Description
During October of 2020, nearing Raymonds birthday (see piece above) I was experiencing a tough fandom burnout for the animal crossing fandom as a whole. Not only did I not even have the New Horizons game, but there really just wasn't any substance for me to work with. The thing is... I was actually getting into octonauts at this time and I didn't care for anch anymore. I drew this piece pretending to still be into animal crossing, and I remember just feeling empty. I was just doing it for my few followers and not for myself.

During the pandemic as I lost interest for animal crossing, I just felt so miserable. Without a franchise to latch onto, being stuck at home was nothing but sad. Thats why when I first watched Octonauts again for the first time in years, it devoured me. I am convinced that if it weren't for the conditions of my mental health at the time I put on Octonauts just for funsies and nostalgia, I wouldn'tve gotten into Octonauts the way I am into it now. Ever since I got into Octonauts, everything else that I liked was just a side thing that I only thought about occasionally.
Following me getting into Octonauts would be month after month of being so motivated and full of love for this childrens show that I'n surprised I didn't just explode. This feeling would last until April 2021.
