Summary

Force Osik can make things difficult and decidedly strange. Sith versions of Cody, Fox, Thorn, Thire, and Stone get switched with the bodies of their alternate selves that are from a near cannon timeline… They decide to Help Things- and manage to kill the Chancellor. Meanwhile the vod’e that they switch with are trying to get back home and hop a few universes before getting switched back… after the Sith versions kill the Chancellor.

Snippet

"Oh yes- and then have the might of the Alpha's sweeping through the Guard- and having the rest of the GAR of this galaxy find out as well and deal with the fall out- if not us, then when we switch back with our alternate selves, they will." Fox says with a snort.

Fox with a wince, his ribs are tender, he should not have laughed like that continued to speak after a breath or two, "If they were badly treated before and no one outside the Guard knew, perhaps they had reasons for it, as misguided and flawed as they likely were. We do not want to kark up their lives too badly when they come back.... If they can come back."

Thorn and Stone can see his point, but also, their plan to Kill the Demagolka was almost ready- all the information, all his dirty dealings, mistreatment of vod'e- and nat-borns, with the latter being the type of sentient that the wider galaxy will likely care more about, rather than the replaceable meat-droids, that they are called.

Covering all of one’s bases before toppling a powerful Sith is important before you take them out. The power vacuum that will happen, which will cause waves, and they are still trying to find the other plans that The Sith Demagolka has in place, finding them and trying to subtly defend and destroy them.

They have gotten half of the Coruscant guard's chips out, to prove that the so-called behavioral modification chips are unnecessary. Kote had gotten his out, once he had learned of them, not wanting to have such a thing in his head for a moment longer.

Thire and Thorn had managed to accidentally (on purpose) run into their c'yare Dogma and Tup while at 79's. When the higher-ranking pair are out of their armor and in their greys and had managed to speak with them for a while. Make the start of a connection. Kote had the easiest time speaking with his, the lucky shabuir, what with ARC Captain Rex working with him regularly.

Then something odd happens, things get strange, and Tup with a Medic named Kix are sent to Coruscant- because of Tup's irrational behavior and him shooting at a Jedi - and his seeming lack of understanding what is going on and only rare moments of lucidity.

Fox has one of the Corrie Medics check on Tup- and once he is sedated remove his chip- which looks severely karked up and the source and because of his wildly out of character behavior. Thire is holding one of Tup's hands he is nearly vibrating, with rage (for Tup) and worry for his beloved.

They can have one of the countless dead vod'ika that happen due to working on a place as Dangerous as Coruscant and swap them for Tup. It works- except that Bright, angry, caring Fives is sniffing out a conspiracy.

Fox has to chase after his beloved and while his is proud of him, he's also rather annoyed at him too, all of their hard work to unravel Palpatine's plots without the other noticing, slowing gathering of evidence to present to the nat-borns and the nearly ready time to kill him and Fives nearly ruins it all by trying to kill The Chancellor and now Fox and a squad of Corries have to hunt him down.

Seren's Studies: Odd Squad UK -- "Three is the Oddest Number" Episode Followup, Part 1

Well, ladies and gents and human beings...it's here. The finale of Odd Squad UK. Given PBS's track record with this franchise, I'm going to just deem it the series finale until some news decides to slap me in the face that the show got renewed for a Season 2/Season 5. And that's assuming it actually does.

This is a three-parter (considering "Should Odd Acquaintance Be Forgot" is chopped in two parts), so I'll be tackling this episode and hopefully get to the other two tonight. Maybe. Hopefully. I'm not exactly confident nor excited to see how it ends, but nearly anything could be better than the trainwreck that was "Odd Together Now". And never forget that I took a fucking bullet for all of you who watch Season 3 because I watched that shit early. (Funny to think that I had a big old speech for my Seren Reacts video about how the show's ending...and how it aged poorly. Didn't even get to do a final run on it!)

But enough talk! Let's have at this episode below the break.

(A post-editing note: I was informed that Leonie is, in fact, a girl, and not a boy like I thought. I'm keeping the LGBTQ+ theory because we've already gotten gay triangle villain and they could extend that to child villains too, but keep in mind that Leonie is a girl and not a boy. That's my bad.)

Ohhhh...a Niki episode. Once again, as long as it's not Omar or Tasha, I do not give a flying rat's Photoshopped ass.

That aside, this looks eerily similar to the classroom at the Academy where Orchid taught in "End of the Road". It's just more green, and there are no Mobile Unit agents, but the sentiment is there.

Hold on, hold on...this shit was all them?

Okay! Great! Cool! So riddle me this, then: why did we not get any hints about you in any of these episodes? Even a shot of any one of these three peeking around a corner -- or hell, even a funny background Easter egg or a symbol of some kind! -- would have helped tremendously.

You guys remember my complaint about them trying to squeeze a story arc into 12 episodes? This is the result of that and my complaints are legit so help me God.

Oh, hi, Ohlm. You got out of your eternal grounding and hopped on a plane to the UK? Didn't...didn't even serve any jail time for committing mass murder, huh?

(Yeah yeah, I'm aware that's not Ohlm. But you can't tell me it doesn't look like an older Jaiden at first glance.)

This is the most goddamn LGBTQ+ child villain I have ever seen, and I will leave the fandom to discuss their own theories.

Their...their logo is literally...it's just a slimmed-down version of...the...Science symbol...

Deja vu, I have in fact been in this place before, in "Oscar Strikes Back". And if neither of these three were Scientists, then what is point?

Oxandra is a name I'm fine with. It's Cassandra but Odd Squad-fied.

Offee, though? Is the name born from a mother with a severe caffeine addiction, and anyone who says it's toffee is wrong. Think about it. Sit on how demonized coffee is in this franchise. And then, find the symbolism.

SEE???? AND HIS NAME IS OLLISON. ALLISON. HE'S A BOY.

THE MOST OBVIOUSLY LGBTQ+ CHILD SINCE SEATTLE MR. O BAR ONLY HIM.

"To do that, we need to steal three shapes from their gadgets."

I see someone's taking their cue from Odd Todd in World Turned Odd.

"But we can't just go into Odd Squad HQ and steal it."

Actually yes you can, and lemme lay this out:

Get some agent suits

Maybe get some masks, or disguise yourself with a shapeshifting device

Get into HQ

Steal the shapes

????

????

Profit.

*long deep sigh*

No. Don't do this. Not after m' boi reformed. Don't do this. I'm recovering from last episode still. DON'T. DO THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII-

Pretty sure I mentioned how good foreshadowing would be in "A Tour of Odd Squad", no?

And yet, they decide to shove it into this episode????? They decide to have the "kids in the superfan tour" thing in this episode?!?!?!?!

Okay, they cared about continuity this season, but only a sparse few times. They've bent the rules of continuity so many times that they could abso-fuckin'-lutely have put them in the tour in that episode.

"But Seren, you would still whi-" FUCKING YES I WOULD STILL WHINE. I HAVE A RIGHT TO WHINE THANK YOU.

Ohhhhh...because Icy Mouseeeeeeeeey.....

If this is shaping up to be a villain episode, then I'll say right now that "Villain Networking" handled it much better.

I...why do we need a time card? If they're already at the "assigning roles to the evil plan" portion, how the fuck long do they need?

Aaaaaaaah' c'maaaaaaaaaahn. You can't tell me they weren't thinking of Macklemore here. At least once!

"We don't follow fashion...?"

Already got my idea for a new Season 2/Season 5 character. And that's setting aside the fact that Onom is canonically a seamstress. (Seamster?)

No, that's a child in a mouse mask, Ryan Lewis. There is a difference between a bipedal mouse and a bipedal human wearing a mouse mask.

"Chasey or zappy" is a real PBS Kids way of saying "shoot first, or chase first?"

Though to be honest, wounding him would up the finale's ante considerably.

50/50 chance of Orli calling them out on being literal children instead of adults.

...

No, lemme change that. 90/10. And you should know what the 10 is for.

DID A WHOLE-ASS VISCERAL COUGH AT THIS LGBTQ+ CHILD ASKING ORLI TO TAKE A FUCKING SELFIE AND NAME-DROPPING SELFIE AND BRO WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING.

If I really wanted to, I could make an MLP unicorn telekinesis joke, but I don't want to, so I won't.

NOOOOOO. N O T THEM HAVING A PORTRAIT VS. LANDSCAPE DEBATE. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NIKI CHILD WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK- *explodes*

This slow head shake is fucking sending me. This entire scene is beautiful for a cold-open-not-cold-open.

Y'ALL GOT TWO MORE SHAPES TO FIND NOW W H A T ARE Y'ALL DOING.

I appreciate the villains giving the math lesson this time around, even if they are our big bads. We don't get many villain math lessons because villains are supposed to be st00pid at math.

Oxandra. Sweet summer child. Either drop the evil laugh or work on it. It's not for you.

Look, the more this very obvious Otis reference is brought up, the more I will fucking complain about it.

Again I have to ask: what is the writers' fixation on referencing Season 2 stuff? 10 years' worth of stuff to reference and you go with Season 2?

...Oh, and speaking of:

"Is...that just a regular magnifying gla-"

"JUST LET ME HAVE THIS ONE, ORLI!! PLEEEEEASE!!"

"they wouldn't have gotten away from me and this"

bro has feet

other bro has a limp and two tiny wheels

Think realistically, Orwell. Really think. Sit on it forever if ya have to.

Y'know, seeing this season makes me realize that they really just up and went "okay, make a gadget for anything and everything in existence".

And that's in addition to the 10k they already have, mind you.

(On to Part 2!)

MY OCS, MY FANDOM! MEET THE SQUAD!

MEET THE GANG!

MY SONA, ME! Relly “Chelle” Orchids: A young feminine lad who plays the violin. Joined the Depths of Scrolls Tournament which to fight for a ‘special’ prize and Agreement of Odds which were filled with tourney fighters of any race, humans, monsters, gods, creatures of any thing. Their group was formed in the AoO era. She works by a 5-Star bar at night time after her shift of killing in the tournament finishes. The bar holds performances for Chelle to participate in. Every contestant can join in no riot nor discord, literally. It’s only in morning they fight.She’s sweet, a darling, a gentle, polite, and innocent lady to talk to and meet. The way she dresses defines her, an elegant woman of fashion. The very first man she met was a sailor.. A zombie sailor. They formed an alliance to become independent and meet knew people along the way. The sailor was with a cyborg teen. They fought with eachother throughout the tourney and had eachother’s backs no matter what. She always has this cherry blossom perfume.. And oh! Chelle is rich, she gets paid good. She has a large white mansion. Chelle has a gardening/flower/plant and plushie addiction, so expect to see those in her home. Just saying, this lady is very talented and polite. Other than the violin, she can play the lyre, ukelele, piano, guitar, and flute, but she only mainly uses her violin since it her favorite instrument. She can also sing, of course! Everytime she’s outside, she always wields her violin case and her large black parasol with her! Her little Nintendo looking robot always trails behind her, irritated as it was. It’s name was Beepzkii. An assistant who’s intelligent and gullible.

AN OLD IMAGE OF BEEPZKII AND CHELLE:

Her way of fighting goes like this: She might seem calm when attacked, then she opens her parasol infront of the enemy's eyes, blinding them. The tip of her large black parasol was VERY sharp, so it DOES cause pain to people. After that, the enemy might mistake her still being behind the parasol, but noooo! She's gone! Well, actually, she jumped really high on the air. She jumps, raising her skirt up to exchange her violin case to her beloved sniper. The weapon was strapped onto her thigh real tight, hoping it wont really fall and she'd make fun of herself out in the tourney.  Her knee-high socks secretly have some ammo an bullets in them if she loses any, so she just reloads her sniper mid air. Then after that silliness, she does a spin in the air, preparing to shoot and aiming for either the head or the chest, or just any part just hoping it'll injure them in some other way. Even if she lands, she doesnt care if her skirt was still raised up and her underwear could be seen because of the wind and the motion of falling, to her its a live or death situation. She was smart for her tactics, only planning it herself! She WOULD use her violin to fight too, just depends!

The zombified sailor, The Mariner: A charming, handsome, and flirtatious zombie sailorman.. Well, it’s quite hard to tell if he was a zombie. He was very pale white, his right arm having a scar. He and his crew got eaten by a whale in one of his expeditions and as a revenge to his opposing enemy, his father. The crew was eaten alive, yet him and his father were left, he killed him as to avenge his mother’s task and quest for the young boy after being a street urchin for so long. (He was starving, so he ate his father.) Surprisingly, after 1,220 years (he was 23 that time), the whale died and exploded in the ocean, him arriving to the island of the tourney, a tournament for humans, mythical creatures, creatures, and anything, the Agreement of Odds. He was insane and handsome for a man like him. He looks the same age to when he died, a charming young man he is. He’s talented himself, he can sing really good and can compose a song for any woman he loves. After a breakup with his Ex-gf after finding out she cheated on him and stole his unreleased music and singing it to the man that the girl was cheating on, he was ballistic. He was mad and pissed, as if he wasted a lot of time on writing love songs for her, A LOT of love songs. He can woo any woman and play with their feelings if he wanted to, yet chose not too since he knew what it felt to be played around. He can write poems and sonnets under a span of 1 minute if you asked him to, he dedicates his heart to what he writes. When he was walking the streets after the breakup, he meets this woman with long spiky raven hair and a white turtleneck with long black skirt. He was still pissed, but after walking and chatting with her, he figures they were both going to the same place, a bar by the block. He learnt that she works as a special musician there which amazed him and they talk about collaborating in singing. After some weeks, he never saw her again which led him to missing her, yet going on to do the quest he was tasked by his mother. Who knows he’ll meet her again, the sweet lady he met last time. This happened before the whale incident, which indicates he was still a human when she met this mysterious lady. He’s a professional mariner and sailor by the sea. He can only play the guitar after learning how to play it when he was still a human. Most of the women loved and had a crush on him in the town he once lived before at even if he was poor. He was making money by singing and all, and by cleaning the church at night.  After joining the tournament and getting washed over by the sea of the tourney island, he meets this cyborg girl who was cocky and hyper. To him, she was very annoying. Once they got along and agreed to make an alliance, they were walking on the streets at night not until he spots someone who looked familiar to him.. This pretty lady who was holding a violin case and a closed parasol. They walked up to her and she was quite nice, he likes it.. Again, he felt familiar, her scent, her smile, and her face, yet he couldn’t wrap a finger on who it was. He just shrugged it off and became allies with her, developing a small crush on her as time went on. His way of fighting: He uses his slick words to woo the person, man or woman, whatever. Or maybe he also uses the appeal of him just a ‘weak and mere’ human being, appearing as weak and revealing as a zombie. He fights them with a large rusty machete which was meant for him and was brought with him inside the whale, and an oldschool revolver he uses. He’s skilled and can come up with a fighting strategy on spot.

Pvt. General Ivan “Eva” His statue was dedicated for a real general who used to rule the island where the tournament was always held at. He took part in everything and won every fight and war he went through with a straight and stoic face. It was slightly poorly made, the statue being officially finished made in 1932. 7 months and 3 days was all it took. Gathering of resources was hard to do, because, again, the island was poor before. Well, not until someone had to revise and recreate the islet to become better and successful and lose the title of poverty in their name. He died in the age of 31 as a human in war and in sacrifice. The living statue roams the streets and takes care of the city by night time. His soul was trapped in that special statue dedicated to him. Yes, he can move at daylight, but just stays at the stage he was supposed to be at. Despite his pale skin and military attire, he's tall and his hair color was just like that when he was born, a pale blonde color. He ruled the place with bravery and pure leadership. A historic figure the island couldn't ever forget no matter what. He joined the tourney to avenge some old soldiers he was bestfriends with, that explains his cold personality. Yes, he’s still a bachelor, no wife, no girlfriends, nothing. Just his job in patrolling and defending the island was his main thing in life. He used to be carefree and sweet, yet it all changed after this one specific war, a planned massacre from a different country. He was traumatized, so he bottled everything up to himself as time went by. He was a true gentleman himself, respecting women. He used to do those sweet ball dancing with a woman he used to love before, yet hearing the news she died had made him very lonely. As he was patrolling, he sees a group of 3. He was suspicious of them so he told the three to halt. They were pleading him to join their alliance, he just scoffs and rolls his eyes. He didnt want to join, yet their group had potential in succeeding together in battle, so he just joined. He felt irritated for the first day, but as the weeks pass by, he softened up to them and accepted them just like how they accepted him as he was welcomed as the 4th group member. He was very close to Chelle and Mariner, seeing them as new bestfriends in his life which he was happy about. His way of fighting: Well, hes the first one to approach the person who he’s going to fight. His stature and aura would make ANYONE feel uneasy. Even if he was a statue, he was quick and flexible, almost as if he was human. He can either fight with his gun or hand to hand. His fists are incredibly hard and heavy, saying that if he hits you in the head, your head will immediately bleed because of it.. Interesting..

Cloudoob “Hex” Viper: An insane hyperactive teen who’s website lover. She’s the type to love vibrant colors and the 2000′s style. She AGAIN used to be human. She was tortured and scientists took lab tests on here that were painful. They removed her ears and replaced it with some designed ones that looked like headphones, I mean, the replaced one was better, it can hear anything, even a whisper. She can adjust the volume in her head. She was also added with a USB tail, containing EVERY memory she had, pictured and videos. You can access these memories if she allows you to plug it in a laptop, yet you have to gain her trust. In her human times, age of 5,, she used to have straight black hair and she used to be calm and collected, unlike her short sharp hot pink hair and her snarky smug attitude now, Online, she’s known as a fangirl. Her green goggles are very hi-tech and can detect anything. She came with a LARGE hammer which was named HammerBot, but to her, she calls it Bottie. Bottie is the opposite of Cloud. Bottie’s a he, he was programmed to have a male AI voice which glitches. The first person she met was the Mariner and agreed to have an alliance with him after begging for God knows how much. Her whining was very annoying for Mariner, so he just gave in. IMAGE OF BOTTIE:

He can have hissy fits sometimes if Cloud does something insane or stupid. He’s mature and is the upper hand in their friendship. He is a digital hammer, the scientists who took tests on her were the ones who made it specially for her. The stickers and the designs were soon then added by Cloudoob since it fits her. Surprisingly, Bottie allowed her to do it after losing a bet they made.He can hover around and float. Her way of fighting: It comes in different ways and different tactics. Since Bottie can float, he can be of ambush to the enemy while Cloud distracts them with her annoying personality which mostly works. When she wields Bottie, she becomes stronger. They’re both digital, Cloudoob being a cyborg. The waves of energy and internet comes in between them and Cloud can be much more faster and crazier. The hit of Bottie is very painful and heavy, so becareful in pissing him off or making Cloudoob angry!

The Streetsweeper: Ah yes. Little German boy. This boy is 11 and is a HUGE ALCOHOLIC. He prefers beer a lot. His accent is very heavy. He was in poverty ever since he was 3. He knows how to defend himself, infact, hes very independent and responsible. He earns little money everyday after serving his whole soul everyday just to sweep the streets and MAN. IT’S VERY CLEAN, almost like he was born to sweep the streets. Oh yeah, since he’s a heavy drinker, he rarely gets drunk because he’s VERYYYY VERYYYYY used to it. Yep. He sometimes smokes, but he prefers drinking to keep himself stable. Sometimes, he also cleans people’s windows and resell milk from his supplier. He really is trying his best to gain money. The boy needs SOAP IN HIS MOUTH!! He cusses most of the time, mostly in his language. He knows a little of English, but he mixes English with German words and phrases. He can also sew, after learning how to do so when he was 7. He is skilled and hardworking if you do ask me. He really loves his country with full heart and would kick ass in the tourney for it. He doesn’t trust anyone after his parents died, he really doesnt. Not until he meets this one girl who was 12. She always encounters the German boy as she passes through the streets to wander to the nearest famous library. Every time he sees her wave and smile, he would snicker and mumble something bad about her under his breath then taking a sip from his beer and then going back to sweeping. The Streetsweeper then gained the courage and shouted at her for always waving and being nice to him for no reason. She just replies with a sentence that says that she just did it because it was her then she walked away. He was shocked and pretty much felt bad and decided to apologize to the girl by his age with glasses. The next day came and he gifted her 2 fresh roses he saw as he was working. He was very shy and rough when he said his sorry, it was because he wasnt used to it EVER. She forgave him and then they’d hang out. The boy was gaining a crush on her as months came. She introduced him to their group filled with contestants. He didnt trust them and still was being mad angry and pissed no matter what, but he warmed up to them soon. His way of fighting: He uses his LARGE ASS BROOM to fight. His hits are hard to dodge, he was training for this moment. He can take a ton of hits at the enemy and knocking them fainted, yet not killing him. The poor boy would just flee once they’re fainted, never to be seen ever again by the contestant who dared to fight the little German alcoholic.

Chellby Orchids: The younger sister of Chelle, 12 years old. She is observant and smart. She likes reading books, especially novels. She usually gets permission from Chelle if she could go to the local library and she was allowed. The necklace which had a heart on it was given by her mother, (WHOS STILL ALIVE), to remember as she was keeping watch of her older sister if she was doing all right. She always sends letters to her mom every month and tell what’s happening to the both of them. She’s a spectator, not a competitor. As she was walking, she always sees this streetsweeper with a bottle of beer on his hands all the time. She always gives him a small wave and smile, then continuing on to walking to the library. This encounter happens almost everyday, and the German decided to approach her and yell, her responding to him with a specific sentence to which made him shock. The next day came and she saw him again. Chellby asked what’s wrong and he immediately shoved 2 roses in her face and said sorry in German. He was flustered, yet still mad. She accepted it and always met up with the poor boy. She introduced him to the crew and she made him join. The boy she met now felt welcomed, and deep inside her, she was developing feelings for him yet chose not to say it to anyone, not even her sister.

Mr. Calamity: The wonky and silly magician! Powerful, a wizard he was. He has this company named ‘CALAMITY ENTERTAINMENT’. Yes, he was also a comedian. Well, he’s not really insane despite how he looks. He’s a goofy guy whose limbs stretch to the fullest extent and his head can fall off. Yes, you heard me right. He works a part time job in his little show company of his and killing. Hes the 50/50 of dumb and smart. He’s pretty innocent, and can sometimes be teasing. His teasing can be seen as charming to people, yet he just doesnt know what he was actually saying, like, he doesnt get it. He carries a large ass magician wand to perform tricks which he memorized from this one book which was as thick as a whole story novel and a dictionary. It’s really impressive to how he memorized some spells which were both strong and dangerous. He is a charming tall and lanky man of his age, a young man indeed. When he was walking and humming to himself, a charming sweet lady saw him and recognized him, same for the magician. They both recognized eachother since they were both famous as hell. They decided to be friends and the lady asked him if he wanted to join their squad, and he said HELL YEAHH!! Why not?  His way of fighting: He first makes his opponent see him as some spectator or staff, trying to confuse them even if the enemy knows he was lying. He tries to start a talking argument, yet he DOES have something in his sleeve, meaning he knows what he was doing. And with his hands behind his back, he performs a magic trick of whatever to the person, duelling them mid-talk.

I HOPE U GUYS LIKE MY OCS!! U GUYS CAN ASK THEM QUESTIONS OR DRAW THEM IF YOU WANT, THEY’RE FROM MY OWN OCT!!!

Underrated duo: Otis and Orchid

I just re-watched the episode where Otis tries to film a commercial for Odd Squad, and Orchid is the audio technician. I can't stop thinking about the absolute chaos of the dynamic, and how surprisingly well they work together??? Top notch.

NO YEAH YOU'RE SO RIGHT THE TWO OF THEM ARE GREAT

Otis and Orchid are both so deadpan but in two different ways and it honestly goes so well together they're like. Horrible tormentor siblings they're amazing you're so real for this???

cw: mild swearing

It was nearing midday at Odd Squad. Everyone was in their designated workspace, with a select few either at the coffee station or talking and wandering around.

Otis was seated at his workspace, turning his pc on and waiting for it to boot. He not too long ago clocked in, because he overslept and ran late. But no surprise—that was just classic Otis.

Whilst waiting for his work computer to wake up, he shuffled his way over to the self-service area and poured himself a cup of coffee. Straight black, one packet of sugar, and a pinch of salt, just the way he liked it. From the self service station, Otis circled his way back to his desk and sat at his computer. He sighed when he sat down, putting his hot drink to to the side. His PC had just finished starting up and it was now showing the home screen, along with random shortcuts scattered all over the place. Otis double-clicked on an internet browser to navigate to his work email; he was about to find out what fresh new emails await him in his inbox.

“6 unread emails.”

One of them was a reply email from Ms. O. another one was a forwarded message from Olympia; she had needed help with completing the documents for a recently closed case and she wanted to get Otis’ final input. The rest were just spam emails from Orchid; she had sent him random links, and as a result, Otis shook his head and moved Orchid to spam.

He took a gander at the first email from his boss and replied with a swift yet semi-respectful answer. Subsequently, he studied the one that was forwarded by his red-headed partner. Speak of the devil, Olympia’s neck stretched out from behind her computer and into Otis’ view. “Did ya get my email?” She inquired, her squeaky voice making Otis jump.

“Y-yeah, I’m looking at it now.” Otis replied before taking a sip of his coffee.

“Y’know, reading this made me a bit confused, and I have no idea if we should get Oprah’s input on this.” Olympia explained, pushing her glasses up on her nose. She started biting her nails out of anxiousness as she waited for Otis to respond.

“Hm…” Her partner hummed to himself in focus, squinting his eyes. He read through the email carefully. He actually ended up reading it 3 times, due to his low attention span on the first 2 tries. His chin sat on the palm of his pale hand, and the tips of his fingers rested on his upper lip. Because his fingers were already there, Otis involuntarily scratched his mustache, periodically grunting.

“Yeah I think I’ll send this to her,”

No response came from Olympia; she only nodded and resumed typing on her keyboard. now that that was done and over with, Otis pulled a piece of paper from his desk drawer and began to scribble some side notes on it.

Otis was in the middle of a sentence when his phone buzzed in his back pocket. He pulled it out to see who was calling. “Unknown number…” Otis muttered to himself. He shook it off as a spam caller and hung up. Not long after, his phone rang again, and he followed a similar procedure: look at phone, hang up, put phone away. He was way too busy to answer any calls, at least right now.

His phone rang annoyingly again and it was the same unknown number. “I’ll be right back in a second,” Otis stood up, tossed his pencil on the desk in irritation, and departed for the men’s bathroom in one of the smaller hallways. Olympia watched as Otis walked off and did nothing except follow her partner with her eyes until he was no longer visible from her eyesight. Olympia looked towards her computer screen with a confused look.

Otis was going to give whoever kept calling him a piece of his mind, but this time he was gonna give them a piece and then some because they were calling him at work. Once he was inside and made sure no one else was occupying the bathroom, he locked himself in a stall and answered the call. “What? Who is this?!”

“It’s me! Calm down, jeez.” The voice on the other side of the line said, in a partial irritable tone. Similar to the one he heard in the parking lot a little while ago. Too similar.

Otis’s bluish-greyish eyes widened in realization, then his eyebrows furrowed. He didn’t expect to hear from him again, he didn’t want to.

It was Todd, the guy who stopped him approximately a week ago before he got in his car.

“I thought I told you to piss off?” Otis growled softly into his phone.

“Yeahhhh… but it didn’t work out, as I’m literally sitting here talking to you right now.” Todd chuckled, purposefully dragging the h in ‘yeah’.

While Otis was situated in the men’s bathroom, leaning on one of the stall walls, Todd, on the other end, was sitting in his messy office, his shoes on top of his desk. Papers were stacked everywhere, along with his many, many miscellaneous items and belongings. It honestly looked like a tornado had touched down in there. But, seemingly, that was the least of his problems. He had a cigarette in his hand, blowing the smoke out after taking an inhale.

“How the hell did you get my number?!” Otis asked.

“Hey man I know you’re at work right now, could you do me a favor?” Todd responded, ignoring the question with another question.

“No. Stop calling me, I ain’t interested. Go annoy somebody else.” Otis said in an assertive tone, and he hung up. Leaning his back on the side of the stall, he sighed. ‘Jeez, that man gives me a double-migraine.’

His phone rang again, buzzing in his hand. Otis decided to take matters into his own hands, and blocked the number that Todd was using to call him.

He exited the stall and headed toward the bathroom door to leave, however, just as he was about to touch the door handle, his phone vibrated again. It was an unknown number, but this time, it was a different one. Todd. He must be calling from a different number now. Otis raised the white flag as he mentally came to the sort-of conclusion there was nothing he could do to keep Todd from calling him. At least nothing right now. At this rate, who knows how long he could keep this up? Was he really that bored? Did he actually need help? Otis couldn’t figure it out by just standing there and staring at his illuminated screen like an idiot.

So, he gave in and answered.

“you’re so desperate that you use a different number to call me even when I’ve already told you not to, and even after I’ve blocked your first number. damn it man. what do you want?!”

“Hey! You’re back! Finally. I want you to do me a favor. I’m looking for something. It’s only something small, and I really need it.”

Otis sighed and pinched the top of his nose, between his eyes in defeat. “What could possibly be worth wasting my time?”

“It’s a case file from when I was an agent. It was put together some time before I became a….villain.” Todd explained. “It’s in a file cabinet in the Odd Squad archives. And hey-if you bring it to me I’ll give you…$300. Sound good?”

“Why do you need something like that? Last time I checked you were finished with being a villain, and were more interested in growing fruits.”

“Vegetables, man. Not fruits. Well, actually, count the tomato out because that’s a fruit. Anyhow, how’s about I tell you the reason after you fetch me the file?”

“Ugh, can’t you bring your lazy butt down here and get it yourself??”

“Nah. If someone catches me sneaking into the Odd Squad archives; me, the one and only Todd that has preyed on Odd Squad for years, it won’t look pretty.”

Otis heavily sighed.

15 seconds went by before Todd broke the silence. “So…Odd Squad archives, should be in section 6 column C. Thanks kid! I’ll be waiting on ya.” Todd said very, very fast, then abruptly hung up, not giving Otis a chance to respond.

“Todd…TODD?!”

Otis groaned to himself out of annoyance. He wanted Todd to stay away, and clearly he wasn’t gonna be doing that anytime soon.

The blonde haired man flushed the toilet, washed his hands, and left the men’s room to go back to his desk. Olympia was still there, her eyes glued to her computer screen. Otis sat down back at his chair and went back to work. He sighed and sulked down in his chair, his eyes looking up towards the flickering lights above. Otis sat like this for a while, the lights trapping him in a trance of his own, before snapping out of it.

As he was in the middle of writing a case report, he got a text from the same number that Todd called him from.

‘Hey’

Otis shook his head.

‘Come on, man it’s not that much, i just need you to swipe a file for me real quick’

‘please’

‘please’

‘please’

‘please’

‘please’

‘please’

Otis didn’t want to respond to Todd’s spamming text messages, but his hands picked up the phone and started typing before he thought about anything.

‘If I do this will you stop annoying me?’

Read 12:23 PM

It was a little while before Todd ended up responding.

‘ya sure whatever. anyways, you’re the best! i’ll be waiting for you here i hope you still have my business card 😁 if not, well, you got my number now’

Otis needed to drum up a plan. He was gonna get the file, give it to todd, then come back. And he [Otis] won’t have to worry about him ever again. Or, he [Todd] could toss his promise out the window and start begging him [Otis] for free favors. Two possible outcomes, and one was more frustrating than the other.

Otis buried his face in his hands before pulling them back off. When he did that, though, his face turned red. And his partner across from him could see Otis’s red-hot-chili-peppered face.

“You okay?” Olympia asked her partner.

“I’m gonna go look for my…phone! I think I must’ve forgot it when i left the bathroom or dropped it in the toilet…or something...”

“Huh? Oh…okay. Well, hurry back. And if you do end up trying to fish it out, please don’t try and do it yourself. I’m sure you don’t want a repeat of last time.”

“Yeahcoolokaythanks” Her partner said rapidly before slipping away back into the hallway.

•·················•·················•

Otis— acting as inconspicuous as he could—approached the elevator in the north hallway and quickly pressed the down button. Repeatedly. His goal was to make sure no one was gonna hop on the elevator while he was there. And he was almost gonna have his way, that was, until Ocean walked up. He glanced at the elevator buttons. It was lit up, as it had already been pushed.

“Nice. I’m going down too.” Ocean commented in a calm voice. His voice made Otis stop pressing the button and nearly jump out of his skin. He turned to his creature-caring surfer friend, who had just caught him off guard.

“You good, man? I didn’t mean to scare ya like that. I’m sorry.” Ocean apologized, reassuring Otis. You could hear the surfer hawaiian accent in his voice. Otis just nodded in response.

The elevator beeped and both men filed inside, the doors closing behind them after they went in. As the elevator started down, there was a bit of an awkward silence between the two. Ocean had his hands in his pockets, while Otis’s left hand was in his back pocket, and his right was shaking nervously. He looked down at the wooden floor below, refusing to make eye contact with his temporary elevator buddy.

Ocean took note of Otis’s nervous hand shaking. He looked at him. “you ok, man? your hand is shaking like the san andreas fault.”

Otis didn’t respond.

“there anything on your mind?”

No response. just a shake of his head.

“just wanna let you know, i’m always here if you i wanna talk or something. i’m a good listener,” ocean said to his friend, who looked back up at him.

“thanks.” otis finally responded.

The elevator stopped at b3, Ocean’s destination. “Welp, that’s me.” Ocean said, both to himself and Otis.

“By the way, Otis—“ Ocean said on his way out of the elevator.

Otis looked up in response.

“Your fly is down.”

Otis’s face turned cherry red as soon as Ocean made that comment. After the elevator door closed, Otis scrambled to correct himself.

‘How humiliating…’

•·················•·················•

B5. That’s the floor Otis was heading to, and that’s the one he stepped off on. As soon as he walked out of the elevator, though his jaw dropped in shock.

It had been a long, long, long time since Otis was last in the archives. There were aisles upon aisles of file cabinets. Otis groaned, he wanted to get in and get out of there as soon as possible, but looking at the size of the archives room, it looked like that was near impossible to accomplish.

*sigh* “Here we go…”

‘Section C…Column 6…section C, column 6…section c, column-‘

An old hanging wood sign that read “Section C” stood in front of Otis. He started down the aisle, mentally counting until he got to 6.

The blonde haired boy’s head faced up, high above his height to the tallest file cabinet, sighing in annoyance and rolling his eyes. ‘It couldn’t get any more difficult, huh.’

Otis left and came back momentarily with a step ladder. He was going to use the ladder to climb up and then search through the files on way down. Otis set the ladder down, and scaled to the top. He pulled open the highest cabinet, using his fingers to search through the files.

‘Not that one.’

He opened the one below it and searched that one.

‘Not that one either.’

He did the same thing to the drawer under the previous one…

‘Nope.’

and again…

‘Nuh-uh.’

Otis arrived to the third-to-last file cabinet. He pushed the ladder out of the way before opening it, due to the possibility of the ladder getting in the way of the drawer.

He hand-searched though the files.

‘A…B…C…D………..Q…R…S……’

‘T…T…T…’

‘T! There you are.’

Otis yanked the file out of the cabinet and quietly shut it. His mission was almost accomplished—he just needed to get outta there. He was on his way to the elevator, when he simultaneously caught a short glimpse of another agent that just came out of the elevator and into the archives. It looked like someone who worked in the defensive division.

“Shit.” Otis whispered to himself. He couldn’t afford to get caught, as this could possibly land him in some level of trouble. How was he supposed to explain why he was swiping a piece of Odd Squad property for an ex-villain?

Exactly.

‘Where to hide, where to hide?’

As his bluish-grayish eyes darted around the space around him, he finally locked his view on the dark photocopy room on the opposite side. Otis escaped into the side room, climbed to the top shelf and hid behind some boxes of printer paper. He hoped that whoever just came in would hurry up and get out so that his paranoia would go away and he could get out himself.

Otis sat in the closet for about 15 minutes. He stayed quiet and as still as he could, listening to any footsteps or movement. There was nothing. Nothing except the sound of the old rusty air conditioner, and his heavy breathing. At this point he knew for sure the coast was clear, and climbed back down from his hiding spot and out the small side room. He stopped in his tracks outside the door, though, and looked behind him at the room he just temporarily camped in, getting an idea.

•·················•·················•

Otis hurried back to his workspace, the file hidden in the fabric of his jacket. His partner Olympia was absent from her chair. He was about to wonder where in the world his partner could be, but Otis lifted his watch up to his face.

‘It’s lunch time. I think I can hurry up and make this quick.’

•·················•·················•

*beep beep*

Otis unlocked his car with his keys and opened his passenger side car door.

‘There it is.’

He opened his glove box and snatched the business card that was given to him by Todd.

He studied the address on the card and put it in his phone. It didn’t seem too far from here, so Otis decided to go there on foot. But it was raining, and Otis didn’t have an umbrella, so he had no choice but to make it quick.

•·················•·················•

The door to the compact building creaked open. It was pouring outside, and Otis was just about soaked. “that’s real nice.” otis muttered to himself in a sarcastic ticked-off tone. he squeezed out some of the rainwater from his clothes using his hands. his clothes were wet. his hair? not so much. he only ran his hand through his hair to try and make it look like that it wasn’t affected by the rain, but his attempt was insufficient.

“Forget it.”

Otis sighed, taking in the air in the room around him. The room didn’t have a lot in it as far as furniture went. There was a couch and a table, along with a reception desk that had magazines and newspapers on it. He curiously picked up the newspaper on top; the date read February 14, 2019. Interesting. Grabbing another, the date read July 6, 2017. The newspaper under that one read April 1, 2015. Today was January 18, 2024.

“Why is he keeping outdated newspapers?! A waste of space and a fire hazard if you ask me,” He scoffed, tossing the years-old newspapers back on the table. He went straight into a hallway, which led into a middle room with a single glass side table with a bowl of fruit.

Somebody must be aware of Otis’s presence, because a low, seemingly unprofessional voice called out over an intercom, “To the left.” Otis looked up at the ceiling and there was the intercom along with a security camera. It looked like it was from a gas station.

Otis sighed and made a left, entering a hallway.

“My left, moron!”

Otis, after turning around, scoffed and whispered expletives to himself.

He walked through another hallway approached a door with a sign, and on said sign read “Schwartz”. The sign looked like it was made in a hurry, because it looked like it was cut from a cereal box. Not to mention it was written in dark green washable marker like a 3rd grader’s english project. He jiggled with the doorknob for a little while (the doorknob seemed…broken?) before suddenly jerking it left, and it opened.

“Well, well, well, look what we have here. I knew you would say yes!” Todd said, looking up at Otis, smiling. This was Todd’s main office, which he also used personally. His golden tooth could be seen in his mouth when he talked, which sat at the bottom row, at the back. He was currently smoking something. It didn’t look like a cigarette from Otis’s view, maybe it was something else.

“Also sorry about the door. As you can see, this pile of crap was pretty cheap to rent, one of the reasons being the faulty doors just like that one. I would’ve rented a place that looked half decent, but unfortunately not everyone is a billionaire like Bruce Wayne,” He pointed to the door that Otis not too long ago walked through.

“There’s your stupid file. And I only did this because you kept calling me until I was close to going nuts,” Otis said, tossing the file on Todd’s desk.

“Also, just so you know, that ain’t the actual file. I photocopied it so no one would notice it was missing if someone were to look for it while I was gone. Also, if you want a favor from someone, try not to call them a moron, ‘kay?” He explained, putting his hands in his pockets. “And I’d like to remind you: this was a one time thing. I don’t have time nor the energy to deal with you right now. Even if I did, I’d still would rather stare at the sun through a military grade telescope than to be affiliated with you,” Otis cleared his throat and stood up.

Todd hummed and nodded, picking up the file. He opened it, eyeing Otis, acknowledging his efforts.

“I would’ve appreciated the original file nonetheless, but—eh—I won’t complain. Thinking ahead, I like it. Smart boy. Very smart indeed.” Todd ignored that last part of Otis’s response on purpose.

“Alright, it’s all here. I’ll get your payment.” Todd said, putting the file down and looking around and in his desk.

“Damn it, I must’ve left it in one of the other rooms. this won’t take long.” Todd announced. He smushed whatever he was smoking in the ash tray on his windowsill and took his shoes off his desk. Todd went to go look for Otis form of payment—whatever it was— while he left his office with the latter unattended inside.

He waited patiently for Todd to come back, but to be honest, it was taking a while; Todd was taking his precious sweet time, even though he said it wouldn’t take long. Otis decided to use this time to take advantage and snoop around the room. He still didn’t trust Todd, so he went around looking for anything that could tell him if Todd was to be trusted or not.

Piles upon piles of paper and documents filled at least a quarter of this space. Now, one thing about Otis, he knew not to touch or go through people’s belongings without asking. But this time, curiosity got the best of him; he poked through some of the documents that were scattered across the room. He had found a pile of receipts sitting on the air conditioner behind his desk. There were a couple of unfinished letters, an eviction notice, some bills, even just some random drawings. Something caught his eye, though. There were about 7 letters informing Todd about about some type of outstanding balance. According to the context of the letters: Todd was apparently in some serious debt to someone or some business in the city, and they had sent letters many times, urging Todd to pay them off.

The first letter was sent in July. Last July.

‘The dates on these go all the way back to July of last year,’ thought Otis. He took a mental note of the address on each of these letters.

‘The address on all of these are the same…’73 Garfield Avenue…’’

Otis pulled out his phone and did a quick maps search of the address on the letter. Once entered, the map circled in on a business around 6 miles away.

“Wait…a casino owns this address?! is Todd…..into…gambling…?” He asked himself.

Otis was too deep in his own thoughts, so deep that he didn’t even notice Todd walking up to him.

“Yeah…why?”

And that concludes part one ! if you enjoyed it, give it a like and/or repost!

@magical-dying-human replying in a reblog but okie!!!! :3

Olive's is an olive flycatcher because of her name of course, but my fun fact is that she was the one who started the whole thing because i remembered that they share a name and wanted to do something with it and now here we are!

Otto's bird is a cockatiel because they're very silly and friendly little guys and it felt fitting. he is also one of three parrots with the other two being Todd and Noisemaker which i think is silly

Oscar is a woodpecker finch because they're a species of bird that is known to make tools out of sticks! which i thought was cool because gadgets and stuff

Ms. O is a kookaburra because they can be VERY loud when they want to be

Olympia is an anna's hummingbird because hummingbird felt very fitting for her since they're colorful and energetic and shiny and stuff, she's specifically an anna's hummingbird because of her actress's name being Anna and also because they have a bright pink face and throat marking (which is called a gorget btw) and pink is kind of an Olympia color to me

Otis is a wood duck because. ducks. but the reason why wood duck in particular is because aren't really immediately recognizable as a traditional duck especially just by the wings. wood ducks are very colorful btw they're cool, but also this creates a contrast between him and the ducks he used to live with since they're white domestic ducks. also bonus fun fact his blue and brown feathers match with Ms. O and he has some iridescent green feathers that match with Olympia :)

Oona is a crow because they're also very silly animals actually, but on top of that they're also quite smart and also build and use tools!

Ocean is a puffin because they're a seabird and like. ocean. you get the joke here. also i just like them

Orchid is a secretary bird because they remind me of raptor dinosaurs!

Octavia is an american robin because they're cheerful little guys and it felt fitting for her

Oz is a potoo because they're crazy good at camouflage actually it's pretty cool

ok so minor disclaimer actually i haven't watched OSMU. i do think Orla is cool though and her being a ptarmigan was a discord suggestion actually! fun fact though they change color with the seasons from specked brown in the summer to solid white in the winter and a mixture of the two during spring and fall!

i don't think i need to explain Dr. O tbh, she and Olympia are in the hummingbird club together though. Oksana is also pretty self-explanatory

Obfusco is a flamingo because if i remember correctly he has a line that mentions them at some point? and also they're just kind of weird and funky birds honestly

Ohlm is a pigeon because everyone thinks they're stupid but studies have shown they're actually quite smart! fun fact they're better at multitasking than humans are. also because of Alan the singing pigeon from that one episode

Todd's bird assignment is one of my favorites actually because i think it fits him perfectly but kea parrots are colorful, very smart but also mischievous, and known to cause problems and chaos (such as stealing and destroying things etc) just for fun, and they're also very difficult to keep in captivity because if they don't have enough enrichment they'll get bored and start causing problems on purpose to entertain themselves which in the context of odd squad definitely sounds familiar

Jamie Jam is a strawberry finch because i thought it would be funny. strawberry jam if you will

Noisemaker is a cockatoo because they're very noisy birds that can mimic sounds! i think he can imitate musical instrument noises probably

and lastly Mister Lightning is a lightning bird because of the name and also because the real life ones look really goofy

might as well post this separately too but here's my whole list of bird assignments for the wings au! some of the reasons are more literal than others but they all have them, might elaborate on some of them later in a reblog or something because i really like talking about them :)

also i am taking suggestions for any characters who aren't on this list because i forget about a lot of them and also i really like picking out cool birds for them
