#rat rambles #splat posting #just wait until he figures out hes talking to the guy who was putting out all those sick beats during the lowest point of his life #hes going to be inconsolable #also sorry for the self indulgent mark posting Im just excited for him to get to do things again #despite technically having a lot going on Ive always felt that his limited relationships have made him the weak link of my agents #I love him sm and I love his dynamics with the others sm but he just doesnt have the bond with either of off the hook that I wish he did #but its kinda inevitable because he definitely was way too up his own ass during octo expansion to willingly talk to marina much #and pearl by extention #in fact cuttlefish is who he ended up closest to but hes been busy being off with his favorite children #so Im hoping thisll give me more ideas for him and pearl especially in the modern day when hes much more stable mentally #bestie survived the horrors of being 14 nothing will ever get as bad as that <3 #now would probably be a good time to read octo expansion retranslated tbh make sure Im not missing anything super important #itll probably also be good to make sure Im satisfied with the current state of marks octo expansion stuff and rework some stuff maybe #I probably wont touch it too much but I think maybe adding some early on mark marina interactions could be good #basically give him a frame of reference for what talking to her felt like before his old grudge starts to return to him #oh yeah btw for mark his temporary memory loss was from too much exposure to sanitized ink #he did in fact go there to sanitize himself the only reason he wasnt able to was because the fumes from the shower caused his movement to #get kinda fucked up along with his vision so he fumbled about for a bit as his body fought the bits of sanitized ink that got in his system #he thought he was straight up dying so he tried to retreat but ended up running into cuttle and sash and the rest is history #his mental and physical state would worsen a bit more and only after that would his body start to slowly but surely flush the stuff out #it wasnt nearly enough to properly sanitize him or cause any coloration but it was still very much enough to effect him poorly #part of the reason that the trials helped with the memory loss was that all that movement and moving ink through his systems helped a lot #but he still struggled a Lot with it initially due to his struggles with balance and coordination #even post oe he has worsened short term memory and has some nerve damage #so yay chronic pain time #despite this he's still a duelies squelcher main because ofc he is #but in all seriousness he often does have to wear wrist braces and has had times where hes had to take extended breaks from ink sporting #its smth he struggles to accept is a limitation for him especially since the whole reason he initially wanted to get sanitized was to focus #more on his combat skills and prove himself as a soldier of great importance
