Start
An octopus pops in at the cursor with a few bubbles.
Draw
It jets after the cursor mantle first, squeezing with every pulse, its eight suckered arms curling and trailing behind as color ripples down its skin, leaving a dispersing ink cloud and small bubbles.
Release
A big puff of ink and bubbles, and it darts off and is gone.
