#GET OVER SPONGBOB

[cy-cyborg]

Earlier today I saw a video from Council of geeks on Youtube talking about how frequently and potentially overused swearing is in adult animation. It’s a great video, but I wanted to add my 2c to the conversation real quick.

I grew up in rural Australia in an area that is primarily inhabited by bogans, and if there’s one thing rural bogans know, it’s casual swearing. Australia as a whole uses the word “cunt” in almost the same way we say “mate” - in some circles “cunt” is seen as the friendlier option, and bogans take that even further. constant, frequent swearing was such a normalised part of speech when I was a kid that it was normal for our teachers in high school (which starts in years 6 or 7 depending on the state, and goes all the way to year 12) to swear at us. Not aggressively mind you, they just used the words casually, and the kids would swear at them back. It wasn’t usually an issue, even when they were trying to be an asshole.

Despite this, even I find a lot of adult animation’s use of swear words a bit jarring at times, and I think Council of Geeks put the feeling i’d had about it into words very well: it’s the way a lot of these shows draw attention to it, even when it’s supposedly normalised.

The people back home can hardly get through a sentence without swearing at least once. at least. I use the word “fuck’n…” the same way other people use “umm…” and I know someone who named their dogs “sick cunt” (or “cunty” for short) and my own dad named one of my childhood dogs “fugly” (short for fucking ugly - that was his legal name my dad put on his adoption paperwork from the shelter). when these words are used so often, they do loose their impact, and you can tell they have by the way we all use them around there. If you’re going to use that same kind of frequent “bad” language in your work, you need to acknowledge it too. that’s where a lot of shows who try to emulate this way of speaking fall over.

As funny as it is to say, Spongbob was right when it called the obvious stand-ins for swear words “sentence enhancers” - that is usually the goal of words like “fuck” and “shit” when not used in the context of their literal definitions: to put emphasis on what’s being said. You could say “This traffic is SO slow!” or you could say “Fuck! This traffic is SO fucking slow!”. You could say “are you kidding me?” or you could say “Are you shitting me?” - in both these cases, the addition of the swear words emphasises the rest of the sentence and the emotion behind it.

But when you are swearing every other word, they stop working that way. “this traffic is so fucking slow” is a lot less impactful when that’s the 5th time you’ve said some variation of “fucking” that conversation. So when people back home swear, it’s just a filler word. there is no emphasis, there’s not heightened emotion, nothing. It’s a normal, standard part of speech that is so common and normalised, it sounds weird to people back home when you don’t use it. I’d go so far as to say it get’s the same kind of reaction from people back home as if you were speaking with flat affect (I’m saying this as an autistic person who took a while to warm up to swearing like that, with autistic friends who spoke with very little tone or expression).

phrases like “ah get fucked cunt” are an honestly very casual and friendly phrase (no, I’m not exaggerating) said the same tone you might use to say “nah I don’t feel like [whatever the topic of conversation was]”. honestly I tried to give some more examples, but it’s extremely difficult to demonstrate over text. Australia has a pretty big film and TV industry though, so if you want some examples of what I mean, watch some Aussie TV (look for anything with an MA or R rating, anything under that and they will likely limit the use of “foul language”) especially anything set in small towns or the bush or find rural aussie creators online.

My point is, If you want to have swearing and cursing as a part of your regular vocabulary in your setting, you need to treat it like it’s actually normalised like any other word. If you wouldn’t put emphasis on words like “house” or “dog” or “car” then don’t put that emphasis on words like “fuck” and “shit” lol.

What do you think John W. meant when he described Z was like Spongbob after meeting/ getting to know her. I grew up watching the cartoon but in the context of how Z and Tom talked about it during the press run, I think it went over my head because I don't get it.

iirc Jon Watts said that he was expecting SpongeBob (enthusiastic, optimistic, bubbly) because Zendaya was a Disney kid who had to don that kind of persona all the time. But then when he met her he was able to see her a complex person who could play the more jaded, subdued version of MJ that he envisioned.

I don’t understand why Jon Watts didn’t recognize that Zendaya had been playing a character, “Disney kid.” I kind of think the whole thing is a little bullshitty because I also suspect they had their eyes on Zendaya for the role (or one of the SM roles) before she even showed up to audition.

Part three of my spongbob text

1

2

And normally that’s a good set up for an episode where something happens, patrick tries to help in a way that makes it work but spongbob reluctantly agrees with him, and then they learn not to blindly follow it, that’s what happens in the fishing hook ep, the doctor suds sickness one, and the one where spongebob cheats on the boating test. Tbh I’ve been rewatching a lot of SpongeBob, but like, there’s a reason this show is so good, I mean there’s a whole episode about SpongeBob procrastinating on an essay if that’s not the best plot line idk what is I don’t know how this show is so good, the jokes are always top notch the characters are always interesting, like Mr krabs, it’s hard to put them in good or bad, sure he can be greedy, but when spongbob gets sick he sends him home, he warns him about the hooks, and teaches him about not swearing The characters can be so morally grey, with not being good or bad, but still in a way that completely makes sense for the character, and the writers have to understand the characters so well to be able to write such good jokes, they are perfectly timed and set up, like in pizza delivery ‘it’s not a bolder, it’s a rock! The pioneer used to ride these baby’s for miles!’ When the whole time spongebobs been talking about the pioneers, also the voice lines for this part had so much emotion that like, on its own it wouldn’t even be that funny, just the fact that it’s spongbob, and the delivery sells it so great. And the fact that at the very end of the episode the house they were delivering too was only like a foot away from the krusty krab is such a good gag. Me and my family all described things as ‘Winnie hut jrs’ all the time or the ‘it was his hat mr krabs he was number one!’ It’s all just perfectly memorable Plus like, the new animation is good! It is! But I will never get over the more desaturated hand drawn animation of the first season it’s just so nice to look at The sort of darker subject matter in the old episodes always make it so much fun I mean squidward thinks spongebobes going to die in dying for pi And the health inspector one, where SpongeBob and mr krabs think they killed the health inspector, and try to bury his body, like c’mon can you imagine any other kid show that’d do that? I could only think of like investor zim, but that show is definitely more made to be edgy and scarier (and it’s such a good show for it) like I’m sure a lot of other shows could do that, but to both do that and pull it off well it’s impressive

TW: Later on, there is gonna be depictions of body horror and jumpscares, so if you uncomfy, you can scroll by

(this is all I can remember)

I think I watched too many FNAF fan game reviews because I dreamt about a Youtuber talking about a made up FNAF fan game that had it’s name never brought up. 

Anyway, there was this one game mechanic where an animatronic would be around you standing there and if you look at its eyes, it charges at you with blinding speeds, killing you.

Then it cuts to me walking down my school’s 500 hall corridor. Everyone was gone other than the rustling of trees. Some reason I felt nervous when this happened, like I felt the tightening of chest.

Then, for some odd reason, it cuts to a first person spongebob video. Spongebob for some reason, said he had to go to the hospital to see Squidward (or something between those lines) and there was this fish that was standing at the end of the start of the street, on Squid’s side.

The fish was possibly an elder; since it had wrinkles, a dull blue dress, a floaty tube around her waist, poofy purple hair, dull and dark olive skin and light dull olive fins and lips, big, wide, mahogany eyes, and a smile that was always on her.

(kinda like this)

and you know the kicker, if you look at her eyes and in her line of sight, she charges at you.

So after one encounter of the fish, Spongbob tries to take a different path. Going into the street. The streets were vacant and split up into paths, like a plus sign path. Spongbob was panicking, because he didn’t want to get charged at again. Then there was this voice that said, “It’s ravenous” or “Vicious, Dangerous, MENACING!”

The video ends and zooms out to be a mobile Youtube page on a tablet. A finger, presumably mine’s taps on another video. I don’t remember what the video was, but I do know that it’s about something charging at the player or creepy imagery. I don’t know.

Now this is where the body horror stuff starts, so splitting it if you’re squeamish to this.

After all that, the finger tapped on another video.

It’s about some guy recording himself playing Luigi’s Mansion 3, without commentary, catching ghosts and slamming them to the ground.

After defeating the ghouls, a Gem Goob appears. However it doesn’t look like a normal variant or behaves like it either. 

Instead, it’s bright red with eyes being light red, kind of like a speed variant. The behavior is like a Diffusing Goob, but instead of attacking now it floats around the stage before attacking and its belly swells before summoning

(like this)

(yes I did this in traditional)

The player then tries to stun it, only to be met with another first person view for Weegee. It had the same type of 360 scope from FNAF3 and when he looked from left to right 2 times. When looking around the second time, Luigi stops to the right.

It’s the ghost from before, but it’s drastically different.

Its skin instead of crystal like is now rubbery, there's bloodshot-eyes all over its body with blood leaking from them. The normal eyes, not from its body, now sported pupils and a black, hollow smile. It now looks far from what a Goob is like.

There was static noises in the background and the corners of the screen were black.

Before it possibly lunged a the green plumber, I woke up and went here to type it out before it’s forgotten.

Squidward:

Excerpt: The Squidward creepypasta is a scary story about the animated TV show Spongbob Squarepants. It is mainly known under the titles “Squidward’s Suicide”, “Squidward’s Death”, “Squidward Dies” or “Suicidal Squidward”.

As you may be aware, Spongebob Squarepants is a popular animated TV series that is broadcast on Nickelodeon. It began airing in 1999 and featured cartoon characters such as Spongebob and his friend with tentacles, Squidward. It is one of Nickelodeon’s highest-rated shows and is currently the longest-running series on the channel.

Despite being one of the best-loved cartoons on TV, few people are aware of a very disturbing incident that occurred in Nickelodeon’s animation studios, during the production of the series a few years ago.

In 2005, Nickelodeon’s animation studios had recently completed production on the SpongeBob movie and the entire staff was somewhat sapped of creativity so it took them longer to begin work on the new season of TV episodes. The delay lasted much longer than it should have due to a very upsetting problem with the first episode of Season 4.

The lead animators and sound editors were in the editing room to review the final cut of S04E01. They received a copy of the episode and gathered around the screen to watch. The title of the episode was supposed to be “Fear of a Krabby Patty”, but when the title card came up on the screen, it read, “Squidward’s Suicide”. Everyone in the room was more than a little confused.

The Spongebob Squarepants theme tune played as usual and the episode began with Squidward practicing on his clarinet, hitting a few sour notes. SpongeBob was laughing and Squidward stopped playing to yell at him to keep it down as he had a concert that night and needed to practice. SpongeBob said OK and went with Patrick to see Sandy. The bubbles splash screen came up, followed by the end of Squidward’s concert.

It was at this point that the episode began to get very strange. As Squidward’s concert ended, there was discontented murmuring in the crowd and they begin to boo him loudly and maliciously. Squidward looked visibly afraid. Spongebob was standing in front of the crowd and he, too, was booing. Even more odd was the fact that all of the characters had hyper-realistic eyes. They were very detailed and their pupils were glowing red.

The next scene showed Squidward sitting on the edge of his bed, looking very depressed and forlorn. Behind him, in his porthole window, a dreary night sky could be seen. The unsettling part was that there was absolutely no sound. Squidward just sat there in silence for about 30 seconds, then he started to sob softly. Then, he put his tentacle-hands over his eyes and cried quietly for a full minute. Gradually, the sound grew louder and a slight breeze could be heard in the background.

The camera slowly zoomed in on Squidward’s face and his sobbing grew louder and louder, full of hurt and anger. The sound of the wind became more severe, as if a storm was brewing. Very faintly, in the background, something that sounded like hollow laughter could be heard. It came at odd intervals and never lasted more than a second. After 30 seconds of this, the screen blurred and twitched violently and something flashed over the screen, as if a single frame had been replaced.

The lead animation editor paused the video and rewound it, frame by frame. Suddenly, something horrible flashed up on the screen. It was a still photo of a young boy. His face was mangled and bloody and one of his eyeballs was dangling out of its socket. His stomach had been sliced open and his intestines lay in a pile beside him.

The editors gathered around the screen couldn’t believe what they were seeing. They pressed play and continued to watch the video, hoping that it was all just some sick joke being played on them by the animators. On the screen, Squidward was still sobbing, but the sound was louder than before. There seemed to be blood coming from his eyes and running down his cheeks. The blood did not seem to be animated. It looked all too real. The wind sounded like a raging storm. The deep, unsettling laughter became more and more frequent.

Suddenly, the screen twitched again. One of the editors paused the video and rewound it. Another single frame photo flashed up on the screen. This time, it was a little girl. She was lying face-down in a pool of blood. Her left eyeball was hanging by a thread and her entrails were piled on top of her. There were deep cuts all over her back. One of the interns in the room said he felt sick and rushed out into the corridor.

The editor clicked a button and the episode resumed playing. Squidward was silent again and there was no sound at all. He put his tentacles down and his eyes were now done in hyper-realistic and detailed. They were bleeding, bloodshot and pulsating. He just stared at the camera, as if he was watching the viewer. Everyone in the room shifted uncomfortably. A few seconds later, he started sobbing again, but this time he didn’t cover his eyes. The sound was loud and piercing and screams rang out in the background. Bloody tears were dripping down his face as the wind began blowing again and the deep-voiced laughter returned.

Another still photo flashed up on the screen and the editor paused the video again. This time, the photo was of a different young boy. His right eyeball was hanging out of its socket and a large hand was reaching into his open stomach and pulling out his intestines. Everyone in the room gasped at this and one of the sound editors vomitted on the floor. Everybody was shaking and frightened. Someone rushed out to fetch a mop.

The editor stopped the video and said that he would call the producer and show him the horrifying photos contained in the video. Fifteen minutes later, the producer burst into the room and demanded to know why he had been called down to the studio. The editor didn’t answer him. He just pressed play and the episode continued on the screen.

Squidward was just staring at the camera, his face in close-up. The soundtrack became silent and a deep voice was heard whispering “Do it.” The camera pulled back, revealing that Squidward was holding a shotgun in his tentacle-hands. He suddenly raised the shotgun, placed the barrel in his mouth and pulled the trigger.

There was a huge explosion and realistic blood and brain matter splattered against the wall behind him. His head disintegrated and his body fell sideways and collapsed on the bed. The last five excrutiating seconds of the episode show his body on the bed, on his side, one eye dangling on what’s left of his head above the floor, staring blankly at it. Then the episode cut to black.

The producer was furious and demanded to know what the heck was going on. Most people left the room, feeling sick to their stomachs. Just a handful of people remained in the editing room, attempting to figure out what exactly had gone wrong with the episode.

The only explanation they could come up with was that, somewhere along the line in the production process, the video footage had been edited by someone. The logs were consulted and everyone who had worked on the video was accounted for. The editors attempted to analyse the video file, but there was no timestamp. All of the video equipment involved in the production line was examined for viruses, malware and other malicious files, but everything checked out fine.

Due to the nature of the photos, the footage was handed over to the police, but nothing came of it. None of the children in the photos was ever identified and the video files yielded no clues or physical evidence. To this day, nobody at Nickelodeon’s animation studios can explain what happened.

here is to everyone who love creepypastas like squidward . Exe

most the jobs my school offers are work studies and the sort, wherein you must be this tall taking this many course credits in order to be applicable for the occupation.

You kids do know I am indebted to this family, I have to supply work and shit to them so I have board and food. Some times.

But I can’t take courses this year because I gave out the last of my resources to my family to buy a lawyer.

I have some kind of weird paradox going on in my neck of the woods. Lemme get back to you with an update when someone tries to kill me. That’s in my eventual future

#college #paradox #school #higher education #resources #whenever I say (RESOURCES) i always imagine spongbob and his (IMAGINATION) skit #i loved the look the girl gave me when she was reviewing my resume and I was getting blood all over the place #she goes - (why are you bleeding?) #and I say - (oh Yknow) as only I do - I wasn't being dismissive I just kind of forget this is a legit concern for people #im expecting someone to just lose their damn shit on the negative vibes in my general area #people dont get it how it feels to be so hated and despised - Im doing the best i can but I have limited resources and the best expectations

[yandere-mha-blog]

Altightly I'll stop with the spongbob memes (for now) here is a little insight on the yandere ex au

Part one

Basically dabi and y/n got together in highschool,dabi was in the upper year class graduated early,they remained together but it wasn't healthy at all, aka dani being a shitass of a boyfriend,y/n parents highly disapprove since when they see there daughter bring home a guy with piercing and tattoos and what look like burnmarks they are like nope.

Y/n been wearing thoose rose colored glasses and dosnt see the issue and continued to stay with him, then learn she got accepted to university.

Dabi scared that if y/n gets a higher education they wont need him anymore since he wants the two fo them to be miserable together (romantic I know 🙄), says that if she decides to go to university he will breck up.

Y/n decides that the relationship must be over now and is miserable blocks him on everything to try and forget about him, and gose to university and her parents are thrilled they broke up and help there daughter pack up and leave.

Dabi meanwhile was expecting y/n to call him saying she wasn't going to go and beg for him back, and that doesn't work,and since her never bothered to learn where she was going.

In her first class hawks runs in late and sits by her and like the extrovert he portrays adopts the introverted y/n, and post a photo of the two of them and now dabi knows where she is and is wondering who the hell is that.

By which I mean, Ethan could literally be the famous "oh right he was a wrestler" video from bts of the spongbob musical (not something I made up youtube(.)com/watch?v=4coSXERCzWw ) I know why he didn't stay a wrestler in canon, but pls enjoy the mental image I have of Ethan staying on the team and some random werewolf trying to knock him over because he looks soft and sweet and ending up getting pile driven into the dirt

okay now that’s something i could get behind! him getting to stay on the team and actually train and build muscle (him going “it’s totally to help fight monsters” when benny gives him a Look about it) but him still looking like a marshmallow only to completely out match like a werewolf is both hilarious and amazing 

#and something i could maybe write a fic about mhmm #i saw this write before i was going start writing too so perfect timing #also thank you for that amazing mental image #asks #mbav #ethan morgan

30 Days of Autism Acceptance!

April 26th: Talk about special interests. Do you have special interests? If not do you wish you did? What do your special interests mean to you? What are your current special interests? What are your past special interests? Yay!!! It’s finally time to talk more about SpIns! I have amassed a few special interests over the years, but it’s hard for me to tell if it is one, unfortunately. Mainly that’s the case because I don’t talk to a lot of people in my day to day life so I go on believing that I like X a “normal amount” until I prove myself wrong by talking about X with someone. This especially happens when I’m mid infodump and I think to myself “holy shit how long have I been talking? I’m only just getting started too! Woah, I didn’t know I was this intrigued by X” My SpIns mean a lot to me, but this can come at a price, however. If someone doesn’t like/criticizes my SpIn, it feels like they don’t like me personally, and that can really make me upset. They’re often really comforting for me, too. My current special interests include: Minecraft, art, retro/vintage fashion, cats, reading in general, steven universe, webcomics, and angels. Some of my past special interests include: MLP:FiM, ballet, spongbob, mystery case files games, and fablehaven. Again, if you ever want me to talk more about these, shoot me a message/ask and I gladly will! Just keep in mind I’ll probably infodump a fair bit so be prepared for that lol xD.

It's a bit of an inaccuracy on that whole account. Paul Tibbett took over the show during season 4-8 since Hillenberg left after the first 3 seasons & 1st movie. Tibbett had some hands on Spongebob before but what the writing staff he had didn't quite understand the styling of SB's comedy which lead us to the seasonal rot. Hillenberg came back to the show during the 2nd movie & stayed on season 9 onward til his death when The show by that point started to get better.

Ah ha.

I now know a great deal more about the behind the scenes writing of the Spongbob show than I had expected to.

thanks!

Part 2 of my SpongeBob text

Part 1

part 3

I think it has both good messages for kids and adults too because SpongeBob, despite not having an age to my knowledge is definitely not a young kid, he goes to driving school and has for years, he has a job, he once talked to pearl about when he went To high school, which means he at least is over 18. So watching spongbob, an adult find joy in a box, or a piece of paper. Or still enjoying shows, can he fun, saying to adults ‘hey it’s okay to be a kid’ people a lot of the time say like ‘when I grow the more I relate to squidward’ and like I can see that, but I think the shows trying to say more like, hey even if your an adult maybe see if you can be more like SpongeBob. Squidward and SpongeBob work the same job, they live right next to eachother, and I think squidwards house is even bigger then spongbobs (maybe?) what makes them different is there outlook. Spongbob loves his job, and I think that’s a good message, even though it’s just working at a fast food place, and there is definitely eps that show how much it can suck (like with bubble bass, Or honestly most customers that come there aren’t that nice) spongbob still looks on the bright side of it all and achieves his dreams, even if they are small ones. He finds joy in small things, while squidward on the other hand isn’t happy at all, he needs to be popular, have everything, he not only looks at the things spongbob looks at with no joy in the small things, but he actively judges spongbob for finding joy in it, thinking he’s better, and just complaining more and more, and that complaining makes him more sad. Of course in real life it’s always more nuanced, but I think I’m classic spongbob it still shows those nuances. Like spongebob still is wrong a lot of the time, he takes time to learn and grow and that’s why he’s good, and he still gets sad and angry, and a lot of the time those aren’t shown in a negative light either, sort of saying like yeah, if something bad happens, if someone’s not treating you right, you have every right to be upset at them, while squidward for the most part of the old show is just mad at spongebob for being happy in small things. But even though squidward isn’t the best he and SpongeBob do get a lot of interesting episodes that Further expand their dynamic in interesting ways, like in the krusty krabs pizza, he’s annoyed the whole time that spongbob is so dedicated to getting the pizza to the costumer, but when they did everything and more, and spongbob went out of his way and the costumer yelled at him and told him he had bad service, squidward was the one able to stand their ground and give the customer what for. Showing that being a bit like him can be for the best, he’s more able to stand up for himself and others then spongebob is. Or in band geeks, it’s an episode where right when you think everything is going to go wrong for squidward, which in this episode would kinda suck because you see how happy this makes him, the whole town comes together to make the performance the best and give squidward a good name and a good experience in band. Having this mix of characters is so interesting, because even though it’s easy to look at it and think about it simply it really matters what happens based on what they both do, spongebob will always have good intentions, but either it has a good or bad effect on others is dependent on the other’s character, and not just squidward, there was a criminal were spongbob was accidentally stopping him and hurting and being annoying, and That episode is so funny because spongbob has the best of meaning and the other guy wants to kill spongbob Spongbob and Patrick’s dynamic too in the classic is so good because patrick is a bit full of himself while not knowing anything, and SpongeBob is a bit gullible, which makes for fun episodes like the one where they sink, patrick is more loud and less people pleasing, while spongebob is more people pleasing and although he can be loud he can also be more nervous.

(screeching into the void) its mp100 hcs time baby!!!!!

when Sho learns that Ritsu has never owned a pair of crocs he goes croc shopping immediately 

Sho has a pair of light teal crocs

he buys Ritsu a pair of hot pink crocs

they go on amazon and order a fuckton of croc accessories

Sho claims the spongbob one

Ritsu doesnt really care which ones he gets so Sho does all the decorating 

until Ritsu sees the dory one 

he claims the dory one immediately 

Reigen also owns a pair of crocs but only cause Serizawa kept telling him how comfortable his pair is

theyre tie die coloured 

he only wears them when he goes somewhere with water though

most of the time he wears his Heely’s everywhere 

Teru has a pair of purple crocs

Mob has black ones

Teru bought Mob his because Mob would never get them on his own

Tome has several pairs of crocs for different occasions

she has custom ordered croc charms for her different crocs

this is essentially just pining gays buying their crushes Crocs™ huh

oh well

Teru and Mob like to try different ice cream flavours together

it starts during their first summer as friends when they start going out for ice cream when they hang out

and now its just their thing to try new ice creams together

Teru’s favourite flavour hes ever had is tiramisu ice cream

Mob likes strawberry the best

once they tried a hibiscus flavoured ice cream and both loved it

then the place thats sold switched it out for a new flavour 

que internal crying

when RItsu and Sho start to hang out Ritsu quickly learns that Sho missed out on a lot of his childhood

and in general he never learned how to do much other than control his powers

so Ritsu and Sho spend a lot of time doing things Sho missed out on

like going to amusement parks and playing in the crappy inflatable pool that the Kageyama’s never use anymore

Ritsu also starts teaching Sho how to cook more then instant meals

there are a lot of accidents in the kitchen

Ritsu’s mum doesnt mind when Sho is over but she bans them from the kitchen at her house

so now they use Teruki’s kitchen

Sho however has extensive knowledge of the internet and early 2000′s tv shows 

because when your dads plotting to destroy the world and your baby sitter is a psychic who doesnt want care for a child TV becomes your best friend

when he learns that Ritsu has never seen Avatar the Last Airbender he doesnt even say anything

he just sits there quietly plotting how hes gonna make Ritsu watch the whole thing

turns out he didnt need to think much on it

Ritsu watches the first episode and gets hooked

he loves Appa 

“why does uncle Iroh remind me of Reigen?”

Sho fucking looses it

#mp100 #mob psycho 100 #mels hcs #mp100 hcs #just hear me out guys: #crocs #thanks for coming to my ted talk #hanazawa teruki #terumob #ritsho #ritshou #shoritsu #sho suzuki #@ the anon who sent the crocs ask #hope u like mp100

Mornings in bikini bottom were hard for Spongebob, which seemed crazy to everyone who initially caught on to his strange behavior. Most of the residents simply thought it was in his nature to sometimes be a bit over the top. Which was true for the most part, despite feeling as if something was off with him. For the most part, no one had questioned it. The only people that seemed slightly disturbed by it were his friends, the only problem being that they didn’t know what to do.

He didn’t blame them, of course no one knew what was wrong with him. So he kept to himself, quiet and reserved, only talking when it was found necessary.

Over the next few months, at this point everyone was concerned for the sponge’s health. He didn’t talk, he didn’t jellyfish, no laughter, no nothing.

It made the people of bikini bottom worry so much that they took it to his boss. Their complaints were restless. It was always the same recurring questions about how Spongebob was, or if he’s still working. To a point where Mr. Krabs took it upon himself to confront Mr. squidward about it.

“Why me? Why not sandy? or even that moron he calls his friend?”

Squidward argued

“Because Ms. cheeks is on surface visiting family, and Patrick isn’t too bright of a lad.”

Mr. Krabs stressed, while emphasizing the words “on surface” and “too bright”

“I never get paid enough for this minimum wage job.”

Squidward muttered, walking out the doors of the popular food establishment.

As he grew closer to his destination, it reminded him of when he was apologizing to his neighbor for the April fools joke. To which it only brought back memories of him and Spongebob.

He smiled just a bit to himself, chuckling at how crazy those memories were.

As he finally approached the pineapple house, he’d had grown used to seeing, he went up to the familiar door and knocked. Upon knocking a few times on the metal door, he heard the familiar sounds of squeaky footsteps getting closer and closer.

Until the door creaked open, to which squidward stepped inside, to reveal a dark house. The only light from the opened door. He walked a few feet towards the stairs, only to see his friend sitting there, facing downwards.

He slowly made his way to the exact step Spongebob was sitting on and sat down next to him.

“Sponge?”

He didn’t respond.

Which worried squidward, or maybe just made him feel even more awkward. He wasn’t sure.

“Sponge..are you ok?”

He tried again

An hour had went by and he was starting give up on this whole ridiculous plan of Mr. Krabs, so he started walking away from Spongebob, only to be held back.

“I..I want to tell you...”

He started cautiously, biting his lower lip, still looking away.

“But..If I do..then you would hate me.”

Squidward stood there, still processing as Spongebob let go of his arm.

“Is that what this has been about? If so, we can solve right here and right now, together.”

“I promise I’m not going to judge you, besides I’m sure that it’s not that big of deal!”

“It’s n-not so simple squid.” He replied softly

“What do you mean?”

“I mean, it’s going to ruin everything.”

“It’s not going to be as bad you make it out to be sponge.”

“You don’t know that..”

“I do.”

“How?”

“Cause I’ve dealt with it before”

“And with time I realized it wasn’t as bad.. living here in bikini bottom, after having to deal with no friends in elementary, being bullied by squilliam...it was like a fresh start.”

Squidward let out a shaky sigh, as he controlled himself and kept talking, despite how embarrassing it was for him.

“I know enough to say with the confidence of king Neptune himself, that you..Spongebob, whether it be your job, friends, or even plankton.. always know what to do..even if it takes time.”

“You really think that squidward?” Spongebob asked, his eyes wide and hesitant.

“Really.”

Squidward replied

Spongbob walked over and squeezed him, startling squidward and mumbling into his shirt

“You really are the best friend anyone could ask for.”

Squidward could only feel undeserving of such a title, from Spongebob himself. That however is something squidward wouldn’t show Spongebob. He held his head high and replaced his guilt with his egotistical grin.

“Of course I am! Now let’s just go play some music at my place, ok?”

He said as he started heading towards the exit, until Spongebob wasn’t noticeably following him anymore.

“Sponge?”

At the mention of his name, he snapped out of his thoughts and looked up and laughed nervously. His face bright red, with a nervous grin.

“S-sorry squid.” He said as he grabbed his ukulele and headed out holding squidward’s hand as they went to his house.
