let’s see how many transphobics we can weed out
Continuing stuff from my Side Order Rewrite, here's Grayscaled Deep Cut!!!
Thoughts on their individual boss fights below:
I don't have much yet, otherwise I'd make a whole post about it, but here's what I have so far
Frye:
Eel Tornado... 2! But they're all skeletal like the Jelletons. They fly more orderly than in the storymode boss fight
REALLY BIG SLASHING STRIKES from her chainsaw. Like the slashes from Mr. Grizz boss fight you have to dodge between
The eels scream and it's a fucked up version of her boss fight music- like how endless bounder and asynchronous... guy are screaming fucked up versions of off the hook songs
Shiver:
Uses toxic mist to slow you down
Maybe does that cool "ah- ah- ah- ah!" she does when she sings and it creates the killer wail to hunt you down. Toxic mist + killer wail combo oof
of course master mega is here again but skeletal like jelletons
Big Man:
So the bucket is gonna act like a tidal wave. yknow that big bucket at water parks? that. you gotta time your movements to get around it and stuff.
The main challenge isn't really combat it's inking fast enough and mobility.
other than that it's just attacking a bunch of big mans. SIMILAR to his boss fight but still different enough.
Instead of flopping around when you reveal him he sort of stands there... menacingly!!!
arena is smaller than OG fight and buckets pour out on the sides. (think it’s a hexagon but each vertice has an inkfall/bucket that you’re kinda fucked if you bump into and also spawns the lil torpedo fishes. Or smaller shadows.
lmk what y'all think!
Listen, Side Order is fun and great.
But...
what if... it was a little different? 👀
SIDE ORDER REWRITE THOUGHTS DOWN BELOW:
(please reblog!)
OKAY SO the main issue I have with side order is a lack of incentive for Agent 8 and the player to complete the spire with all the palettes. YES. LORE. and I like that a lot BUT fighting Smollusk everytime? Snore. Let's spice it up. We free the owner of the palette by fighting the grayscaled version of them. Each final boss is different, so we as the player have an incentive to see new boss and Agent 8 has to save their souls!!!
So in pic one, Deep Cut (at least Shiver and Frye) still haven't been freed, so they're spaced out. They still give the news, but their dialogue is different and more tired/boring. It'll be like this until the player frees their palettes. (or until they complete the first run? that'd be more forgiving for casual players)
Speaking of, apparently a lot of people got pulled in, right? Let's show them in the order plaza!!! Wouldn't it be creepy to just have grayscaled people wandering around- and the text boxes that usually contain players messages and art is just... blank? (or all replaced with the same message like "Order Will Prevail")
Some other notes:
On your first run, Marina is the final boss. You gotta rescue her!!! First phase it's Marina Agitando, then the second and third phases are Overlorder
Pearl stays a Drone until you complete her palette
As you complete palettes, less and less grayscaled people will be in the square. It makes it more empty, but that's only because you're saving people. But in contrast the lobby becomes more full of instruments and light (like in the actual game)
lmk what you think :)
What do you mean it's doesn't happened in the game?

Wall of photos and such incoming.
After a lot of testing, I've discovered there are 7 different little lights and doodads that are added to Agent 8 via upgrading certain chips, each with a basic 1st tier and and upgraded 2nd tier. The 1st tier of upgrades appear after picking up two of the same chips in that changes pool (ex: 2 Homing Shots chips), with the 2nd tier appearing after picking up five of them (ex: 5 Homing Shot chips). There is no further visual indicators added for maxing chips that go beyond 5, such as Splash Damage or Rush Attack.
Full disclaimer: This is the result of researching a LOT of my own runs, so I can say this is true with about 95% certainty. If I labeled an ability chip in the wrong visual pool, please let me know!
Let's start with the basics - our control group. No Teal upgrades provide any visible changes to Agent 8 (or Pearl-bot for that matter), so I ran an all-teal palette to demonstrate.
First is likely one of the more requested visual changes - the Headset. The 1st tier sports a basic metallic earpiece, with the 2nd adding an antenna and eyepiece that match your primary ink color.
Maxing Splash Damage, Sound Wave Damage, Splash Radius, Special Charge Up, Turf Lucky Chain, Rush Knockback, and Homing Shots all provide the headset!
Next up is Ink Bubbles. The 1st tier shows transparent, slower bubbles flowing in 8's ink tank, with the bubbles being faster and more opaque in the 2nd tier.
Nabbing Poison Ink, Splat Ink Recovery, Ink Saver Sub, Ink Recovery Rate, and Sticky Ink all provide Ink Bubbles.
Following that is the Fins. The 1st tier shows the base shackles being added to 8's boots, with the fins themselves being added for the 2nd tier.
Picking up Run Speed, Swim Speed, Rush Attack, Mobile Ink Recovery, Mobile Special Charge, and Mobile Drone Gauge all provide the Fins.
Now, moving on to the weapon upgrades!
First we have the Muzzle Lights, which appear at the muzzle of most weapons, and the sides of the brush and roller nearest the base. The 1st tier shows a circle and squares circling around the muzzle, with the 2nd tier being more exaggerated, with alternating squares and rectangles forming a hexagon pattern in the center.
These are exclusive to the Ink Damage, Main Damage (Close), and Main Damage (Distant) chips.
Next up is likely the most common visual one can see on their run - the Arrows. The 1st tier shows a circle with three arrows pointing down the weapon, with the 2nd tier adding some blowback markers behind the circle.
These are on a whopping TEN upgrades, being Splatling Barrage, Main Firing Speed, Horizontal Slash Speed, Main Range, Main Piercing, Main Ink Coverage, Rush Ink Coverage, Quick Charge, Shot Spread Reduction, and Ink Saver Main.
Last of the weapon upgrades are the Dots. The 1st tier is 3 large dots and a circle spinning at the bottom of your weapon or around your wrist, with the 2nd tier adding another circle around the dots.
These can be found on the Hindrance Damage, Ink Attack Size, Charge Storage, Moving Ink Speed, Extra Dodge Roll, Brella Cooldown, Knockback, and Explosion Knockback upgrades.
And finally, my favorite little knick-knack, the Shrimp Hook. This little guy appears on your ink tank after picking up 2 matching Luck upgrades (ex: Lucky Bomb Drop, Canned Special Drop, etc), and begins to glow after picking up 5. However, the glowing effect is not visible in the post-game screen. 😔 (I would totally buy one of these if someone made one, btw)
By the way, 7 visual upgrades * 5 chips needed to max each visual is 35 chips, which is just shy of the 36 total chips you can have on one palette, which means, in theory, you could. Have every maxed visual indicator on in one run.
Just a thought. : )

alternatively, YOU are the only thing preventing acht from having to witness pearl and marina making out
Random Splatoon thought but with how obvious Side Order showed that Pearl and Marina are together, it’d be funny if one of the splatfests was about Deep Cut trying to figure out what wedding gift they should get the two.
Each of them have an idea on what’d be the perfect wedding gift, Shiver being generic but practical, Frye being flamboyant but useful, and Big Man being weird but traditional (at least traditional for his clan).
We don’t even know it’s for Pearl and Marina until after the Splatfest, they just say “friends of ours are getting married” and then when the winner is announced it’s revealed who’s wedding it’s for “Alright, it’s decided. We’ll get Pearl and Marina _____, as their wedding gift.”
Then of course a follow up that Pearl is a bit miffed that Deep Cut not only announced it to everyone but let others decide for them what to get as a gift.
I doubt Nintendo would do that considering the anti-gay countries that have Splatoon but hey, they could just give them…idk, Dogs vs Cats vs Birds for a Splatfest.

Random sillies:
the turkey swiss on rye incident
So I’ve seen a few people go over the AU idea of Vaggie being found by Carmilla after she falls, and I thought what if she was rescued by Rosie instead?
Like after the Extermination the little boy she spares tells Rosie and the other cannibals about this Angel that let him run away, and insists on dragging them back there because he heard her screaming from his new hiding spot.
They find Vaggie passed out and back and face soaked in ichor, but instead of eating her Rosie brings her back to Cannibal Town and patches her up as a way of saying thank you for saving that little boy (though the towels and rags used to clean her wounds and her old clothes get heavily fought over because everyone wants to know what ichor tastes like).
Vaggie of course is very disoriented upon waking up and is incredibly uncomfortable with the whole cannibalism thing, but she also really doesn’t want to piss off the people who could rip her apart.

A new mode of production arises out of the newly networked masses.
so real for going off like, your cooking is spectacular. for real thought, you're so right, so often Aro/Ace/AroAce characters aren't respected/treated as what they are by their fandoms is outstandingly high. so yea, please continue to go off.
I’m going to say something that a LARGE, if not disproportionate, amount of the Hazbin fandom would absolutely drag me for. If you don’t like what I have to say here then move on.
Alastor is aro ace. You can argue till you’re blue in the face, it won’t change my mind. His identity is not respected. The entire fandom disregards this and even those who agree go on a tangent that aromanticism and asexuality are spectrums and that aro ace people can still date/have sex.
As an aro ace person in a relationship, respectfully, fuck off. I’ve been out for 10 years and in that time I have seen other queer people argue endlessly about the validity of our identities. To this day it’s still an argument. We’re told we aren’t queer, that we’re robotic, weird, missing something fundamentally human, etc. Aro ace rep in media is rare and as soon as we get some you guys suddenly jump on the bandwagon that we are in fact a spectrum while most of you completely miss the understanding and culture of the community. There are so many complexities and nuances in our identities that many outside don’t understand and can’t understand. In real life, we constantly have to experience “othering” and if we do date/have sex, well then suddenly we don’t apply to be aro ace. But when it’s a character that you all want to mess with, suddenly you “get it”. You don’t.
“Viv said we can do whatever as long as we’re respectful!” You aren’t. If you’re so convinced that we are a spectrum, then why does it seem like you can never believe he’s on the side of being entirely disinterested. Aro ace belittling is as strong as ever and I will speak up on it just as I always have.
Like I said before, dni if you’ve got a problem with this. I already have to deal with flak enough as it is.
Felt a lack of shit posts and we just can't have that
