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

My -social life- extended itself a month after my birthday. I really hadn’t planned that but since I decided to make a small trip to celebrate it, I saw most of my friends after I got back.
Tons of things have happened and I’ll go through some of them, to not forget I’d write this first:
This birthday has been the best one I’ve had in my sad short life and I feel so grateful and fortunate to have the friends I do.
Back in April a friend from Chiapas (whom I actually met here on tumblr) came to a festival in the city, we saw each other and he said to me, go sometime to visit me and I can show you around. So looking for options to not stay here doing what I always do, like being sad, I decided I should get out of the city for a change, also because I’ve been wanting to do that for a while.
The week of my birthday my mom had been very angry and before, for a second, I wasn’t going to buy my plane ticket because maybe money wasn’t going to be enough, thankfully I said fuck it and it was the best choice because spending yet another birthday here would’ve been hella sad. 
Getting to the airport was excruciating, I got there just in time and then the flight got delayed. I smelled of anxious sweat, which smells totally different than normal sweat but when I finally arrived to Tuxtla and smelled the wet soil I felt so much better. Dorian and I catch up on our ride to his place and I just thought how nice is to do that, catching up on a car when friends pick you up. I had the same experience when I travelled to LA back in May and I find it really beautiful. 
First day we went to the beach in Boca del Cielo, he got out of work early so we could make it in time and he brought his best friend along, Vinissa. I had been feeling a bit sad and birthdays for me don’t mean much because if I make them mean something, then they suck. I was at the beach, finally I could feel the hot sand beneath my feet, hear the crashing of waves and just be in the sea, I had missed it for so long. I wanted to feel happy but I couldn’t say it right then, I felt grateful I was still alive to experience that. I swam in the lagoon and got knocked over by a couple of waves, nothing dangerous, I think of it as soul cleansing.
At night I couldn’t sleep, the bed was super uncomfortable and it was so freaking hot. Only thing that helped a bit was that it started raining and a soft fresh breeze passed through the mosquito net, as well as watching the lightning, hearing thunders, the rain and the waves crashing altogether. 
Next day we went back to Tuxtla, to Dorian’s place. Everyone took a bath and then we went for a meal at his mother’s house. She didn’t know what to cook for me since I’m a vegetarian, later Dorian told me that his grandma advised his mom to make zucchini cream. Thought that was lovely. Afterwards, we went to the 5 gazers of el Cañón del Sumidero. Since it was a bit late there was only us, a family and a couple. I loved it, I was happy. I could hear the sound of the wind going through my hair and ears and breathe the clean air. It had rained earlier so it was still a bit cloudy but bright enough to see the green mountains. The mountains, I needed them as well. I’m happy. 
At night, Dorian took us to an ice-cream place and I asked for the flan napolitano with chocolate ice-cream. Oh my, I didn’t know I could mix them!
We slept early, I couldn’t keep my eyes open for much longer and another day of adventures awaited us. We drove to los Lagos de Colón, super close to Guatemala. The ride wasn’t that long and the highway view was absolutely stunning, I love to see the fog in the mountains. We moved from forest to tropical jungle, from cold to heat and it was perfect.
At the lakes the water was so clear, Dorian taught me how to jump into the water, almost nailed it and every time I did it, the top part of my bikini left my body, it was fun. We stayed there for about 3 hours or so and while Vinissa and him ate chicken, I ate some quesadillas that Dorian had prepared in the morning. Then we got some chocobananas and had to head back to Tuxtla. There we had some reaaally delicious pizza and they took me to the airport. I picked the latest flight so I could fully enjoy my trip, my express birthday trip that Dorian was kind enough to organize.
Back in the city I saw my friends almost every evening for a couple of weeks, had a small gathering at my place with my friends from my last job. In all my working life, I’d never made such friends like them, so I really wanted to do something and celebrate with them. Jokingly, I told Mario I’d like a rainbow cake, a gay chocolate rainbow cake, a unicorn cake! He said to me, those don’t exist! And I answered, well, I can dream can’t I?
On the Friday of my party, I kept asking him if he had gotten my cake, at least a small chocolatey one. Him and Panini left after they ate and came back an hour or so later. When I opened the door I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, an actual unicorn cake, my mouth couldn’t close and I’m pretty sure I looked so happy like a child that got its wish come true. I was overwhelmed, I really didn’t think I would get something like that, especially because I was never that serious, but Mario got it for me and I thought, I’m so lucky, I’m so lucky I met him and the rest of the guys.
Everyone came and I was happy. By the time I had to blow the candles I wished for another year of friendship with these amazing people. I write it now because I told Mario and Panini, I had to, after what they did. I hope it becomes true.
Sadness will never go away and sometimes I’ll feel like I don’t have friends because I still don’t know how to ask for help, I’ll hate everything and everyone but in those dark times I get flashes of light, a reminder that I do have incredible people in my life, and that makes me so fucking lucky. 
I’m glad I’m still alive.
