Watch your step!
Will and Louis belong to @peachnewt and her series, Getting in Deep.
#g/t#giant/tiny#getting in deep#gid#drawns#louis patriarch#william james rowe#I wanted to doodle them but not put a ton of detail into things before work#so here's That#I know it's mermay I will try to draw them for the nautilus or h2o au soon#also do NOT worry. this just happens.#it is very easy to lose sunglasses at work#luckily he has a fanboy to help pick him up and hide him in his hands until he can get back up to size#if he even wants to get back to size after this. I don't know. falling asleep in the crook of Will's arm while he works on paper work#and getting easy infinite coffee + copious amounts of snacks to relax with#seems like a very good deal to me

The argonaut octopus is pelagic, and unusual in that it lives close to the ocean’s surface and that the females secrete a paper thin protective shell, which is unique to the genus.

Chibi Danila WIP
#wip#брат#I'll rearrange his proportions a bit because I'd like him to fit in with the chibi I did of Travis#I also might add a watermelon next to Danila's feet but that might be too much detail especially compared to Travis#plan for the background is grey muddy photos of St.P with maybe some effects to make it look like ripped up photos#with a row of nautilus shells made to look like paper cutouts behind him#I might makes chibis of Qinawi Cairo Station and Danny Christmas Evil after that#also I think I'll start using cyrillic spelling for the main tag of brat stuff because it feels more organized somehow#even though it means I have to pull up the cyrillic keyboard website or the movie's wikipedia page everytime#I like to use the tags to throw in my random threads of though that don't deserve proper text with no concequence#I love you tumblr tags

Simple Cover artwork for a biology document/project I’m writing to channel my concentrated autism into (For the good of mankind). Might replace it or greyscale it, but it’s fine for now.
#I’m writing a literal scientific paper on the cartoon kids’ game cephalopods#I’m being serious it has a glossary and table of contents#I might post it when it’s done someday if you guys want that… all the art and diagrams and whatnot i made myself#my art#xeno tag#Xeno inkling#Xeno octoling#Splatoon#squid#octopus#nautilus#too lazy to tag the rest it’s late

Paper Nautilus? Those boys are lovely and I feel like they're SO underrated
Daily Cephalopod #6
These are Argonauts! (Also nicknamed The Paper Nautilus)
To spread some Argonaut love, here's some cool facts!
The females grow much larger than males (about 8 times larger) and they produce a thin eggcase, or their "shell"
Females can mate and reproduce multiple times in their life, while the males only mate once and die shortly after
The males mate by removing their hectocotyl arm, which is then stored in the females eggcase!
The hectocotylus is the modified tentacle on male cepholpods that is used for mating and it was first discovered on an argonaut! (although it was originally misidentified as a parasitic worm attached to the mantle of the female it was discovered on)
The nickname 'Paper Nautilus' is quite misleading, because Argonauts are actually octopuses!
Argonauts have often been observed floating with/on salps, jellyfish, plant debris, driftwood, and even other argonauts at all stages of life!
Argonauts do not reside near the sea floor, they tend to drift closer to the surface and are the only known pelagic octopus!
Like many other octopuses, they have ink, they can change color, and they have venom!
