#curethefuzzyooze

[notafuzzyzombie]

Greetings, sea life of Chumblr.

I should have come out and spoken about this a long time ago, but I feared what would happen. Now… I believe it’s time for me to open up. I don’t know how it will be received but I think those familiar with me should know.

It’s no secret I’m a sanitized octoling. Many people know me for my research and treatments on the Fuzzy Ooze and how to contain it and maybe one day cure it in the milder cases. Though, I’ve been very intentional at avoiding my past because I knew that once people knew it could ruin my reputation.

I’m done living in a lie.

My life before being sanitized was being a medic in Octo Valley. I heard the Inkantation and once the first people started to leave, it wasn’t long before others disappeared.

Though misfortune caught me. I wandered and eventually ended up back underground in the Deepsea Metro, where I was deemed Applicant Number 2222. You read that correctly, and I wish to give further background on how I earned my… reputation. I got caught up in that talk of a “promised land” and then I was given a unique opportunity due to my skills and knowledge… the ability to help make something greater. I had no clue what he meant by “perfect life” then. I didn’t get much time before I was Sanitized. I lost many memories, but my old skills were kept in tact. I quickly became seen as a useful asset for experimenting on subjects, and making it more efficient to sanitize others. However as someone scientifically inclined… I always wanted more answers. With the ideas I had taken on, combined with a major loss of emotions and empathy, I no longer cared about how much suffering I caused.

Even after the defeat of Commander Tartar, I worked as normal in the metro. One day, my “servant” (an inkling who had gotten trapped down there) had gone missing and when I looked, I was surrounded by people from the surface. I tried to find an octoshot but I was caught and subdued. Next I remembered was the Memverse, where my memories were recovered.

I can’t remember everything, but I have enough pieces of my life to share it.

It’s time for everyone to know

I’m sorry for what sins I’ve committed and torment I’ve inflicted. I’ve kept it hidden for long enough.

Whether or not this changes anything, only time will tell.

Hello. PSA from a top researcher in fuzzy ooze.

Please never try to consume it. We had a case where a splatlandian youth found some and ate it, making it very difficult to stop it. Fortunately treatments have made it to where he should eventually be able to get him back in turf wars.

Why do I even have to say this. Please be reasonable.

PSA: As the rematch of the chocolate splatfest is coming, I want to say that while it is confirmed safe for those inflicted with Fuzzy Ooze to consume chocolate in smaller amounts, be cautious with high amounts of it! Anyone can get a stomach ache from eating too much chocolate, however due to the ways the internal organs can be affected by it, you could have much more severe- and potentially fatal- issues.

This is a rare occurrence, but it is very possible, particularly in those who got more severe bone developments after contamination.

Remember to not feed any chocolate to Judd or Lil Judd! They will get very sick!

Stay safe, and have a wonderful splatfest.

Yeah… working at grizzco isn’t for me that’s for certain. I did one shift and for safety reasons I was out with only sanitized. They were more scared of me than the fish so we wiped out quickly.

Couldn’t tell if they fully recognized me or not.

I don’t talk about my time in the metro for several reasons, however I think soon I’ll probably open up and tell the truth about it.

Never thought I’d participate in big run but I’m a bit worried for cubby and I think there are groups that specifically are for people like me. Though I’d be really hesitant to join a group of sanitized celphaleopods due to… personal reasons.

While my old octarian rank was mainly with taking care of medical needs, particularly injuries, pretty much every octarian gets some fight training. I’m not use to these new weapons types, so I’m going to try and visit a range to get the gist of them. After all, I only learned my old octoshot.

Hello! Nice to meet you. My name is Anura.

Please forgive the odd appearance, I promise I’m alright!

I’m currently working to help contain and potentially cue the plague caused by the fuzzy ooze. It’s rough work, but I’m working on it.

If you believe you or someone you are close to has been contaminated, I’m happy to investigate what can be done. Most cases can be removed or managed if caught early enough.

Take care!
