Daily Cephalopod #88
After a long hiatus dealing with some serious writers block (along with some major life changes), Chapter 15 is here!

In this chapter Lena and Miranda grill the leak for info, while Ethan takes matters into his own hands. Meanwhile, Ashley and Elliot take the next step in their plan to rob Benny.
I love the bathroom wallpaper at the hotel I’m staying in for Dreamforce!
If i was going to do chapter titles this first one would be "Nora's Social Anxiety"
What do you see as your next act? It’s been a crazy ride since the show. I have a big role in “Grey’s Anatomy” coming up. I’m shooting this fantastic movie in China. I’m doing concerts all over the world. I just stared a business called Sherpapa because I’m going to be a new dad.
Paper Nautilus? Those boys are lovely and I feel like they're SO underrated
Daily Cephalopod #6
These are Argonauts! (Also nicknamed The Paper Nautilus)
To spread some Argonaut love, here's some cool facts!
The females grow much larger than males (about 8 times larger) and they produce a thin eggcase, or their "shell"
Females can mate and reproduce multiple times in their life, while the males only mate once and die shortly after
The males mate by removing their hectocotyl arm, which is then stored in the females eggcase!
The hectocotylus is the modified tentacle on male cepholpods that is used for mating and it was first discovered on an argonaut! (although it was originally misidentified as a parasitic worm attached to the mantle of the female it was discovered on)
The nickname 'Paper Nautilus' is quite misleading, because Argonauts are actually octopuses!
Argonauts have often been observed floating with/on salps, jellyfish, plant debris, driftwood, and even other argonauts at all stages of life!
Argonauts do not reside near the sea floor, they tend to drift closer to the surface and are the only known pelagic octopus!
Like many other octopuses, they have ink, they can change color, and they have venom!

first chapter is up on ao3! might edit more if I decide something needs to be changed but am happy with it at the moment. The next chapter introduces a lot more characters and will be longer, so will take a while to post.
