IMG: candid photo of Red Flare District's (alleged) bassist, Deryn Doe. Wanted for illegal data brokering as of 09/10/122023.

Excerpt from interview with two three members of Red Flare District, Inkopolis News Network; 6 September 122023:

------

Q: So, i take it the band's second single was composed and arranged primarily by... Haddock, was it? Hiddock (he/him), guitarist: Hiddock. Deryn (presumed she/her), bassist: [incoherent] St. Tuna Piano (he/him), frontman & drummer: Yeah, no input from me at all, man. Real inspiring stuff. Shame Petr coul'n't sing vocals again. Q: ... What was the reason this time? St. Tuna Piano: Cuz 'e choked on a bell pepper, that's wot. Irrevokably out o' commission. Deryn: [incoherent] Hiddock: Truth be told, I was initially inspired after our day trip to Um'ami — er, before it flooded last week, that is — but it wasn't until Shipshape Cargo Co. broke into the whole Turf War shtick that this idea just... arose through spontaneous generation; Squid Athena being birthed, fully formed, from her own skull. I mean, like, this new battleground floats through the remains of the polar ice caps — in essence, the impetus of both humanity's extinction and the Great Turf War, now used for a mundane cargo route and commercialized inkspewing. Don't you think that's oddly messed up? Q: Couldn't say. Anyway: there seems to be some degree of curiousity regarding a sample used around the one-minute mark. Any remarks? Hiddock: From a demo tape we found. Lost media; fit the theme. You wouldn't believe if we told you how we got it. Deryn: [fervent babble; no less comprensible] Q: I... don't believe she was even invited to this interview. How, uh... why is your bassist present? Hiddock: Well, "present" isn't... the word I would use. She's here, certainly. St. Tuna Piano: She comes n' goes as she pleases. Sorry if she touches anythin', 'er hands get all sticky. Q: Yes, but where did she come from? St. Tuna Piano: Same place anyone does, I 'xpect. Hiddock: Under a bridge. St. Tuna Piano (abruptly): Don't worry about it. We, eh, take care of her. Or somethin'.

Went on recon this morning and noticed that on the new Shipshape Cargo map you get splashes on your screen when you go near the water

[aearabelle]

so I noticed on the new ship stage there's ice in the background, which means they probably aren't in Splatlandian/Inkadian waters… do they just like stow away on the ship until it's in the middle of the ocean??

[totaldramafan-lauri]

LOOK AT THEMMMMMM!!! Frye is cute, Big Man looks so flipping cool in that pattern, and Shiver! Is! SO GORGEOUS!!!! *cough* A-anyway-

FrostyFest has been going great so far! A fair amount of losses, sure, but a lot of wins, too! My first win of the day was a 10x battle, even....I feel like I've been pulling my weight, and getting some good teams, too! Not one mirror match also! Things are looking good so far....

Also, uh.....I-I think I have a new favorite map....(In 3) This is a map I've played on before, but never this much in one session....So, it took me a while to realize just how much I love it....A-and I'm willing to bet that, like with Moray, this is a map that has its haters somewhere, and that's fine, cuz this is a weird one....

I've come to really, really like Shipshape Cargo Co.

I-I can't help it....It's just so FUN! Nearly every match I've had on it has been fun! It feels so GOOD to snipe there! The perfect size, and sooooo much good high ground.....Taking the middle feels great, cuz you can overlook soooo much of the enemy base...It's like an even better Eeltail Alley! I-I wish I could've realized how fun this map was sooner than this, but....I am not complaining about playing on it so much!

I-I know this probably sounds like a really random choice for favorite stage, and I dunno how many agree with me, but.....that's just my taste, really.....XD

It's no Moray, which I still miss, but it'll definitely do! I'm happy to have so much love for a new 3 stage! >v< Cuz I already know what my fav 1 and 2 stages are. XD

Speaking of which....Bluefin Depot's back? My prayers are answered! Now, all that will be lost when 1's online goes down will be Saltspray Rig and Urchin Underpass......I'm nostalgic for both of those, but Bluefin was my favorite of the three easily. Glad to have it back!

Here's hoping I can keep up this momentum in Tricolor tomorrow, but.....I-I flipping sucked at that last time, so I don't have a lot of confidence.....I-I'll try by best for Shiver's revenge, tho!!

This Splatfest really said “Oops! All Flounder Heights 🤷🏾‍♀️”

[soup-guts]

Eight losses in a row I’m gonna splat somebody I stg

[invisibleoctopus]

so like is tartar actually confirmed dead or are people just ASSUMING its dead bc it died in the manga + it said that thing about reuniting with the professor but like. maybe it THOUGHT it was gonna die and then it stayed alive somehow

my personal copium theory is maybe the salmonids found it and like rebuilt tartar or saved it somehow and tartar is like "we both hate inklings why dont we work together also maybe u guys are the ones who should replace humans hahaha jk unless...

because i dont know why the fuck else they would put the blender leitmotif there as the song fish sticks sing to encourage the other salmonids to fight harder !!!!

and how the new omega 3 songs have the timpani in the beginning doing the same rhythm as when the NILS statue emerges (which also parallels the scrappers having octavio's theme when u stun them)

I'd like to upload this as an act of shame on our team's Custom Splattershot Jr. Legit troglodyte behavior.

new video gang go wild

it's another deep dive, this time for the drizzle 2023 stages, crableg capital and shipshape cargo co

[redshift-corridor]

It's nice to see they're bringing back the old SR gear, now what I really want is for them to add the Oceanic Hardhat and remake my old work outfit

[gloogapropaganda]

ouch. (part 2 of 2)

[splat-details]

are there any more hidden goobers like marie’s pet scallop?

hmmm..... honestly that little guy is a bit of an outlier, most of the time unique species dont have models unless theyre clearly visible to the player

off the top of my head, some levels in octo expansion have other sea cucumbers hanging out, but as much as i love them, they are just cq cumber retextures lol

there are also some tiny little flying fish that pop up in shipshape cargo co, if you wanna count them

and of course the snapper canal ducks

this one doesnt really fit your request since its just art, but theres this specific poster seen in inkblot art academy but ONLY in splatoon 2, they changed it in splatoon 3 and i miss it </3

random splatoon lore shit 2(?)

so it has come to attention that a lot of people don't know about the deepcut news dialogues because they were only added in like a year ago 😭. poor deepcut man so I'm gonna highlight some of my favourites and rank em

1. lemuria hub

I find these quotes so funny because it really brings into perspective that turf wars happen in random ass real places 😭 like imagine if you were walking though a peaceful plaza and suddenly 8 footballers appear violently play for 3 mins and then leave without saying a word. it really brings together the fact that the splatoon world is real and functional and people live there (✨worldbuilding✨)

here's another one about this

I may be dumb interpreting this one but this adds onto my metaphor and makes it even funnier 😭 if I'm reading it right (correct me if I'm not) people are literally missing their trains because the allure to throw hands in a public space is just too high. now imagine my previous metaphor but instead of footballers a bunch of random ass guys who were sitting down exhausted spring to live and violently play their hearts out, only to realise they missed the train home. hmm I got sidetracked

overall: 7/10 quotes - funny in verse but I'm biased and lemuria smells

2. makomart

frye on team sweet has been really consistent characterisation for our favourite rotten tooth goblin . girl doesn't have a sweet tooth I'm starting to think it's some sort of addiction 😭. "oh guys I'm sorry the food just happened to fly out of my hands and I added 9 sugars whoopsies silly me". also the more I read the more I realise big man is the tired dad of deepcut with 2 rabid kids.

overall: 6/10 - someone fix Frye's taste buds

bonus: bag chaser shiver

shiver is actually so funny with the ads like I cannot 😭 girl wants a sponsor so bad she be dropping plugs on basically all of the stages it's acc crazy

HELP WHY IS SHE A PR MACHINE THEYRE NOT EVEN GETTING PAID 😭😭😭😭

I found another bonus for shipshape but that one has a few others I wanna talk about so I'll mention that next time
