They’re freaking in love

This came to me in a vision

I was thinking about how we had a Callie Vs Marie splatfest, and a Shiver vs Frye vs Big Man splatfest but thankfully no Pearl vs Marina splatfest. My reasoning for why we didn't was because Callie and Marie are cousins, and Deep Cut is a trio of friends. Both cousins and friends are very likely to ask who is better/who's in charge? But Pearl and Marina are different, their friendship is different (their lesbians) So I was thinking since their so connected (married) they wouldn't ask who was "the better one" since that's unhealthy for a relationship but since their actually married lesbians they might ask, "Who's Gayer For The Other"

So yeah

Absolutely trash for these dorks.

Happy pride, and happy belated 5th birthday to Octo Expansion.

Pearl:Sorry... I mean, I always knew you were different, even if we never talked about it. I always figured...you know... with the jokes and stuff...


Marina: never knew how to talk to you about it. Do you think...


Marina: Do you think I'll still be welcome in Inkopolis? Once everyone knows I'm an Octoling?


Pearl: ARE YOU KIDDING? Of course you will! everyone loves you!


Marina: Thanks, Pearlie. ;__;


Pearl: OK stop it with the waterworks before I change my mind

Marina: Haha, remember when we first met, Pearl? I had just come to the surface, and I didn't understand Inkopolis at all. You taught me everything I needed to know.

Pearl: LOL yeah. I remember thinking you were some country bumpkin when we first met on Mt. Nantai.

Marina:I went to Mount Nantai every day for a week, just hoping you would show up again.


Pearl: Bahaha yeah, I thought you were a stalker. I remember you singing when I showed up and then out of nowhere you were all like "LET'S START A BAND!"


Marina: I just had a feeling about you. I guess it worked out, cause look at us now!

Pearl: They're a pain but not really scary. Fighting Marina in that first tower was WAY scarier.

Marina: What?! R-really?

Pearl: Obviously! Wondering if you were stuck that way forever, never going back to normal... I was scared!

Other:

• Pearl is portrayed as very handsome and knowledgeable, similar to shōjo love interests when drawn by Marina (Dear Pearl Manga)

•A large amount of sparkles and flower petals are present in almost every panel that features Pearl that Marina Draws (Dear Pearl Manga)

•At the end of the manga, it is revealed that Marina is writing a confession letter to Pearl, which likely contains the title in its greeting. Alternatively, the manga as a whole may be intended as a love letter to Pearl (Dear Pearl Manga)

•Marina: "[she is] so small...but [she is] so big." In the panels showing the letter that Marina is writing, she muses about wanting to shout out "these feelings [for Pearl]"(Dear Pearl Manga)

•In the Japanese version of the Splatoon Base website, Marina was labeled as a "maiden in love" in her feelings towards Pearl (Dear Pearl Manga)

•They both refer to each other by nicknames such as “Pearlie” and “Rina”

•Hisashi Nogami stated that the final Splatfest was not based on Pearl vs. Marina because unlike the Squid Sisters, who had a form of a rivalry between them, Off the Hook is based on Pearl and Marina being together, with their bond being the strongest part of them.

•in Side Order, where Marina frequently uses heart emojis when speaking about Pearl in her dev diaries and compares herself to a "storybook princess" at the top of a tower who "brave Pearl" must rescue.

•after hearing the Squid Sisters sing the Calamari Inkantation. According to witnesses, her only comment was "This changes everything." She escaped to Mount Nantai, even though she didn't know a word of the Inkling language. While there, she met an Inkling named Pearl, who was practicing singing. Growing on each other, Pearl then taught Marina about Inkling culture and customs. After this, Marina came back to Mount Nantai every day for two weeks, hoping to find Pearl again. When she did, she showed Pearl her musical abilities through her demo of Ebb & Flow and Pearl immediately agreed to them starting a band that they decided to call Off the Hook. (Splatoon 2 DLC Octo Expansion chat logs)

•When discussing with Cuttlefish about Marina's technological achievements, Pearl finally discovered her history as a member of the Octarian army, and despite being deeply shocked, she promised to remain friends with her. (Splatoon 2 DLC Octo Expansion chat logs)

This is just the text based evidence. Tumblr has a ten image limit so I plan to attach those in a different post. I am making this for those who try to deny the queer aspect of Pearl and Marina’s relationship. Please feel free to DM or reblog with additional evidence that can be added, and if possible please attach the source. They will be added if I can validate the information as authentic. The rest of the information can be found under the tag #pearlina evidence masterlist

poll idea: did you realize you were queer before or after playing splatoon?

- before

- after

- not queer

Please Reblog For a Bigger Sample Size!

The term "Queer" is being used in this case to refer to someone falling outside of heterosexuality and possibly even being Cisgender.
