I requested art from Pop so here's my art they got in return :p enjoy the flufffff :D

[boiled-ginger-ale]

peso sometimes does internal checkups(especially with kwazii who has on occasion sustained injury to his stomach lining from eating things he shouldnt)

problem is kwazii has figured out he can feign injury to get a friend really easily (the mask slips almost immediately but peso is a bit oblivious)

[prompt was initially by @roseytoesy ]

Kwazii may have gotten a little too silly

Nom-onaut headcanons pt. 1

I'm making this a part 1 cause over time I keep getting more ideas. From the octoagents to episodes and stuff I find elsewhere on the internet. This part covers shellington, inkling, tweek, and some other general ideas I've had.

anyway! everything else under the cut.

Recently tried to draw the crew and got alot of fun ideas from doing that.

Shellington being a sea otter means that he is not built for walking like at all. He has very large clumsy flat feet. This explains why he trips over himself so often.

His AuDHD makes him so book smart, but so stupid once out of his lab.

He and inkling hang out often in the library or lab depending on who is busier.

He and dashi get along great too!

He collects a bunch of little rocks and has used them like tools every once in a while. he keeps his most handy one in his book bag.

He also fidgets horrendously with anything nearby. usually a rock in his hand or the strap of his satchel.

Unfortunately Tweek has a bit of a cold shoulder to him due to how often he crashed her precious gups. But would happily reteach him some driving lessons. unfortunetly he is so scared of that florida girl.

The vegimals will have their own post + art i did of them to better capture their fish counterpart colors and bodies.

Professor inkling is likely in his late 50's. or so it seems to me

With his 8-9 brains as octopi have, he's incredibly smart, able to memorize most of a book in one sitting.

He can taste through his tentacles and keeps his suckers as lax as possible to not stick to too many things, though his gripping ability is quite strong.

This is shown in the rainforest above and beyond episode, he memorized that manual pretty fast even when under pressure.

anyway, Inkling is also very aware of his restrictions on land, and his chair has a little misting function to keep him wet.

there is a hidden tank in the library where he sleeps.

Thanks to being boneless, he has some fun around Halloween being contorted and jump scaring some of the others by hopping out of odd tiny spaces. having no bones is pretty fun.

though if he's particularly tired he kinda flattens when outside of water. eepy puddle.

Inkling has had many experiences being eaten by his larger cousins, he and his family do safe noms all the time.

So it was honestly fine that he was the first of any of the octonauts to be eaten. he was a bit confused but the whole experience was fairly familiar.

Inklings ears flap when he's happy, droop when sad, and flatten back when upset.

He can also change his colors but wasn't recognized so he tries to keep himself as his neutral pink.

Tweek Is a full on crazy Florida girl.

Marsh rabbits are amazing swimmers and apparently lack a tail.

her hearing is amazing and her ears twitch when she focuses on listening.

She is a night owl, staying up late working on tinkering, building, and planning.

Her forearms and hands are stained black due to how much oil and other mechanical grease she has had covering them.

She insists she doesn't have a favorite gup its the Gup X. but she is also very proud of the Gup V the vegimals made.

She has fun gaming nights with Kwazii, and they play fight often, sometimes even wrestle, she usually wins too but Kwazii will never admit it.

Her kicks are deadly, and if she's angry you can hear and feel her stomping through the entire octopod.

Though he is also an amazing swimmer and can easily navigate through dense roots and vegetation. Her ears are also very expressive.

Her fur isn't truly green. her fur is mostly a light brown, she's green due to an accident with an early dye machine she made. It was unfortunately permanent so she's green almost everywhere, except for the bottom of her feet.

Other headcannons:

The fish biscuits use a lot of kelp which is apparently rich in a lot of vitamins and minerals, they are flavored with fish oil to trick predators.

Kwazii, Barnacles, Peso, Shellington, and Inkling need a special added protein to satiate some more dangerous predatory instincts, especially when helping so many easily eaten little creatures. They also take some supplements for anything else they may be missing in their natural diet.

The octopod and the gups have a bit of a special AI that helps them help the octonauts. Its very minor, but it comes in handy when the gups are able to pull a bit harder despite supposedly giving it all it mechanically could.

There is a bit of truth to all of Kwazii's stories thanks to the mysterious forces that lurk in the ocean, there are also many mythological things, only one or two but still they are there.

Kwazii has a unique ability to sense any supernatural beings.

Each character likes to collect different things.

Shellington likes little rocks

Inkling likes old books, memorabilia, and other old artifacts and items.

Dashi loves old pictures, sea-glass, and anything unusual

Tweek loves old toys and metal scrap, she's made some tiny statues and tiny machines out of scraps.

the vegimals love to plant any mystery seeds they find floating around.

Kwazii loves anything pirate related, or anything like gold and precious items like goblets and jewelry.

Barnacles will appreciate anything given to him, but he especially loves little mementos from missions.

[bramblebrushbellies]

It's Dashi's turn!!

No one really knows when Dashi first learned about the noms. She just kinda... figured it out at some point and didn't care. I like to think that caused a little scenario that went something like this...

Dashi, walking into the HQ at like midnight: hey, Captain, do you know where Kwazii ended up? I didn't see him head up to his room or anything...

Barnacles, who'd dozed off with his paw over his stomach, very clearly flustered and panicking: oh! I- uh... well, you see- er...

Dashi: ah, spending the night in your stomach? Got it, cool. Night, Cap'n!

Barnacles: ???

Anyway, Dashi is absolutely a prey. I mean, you saw her in that whaleshark episode. My girl was ✨️unbothered✨️. She just thinks it's so cool! I mean, literally just being INSIDE another living creature? And NOT being hurt AT ALL!? So awesome! Plus, never before seen footage of the inside of a polar bear's stomach, she's SO getting on the cover of National Seaographic now!

She's a very energetic prey... sometimes too much so. Her excitement is prone to causing tummyaches. She calms down a bit when there's someone else with her to remind her to chill tf out.

She doesn't do well as a pred, though. She finds the feeling of something alive being in her stomach too weird (ironically), and would only ever swallow someone in extreme emergency cases... even then, her first move would be handing whoever to someone else, likely Barnacles, to deal with.

She tastes like fresh fruit, mostly raspberries

I have also joined this hyperfixation and will likely start octoposting sorry not sorry

What if i told you i havent done todays hermit a day because i became violently obsessed with octonauts

Would you hate me

[boiled-ginger-ale]

i have not thought about octonauts since i was a kid how dare you and sussy-imposter make me care about it again through vore

(fr tho ur art is so cute)

hehehee we are infecting everyone with the brainrot :))) which is good because theres like only 5 people participating and i need MORE

why do i keep getting hooked on the most niche interests ;-; i cant keep making all of the content i wanna see myself;;;

[boiled-ginger-ale]

doodle dump! :D

i apparently draw a lot for the discord lol and keep forgetting to add it here too-

love sleepy/instinct high kwazii makin bad choices, not to mention im pretty sure someone asked for more kwazii so yayyyy ill still do more stuff but heres this at least!!

[boiled-ginger-ale]

Kwazii youre a shit liar and you know it

[boiled-ginger-ale]

Hiiiii~

Ya wanted an ask to draw so here ya go!

I just adore how you draw the vegimals. Maybe something with tunip and the captain? Both leaders of their own little crews taking a well deserved nap together.

captain isnt really used to swallowing anything that big yet- but he cares a lot about his crew and would probably let them shoot him in the foot if they asked nicely /hj

i love them <3

[boiled-ginger-ale]

Lotsa doodles of no relation to eachother i just wanted to draw the guys :3

I do not think i have a firm grasp on how the vegimals are supposed to look

I just think the main 3 deserve to be soft with eachother…. theyre family ur honor they shouldnt be separated

Also im not apologizing for the kids show propaganda yall knew i was insane when ya followed me i will not answer for my crimes

[a-smol-storm-gt-nomfs-blog]

Welp, first art for this fandom and its a comic (I have not drawn any of them before this hence the change in style) ANYWAYS Have the boys :p expect more of the captain, hes my fave :p also I blame shroom and Pop for this /j /lh Edit: Somehow I realized Just this morning that I had left the shading off on the first page, its fixed, I don't know how I didn't see that.

[boiled-ginger-ale]

i love characters that get so soft and cuddly when sleepy i love when theyre so comfortable around the people they love that they fall into instinct habits because theyre just so content i love physical affection between besties i love the utter confusion of someone experiencing a sleepy trait for the first time i love how cats act when theyre happy i love when prey gets a bit squooshed by someone else trying to show they care i love pudgy preds i love

[roseytoesy]

Comfort and biscuits

Cute little story to go with this amazing art by @boiled-ginger-ale

It was another quiet night on the octopod. After a long day of ensuring the ocean ecosystem was as it should be. Peso was exhausted after wrapping so many bandages for so many creatures who had been hurt after an earthquake. So knowing it had been a long day for him and the captain. Peso decided that he wanted to spend the night with the polarbear. For them both to regain some well needed rest.

Peso waddled down the hall toward the captain's room. He gently knocked on the door and heard some shuffling as the captain opened the door.

“Ah peso. Come in.” Barnacles said moving aside from the doorway to let his medic pass him into the cozy room. The water outside the windows were dark with the night, some small fish swimming by.

Peso waddled up to the window with a quiet thanks to the captain. He stood next to the penguin looking over the dark reef they had helped rebuild just earlier that day. While barnacles looked out peso tapped his flippers together before turning and gently pressing his head against the captain's middle. A sign he used with barnacles and Kwazii that they called the “eat me please” head bonk.

As peso gently head bonked barnacles middle, the captain startled a bit looking down and seeing peso gently hugging at his middle and trying to wrap his arms around the captains front he easily got the message. He reached a paw down toward the medic.

“What’s up? Do you…” he trailed the question off. And peso immediately answered.

“Yes please.” He mumbled before looking up at the captain with big hopeful eyes.

“I’ve got you peso. Thank you for trusting me.”

Barnacles said in a soft voice taking a knee to be more eye level with the smaller crewmate. Peso nodded with a smile before pushing the buttons on his collar. A small beep sounded as he shrank. The captain easily scooped the small medic off of the floor. Humming another thanks before opening wide, letting the penguin crawl inside at his own pace. After a few seconds of enjoying the little guys taste, barnacles tipped his head back and swallowed. Peso went down head first and slid down rapidly thanks to his aerodynamic form. In a second he slipped into the captain's spacious stomach, the organ grumbling its unique hello as it squished down a bit on its occupant. Peso patted back at the organ. He hummed happily as he settled into his usual nook in the soft darkness.

The captain patted back and sighed happily at the warm fuzzy feeling in his mind. He lay back in his bed, closing his eyes and focused on the small weight comfortably settled in his core.

Meanwhile Kwazii had overheard the small bit of chatting as he was planning to just hangout with the captain and share some fun stories and stare out into the sea with fun plans of the future. He waited somewhat awkwardly for a few minutes before walking into the room. Trying to act surprised that the captain was already in bed.

“Ah Kwazii, what’s up?” The captain said trying to keep his voice even.

“I was just lookin ta hang out with ya cap’n. It’s a nice night for it.” Kwazi said, sitting next to the captain's side and looking out into the dark waters. Small beams of moonlight dancing along the surface far above them.

“I- alright. That’s fine.” The captain said laying back again.

Kwazii happily laid back perpendicular to his bigger friend. Resting against his middle. As he smiled at the polarbear who looked conflicted. Kwazii decided to ease up on the act. “So how are ya peso?” Kwazii asked aloud while laying against the captain's middle. He felt the polar bear tense as the penguin replied.

“Oh hi Kwazii. I’m doing ok. Just… wanted a sleepover, today was long.” Peso said pushing out a bit as he now knew it was Kwazii pushing down on him. The captain gave a small cough after that. Kwazii giving his friend a big mischievous grin. Obviously he knew the whole time.

“Alright fine, you got me.” The captain said with a dramatic tone. “So do you want in?~” he teased, starting to sit up.

“Nah I’m good matey. It’s nice to spend the night with me cap’n and me best friend.”

“Awwwww. I’m your best friend Kwazii?” Peso asked, unable to help the big smile on his face.

“Aye.” Kwazii answered, letting himself relax across the captain's chest. Now turned on his front.

“Love ya too~” peso teased. Kwazii let out a grumble that turned to a purr as the captain placed an arm over kwazii’s back letting out a yawn.

Kwazii moved to get more comfortable. As he yawned as well. Moving almost robotically and placing a hand on the captain's tummy. He froze ears perking up and a purr rumbling out of his chest, his arms relaxing to his sides and his paws now both on barnacles’s middle. The captain was about to ask what he was up to before he shuttered a breath as Kwazii sank his paws in toward peso. Then released. And back down. Kneading at his little friend within the captain.one paw down and the other coming up. Peso was rather confused at the repeated squishing motion and the captain had no idea how to get Kwazii to stop, but then again some part of his mind didn’t want him to stop. The movements felt really nice, shifting and moving that delicious little weight at his core.

After a minute the captain kinda shook his head and looked at Kwazii who was purring with eyes closed, focused on kneading the polar bear's stomach. “Um… Kwazii? He asked after a moment. Hearing peso ask quietly about the captain but the didn’t quite catch it.

“Kwazii.” He said again, a bit louder.

“Ah- wha?” Kwazii blinked a few times before looking at the captian who was looking at his hands now both squishing into the soft surface of his belly. Kwazii pulled his hands back as if he were burned and then lost his balance falling back with a “yow!” Then an “Oof!” As he landed on his back.

“Captain?! Kwazii?! What was that?! Are you ok?!” Peso called out.

“Er… he's fine, peso.” Barnacles said as he sat up.

“I’m sorry captain!” Kwazii blurted. Scrambling back. “I just, got really comfortable and then that happened. So soft… and those… instincts kinda hit cause peso was tucked away, and I guess that mixed with me cat instincts to knead when happy and-and uh. I should… stop talking so fast…” Kwazii rambled trying to atone for the odd action feeling bad at how uncomfortable barnacles had looked.

The polar bear sighed. “It’s alright Kwazii. I just… had never felt something like that. It felt… nice.”

“Really nice! cause I could feel him trying to purr!” Peso shout added. Barnacles looked away a bit flustered at that.

“Can we uh, keep this to ourselves.” The captian asked sheepishly

“Was already plannin’ on it.” Kwazii said quickly standing up and dusting himself off. The captain scooted over in bed patting the spot next to him.

Kwazii hesitated for a moment before crawling next to the captains side, back facing barnacles while he lay on his side. Barnacles hummed at that. Hitting the lights in the room. Cozy with his two closest crew mates. One safe inside. Another close by. They all smiled in their sleep feeling the warmth of found family and safety in each other.
