memory of the inkantation +1
FAILED
you make eye contact with them scanning for any kind of unpleasant feelings they are having. there are none. they are genuinely happy to be helping you adjust to life on the surface.
you - i want to cook you for breakfast
memory of the domes - nothing about them has visibly changed yet they seem stiffer, angry almost.
memory of the inkantation - they arent mad youre just exclusively looking at their tentacles, those dont move their a squid. youll have to make eye contact to know how their feeling.
you look to their widened eyes. shock? suprise? you cant quite tell. their still too new to you. is it too early to be coming forth with such intense expressions of feelings?
newcomer to the world - you messed up in some way. their going to leave you the same way all your memories did. you need to apologize NOW. do it and say youll never bring this up ever again.
agent 3 wrings their hands a bit awkwardly before glancing away and back. they seem to be gearing up to tell you something that they know you wont take easily.
agent 3 - um. eight? i think the thing you were trying to say is cook breakfast for me? unless theres something im not understanding here.
newcomer to the world - of course. you idiot. how could you think an octarian expression would ever be understood by someone whos not from there?
memory of the inkantation - its okay they may not have understood but they chalked it up to the confusion in the language you sometimes get. they even gave you an out just nod and itll be fine.
im genuinely loosing my shit this is hilarious oh my fucking god. saying an octarian saying in inkling and then staring at their tentacles is fuckign incredible and this is written so well. "i want to cook you for breakfast" incredible incredible incredible
