Winging it with an air of authority is even better.

Their parents didn't hug them enough when they were little kids.

Doc Occs parents might have hugged him too much, hence the extra clingy new appendages.

The new appendages were for him to hug them back, I guess.

Real-life octopi are said to be very intelligent.

Octopi are quite smart. Have read a few stories of them escaping from aquariums unnoticed... eating fish in other aquariums... and coming back

Interestingly, the historical Aristotle believed that octopi weren't particularly smart, largely on the basis of the fact that they were unafraid of humans.

TYPICAL philosopher: acting all high and mighty just because he's a vertebrate.

I think it'd be cool to hang out with Gates. Not sure how he'd feel about that, though.

As long as we listen to his opinions and ask intelligent questions, I think he'd be happy!

That proposed Legion Saturday morning cartoon, though... the one where they wanted him voiced by Lorenzo Music... I kind of had my doubts.

I think they should break with tradition and give him an accent like Archie Bunker instead.

I'm terrible with accents. I can often sort of recognize them, but tend to get confused.

There are so many YouTube channels now with how-tos for actors looking to get very specific accents right. You could spend months doing an immersion course in authentic accents if you suddenly ran out of other things to do.
