RANDOM STUFF

- Mario and Luigi are their stage names, taken from an old human video game. (They don't ever use their real names anymore though, so who cares who they really are?) They like to use glitch effects and reference games.

- Saiko is Agent 8. She's also Shiver from Deep Cut, and (this was originally a joke but I thought it was funny so I kept it in) Off the Hook is Chris and Swag- They gave Saiko (psycho) her name because one time she raged so hard in an 8-ball level she almost fucking killed C.Q. Cumber with her bare hands, after repeatedly dying and being forced to listen to the annoying people over the walkie-talkie being little shitheads to her. (This lore will DEFINITELY NOT hold up when Side Order comes out lmao)

- Boopkins is some kind of fish, like Finn Feeder from Bottom Feeders. Except that he's Boopkins and not a hot violinist- I MEAN- UHH-

- Aside from that, everyone else is pretty much just a normal Inkling.

- I accidentally made SMG3 trans coded in my first drawing so I just went "fuck it, he can be trans, Splatoon is hella queer anyways" Aaaand he still got the fem Octo eye mask now in the Fuzzy drawing :D

(Third person) (This is a very short chapter lol)

Everything was so big...

Well, it usually was, if you were in your smaller form. Which Three was. But it was also a new place that scared him, which made it seem so much more huge. The buildings, the colors...

SMG3 was in his Octo form, slightly poking out of the scarf Agent 4 was carrying him in to see Inkopolis. He watched the new world fly by, but made sure he stayed mostly hidden.

"Okay, I- ...dammit... you can't understand me..." He said that in Round, so Three had no fucking idea what he said. They both really hoped they shared one script, but...they doubted it.

They spent a while just getting back to Four's Ke- Four's home. Apartment. Whatever. It was actually pretty nice, maybe not by normal Inkling standards but to someone who'd been living in an underground hellhole his entire life it was warm and comforting. Ink-stained weapons were piled in the corner, one wall was plastered with the lowest tiers of stickers and medals like trophies, and the couch was covered in an assortment of games, devices, and even a broken Ink Tank...

It looked like a nice, well-lived in home.

"You can't understand me, but, uhh, you can come out now, I guess," Four said. He placed the bundle of cloth on his bed and Three snapped out of it, quickly shifting into his normal form, accidentally tangling himself up in the scarf. He cursed a little and pulled it off his head, glaring when Four giggled.

SMG3 suddenly felt...very sleepy. What? Didn't he wake up not too long ago?... knocked-out sleep worked the same as resting-sleep...didn't it?

Guess not...

(SMG4's POV)

Literal seconds after I put him down on the bed, SMG3 fell asleep. 

Poor guy. The Low-Tide ink knocked him out earlier, which couldn't have done any good...and he's been running for who-knows-how-long, avoiding the Octarian government! We could figure this out later, I wasn't about to wake him up. So I pulled the covers over him, and left him alone.

🔎 how do octarians work 

...

Oh hell no, this scientific paper n shit looks boring as hell! Plus, it's from the Splatlands... the Splatlandian Octolings are a little different.

🔎 what do octolings eat

...

Just more stuff about Splatlandian ones...

Wait- what am I thinking? I'm being dumb. Of course SMG3 would be able to eat normal food, the Octolings can't be that much different- agh, I need to stop thinking of them like...mindless creatures! Stupid, stupid, stupid...

🔎 all Inkling Scripts

There. I'll keep this tab open for later, so maybe I'll be able to figure something out? Maybe.

Probably not... can't hurt to find out.

What did I get myself into?
