#octonauts dashi x shellington

[batbitesthebat]

Okay I know Valentines Day is over but I still wanted to post one more little ship art. Just one more? BatBites can have oneeee little ship art, right?

DASHTON AAAAAAAA

I fuckin love dashton. I used to think it was not that great because a lot of Dashton shippers in 2020 were highkey toxic. (And before that- just READDDDD the fucking comment section on Dashis wikifandom page omg. Its insane.) But that has died down so now I get to finally enjoy the ship for what it is. Cute, sweet, wholesome bebes. Thats what Dashton is.

what are each of the octonauts favorite sports ?

Shellington: Wait Peso I thought you liked racing, since you did the Penguin Race? Peso: What part of all of that day made you think I enjoyed it?! Also Dashi place basketball with the vegimals in the books :]

!!!ASKS ARE MOMENTARILY CLOSED!!!

In WK x octonauts what would the octonauts think about creature powers disks

Hi, Anon! Good question!

So, in a scenerio which they’d see the discs and power suits in action (likely in the Wild Kratts universe where they’re all humans lol), I feel like their reactions would be unique to the character.

For example, Tweak, an engineer, would see it from the scientific standpoint. She, especially, would ask more in-depth questions about it (and let’s be honest, she would talk Aviva’s ears off). Not only are the creature power suits a scientific breakthrough… they are engineered. She’s wondering if it’s a science she can recreate/work with (not that they necessarily need it, but the aspect of matter shift is fascinating). I’m sure there’s a more scientific term for the mass displacement and whatnot, but I just got over being sick with the flu and I can’t think.

Dashi, of course, would find the idea fascinating- and would probably learn all she can about the power suits, discs, and their effects on the user and write about it in her blogs. And as you can imagine, there’s plenty of pictures/proof. Example: enhanced strength, elongated canines, and several other aspects of physical alterations.*

*(I think I referenced this before, but the characters in Wild Kratts, specifically Chris and Martin, have funny little character quirks. Martin had balanced well over 1,000lbs (453.6 kilos) on his shoulders in the episode, “The Blue and Grey”; Chris has that whole… Tasmanian Devil malfunction. Martin also disguised himself as a rock for a bit.)

Onto Shellington. Shellington, as a marine biologist, and seems to have an interest in biology to begin. So, when these people have the ability to possess the powers of other biological entities, it becomes fascinating. Because they are not limited to their own humanly bodies, and instead are altered to be able to adapt to the environment the animals they ‘transform’ into are from. He definitely has them transform into certain sea creatures to see if it affects their own instinctual patterns (which in some cases, it has been shown that can be the case). [This also applies to Pearl]

Peso is more freaked out than he is interested, insisting that it can’t be that healthy for them to be doing that to their bodies- in his mind, it has to cause wear and strain- especially considering the human body shouldn’t be able to shift and contort to fill the suits in the way they do at times (again with the mass displacement and redistribution). The poor medic is in a frenzy each time they activate the suits around him.

Kwazzi is enthralled. He would likely hop around all excitedly and insist that he tries at least once- in his home universe, he’s a cat! Why would this hurt him? And would likely go to Martin and ask (better if he uses the puppy eyes against him) to use the power suits. And at some point, he would convince them. Ends up borrowing Koki’s vest without permission and running off.

Professor Inkling is between Tweak’s enthusiasm and Peso’s concern. Yes, the idea is fascinating, the issue is the practice. By all means, this is something that logistically should be impossible. He has read this plenty of passages that involved theories, and legends of humans with animalistic features- but never… a suit that makes a human have the abilities and a mechanical appearance of a creature. He worries about their capacity, if their bodies can truly withstand these strains- but ultimately, his curiosity wins him over.

Captain Barnacles is… disturbed. He sees no necessity in this group of conservationists to be going through the trouble of… becoming a creature. There are easier ways to protect them- especially with the technology the world has with humanity (their own tech is a bit advance but also a bit outdated compared to the Kratts. Funnily enough, I think the Octonauts have more humanly limitations than the Wild Kratts do). It takes a long time for him to start expressing any form of interest in the discs and power suits… but he never warms up to the idea of them.

The Vegimals do not care, they’re teaching Jimmy how to make fish biscuits.

+BONUS of the Octo-Agents

Min would be utterly fascinated, in my opinion. She is very open minded about the idea, and expresses her interest through questions- and her own playful theories. Besides, it is basically a form of quantum tech, which is a theoretical science.

Professor Natquik quickly looks over it. He is more fascinated to test the Kratt team and their physical abilities outside of their suits. Their reflexes and intelligence specifically. While yes, it is fascinating, it’s the people behind the suit he cares about.

Panni is in the same boat as Kwazzi. He wants to know and try everything about the power suits, and isn’t quite reserved at all. If this guy can ride a mudslide down the side of a mountain, he will definitely wear and activate a power suit without caring about the risks. He likes the tech idea, but he doesn’t ask questions, he’s more focused on competing a bit with his friends.

Tracker would be a bit… nervous about the idea. It’s weird in his mind- why would a person want to do that? And he can only assume it hurts, right? Which isn’t good. He’d talk to Barnacles about his concerns- knowing that the older man would understand.

Is Ranger Marsh an agent? Does he count? I think, so I’m adding him. He was still using his radio for communication when he was first introduced, he sure isn’t going to approve of the Wild Kratts morphing their bodies with tech to match a creature. He does not understand how it works in the slightest, so he avoids it like the plague.

Calico Jack, as you can imagine, is between his grandson’s excitement and Marsh’s confusion. He is a ball of static electricity, waving back and forth on his feet when he sees it in action. It’s cool! But also super weird- but cool! And he’s everywhere, leaning on Marsh to tell him fictive tales about how he experienced ‘camouflaging beasties’ on the high sea that altered their appearance to look more like humans (he hadn’t seen a human before coming to the Kratts’ world).

Ryla doesn’t have a set opinion. As long as it’s not hurting anyone, she approves and finds it fascinating. No one has told her the suits can malfunction (do not let her find it out).

(I am aware I’m missing like two of the Agents, but… I haven’t seen enough of them to label anything. Oh. And I didn’t include the younger ones like Pinto and Koshi, just for the sake I feel like they wouldn’t ever step into the Kratts’ universe.)

Did you know that male sea otters show affection for a potential mate by biting her on the face? :)

[hammysamhah]

day 4- pride

[hannahstales]

I've seen little to no people talking about how the vegimals would react to dashton. I personally think they would help it move along.

I'm just imagining one day the vegimals all gather together and basically go "okay dad and Dashi obviously like each other. but they've both refused to admit it. any ideas on how to help them admit their feelings?"

next day the vegimals are all suddenly calling Dashi mom but in vegimalese. no warning too. they start off only doing it when Shellington isn't around but after like a week they start doing it in front of him. first time they call her mom in front of him, he's literally right next to her.

(Shellington and Dashi talking next to the water cooler thing in HQ) Tunip: *walks up to them* (in vegimalese) "hey dad! hey mom!" Shellington: *spits out water at Dashi in surprise* Shellington: *bright red with embarrassment* "what did you call her Tunip?" Dashi: *unbothered by the water spitting* "oh that's just a nickname the vegimals have been calling me for like a week. is there something wrong with it?" Tunip: (in vegimalese) "not that I know of" Shellington: (whispering) "he called you mom" Dashi: *blushing really hard* "oh"

even when both Shellington and Dashi tell them not to call her mom, they just keep doing it. even start doing it when they're not around. eventually they always call her that. not as a way to tell them to get together because they've already succeeded in that, but because its just what they call her.

even funnier after Shellington and Dashi start dating the vegimals then move on to calling Koshi aunt.

while waiting for the poll to end, I wanted to bless you guys with some sketches of the octonauts! After I finish my Kwazii x Peso drawing, I have a project already lined up, and it's a redraw of something I made this past summer :)

Anyways here are the doodles!

[voidellaandelements]

So i got bored at school and started making Octonauts x Reader headcanons in google docs, who wants me to continue and post them? Cause i might but i dont wanna get attacked 😭

Edit: just to be clear NO im not including the children in romantic headcanons, only family-like (platonic) headcanons

CALLING ALL OCTONAUTS FAN WHO ANIMATE AND DO ART

Since i joined the Octonauts fandom I have been making AUs left and right but the one I love with all my heart cannot be written in a google doc, or published on AO3/Wattpad. No, this AU deserves more.

My CIRCUS AU

is one i normally associate with a specific musical film about a circus (bet you can guess which one it is.) I decided to construct the story similar to the film The Greatest Showman, but also different enough where it isn't a direct copy.

In other words, I what I am hoping in launching this project is to make animations of the Octonauts according to the songs (if we can do all of them that would be great but if not, that's also ok!)

BUT, this comes with a couple requests: The story does have ships that I like. which are:

Barnacles x Dashi

Shellington x Kwazii

I am thinking for more ships to add.

THOUGH I want people to know that you can still work on this without having to do any of the parts that require shipping. Since to fill some gaps I plan on making a comic too, they will not be long they are just to fill the holes between songs.

ALSO, I would love others inputs as well! I'm open to suggestion to the story so don't think that when you join the project you have to do everything I tell you to, you can 100% request changes.

LASTLY, There will be sensitive topics talked about and planned on being added to the animations but you will be informed on which parts so you are able to obt out before production.

Thank you for reading this and I hope you would like to join. :]

Please help spread this around! :D

DM me for the Discord link ^^

Random Dashton headcanon i have because ilovethem (if u don't like the ship i'll put a cut below so you don't have to read it! :>):

In my hcs Shellington wears glasses and well, my guy can't quite literally see without them (he just like me fr 😿) so when he has to take them off for any reason (going to take a bath, going to sleep, washing his face, idk, something) he tells Dashi to remind him where he put his glasses after he's done because sometimes he forgets.

NO BUT GUYS TELL ME WHY THEY GIVE MARRIED COUPLE VIBES LIKE, WHY- I LOVE THEM AHHAJDJAKDJSK 😭😭💖‼️

(Dashton isn't my fav ship amongst the Octonauts but it's the second + my mom is a sucker for these two so most of the Dashton stuff i make is for her haha) (Also, you can see this as platonic or romantic! I personally like to ship them romantically but you can do whatev you want! I have no problem with how you see them or what characters you ship unless it's something like the Vegimals x someone or Inkling x someone, kinda depends in ppl's hcs for his age- basically as long as the age gap is reasonable :'])

[tweakdemo]

Look! fan children of my octonauts OTP! :O

(as always I forget to post my other arts here)

Meet the pubs! Arctic, Saorise, and Bently!

Arctic(blue scarf) is a polar bear cub, and the oldest of his siblings.

Saorise the middle pub, she's the one who's a hybrid breed, mixed with polar bear and sea otter from her parents.

Bently the youngest the baby of the three(under his brother's paw)

I would really want to get back into these 3 amigos siblings.

I hope u like them 🥺
