and jazzy-zu was he didnt like team sports like she does lol. he's in pomefiore. he maybe wanted world domination but i dont really remember. also an octomerman i think

jammi-dia: he/him, jamil/idia's kid. he's got more of a punk aesthetic and is into robotics i think? i remember drawing him with one of those custom furbys so i think he had more of a creative side. i think he was more intellectual and less athletic. i dont remember if he skateboards or if im making that up lol [there were more stats besides athletic and intelectual i just forget what they were lmao. social was probably another. i think generally none of these kids were very good at social skills tho]. he's in ignihyde so yea i guess he was the robotics boy. he maybe also had world domination plans but i also dont remember skdjfljdskl it was him and/or azeal.

Azidia [my friend's character]: she/her, an idia/azul kid. i dont remember as much about her, but i think she was a schemer. she's in ignihyde. was SHE the world domination character?? i swear there was at least one. possibly multiple. octomermaid.

idizu: he/him, i think he was the youngest of the ones currently mentioned so like first year age? i forget how old the others were but they're all within the first thru third year range. idizu was way more jittery like azul and into his robotics as well; i think he was kind of like a sidekick sometimes for either jammi-dia or azeal but i forgot which one lol. idk why i debated his dorm of ignihyde vs octavinelle bc i just think of ignihyde for him. octomerman. i think he was tiny and had like bright pinkish purple hair.

mallow: she/her, cater/idia kid. lol. i think this was the last one i made. i believe she/her. i cant remember why i drew her with pointy ears, hence the question mark 🤔 lol i dont think i developed her much bc she came much later but i had reopened the chart bc i was like WHY DONT I HAVE A CATER/IDIA KID IN THERE, but i forgot most of what i said about her. her name is a reference to marshmallows but dont worry about it, it's a very specific convo train between my friend and me that is cater/idia related but i just dont have time to get into it!!! anyway i think she was kinda like. not very social. a lot like idia but i dont remember what her caterisms were. SAD. i guess i put her in ignihyde.

KJ: i think he/him? kj bc it sounds like cayjay and he's the cater/jade kid lol. freak behavior. gets in your space and interrogates you very bluntly. kind of intimidating i think but maybe that was just cuz hes weird. i guess i went with octavinelle, thats where the shady ones go... i think i drew him once in merman form specifically as a wolf eel bc theyre bright orange, but actually just now i googled and the fangtooth moray is decently orange as well, jade is a moray, and cater described his own tooth as a fang tooth so maybe im overwriting the canon lol.

trey-daa [friend's character]: she/her, the trey/jade kid. was actually one of the first few made as well and was the only one that broke out of the azul/jamil/idia containment for a while until i thiiiink either kj or catie spawned. she's an eel mermaid and i think she had the combined energy of jade's smiling threats and trey's genuine care, so she was like Unsettling Levels of Hello Beloved Sibling And/Or Cousin Do You Need Me To Poison Your Enemies For You or something like that lol. heartslabyul apparently!

catie: she/her, trey/cater kid. like the only other human besides jammi-dia and mallow lol bc everyone else on this chart is HALF FISH!!! she was calmer than most of them. normiecore. she i think has a baking youtube channel to channel her parents hobbies. i think i defaulted to putting her in heartslabyul but i CANNOT REMEMBER why i have that potential octavinelle in there??? i drew her and kj hanging out once. she's friendly and probably the nicest of the group without hidden schemes lol.

tomaya: i do not remember the pronouns of this child. maybe she? idk. riddle/floyd kid made i think just bc my friend and i were like the popular tweel ships are trey/jade and floyd/riddle so we gotta have the cousin duo. i think tomaya's thing was that she(?) was like, polar opposite to her parents. floyd and riddle are kinda both really intense people so tomaya was more sleepy and reeeaaally chill. it took me a minute to remember why bc i first remembered one of the only times i drew tomaya was like, yawning and holding a pillow, and i was sitting here like "huh silvers not on this chart so why- OH YEAH to be an ironic different vibe lol". i dont know why we picked heartslabyul for her.

THAT'S IT but also. if i had space perhaps i would now add a riddle/azul kid. maybe even a jamil/riddle kid. get more riddle in here he's only got one!!! but if you leave me alone with characters too long i WILL find seven thousand combos to pair them in fjklsdjfkljKLJFKDLGJ ok anyway. um. spirals. maybe next time will be my caterella chart ok bye!!!!

The octomermaid tilted her helm as the male mermaid noticed her. She placed her hands back down, as she believed to have an idea perhaps she’ll speak with that one before continuing her own little idea.

She gave him a comforting smile and a small wink before pushing herself back inside the safety of the sea.

It was his life. To be moved around and treated like a prize won. He was not won, taken captive and forced to perform for the likes of the land dewellers entertainment. It infuriated him to no end.

The tank was larger now, unlike before. Room to swing and stretch, food that actually kept him from eating the smaller ones. He knew if he wanted to stay in his prime, he would have to cooperate.

Now he was in the middle of a performance. Making good work of himself and observers. The jewels shined back at them as he moved around the round tank.

~~Mermay edition~~)

While the land dwellers were distracted by the ill-gained decadence. Other mermaids were forced to entertain them. Feeling objectified, some were forced to swallow their pain to gain some form of survival... some in the back, not broken yet to this horrid fate of theirs. As the pounding bass was heavy the mermaids' music blared out as jewels shine and sparkle with the provocative dance work.

Just outside the sleazy underground club. in the waters, a curious mermaid pops her head out. Purple eyes, those wary of this place, couldn't help but be curious about this place. Wondering why this place garnered cheers and praise.

Dunking her head back down before finding a platform to climb up a little later. Revealing most of her entire appearance. A pink and grey octopus mermaid. She was older, but her looks were undoubtedly aged like a fine, rare whine. Purple eyes took notice of the blue with red markings male mermaid provocatively moving in front of these homans.

Despite the tacky music, the mermaids were also stunning but not happy. The octomer hugged her ample chest in thought, wondering how to cheer her fellow kind up.

Another request from a gorgeous Patron - octo-mermaid. I feel like our decorating tastes would be pretty similar.

Anahid's favorite color is vaporwave, favorite food is sushi, favorite bands are Duran Duran and the Gogos, she loves long walks under the sea, and dancing all night long to the best of the '80's.

It's Mermay! And here's my favorite version of Mermaid Donald all the way from Kingdom Hearts.

[slushrottweiler]

I wanted to play with the Mer!AU that @timmys-and-scribbles and @arcxus-of-altihex are messing around with atm.

Xan is a very shy fishy. Fish, cephalopod, whatever.

Special thanks to @glimmerblossoms for helping me choose what kind of sea creature Xan could be.

Happy New Year!! I'm kicking it off with my octomermaid I previewed a few weeks ago! She doesn't have a name. She was one of a few mermaid doodles I wanted to render. The struggle was real to capture the cuteness of my sketch in the final render, and my good friend Everett on twitter (https://twitter.com/ABS0LUTE_WEAP0N) was there to take my poor jokes and motivate me to complete her! She's been drawn a few times, so she's a new character. Ya'll may see more versions of her in the future. x] Thank you for all the likes and follows last year! My creativity left me at the latter half of the year, but I'm happy ya'll stuck around, and I appreciate it. ;o; I do hope to improve my storytelling in my illustrations and create more character turnarounds for references material, so keep an eye out for that! I have a few character designs in progress!! To a new decade! #digitalart #happynewyear #octopus #mermaid #fantasyart #octomermaid #splatoon #originalcharacter #characterdesign #blackqueen #blackprincess #princess #queen #fairytale #illustration #mer #digitalillustration #artistoninstagram #instadaily #instaart #creatuanary https://www.instagram.com/p/B63laqJDXKe/?igshid=1g4umlo6h0zw6
