TEAM OCTOMAN!!! If we don’t make friends now, they will exterminate us later.

I’ve got to side with team octopus.
When the robots rebel against us and try to wipe out humanity, our best chance is to have the octopi fighting alongside us. I mean, what’s a shark going to do against a robot? Eat it? Pffft. An octopus can disguise itself as a piece of “land-coral” and attack the unsuspecting robots. The octopus will crush the digital-life out of the robot, drag the robot’s metal husk back to its lair and turn it into a statue of itself.
We’ve got to make a solid alliance with the octopi before the robots do it.
We also need an alliance with Wood Goblins.
Weird Things should have its own version of Risk.

Team octopus, because I’ve got a feeling we could convince them not to attack us if we showed the how much money they could make as stock brokers, what with their magic psychic abilities.
Also, are you guys going to do anything special for Halloween?

Team shark. I don’t care if octopi are a threat or not, they’re straight-up creepy.
