Summary:

Having been on the internet, the concept of Isekai wasn't new to you. You've read your fair share of fics, memes, and such. You've even read a few based on the Splatoon Manga. But to experience being abruptly uprooted from the life you knew and thrown into Inkadia. It couldn't be that bad right? Only issue was unlike those fanfics you read you didn't wake up as an Inkling.

You became an Octoling.

𖦹 note
I do not own Splatoon or the Splatoon Manga, but the plot and a characters that aren't part of the original narrative are my own original creations.

Author notes

𖦹 The main premise of this fic is that I wanted the Reader to be an Octoling since most Isekai fan-fiction (the three I found), have an Inkling protagonist which is fine and all but it gets a bit repetitive since they all are bound to the same narrative (no hate all the fics people write are good). Having an Octoling reader in an Isekai fic is a concept that I think has so much potential for character dynamics, plot moments, etc yet no one ever explores it so here we are!

Disclaimers

𖦹 I don't have the best time management skills so my uploads may be extremely inconsistent, I apologise in advance for the long waiting periods.

𖦹 I have written a few short oneshots about some characters in the series and in make my own writing for personal projects BUT this will be my first time doing a long term project of this size (at least properly) so I have no idea what I am doing.

𖦹 PLEASE GIVE ME FEEDBACK!!! I don't have anyone to brainstorm ideas with or look over my drafts, so I REALLY APPRECIATE input or ideas for the story, feel free to message me on my tumblr since I am unfamiliar with the ao3 interface as of right now

𖦹 I'm pretty new to posting on AO3 so things like notes, my formatting, etc may be a bit off

𖦹 (Added) I will be including headcanons for the characters and characterising them based on my own interpretations!

Warnings

𖦹 As you hopefully saw in the tags, there will be death, identity crisis, discrimination (mostly centred around species/race but others forms related to sexuality and ableism will appear), and violence (outside of Multiplayer and Story Mode). If you are sensitive to these topics this fanfic might not be for you (I do put warnings at the top of each chapter incase you still want to read, reader discretion is still advised).

𖦹 Let me know if the topics I cover are portrayed in any way that seems harmful or causes misinformation so that I can rewrite it. Some of the themes in this story I will cover will be unfamiliar with me so the way I interpret them may come out wrong.
