CHKCGJSRUARAUTSJTJS I loved the wk x octonauts crossover you did! Could ee get what the villains think of the octpnauts?/nf

Oh, hi Anon! Thanks for the ask!

(I am glad you guys like these, I yap a lot)

I’d love to explain what I believe the dynamics between the Wild Kratts’ villains and Octonauts would be!

And like I did last time with the Kratts’ crew, here’s what animals I believe the villains would be:

Main Villains:

Zach Varmitech: Hyrax (solely because they are considered a symbol of Cowardice… and imagining him as a fat, furry little creature is kinda funny)

Donita Donata: A swan (swans are considered classy, and for some reason, I feel she’d be wearing a feather boa)

Gaston Gourmand: Okay… Snapping Turtle (big, grouchy, and always snappy… also, they eat about anything they can fit in their mouth)

Paisley Paver (before her redemption): Beaver (building, and… to be fair, beavers can build an environment but they have to wreck it a little first)

Villain Lackeys:

Dabio: Peacock (big, bright-colored, but not all that smart, and loud. He tries his best)

Rex: Wolf (let’s be honest, he acts like a big puppy. So, a wolf with a pack bond would make a lot of sense)

—

Alright!

Let’s start with them in the Octonauts’ universe first… solely because I already listed the animals they would be.

How’d they get there?

We all know Zach is nosey, snobby… and rich. So, he was likely snooping around the Tortuga the second his spyware detected no one was inside. He gets inside, walks into the HQ- and there, in the middle of the room- a trampoline-? Well, partially just that- but also an open portal.

Drats! Those Wild Rats must be traveling through time!

And what benefit can Zach get from time travel? He can create his own park of extinct animals- Jurassic Park type beat. He’s positive they must be exploring ancient periods- and ancient periods means extinct animals! If he can get his Zach Bots through to capture some of these animals… then he can get rich(er than he already is)!

Now… what time period could they possibly be exploring? Not that he knows any periods of time. Ice Age? The Cambrian Explosion itself? The Triassic, Jurassic, or Cretaceous periods? So many options (from what he just looked up)!

Maybe they got caught up in the late Cretaceous and went extinct!

Could a human even survive the Earth at the time?

Okay, that concludes it, Zach will be bringing extra supplies, including oxygen!

But… why go alone with such risk?

So…. Zach calls an “emergency” meeting with the other villains (who are less than thrilled to see him).

Paisley is resentful. Why would she care? There is no benefit to her going back in time! The only benefit she’d get from this is paving an island so Zach can build the damn park or whatever.

Donita, on the other hand, is intrigued. Now, this was something she could get behind! A coat from a wooly mammoth? A pair of T-Rex leather boots. My, my! The options for such a period of time is insane! She could start a new fashion line- Quetzalcoatlus Fashion, real clothes from real dinosaurs, locally sourced from Ancient History!

And no false Advertisement…

Gourmand is all in. Tyrannosaurus-Steaks, Tricera-nuggets, Ankylo-stew! And that’s just the big three of the Cretaceous! Or perhaps it’ll be mammoth! Saber-tooth! All sorts of tasty snacks for a man like Gourmand- and he can sure as hell whip up a 5-Star chain of restaurants with such a thing! Ice Age Resort and Cafe! Triassic Foodlines. Best seller would be Coelophysis Ribs! Mm-mm!

So… Zach has got approval of 2 out of 3 of the villains.

Paisley eventually caves because Rex won’t quit pestering her.

So, the villains all meet up in the unguarded Tortuga- Gourmand wouldn’t pay a bit of attention, he’s snooping- and they gather around the portal. Zach has at least 10 of his Zach Bots with him- Donita has a few of her mannequins, and Paisley brought one of her machines for travel.

… The disappointment they’re getting ready to face.

Zach readies himself with an oxygen tank on hand- to which Gourmand calls him a sissy for it- and jumps through. He’s followed by Donita and Dabio- Gourmand- and last, Paisley… because Rex had to lift her through the portal.

Around the time they realize what happened, they’re face-down in the sand. Zach freaks out the moment he realizes he has paws instead of hands. Donita scoffs- which comes out as a honk- and she glances down, realizing she has wings and feathers. She’s not too mad about it. At least she’s a classy bird.

“Is this what those Kratts feel when they activate their power suits?” -Donita

“No! We’re fully animals and not just in a suit!” -Zach

Gourmand just raises up, unamused. Doesn’t look like he’s going to be making that 5-Star restaurant chain after all… but… he could always cook and eat talking animals.

Paisley is annoyed. A beaver? How inefficient. What is she supposed to do as a Beaver!?

And they are relieved to still be bipedal, no doubt (unless they were birds, who were already bipedal).

Though, it is a bit awkward. Their balance is completely off- Gourmand is weighed down by a heavy shell- and canine legs aren’t quite easy to balance on with just two legs. Rex is stumbling and falling- and highly considering just going on all-fours.

Let’s say they also landed on the same tropical island as the Kratts. They are surrounded by all sorts of creatures-! Crabs… mainly, but still! Plenty! And Gourmand is starting to think that crab legs would be… quite good. Delectable, even.

So, off he goes, gathering crabs from the beach- who readily complain as they are picked up.

Donita walks off from the group with Dabio, her mannequins following behind her to see if there’s anything fashionable on the island.

Zach is more than annoyed, debating just going back through the portal and calling it a day. Talking animals- what can he do with those!? Make them into a line of pets-… he… could make them into a line of pets! And off he goes, having his Zach bots gather as many as possible. Doesn’t matter the species, just grab them.

Paisley would end up just leaving with Rex… once Rex figured out how to get up and back through the portal.

So… how do they meet the Octonauts?

With Gourmand being a greedy bastard and grabbing a bunch of crabs, I feel a few of them would wander down beach in a frenzy, catching the Octonauts crew by surprise; they had just helped them, now this?

Barnacles would be the first to approach the situation, and glancing down beach… Why is there a snapping turtle?

So, of course, he turns to the Kratts and asks if that’s a friend.

No. Definitely not.

Barnacles is somewhat aggravated by this- a creature competent enough to understand why their actions are wrong still doing so anyway? If the ecosystem called for it, sure- he couldn’t stop it. But this was just ridiculous.

So, first impression with Gourmand isn’t the best.

Kwazzi- being himself- immediately jumps out and approaches Gourmand with a: “Drop the crabs, ye beastie!”

Gourmand… would probably snort, roll his eyes, and go about catching crabs.

Which ruins Kwazzi’s moment of grandeur.

Chris and Martin decide to handle Gourmand because… it’s Gourmand. He’s arguably the villain who’s the biggest pain in the ass solely because he doesn’t know when to give up.

But, given Barnacles, he walks over and manhandles Gourmand, pinning him to the ground. That would rile Gourmand right up; he’d be writhing, yelling, demanding to be let go- all while Chris and Martin are laughing at him.

Now, Gourmand is pissed at both the Kratt bros AND this stupid Polar Bear. Would probably mock that he’s eaten things better than Barnacles, the whole 9 yards of insult.

And I feel that’s where Zach would come back in- running back onto the beach, being swooped down on by a tropical bird. Kwazzi starts laughing and Barnacles growls.

“No offense, but next time you visit, can you ensure that the troublesome people can’t follow you through? Dealing with environmental issues alone is hard enough-“ -Barnacles

Chris and Martin would give that awkward smile they do when they get in trouble while profusely apologizing.

And now- how would they meet Donita? I feel like she somehow accidentally got ahold of Peso. And while she’s figuring out what Peso was doing there, he’s frantically calling Barnacles, freaking out.

And Barnacles being the way he is with his team in there as soon as he physically can be.

So now they have three inconveniences. Which, while being harsh, is the only way to describe them. Dabio would be four but… they don’t know he’s there yet.

Now, they had to get them *out* and make sure they don’t take any of the animals with them. Dabio and Donita, Donita who is specifically annoyed by her mannequins being destroyed, willingly go through the portal. She may be stubborn, but she’s not Zach stubborn. Gourmand is the second… because he feels humiliated. And Zach had to be thrown through by the Kratt bros.

Over all? The Octonauts crew couldn’t stand them. They were loud, annoying, and rude.

Uniquely charming, $1.1M Buckhead traditional has expansion inspired by a book

The charming dormers and detailing at 714 East Paces Ferry Road NE, with Buckhead’s Sovereign condo tower peeking over the trees. | Keller Williams Realty Peachtree Road

This Peachtree Park five-bedroom invites Atlantans to have their own Affair with a House

This updated traditional from 1936 in Buckhead’s Peachtree Park could appeal to Atlanta homebuyers whose idea of bliss involves copper guttering, slate roofing, arched doorways, and pecky cypress.

Blending a certain storybook quality with contemporary restraint, the expanded five-bedroom, four-bathroom property stands just south of Lenox Square, tucked between Piedmont Road and Ga. Highway 400.

Beyond the original structure, an addition by Atlanta-based architect Norman Askins was styled after the 18th century Connecticut manor home that renowned interior designer Bunny Williams chronicled in her 2005 design book An Affair with a House.

That additional space brought the square footage to 4,034 across three stories.

The front living room, off a small foyer, with original arched doorways.

The listing’s description of “special” would seem to apply to various aspects of the property, from the tastefully updated rooms of the original structure, to the convenient (if not totally necessary) dual kitchens, and the airy sunroom, with its heated floors to counter a winter’s chill outside so many windows.

Even the heated pool—and adjacent pool house—looks stylistically on point.

Listings indicate the home has been offered as a $4,700 monthly rental, but Keller Williams Realty Peachtree Road listed it this week for $1.1 million.

A side entry of the home leads to this main-level office space, and then on to formal dining.

A secondary catering kitchen in the main part of the home.

The Peacock Pavers flooring in the huge sunroom, connecting old spaces with new, is heated.

Pecky cypress ceilings from south Georgia top the chef’s kitchen and back family room. The kitchen also features a Sub-Zero fridge, wine cooler, Meile dishwasher, Fisher & Paykel drawers, a Wolf range with double gas ovens, and Carrera marble counters.

A barrel ceiling and sitting room in the master.

Traditional styling didn’t skip the regal master bathroom.

French doors in the family room lead to a covered porch, formal gardens, and the heated pool, with a side yard and pool house nearby.
