hi so um. I wrote a hypothetical Wikipedia article for the waves that lap the shore. Hope yall enjoy.
The Waves that Lap The Shore
The Waves That Lap The Shore is British-American Octonauts X H2O: Just Add Water crossover that first started airing on October 15th 2023 on Netflix (US) and BBC (UK).
It started off as a Fanfiction posted on Tumblr, AO3 and Wattpad. However, the author and show creator, Kitty.L. Wayne (more known by her online usernames, Kittysboba and Asexual-SpongeBob) got permission to make it into a show.
It was produced by Mainframe Studios, Silvergate Media and Brown Bag Films and was written Kitty . L. Wayne.
The theme song “No Ordinary Girl” is by Kate Alexa, The same theme song as second season of H2O. The end credits song is the Mako Mermaids (or otherwise, Mako: Island Of Secrets) theme song.
It is also well known for rock music to be used as background music, a notable example being Weezer’s “Only In Dreams” being used in an episode of the same name.
Its first season is still currently airing and has 20 episodes planned, 19 of which have aired.
Surprisingly, unlike most Octonauts episodes it’s one big episode. No segments.
These episodes can range from 10 -24 minutes depending on the episode.
Not to mention, unlike both shows it’s based on, It is rated TV-14 for usage of cursing and mental health issues.
It was renewed for a second season in late January of 2024.
The show takes place in Ireland (first half of season one) and Australia (second half of season one + beyond)
Plot:
The Octonauts go to Ireland to study sea creatures, Shellington stumbles upon some mysterious sea caves while going for a walk and decides to check it out. Little does he know this would change him, his partner’s and friends lives forever.
Trivia:
Surprisingly, in this show there is romantic relationships. Unlike one of the shows it’s based on, Octonauts. Those relationships being Shellso, Twashi and Kwazini. Shellso being the most shocking to fans.
Not to mention its inclusion of LGBTQIA+/ Queer themes. And mental health issues.
Both Kwazii and Paani have ADHD.
Kwazii and Paani are also Demisexual and Demiromantic.
Shellington is autistic and he is also a trans man. He is also bi.
Peso was the first person to find out about Shellington being a merman.
In the US dub, Peso can be heard cursing in Spanish, for example at the end of Kisses Of Ash he is seen saying “Sí. Estamos cansados de cojones.” Which translates to “Yes. We are tired as fuck.” However in the UK version he just says cuss words in English.
Peso has AUDHD and is transmasc (he/it) and is also gay.
Kisses Of Ash is based off the h2o episode “Bad Moon Rising”.
Paani becomes a merperson in episode twenty, as seen in the trailer for the episode.
The weirdest episode was episode two, “The Quest For Mussels” , where we see Shellington slurping out the flesh from mussels. It is also considered the grossest episode by fans and writer themself, Kitty.
In this show, Kwazii has RSD. It was confirmed in episode 18 “The Disappearance”.
Shellington has the same power as Cleo, Peso as the same power as Emma and Kwazii has the same power as Rikki.
It took awhile for Shellington to discover his power over water, while it didn’t take long for Kwazii, Peso and Paani.
Many people were shocked to find out that the series is rated TV 14.
It was first released in the US and UK.
Rock Lobster by the B52’s can be heard in episode 15.
Shellington is seen listening to Weezer’s “Why Bother” in episode 12.
Kwazii likes the Spice Girls.
Tweak and Kwazii are seen singing Sublime’s “Smoke Two Joints” in episode 13.

cleo && emma continued from x
a smile grew on cleo’s lips as emma hugged her back. sure, they text each other, and emailed. but it wasn’t the same as being able to give her best friend a hug. “i’ve been here a few weeks. i got a job, i’m so glad you’re here, you, and rikki. and bella.”
