Zeydaan's Splatoon Obsession

Published 6/5/2023

Zeydaan having her hair dyed, changing clothes, hair turning to tentacles and shrinking down to turn into an inkling "Yeah, sorry, been playing Splatoon all night, kinda forgot our arrangement!" "I know I've already 100%ed each game, but I thought I'd go once again, also, like my new hair? Thought I'd dye it my usual team colour!" "I see you're interested in the fresh new look! Got this and more at Splatcon, even met some guys who were doing an actual Turf war with functional ink weapons! Was so cool, they even said I could join if I liked sometime." "Oh yeah, you can keep those old clothes, don't really fit now- plus they ain't really that fresh these days. Also just gonna keep teaching myself squidese, that's how we all communicate on the team during our LARP turf wars." "Oh yeah, completely fluent now- gonna head off in a bit for another tuft war- reckon we could go all the way on... wait WHAT D'YA mean you haven't heard of Off the Hook, they're totally fresh!!" "Hey, it's not vandalism, it's a perfectly valid turf war grounds there- you mammals are so silly, can't handle us Squid Kids, hehe."

Zeydaan riding the new Splatoon craze, and finding herself a bigger fan than she thought they would be. Neglecting her duties to playing the game- while buying all sorts of merchandise. Friends would notice her recently and colourfully dyed hair would be getting thicker and shinier- and how her near constant quoting of squidese would go from obsessive to being the default way of speaking.
And as she started to fully embrace inkling culture by doing full on turf wars- her non-inkling friends would have to deal with the fact they had turned into a full blown inkling.
