I ship them so hard, Your Honor
Monomon is the “Queen” of the jellyfish creatures that inhabit the Fog Canyon, but not in the traditional sense. She does not have a monarchy that she governs—She is the “Queen” that her “hive” serves and protects.
Like normal jellyfish, the oomas and uomas are like a bundles of nerves. They cannot see or hear, but they react to changing stimuli in the environment. The only one among them able to think independently, to see and hear the world around them: their queen, Monomon.
Before the rise of the Pale King, Monomon was incapable of higher thought. However, she was clearly more intelligent than the primal beasts that roamed the depths. She had a very strong sense of curiosity, which the King learned when he’d found a hidden stash of tomes and journals in her possession. Inspired by her desire to learn, he granted her higher thoughts along with the other bugs of Hallownest.
With her mind expanded, Monomon began to learn as much as she could about the world around her, including the nature of her jellies. She knew that they would respond to her mental state, but she didn’t know the specifics. There was clearly a pattern they would follow depending on her emotional state:
When she was happy or excited, they would gravitate to her and cling to anything around her. Her theory was that they wished to partake in whatever was causing her joy.
When she was upset, they would grab anything around them and bring it to her. She believed they are trying to cheer her up by presenting her with gifts.
When she is scared/angry, they turn hostile and attack anything that draws near. This seems to be a primal instinct to protect the queen when she senses danger.
It wasn’t until she took on her apprentice, Quirrel, that she was able to learn more about their behaviors. Since they behaved in response to her, there was no way for her to see how they reacted without her presence. But with Quirrel able to study them away from Monomon, he learned that the strength of the reactions that the jellies had was entirely dependent on their distance from Monomon. The further they were from her, the weaker their reaction. This has led Monomon to believe that she is unknowingly emitting pheromones out into the environment that they are sensing and responding to.
With this knowledge in hand, Monomon began an experiment to see if she could teach any of the jellies to ignore her pull or think somewhat independently of her. This would eventually lead to the creation of Uumuu—a being that was created solely for security purposes. It would be able to ignore her pulls so that it could remain vigilant, and had been taught to identify threats without Monomon having to identify them as such beforehand.
When Monomon became a Dreamer and was sealed away, it turned the Oomas/Uomas completely docile. Without their queen to guide them, they merely drift aimlessly, awaiting the call of their queen once more. The only exception: Uumuu, who still spends their days guarding the sleeping Monomon from any intruders who dare try to wake her. But with the infection slowly overcoming it, and without Monomon’s guiding tentacle, Uumuu has lost the capability to differentiate friend and foe. Even in the presence of a familiar face, it can only follow what it was trained to do:
Protect Monomon at all cost.
So I’ve got a RP blog for the Conductor, and in order to develop his character I had to give him a wife. ‘Cause, ya know, those babies had to come from somewhere.

More comic let's gooo! So disclaimer: If you're wondering why the art style changed midway through these pages, it's because I've gotten a new drawing tablet~! It has definitely helped to streamline the drawing process though, I will say.
(Also fun fact, pages 7-9 were the first pages I made. Yes, even before the prologue pages, lol)
In other news, I now have a master post for this comic! Hopefully that will make it easier for you guys to find your place when reading ♥
Hi, there!! You may not remember (I would not expect you to at all), but I used to be a follower of yours on Deviantart! I went by TheFeltHat and I was super into your Kirby humanizations and fanart. It’s been quite a few years, but I wanted to thank you! You inspired me to draw, and it’s something I love doing every day! I think about your art from time to time and I wanted to shoot you a message and thank you for how you made me want to be better, and helped me love my art! Thank you so much.
Awwwww~!! This was so sweet to see in my inbox! You don’t know how flattered I am to hear this ♥ ♥ ♥ I can’t even find the words!!! Honestly I didn’t even think anyone from DeviantArt knew I was posting on here now!
This was such a lovely thing to get in my inbox, especially after having a lot of rough stuff going on irl. I’m so glad I could be an inspiration to you and I hope you continue to draw and spread positivity, both to yourself and to others~! ♥ ♥ ♥ Get out there and show the world what you can do!!
