how are you so awesome and hot

[christmasbeetlecringe]

Y’all can someone watch them for me

[christmasbeetlecringe]

assorted paani n kwazii hcs

(not explicit / weird, just cute platonic / wholesome stuff that's sometimes hinted at in a&b and i've hyperfixated on it and other stuff i've just completely made up)

sometimes just for no reason whatever or just because it's easier or Kwazii loses his, he'll just use Paani's octowatch, kinda like in the alligator shark showdown.

BANTER. I WILL NOT ELABORATE. there's enough in the first ep of A&B to mull over.

their tails just sometimes entangle with each others, kinda like holding hands

chaotic evil meets chaotic good. you can figure out who

as alluded to in the alligator shark showdown, sometimes kwazii just uses paani's octowatch cause its closer. my hc is that he often loses his / breaks it so comes to rely on paani's octowatch.

sometimes paani's 'spontaneous and aYO dive right into danger and action without assistance' personality genuinely concerns him, which makes him reflect on his own spontaneous-ity . (first hinted at in the skeleton coast- kwazii: "you ! could've- asked for help ! >:0" paani: "¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i didn't think i'd need it :3"

i think that offscreen / later on in it'll shift from lighthearted / offhanded comments to serious discussions about how they octonauts rely and need eachother. maybe kwazii even projects a little bit and gets frustrated and kinda comes to like a full self realization.

they are t4t

in the beginning of the alligator / shark showdown, kwazii is just bumming around with paani in the gup k as paani does his nerdy hydrology logs. whenever kwazii isn't busy, he gets dashi to drop him to wheverever paani is and they just coincidentally bump into eachother and he tags along as paani just bumbles around like an idiot and nerds out about water.

similarly, kwazii approaches tweak about making the gup b a two seater. he's sometimes related to the other octonauts' spontaniety and energy but never, ever has he wanted to spend all his time, even when he's doing nothing, with someone else. he pitches it to tweak as just 'wanting to show paani the rush and speed and fun of deep sea speed' and tweak susses him out (gay, part 2)

both kwazii and paani get super competitive about their pilot skills after the first ep, and now both play multiplayer flight sims online, but they don't realize that they're actually playing together .

in the octonauts and the antartica rescue, where kwazii is trying to volunteer himself for the mission "you'd need someone who's agile as a cat, fearless as a pirate, and knows a lot about water💅", he's more upset about the fact that he wasn't able to go on the mission with paani, than the fact that barnacles thought he was talking about paani instead of himself.

sometiems they accidently pick up eachother's sayings, like in a mission without paani, kwazii just says 'hello h20 >:))" and tweak just silently susses him out (gay solidarity).

vice versa, there's tiems where paani will be on his board and just yoOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW

i think that's it !!! thanks for making it this far !!! give me some of ur kwazii n paani hcs !!!!!!!!! rahHH !!!!!!!

This is eldritch horror professor inkling :))) aka a DND juvenile kraken :))))) painted him meself :))))))

[christmasbeetlecringe]

nothing to add but: just that where inkling would be a big fan of like, wii sports like bowling n whatever, he would totally take all the wii remotes and try n play all the roles, kinda like in the ring of fire. he would royally suck at it, and try n do it in private / secret

Hiya! What video games dovyou think would be the Octonauts favorite?

HMM that’s a hard one...I’m sure people have done these kinds of posts before with more accuracy in mind, so I’m just gonna be Indulgent if that’s okay >:3c

Captain Barnacles only plays video games with the team, and they HAVE to be motion based, so he LOVES Just Dance and 1-2 Switch n that kind of stuff.

Professor Inkling is the same to an extent, but more with stuff like Wii Sports that doesn’t require as much full-body movement. I think he’d also be a Clubhouse Games fan for sure.

Kwazii and Tweak have similar taste in games, mainly because they often play them together. Tweak made her own gaming console on par with an NES or SNES, so she usually plays high score-based games like Pac-Man. She doesn’t have the time to commit to RPGs, as much as she’d probably really enjoy them, but sometimes she’s willing to stay up late playing Super Mario World for the sake of not losing progress. She’d also play fighting games with Kwazii probably, and they would be his favourite, but ultimately she’s always better than him at whatever they play because gaming is her ELEMENT. So yeah, Kwazii’s a Smash Bros fan, but the only person that plays with him is Tweak, but she’s not always around. Pinto and Koshi are ABSOLUTELY willing to try and take him on as a duo when they visit though, hehehe.

Peso’s an Animal Crossing guy, or at least someone who enjoys those mobile games where you can check in daily and play for a good 20 minutes, so not hardcore in the SLIGHTEST, haha. He’s not even really committed or “good” at the games since he’s a busy guy and it’s not his Most prevalent hobby, but he finds them relaxing and cute. I’d want to believe Pinto is the reason why he’d play a little more sometimes and try out different things, though :)

DASHI IS THE RPG FAN. She 100% gives me Deltarune and Mother fan vibes. She loves a good story with pretty environments and compelling characters, and her and Koshi tend to bond over their favourites together. She would love to commit to a life sim game like Animal Crossing because of the aesthetics and appeal of building a community from the ground up, but she VERY easily ditches them unfortunately. She is a handheld console player by heart and she LOVES playing on her pink Nintendo 3DS BECAUSE I SAID SO!!! (also Koshi is a YKW fan and a M&L RPG fan she is JUST like me fr!!!!!!!)

Shellington is very hard for me to think of something for LMFAO 😭 he doesn’t strike me as a Gamer...but I think he’d take an interest in Minecraft because of the vast landscapes and all the creatures n stuff. He definitely likes to explore around and modify the environments with some more scientifically accurate elements, such as the animals and plants, but overall he just has fun experimenting with the logic of the world and seeing how it’s ecosystem works differently from the real world. He also builds models to show the crew and educate the Vegimals sometimes :3 BUT he plays Exclusively on Creative Mode and on Peaceful settings because the first time he played on survival without knowing the difference he almost had a panic attack once it became nighttime. Again, though, not much of a gamer, so it’s really only a once in a while thing he does once it crosses his mind.

As a bonus: Paani also isn’t much of a gamer, but Minecraft is something he’s interested in, much like Shellington. Though the difference is he absolutely LOVES the thrill of playing on Survival Mode. He isn’t much better at it, he is nowhere NEAR going to the Nether or fighting the Ender Dragon, but the nightly brawls he has with all the mobs is a lot of fun. Pinto joining is even BETTER. He’s a mobile player so he can play with him no matter where he is! >:3c
