Mild Spoilers for Splatoon 3 inkoming!
It's kinda funny that most octolings above 14 today probably interacted before the end of Splatoon 1.

THE LESBIANS ARE LESBIANING
Shiver wins again.
(This is art from 2023 pls don't kill me I do love Shiver it was just a rough time to be a Big Man fan (or Frye fan for that matter))
Non-blur version under the cut :3
I am not even joking.
do you see my vision
this was super fun to draw bc i feel like i've finally adapted my style to digital art and also this is two of my favorite wlw ships and im proud of myself for coming up with this :)
I’m a sucker for ‘childhood friends’ tropes
thanks, german translation, for showing once more how there's no heterosexual explanation for these two. that's like, the least subtle you can get short of having them kiss on screen.
they are so fucking gay for each other, it's incredible
Pearl calls Marina "her beauty" in the german translation of suffer no fools. I feel like all of you should know this.
as someone who's also some flavor of neurodivergent, it's actually disturbing to me how so many of yall are reducing her down to the most stereotypical autistic babygirl traits. and when there's more to it, or these just don't apply, respond like we're attacking her pure childlike image with our edgy headcanons or something.
the sentiment of "there's nothing deep about it, she's just autistic and it makes her quirky and clueless" i've often seen whenever her past, her culture, or her accomplishments come up, is... kinda concerning. and it's gotten plenty more common.
can't we collectively not be ableist, and understand that the fictional octopus woman is a whole complex grown adult with skeletons in her closet, and not an angelically innocent baby untainted by worldly filth? or does the word "autism" need to be removed from some people's vocabularies, at least in association with the word "baby".
the way Pearl instantly slammed down her "check out Marina she's so ***ing AWESOME" line so fast and it's the smoothest verse she spits in the rap battle-
she was SO READY to gush about Marina she was SO THERE for the chance and when it came she didn't even have to THINK
her going from casual barely-worth-my-time roasts and boasts (talking over Frye's turn like she isn't even there) to 'did you just call marina an imaginary friend?? YO ARE YOU CRAZY SHES AMAZING'
and THEN instead of getting defensive or pissed at Frye's 'oh so she's your groupie' jab she just turns hype man literally goes AS IF! LISTEN TO THIS! before bowing out so Marina can freeze Shiver solid by cheerfully taking every passive aggressive compliment from Shiver with a smile, a hearts eyes emoji, and an uno reverse card
Shiver: "Your voice is so haunting (possibly in a bad way) must be nice for your fans (implying it isn't so nice for anyone else)"
Marina, mimicking Shiver's singing: "You're far too kind! (i see you insulting me on the sly) Love your vibe! (that's very cute~) I can learn so much from your style! (i'll give you a taste of your own medicine if you want me to~)"
Shiver: "You remind me of my neighbor's daughter- (grow up) what do they say? Octo see octo do? (stop copying me)"
Marina: "Glad you approve- (im rubber you're glue) your praise has left me moved (not saying what KIND of moved tho). Thanks to your notes (you decide if i mean your feedback or your actual ability to hit musical notes) I'll find my own groove! (you're not actually worth copying for real~)"
Shiver: "Oh, look at the time. Isn't it getting late? (if you keep acting like a kid im going to treat you like one)"
Marina: "Not at all! I could go on like this all night long. (what do you mean? im having so much fun right now!) (oh but is this hard for you? ...do YOU need a break...?)"
and then Pearl barges in with a HOW'S THAT? YOU HAD ENOUGH YET??????
like kudos to Shiver and Frye for laying out some slick jabs, but they were working as two solo acts and didn't have a power couple combo move to counter Pearlina's with m(_ _)m ....they spent the whole time on offensive defense, trying to inflict some deep lyrical cuts while Pearl and Marina were happily tossing out hooks and reeling in fresh lines as they floated high up above on their dumb little rainbow cloud together
legit Pearl's only real reaction to Frye is her going <3 <3 <3 at Marina, and Marina not even treating Shiver as someone she needs to fight with while Shiver repeatedly tries poking at her, which Pearl sees and just effing LOVES ....amazing.......
no matter who you think rapped better, it's pretty clear which pair had the most fun and got the most kicks out of this (the wives)
WHICH IS EVEN FUNNIER BC IT'S HONEST TO COD JUST FRYE BURSTING INTO OFF THE HOOK'S GREEN ROOM AND YELLING AT THEM FOR DARING TO HAVE A CONCERT IN HER TOWN ONLY TO GET SMACKED IN THE FACE BY A RAINBOW LASER BEAM OF GAY MUSIC I LOVE IT XD
i'm currently on day two of begging people to please, please stop infantilizing marina. she's a grown woman, long time celebrity and news host, and 100% knows how rap battles work and that she was in one.
no, being very kind and autistic coded does not automatically make her oblivious to the point of being totally unable to understand sarcasm, or unable to be mean to anyone.
and, it's true that being naive doesn't in itself make someone less intelligent, but with her background, she'd have to be kinda dumb to not have picked up these social skills eventually (autistic people can do that). which wouldn't work, because dumb, she certainly is not. the opposite, actually, in case anyone forgot.
let the girl have her win she got by turning shiver's strategy against them. stop downplaying what she's capable of in favor of presenting her as just a little uwu cute wholesome bean too pure for this world ❤️. that's a public figure, a prodigy combat engineer who deserted her whole militarized society, and a grown lesbian who probably lays with her wife on a regular basis, not the awkward clueless tism girlie there for you to project yourselves onto.
And with that, the grand festival is over…
Thank you so much to everyone who played, whether we were on the same team or not it was an absolute honor to fight with you all. This felt truly special in a way no other splatfest has before. No matter what the outcome is I am extremely proud to have participated!
I genuinely had so much more fun with this splatfest than any of the others I’ve participated in, it was probably the most fun I’ve ever had playing splatoon. I didn’t start playing splatoon 2 until we’ll after it’s final fest, and so the grand fest really did feel like a finale for me. It allowed me to come full circle in my splatoon journey.
So to everybody who participated:
HAPPY GRAND FESTIVAL
Been thinking about a reversed splatoon universe so I used this to make some of the idols as the other species. The only real name change is that it would be the Octo sisters
Had a friend inspire me to make a Splatoon OC for fun, here's my salmonid fella who snuck his way into society somehow
Hows everyone liking Side Order so far??? It made me wanna do a little warmup for today 🐙🐟
This takes place a little before the events of Splatoon 3. And I am of the opinion that the agents have all accidentally (unwillingly) seen them naked at some point since Eight escaped the Metro.
Please be kind, this is my first time doing a whole ass comic. How do people do this on the regular...
B-SIDE is now up!
