#Mirtillo the Peppiclone

[ask-the-totally-real-peppino]

Gonna be honest every single time I see ya draw a baby clone I just feel like my heart's gonna explode from cuteness- [ like seriously they're so cute I can't take it!!!!!! Stop before my heart explodes!!!!! /Lh ]

(Get exploded anon (lighthearted/silly!!!)

Or perhaps you would like slighter older but still baby clones!!!

But really, thank you!!! I do love to draw babies hehe)

What were their names, Pep?

Pep: "Lla meht deman I! Rebmemer I esruoc fo!"

(Peaking into Pep memory~)

(Top Row, Left to Right: Parmesan, Prosciutto, Halloumi

Bottom Row, Left to Right: Honeypot, Cremepuff, Maraschino)

(Porto - Light Grey Fake Peppino, Bello - Dark Grey Fake Peppino

Jalapeño - Green Peppino Clone, Mirtillo - Purple Peppino Clone)

Pep: "Eman a teg ot hguone gnol yats t'ndid yeht tub, tnew dna emac taht srehto erew ereht."

I'll Be Seeing You by Billie Holiday. Good taste in music pep! Oh yeah we kind of saw some of your memories there. seems that tune might be connected to some of those odd memories. know anything else about the song or the lyrics?

Does the year 1938 mean anything to you?

Pep: "Esnes sekam taht fi... Ti nwonk? Adnik syawla ev'I... Gnos eht draeh I erehw erus ton ma I..."

Pep: "Yltcaxe si raey a tahw wonk yllaer neve t'nod I... Rehtie em ot gnihtyna naem t'nseod raey taht."

Pep: "Esuaceb tsuj ro gnikooc m'I nehw yllausu... Gnignis yojne od I tub!"

Pep: "Ekil gnihtemos tnew etiruovaf rieht kniht I; Gnos a tuohtiw peels t'ndluow emos. Oot ti deyojne seno elttil eht!"

"Rest your head Sleep soundly, my dear There's nothing to fear Your Mama is here~ You're safe and warm Here in my arms There's no need for alarm Just listen to this lullaby's charm~ Now close your eyes And turn out the light I will be here with you As you sleep through the night~ As you sleep through the night~"

Pep: "Gnos eht... Ho!"

Pep: "..."

You mentioned once that Eg has both polecat and dart frog DNA, right? That implies that other clones can have more than one type of animal mixed with them. Thinking of the possibilities is exciting :)

(That is correct! Now it is time for 'Bean talks about clone OCs again!!!' (Also Bean is not a scientist, and we are using cartoon logic, so do not come at them for inaccuracy!!!)

In the most simple of terms, there are three groups that clones can be classified into! (Well, four, but we'll get into that)

The first group is clones with just a single species of animal (or plant!) spliced into their DNA, with examples being Spud (Star-Nosed Mole) and Mirtillo (Common Vampire Bat)

These guys are probably second most common! Giving clones specific traits without the risk of mixing DNAs and causing the clone to explode or something

The second group is clones with more than one set of DNA, but those animals are all the same species, ie Vitelotte having only spider DNA (Jumping Spider, Wolf Spider, Tarantula etc (side note, no specific subspecies bc there are so many spiders I do not have the spoons to look through them all and pick some out kjfdsjf)), and Mint Chip having shark DNA (Tiger Shark and Thresher Shark)

These guys are probably the most common type as they (the scientists) were giving clones specific traits from animals like the singular DNA clones, but also did not want to be limited if one type of species could do something another couldn't

And then Eg falls into the third group of having more than one set of DNA from different animals! As mentioned, she has Striped Polecat (aka African Skunk or Zorilla) and Blue Poison Dart Frog DNA! Another example, bc I need to have two examples, is BB, who is a mix of Boer Goat, African Lion, Ball Python, and King Cobra!

This group is the rarest out of the three, bc mashing together DNAs like that often resulted in failure, but that does not mean they are few and far between!

And last, but not least, special cases!!! This is the group Pep falls into, even tho he should technically be in the third group, he is packed with so many different kinds of DNA, he is very much an outlier here

And there are a few other outliers, who would also technically be in one of the previous groups, but what makes them different is that they were not purposely spliced with certain DNAs, and were the result of cross-breeding (two (or more) different clones with different DNAs making a baby), or cannibalism (eating another clone and absorbing their set(s) of DNA)

I can't wait for the story to start back up !! I wanna interact with the sillies :DD

Also !!!

Its the bat fella :3

(I can't wait, either! Oh boy, I sure hope the artist remembered where the hell they were in the script jkfdkjfd (silly!!!)

BUT OGUHT, MY BAT BABY!!! Oh, they are so cute with their big, doe eyes and little bean brows hehehehe

Thank you so much!!!)
