One night, as I was trying to go to sleep and thinking about customs as I did so, a brilliant idea hit me. I should do a cuttlefish pony! After all, I love them and I felt fairly certain that nothing like that had ever been done before. As I had recently acquired both Waterfire and Seaspray, I actually got out of bed to go look at the two of them and decide which color/pose I liked better for the idea. Though they're pretty close in color, Seaspray immediately stood out as a wonderful choice for the pose. The very next day I started on the path that would lead me to the whole Cephalopod Series of ponies. I started work on the pony that became Apama and began pondering what other cephalopods could be made into ponies. Quickly, I decided that Beachberry would be great for a Giant Pacific Octopus pony, Island Rainbow would be good for a nautilus pony of some sort, and Bow Tie would be a good squid pony. After purchasing these, I walked out of the store and contentedly thought to myself that now I had the bases for doing ponie for all the main cephalopod groups, minus weird things like Vampyroteuthis infernalis. Immediately, my brain pulled up an image of Fizzy Pop, and I knew that I was going to have to do a Vampire Squid pony as well as the others. Thus the Cephalopod Ponies were born!
