Octopus's Garden

"Oh yeah, it's tentacle #@%$ time!"

**Octopus's Garden** (蛸と海女) is Wesker's proper stand after he took the Cursed Mio Energy Drink upon himself, bursting forth from his previous ineffective stand Flaming Gay Flamingo.

### Appearance

As Flaming Gay Flamingo twisted in agony in chaotic rhythm to the Mio energy cursing Wesker's soul, an octopus body sprung from its head and splattered what was once the stand's facsimile for a seat of knowledge, representing the Eldritch Truth smashing the boundaries of the human brain. From there it grew and grew until there was no more left of it to see. Now Octopus's Garden manifests as a churning storm of gigantic tentacles that emerge from locations outside of observer's line of vision, following the rules of Perception Theory.

### Sbilities

**Tentacle Hentai**: By nature of taking an arthropod shape, Wesker may manipulate the tentacles to heat-seek unfilled (sometimes filled) orifices, more dedicated to crashing in than a kamikaze pilot with a family back home, a lovely wife he loves and grew up with her as childhood friends, high school sweethearts, had a child with that he cherishes more than anything else in the world, and wait a second this is just getting sad now. Anyways, Octopus's Garden can crush, whip, constrict, and generally make a sloppy mess of a variety of targets. While it does become more precise the longer Wesker uses it in a combat encounter, it needs time to "get up" and starts off as quite sluggish and clumsy.

**Narrative Manipulation**: Octopus's Garden has a jet black ink that it may spray from tiny holes in its suction cups that have the ability to write Wesker out of reality. During this time, Wesker is unaware of anything going on outside of his Pocket Egg and cannot even tell up from down. Wesker can release this state of non-existence by wrapping his arms together and making obnoxious kissy noises.

## Beneath the Waves

After Wesker fell to despair and drank the Cursed Mio Energy Drink, Wesker began to disassociate with reality and fall into his own mind further and further. Octopus's Garden's unfathomable shape represents the endless extent of the darkness from beyond the stars. In an interview with the writers of Weskerocity it was explained that while Flaming Gay Flamingo was a stand made to take all the attention, Octopus's Garden represents a split in Wesker's mind, somewhere between a desire to disappear entirely and forcefully grab others' attention to him.

## Trivia

* The power of Wesker's narrative manipulation in phasing out of reality seems to be so potent that it has led for his truest of friends to even forget he exists at points.
* According to the Official Weskerocity Databook Wesker is immortal and cannot die or be injured, however this is only half true as he's only invulnerable when he's blotted out of reality.
* Furthermore, the Databook boldly states that Octopus's Garden's weakness is Phimosis, which "is defined as **the inability to retract the skin (foreskin or prepuce) covering the head (glans) of the penis**. Phimosis may appear as a tight ring or “rubber band” of foreskin around the tip of the penis, preventing full retraction."
