Isabella turning into an Inkling idol "Stage 1. Unaware of infection, Hair altering as saturated in ink. Music taste changed, allows for continued transformation" "This music's so good, I totally wanna try making stuff like this myself one day. After my next dye job, of course." "Stage 2, 30% inkling DNA, Hair thickening into tentacles, More use of Inkling Slang, Loss of Fur or Non-inkling-specific features, shrinking and changing of general anatomy" "Yeesh, 'nother shirt grown weirdly. Time I got a new fresh fit anyway, would go well with my Ink." "Stage 3. 70% inkling DNA. Tentacles fully developed. Name defaulted to inkling one, language slips into squidese often, New skills and hobbies developing, clothing style altered, will identify as Inkling offhanded." "Oh yeah, this track looks so fresh. An- and the squid sisters wanna collab! I'm the happiest squid in all of Inkopolis!" "Stage 4: 100% Inkling DNA, Defaults entirely to squidese, Previous identity overtaken, New inkling name permanent, Producing normal levels of Ink, New skills fully developed." "Ya weni marei mirekyarahire Juri yu mirekerasonKire hyari yoriherahe nyurahera Nunnyura unera yurawera fimera

Showing the main stages of a worldwide Inkling transformation pandemic with Isabella's gradual change into an Inkling idol.
