May I request some min/inkling incorrect quotes? (Can be romantic or platonic either one is fine :D)
Will do ^^
Sorry this took so long :')
•─────✦─────•
Min: I swear if I see one of them running off again without a plan, I'll make sure to mark their grave-
Inkling: I'll... I'll keep that in mind...
─────────────────────
Inkling: *is showing Min a very old map*
Min: Wait a moment, there's a path here and here that isn't documented, as well as-
Inkling: *look of pure love and adoration*
─────────────────────
Kwazii: *trying to explain current meme culture*
Inkling: So basically, I have to go searching for beans at 2am with friends?
Kwazii: Well no-
Inkling, already on the phone with Min: Min, I have a proposition to make.
─────────────────────
Min: Oh my stars. Do you know what this is?
Inkling: It’s a book. There’s a lot of those in here, this is a library. My library specifically.
─────────────────────
Min, trying to text Inkling: O
Inkling: What?
Min: Don’t read into that. Please...
Inkling: I will read into that.
Min: How? It's just a letter. A single letter.
Inkling: Why is there a space after it, hmmmmm? There's meaning behind it!
Min: Really Professor? It's a letter, that's all.
Inkling: It could stand for something.
Min: I promise you that it stands for nothing.
Inkling: Like Oppression! Or worse,
Min: Professor, I accidentally hit the letter "O" and hit send.
Inkling: Optometrist.
Min looking up from her phone: • - •
─────────────────────
Inkling and Min: *having a joke argument*
Min: You know what? I'm going to prove that I'm correct with solid facts!
Inkling: I will too
Inkling: *grabs a book with the proper information*
Min: *pulls up Wikipedia and edits the article just to mess with Inkling*
─────────────────────
Min drawing out a map: I've connected the two dots-
Inkling looking over her shoulder: It seems you have.
Kwazii vibrating in the corner whispering the meme under the breath: hhhhhhhhhh
─────────────────────
Min: Help! I’m drowning!
Inkling: Calm down, we’re only in six feet of water!
Min: NOT ALL OF US ARE SEA CREATURES INKLING-
─────────────────────
Min: Good morning Professor!
Inkling, who hasn't slept in days: ... What?
─────────────────────
Inkling: You spent all our money on... this?
Min, putting tiny raincoats on ducklings: They live outside. They need this. Trust me.
─────────────────────
Min: Are you busy?
Inkling: Yes.
Min: Cool, have a look at this if you may-

I see these two as such a chaotic duo and I have no idea why. Super nice people, insanely smart, and while they have basic logic and common sense they would end up doing the stupidest things known to man.
Once again I'm sorry for this taking so long, my brain lowkey evaporated on me lol.
Request and such are still open ^^
May add to this, as I go:
Captain Barnacles:
Just everyone’s dad
All of them, except for Professor Inkling has called him Dad at least once. He doesn’t mind.
Nobody has ever seen him cry.
He spends one on one time with each of the crew members whenever he can (typically once a week with each of them).
Sings in the shower
Has pretty strict routines
Kwazii:
ADHD
Not just afraid of spiders, but needles too (not that he’d ever admit it!)
Often takes the GUP-B out just for the fun of it, but will also do so to get out of something (normally cleaning or when the Captain’s playing his accordion)
Sneaks into the Captain’s room to play with his model ships
Such a sweet tooth
Messiest of all of them
Peso:
Intimidated by Captain Barnacles when they first met
Stopped feeling that way after a difficult mission, where the Captain told Peso he was very proud of him
Puts the Captain on a pedestal
Youngest and most recent to join
Anxiety
He has hundreds of family members and he remembers the names and birthdays of every single one.
Shellington:
Autistic
Bullied as a child; Pearl stuck up for him and they were extremely close as a result
His satchel is a comfort item and a seemingly bottomless pit. If you see him pull things out of it, you’ll think, Wow! How did you fit all that in there?
Mother calls him Shelly; she’s the only one who does so
(I can’t remember where I saw this theory, but I think it makes a lot of sense.) In addition to marine biology, he has an interest in linguistics. That’s how he was able to learn Vegimalese.
Does not care if you interrupt one of his infodumps. He will just keep talking.
Clumsiest and most absentminded of the crew
Do NOT watch any nautical themed cartoon with him (e.g. SpongeBob or Finding Nemo). He will just spend the entire time pointing out all the inaccuracies.
Best artist on the Octopod
Dashi:
Octopod’s unofficial DJ
Loves strawberries and strawberry flavoured things
Completely ignores danger while trying to get the perfect photo
Second best artist
Just loves babies! Any kind of babies!
Tweak:
Mother passed away when she was young; Ranger Marsh raised her all by himself
Known Captain Barnacles longer than any of the others
Even though the Captain is her dad and Kwazii’s her brother, she’s the mum of the Octopod.
Plays the banjo
Professor Inkling:
Most painfully slow driver you can imagine
Gives the best advice
Shellington was one of his (most talented) students. That was how Shellington got the job with the Octonauts.
Never leaves the library unless he absolutely has to
Vegimals:
Always make sure they have a supply of everyone’s favourite flavour of kelp cake in case anybody needs some emergency comfort food
Often sleep holding hands (they learned this from Shellington when they were babies)
Sometimes sleep with one of the Octonauts (mostly Shellington, but sometimes the others as well)
