HAPPY WORLD SQUID DAY!!
Mods are asleep post sleeping squids.
Hero mode style icons for my (main) splatgang.
Jade on the right is a new arrival, she's Meera's coworker and pretty much spawned in fully developed and started infodumping at me. A bit sad the icons lack mouths so I can't show off her beak bc I think it's fun. Otherwise a regular inkling beak but the right upper "fang" is broken off.
THE SQUIDSS!! Here's the swim forms of everyone in Sam's team Steamship (and their names)
And also bonus, here's everyone on Hunter's team, aptly called the booyah bros for now (new characters!)
Im not gonna share much about the new guys yet. Soon I will, along with ref sheets for everyone
Oh yeah and this fucking guy. He's not on any comp team nor does anyone want him on one
I think the squits deserve to have eye shine. Shine a flashlight at them and they flash light right back at you.
Also some ideas abt Meera's and Silika's bioluminescence specifically:
Silika has a very strong glow to their spots in the dark, stronger when very emotional but it's very noticable even when they're neutral. They also have smaller freckles that only really show up in darkness. The freckles run in their family, all of their siblings have them too.
Meera on the other hand barely glows. Her rings have a very faint glow to them but it's easy to miss. She does, however, shift color much more with her emotional state. Especially so when she's dreaming. It's a one-girl colour show.
It's Grand and it's Fest! Silika's and Meera's GrandFest fits. They're both on Team Future.
Fun facts: Their eyeshadow, neckwear and rings (that's only visible on Meera's individual image lol) reference the other pair, and they have matching fingertips and tentacle bands. Because they're obnouxiously gay.

8) What hobbies does your OC have? What do they do to unwind?
Silika does Turf Wars and Anarchy Battles the most out of the group. They have no interest in going professional, so it's just a hobby even if they're in there a lot. They also like video games, a bit more on the casual side. Unwinding is usually either spent with hanging with Meera or hanging about online. They like to watch gear reviews.
Meera likes to read. She's most interested in slice of life and romantic novels, but she's not snobby about her tastes and will read anything at least once. She's also a very big fan of the band Off The Hook, so she spends time on online fan forums and such.
Jade collects and takes care of plants. Her house is very full of all kinds, though she usually prefers non-blooming plants. She also attends tattoo/piercing events both for fun and for work, and she does play piercings.
20) If they fight, what's their weapon of choice?
... so here's the thing abt them being Splatoon characters. <:3c
Silika mains Dapple Dualies Noveau. They're pretty alright with them, not a 5-star (yet) but getting there. Along with those, they also occasionally use Splattershots (Nova and Pro) and REEF-LUX 450.
Meera is a roller girl, specifically her main is the Carbon Roller Deco. She prefers to shy away from direct combat, and instead focuses on painting. On the rare occasion she goes into Anarchy Battles, she has her Dualie Squelchers.
Jade uses her Splatana Wiper Deco mostly. Due to her health concerns, she doesn't really feel comfortable lugging around heavy weapons, so the Wiper is lightweight enough for that.
Though, if you want to go for a more "traditional" route of weapons. Silika would use daggers, Meera would prefer something like a spear and Jade would have a light sword like a rapier
26) What flower do you associate your OC with?
Something bold and dramatic would be fitting for Silika. Perhaps Fuchsias.
Meera would have something dainty. Forget-Me-Nots come to mind.
Jade's trademark plant is pothos. Though if you specifically want flowers, Hoya Bella or Pretty Waxflower is a go-to.
Can Brandon or Sam say happy birthday to me? It’s coming really soon! <:D
