aww, such a touching story.

and I don't even like cephalopods xD
the only thing with many legs/tentacles that doesn't send me screaming is probably... Chtulhu!

wanna know something crazy? I was just reading a murder mystery where the weapon was a blue ringed octopus. LOL

Heh... was it Mrs. Peacock with the Blue-Ringed Octopus in the conservatory?

Actually it was Mrs. Octopus in the conservatory with a peacock mantis shrimp. ;)

Thanks Dan, I reposted it in FB for a friend that is octo-kraken silly! She will appreciate the logo and the celebration!

I'm terribly afraid of blue-ringed octopus.
The smaller variety can land in your face without you seeing it because it's so tiny, and its bite will kill you within minutes.

On the other hand, it's very pretty.
The colour scheme would make a great tail!

Lol!
For the perfect octotail, you'd need a special ao though.
Don't think I've seen one.

Lately, I tried to swim in a cephalopod way in the pool and managed quite well
(I contracted myself, drawing in all extremities, and pushed forward straightening them, the arms pushing along.
If I'd had an octopus costume, it might have looked close enough).

I'm having a bit of fun on the Facebook Page for Cephalopod Awareness Days (https://www.facebook.com/CephDays) , today. After all, it is Myths & Legends day.
