once at school I told my teacher that I was hyperfixated on the movie Penguins of Madagascar, and especially on Dave the Octopus
this woman, replies as if she had been waiting for this her whole life
,,this guy who only had 7 tentacles because they couldn't animate 8!"
I was in shock

hello there!! :3c i hope you don't mind my popping in to say, i'm very taken by this concept you have between Dr Octavius Brine and Captain Chantel DuBois!! i'd love to hear more about this idea you have, especially concerning the genetic disorder and how they meet - if you're comfortable sharing, of course 🥰 no pressure to reply - i hope you have yourself a wonderful day!!
That little kernel of an idea I'm still trying to plot out.
I was thinking I could probably knock out the revenge bit and have some kind of character driven story generated from angst and fear alone.
Also something a bit more grounded in reality.
I'm not quite sure if Octavius could be a medical kind of geneticist. (between genes and health) so I'm pretty open to that possibility when when he unexpectantly meets Chantel who has a hereditary genetic disorder that's possibly life threatening and he wants to help her deal with it.

Penguins of the Madagascar 200 follower event :D
So, Uh, this is one of the two that won [the other being We Happy Few], and so I write!
This is going off of a Intern! [Reader] for these, as that makes the most sense in the in-universe.
So, To start things off with a Dave's Intern reader, I should likely explain why you're an intern, and more specifically, Dave's intern.
Dr. Octavius Brine is a scientist, but we the audience know that he is an octopus. Well, he needs someone to take care of PR [Public Relations] and menial things like interviews, so he hires a little intern/assisstant to do things for him.
Now, he's sort of forgetful of you, [as seen by 'accidentally' kidnapping you when he asks you to follow him onto the sub]. Essentially, he asked you to come onto the submarine with him so that then he could talk to you about coming out to the public with a submarine and why does he have it? But then, he got confirmation that he got the penguins and he ordered Geoffrey "rush to Italy!" While you're on board.
Now, if this is the Reader who simply thinks, 'Eh, money is money', then the minute things that happen like his constant obsession with eating fish and adding octopus motifs onto things, are simply things you don't acknowledge. And realistically, it likely is, so that's another thing we're sticking with.
Now, Dave is already Needy with human's attention, so having one that doesn't care about him being an octopus? Well, he's very attached to his little assistant, waving off little concerns about why he needs an intern around so much with just "I'm teaching them, now, don't interupt me." Dave is Needy, as we just focused on, but also Overprotective due to most of the good things in his life leaving him for 'cuter' animals, like humans attention at zoos. He finds himself often coming closer to you when anyone talks to you [whether they be a scientist or reporter] and wrapping an arm [tentacle] around you as you speak to them, trying to ward them off without saying a word. Clingy is more-so another factor of him staying with you, sticking with your personality and person even when the reporters and scientists are long gone, leaving him to slowly crave your praise and adoration, rather than others. Of course, they still give him a dopamine rush, but nothing makes him happier he's making evil plans than hearing you praise his intelligence, listening to how your remarks on his newest research are in-depth and never thought about before.
The Penguins: A bit of a weirder version, as it's 4 differing people with differing personalities. With that in mind, there's no reason for a yandere version of them, so instead, they became yandere due to your shock of Dave's plan, and attempting to subtly help them, leads Private to be a little more friendly, a little more obsessed. Overall, the main traits they all have in common are: Impulsive [Rico], Self-Indulgent [Private, and Skipper, surprisingly], and Kowalski is an interesting case, since he's more-so into your mind, how does it work? What did you pick up while working with Dave? Etc, so he's not any one defining characteristic.
North Wind: Another four person group, so naturally, just the main few characteristics in order to keep this as orderly as possible. After the penguins help you out and the North Wind picks all of you up, you rest with the North Wind, having them pick your mind about Dave, and what he's planning and how to stop him. Of course, with such nonchalance, Classified is a little more skeptical and forgiving with Reader, as Reader is so chill. Main traits are: Possessive, Manipulative, and obsessive, with a major part being possessive, and manipulation coming in with "They worked with Dave! We have to keep them here otherwise they might reveal secrets to the world we can't let the world know" or any other excuse.

Would it be out of the question to think that Dave’s human disguise is his humansona or OC?
this is totally true!!! i've been calling 'Dr Octavius Brine' Dave's humansona for years 😂💖 i mean, yes, we could be dull and just call it a 'disguise' or a 'cover', but isn't it much funnier (and sweeter 🥺) to imagine Dave doodling his human self and posting it to DeviantArt? climbing out of his tank and stealing articles of clothing from the zoo employees to try on in secret? practicing walking like a biped? my heart 💖💖💖
baby's first cosplay 😭😭😭
