Random question: Do you think Inklings have an equivalent of Black Friday?
See, Black Friday is kind of dependent on whether or not there's a Thanksgiving equivalent holiday. Like, they've definitely got a Christmas-esque holiday considering FrostyFest, so there would very likely be an incentive to have a day dedicated to holiday shopping for most people.
The thing about Black Friday is that it wasn't decided by companies just encouraging people to start shopping immediately after Thanksgiving, but rather the other way around - people just naturally decided to start their holiday shopping immediately after Thanksgiving, and companies noticed, thus started putting out crazy deals because they knew the massive surge in customers would cover their losses plus the fact that the deals in question would get more people to come and give them money.
Whether or not Thanksgiving exists in Inkling society is a loaded question, though, and I've already put too much thought into the response for whether or not they have Black Friday. It's five in the morning. It's so late that it's early. This is what having a weekday off does to a motherfucker.
i've left a not-really-an-ask here before but, i finally got around to writing something human-in-splatoon related after Humanity's Endling initially inspired me to think about writing such a long time ago, and i wanted to come back and mention it again
I have no idea why it gripped my peanut brain as throughly and alteringly as it did, (though i was very existential at the time having just come off Outer Wilds), but reading it was the first little spark for a love in writing I did not know I had (and a love for Splatoon), and i still think about *that man* and Veronika in that barren apartment to this day <3
(shame about your leg, i got in a relationship and totaled my first car before i came back to writing :( author's curse is fucking real)
Did not mean to put off replying to this for so long, but I just wanna say that I'm really happy to hear that! I still struggle to really know what to say when I'm told my writing has inspired someone, but it hits me in a certain kind of way for sure. Messages like this live rent free in my head, and I thank you for that.
I wish you the best of luck in your own writing endeavors! And rest assured, you will be seeing that man and his young charge again.
Eventually.
One of these days.
I promise.
holy fucking shit!
*Insert obligatory "are you alive" ask*
yea
just more of the same, life obligations and all that. with two good legs and staff problems where i work, i have been blessed with many a working hour, which is great for my income but not so great for other things as i'm sure you could imagine
but these old bones are still clacking, don't you worry!

I like how whenever it's been a while since your last post someone will do the ask equivalent of poking you with a stick to see if you're still alive
honestly a fair reaction considering the whole thing with my leg, Ao3 author curse is no fuckin joke
Still alive?
Still breathing! Just haven't really had a whole lot interesting to say or announce. And also I'm just bad at remembering I have a tumblr. Wish I had more for y'all, but as of now, the most interesting development in my life is that I've healed enough to be working again. So I'm working again. At retail. So you'll forgive me if I wasn't exactly chomping at the bit to let you guys know š
Asks are, of course, always open if anyone has any questions I can (reasonably) answer. But in the meantime, just know that even if I'm quiet, I'm still chipping away when I've got the time and energy for it. In the worst case scenario, I won't leave you all in the dark if the plug gets pulled. You've all been way too patient for that kind of treatment š
Did you see the trailer for the new Splatoon spin-off? If so, what are your thoughts?
guys i have a theory.... a GAME theory......
Jokes aside, glad Deep Cut is finally getting a story expansion. Regrettably I don't have the expendable income to justify a Switch 2 purchase any time soon, so it's unlikely I'll get to play it when it releases. Still, here's hoping they cook with the lore and it's a very sizable single player experience to justify a bigger price because you know they're gonna charge 80 smackaroonies for this
Hey I was wondering, how do you translate the inkling language in your fic? I wasn't able to figure it outš
I put a guide in the ending author's note on chapter 12, but I don't blame you if it got lost in all the text; I yapped so much I hit the character limit š
But to answer your question, it's a shift cipher, aka Caesar cipher. Basically you shift each letter in a sentence down the alphabet, with the key being the number of letters. So a shift of 1 would turn every A into a B, every B into a C, and so on. There's plenty of websites that do it for you, and this is the one I used in the process of editing. Just make sure you set it to decode rather than encode, then you can just slap the scrambled text into the box on the left and change the shift number until what you get is legible.
The shift number changes depending on who's speaking to reflect different accents/dialects, so look out for that. Have fun!

An announcement! A good one, this time!
No, Act 2 isn't done yet.
And trust me, I'm as tired of saying that as I imagine some of you are reading it. But, this is something else that's been overdue for quite some time, and it's finally coming to a head thanks to the valiant efforts of a talented collaborator and friend...
Illustrations for Humanity's Endling - Act I: Dust in the Wind are now LIVE!
Go check them out, as well as FalkenJr's other work!

Just wanted to let you know I LOVE your fic Humanity's Ending. Its one of my favorite splatoon fan media rn and Im patiently and happily waiting for the other parts. Also I hope your recovery has been going wellš§”
Glad to hear you enjoyed! It still has a pulse, I swear! š
As for how the recovery is going - see the other ask I just replied to in a very timely manner for an update on that.
Act 2 is still slowly creeping ever closer, but by god is it creeping.
Creeping, indeed.

How's the healing going on your knee?
What a nice question for me to answer in a timely manner!
ā¦definitely! No unreasonable delay whatsoever!
Jokes aside, it has been going well. Quite a lot of my focus has been on PT as I basically have been forced to relearn how to walk, and even this far in, strength in the leg is a bit lacking - as such, that's been the main focus. But I can walk at a good pace without any sort of aid (crutches, leg/knee brace, etc), stand up and sit down without struggle, balance on one leg, go up stairs... practically speaking, at this point, it's going down stairs that I struggle with the most. The bad leg gives out basically immediately as soon as I start to lower myself on it, which leads to me awkwardly stomping every other step I go down.
So, overall, still not quite 100%, but I'm good enough to go back to work (for better and for worse!), which is likely to happen around mid to late May, with me still getting PT in here and there. The worst of it is far behind me for sure.

Hey y'all. So remember that whole thing about my knee?
The doctors did their thing and I am now recovering from surgery!
no face reveal sorry, best i can do is dr pepper dog
My entire leg is wrapped up in a huge cast I'm not allowed to remove for any reason until they give the go ahead, and on top of that I'm on some strong painkillers that can leave me feeling pretty loopy. But for the time being, my main priority is resting as much as I can.
I'm trying to avoid writing while the painkillers keep me buzzed, and for now I'm taking them pretty regularly, so the writing workflow has briefly paused, but once I can go longer periods without them (because believe you me I am sore right now), I'll be right back on that grind.
So, yeah. Moral of the story - don't tackle shoplifters in parking lots. Just buy a taser. Or pepper spray. Or a gun.
i haven't looked here in a long time but i wanted to let you know that "Humanity's Endling" is the initial reason I got so heavily into Splatoon (fucked up enough to look at fanfictions of a game if i'm considering playing it) and it completely gripped me and it's also one of the things that's inspired me to write as a whole, even if it took so long since them to actually get around to doing it myself it's probably one of my favorite settings, themes, and niches you could possibly explore with something like Splatoon (there is literally infinite ways you can explore it and go about it, even if they all start the same way) and H.E. has been the absolute best (and first!) in the "human in splatoon" tag for me, I loved it so much and i'm excited for an act 2! i've wanted to write something in that genre myself for so long because of it, and i've begun to actually ideate and try to write and explore things i'm fascinated with, even if i've started with something other than splatoon I kind of have you and your fic to thank for being the first domino in getting me to write as a creative expression as a whole, so yeah :3 thank you
aw hell naw, eight with the gat
I'm both touched and honored to hear that I could be that inspiration for you! And also entertained by the idea that this project was someone's first dive into Splatoon. Funnily enough, I've always wondered about that, since Kaleb himself is learning as he goes, and with the story locked to his POV, it's theoretically possible to have it as a decently informative introduction to the world - barring the Shit I Completely Made Upā¢, of course. Speaking of, there'll be plenty more of that, believe you me!
Regardless of what it is you're writing for, keep at it. Keep writing and digging about what's interesting to you, or funny to you, or sad to you - if it's important to you, then it's a story worth telling.
