You there! What are you doing, skulking about in the shadows?

Yes, your eyes do not deceive you. It is I, Zote the Mighty, a knight of great renown! I've chosen to vacate my humble abode and face the treacherousness of the world once more. For quite some time, I have been locked away in the drab and dull atmosphere of this town, and I will yield to it no longer.

The air here stifles me. I will fall to no such feeble hindrance! Especially not when self-imposed.

...Hm? You wish to ask questions of me? After all this time, NOW I am approached with awe and intrigue? Hmph. Well, I suppose I may indulge you. But do not waste my time, cur! I've many expeditions to be off on, and many foes to cut down! You will owe me a great debt of gratitude for my patience and the honor of my presence!

Spit it out, then! What have you to ask me?

[[OOC:

Hello! Blog owner here! My main is @ratcandy, and you can call me Clam! To get some necessities out of the way:

This blog was partially inspired by @/knight-of-hallownest's own Ask Zote blog!

I will not be answering NSFW questions! Zote the Mighty is Not Interested.

Not every answer will have art accompanying it. I will only draw something if I Feel Like It. So don't come in expecting silly funny art, u may just get silly funny dialogue!

The version of Zote I am presenting here is directly related to my interpretation of him in Camouflage of Great Renown, a fanfic in which Zote is a nosk in disguise. How he may answer some things may seem strange without that context! But be aware! This man is in some serious denial. He will not readily answer questions about nosk life. At least not for a while. Gotta break him down first.

Timeline-wise according to that fic, this blog would take place not long after the ending. In an optimistic reality where he snaps out of it for a bit. Not saying that any of this is 100% canon to CoGR's world, as I have my own ideas for that - but hey! Still fun!

I'm mostly doing this for fun because I greatly enjoy writing Zote dialogue. Works as writing practice too! And well yknow. There's a miniature zote in my brain who possesses me sometimes and this is my way of letting him talk. Don't worry about it.

Depending on how many asks I end up getting, the frequency of my responses may be all over the place! I'm currently a Struggling College Student, so. Worth keeping in mind!

anyway. That's enough rambling from me! If you've got any questions for Me that Zote cannot answer, go to my main n let me know there!

Thanks for stoppin by <3]]

Actually wait yeah Zote is a Nosk look at his puppet ass mouth

That is artificially made

And right here to the side?

Elderbug. One of few NPCs with a mouth. And his mouth does not resemble Zote’s at all. It’s 3 dimensional and protruding, it goes all the way down to his lower chin, as opposed to zotes that abruptly ends at the frontal part of the chin, and lastly elderbug’s could theoretically open or close. Zotes, however? Can’t move much. The game shows it doesn’t move foreward like elderbugs does so where else could it go to open or close? Down. Like pinnochio, like a nutcracker, like any old puppet. Artificially made dolls and toys, artificially made like the disguises of a Nosk

And there’s a lot more arguments for this theory but I just wanted to talk about zotes nutcracker lookin mouth here

*There was a 11 year old girl walking around, the girl had messy brown hair that had bright cyan highlights and that faded into a cherry sorta color, she wore a bright purple and gray striped shirt, purple pants that seemed a bit small on the girl and she had scrapes on her feet, she also had a pretty big backpack that was dragging across the ground while the girl wore it that’s how big it was, anyone gonna talk to her? She seems lonely*

@the-plushie-friendships

(Since this a roleplay, this is NOT canon to the blog-)

The two of them just stared at whatever type of bug she is (Humans do not exist in HK btw)

"Who....is this?"

WARNING !! JUMPSCARE AND FLASHING LIGHTS  watch at your own risk Camouflage Of Great Renown (COGR) Fanmade Prequel A BIG BIG GIFT for CLAM!

SOLDIER OF GREAT RENOWN ( SOGR ) Fanmade story Nosks are an intelligent species to a degree - as they're still rather feral in nature and incredibly territorial - and they have their own secret society in Deepnest. Given that they have proximity to the Pale King, it was inevitable for them to gain minds and sapience... but they still retain a hostile nature to them They are most feared,creatures who ever walked in hollownest. They are  deceitful, and cunning shapeshifting beasts who dwell upon the depths of below, who lure unfortunate bugs in their deaths.. until something happened that made the Great Nosks extinct well..... even beasts of deception can fall for their own trickery.... a fanmade story inspired by: Camouflage Of Great Renown (COGR )   written by @ratcandy ok so there so many plot changes in this fanfic. writing is so hard this is just an AU of an AU the vague characters in COGR will finally have some spotlight ( if anybody read COGR ) i already made the plot and the chapters but the real challenge is that how i am going to write it down in paper idk if i am going to continue this fanfic
