Since I was little

I knew from a very young age that I'd reign terror.
One of my favorite, arguably mythological creatures is the kraken. I even have a giant octopus tattooed to my back, I consider it to be my most prized possession.
The octopus is by far my favorite modern animal. Not sure why, perhaps their ferocity and determination. Everything about an octopus' life is well--metal. They're kinda hardcore.
When mating a male will rip off his arm, jizz on it, and present it to a female who is left to decide what to do with it. Whether she uses his sperm or not, she'll still take the arm.
After finding a small, dark hole to lay her eggs in, a new mother will stay with them. She will not leave, not even to eat, until her eggs have hatched.
Once they hatch, the female is so withered and starved that she soon dies right beside the bed of eggs she laid months ago. The newborns are on their own.
Every species of octopus has a bone crushing beak hidden under their tentacles. They use this beak to crack open anything small enough to fit in their mouths.
One of the deadliest animals in the world is an octopus, the Blue Ringed Octopus. These little guys are tiny. However they've got quite the bite as their saliva is made up of a nasty venomous cocktail which is by all means, lethal. They're kinda cute...
