(Y/N) was pumped up for Turf War, they readied their (F/W), and headed to the Lobby with their team: (T/N).  Soon, it was battle time.

The map was Brinewater Springs, and the team they were up against was the Ace of Spades, notorious for being extremely skilled, and their leader never missing a shot. (Y/N) clutched their (F/W) tightly, wearing their (OF), and then deployed into battle.

"Remember guys, we got this! Never give up!" (Y/N) hyoed up their team, their teammates cheered

It was quite rough, they were splatted multiple times, but managed to splat back, their teammates have their back.

"(Y/N)! Look Out!" (TM/N) cried out, (Y/N) managed to dodge one of Hoshikou's shots, making it her first miss in a while. "Wowza, you're speedy." Hoshikou commented, then ultimately sniped (Y/N) again.

Soon, their team was wiped out, and Hoshikou's teammates painted as much as they can, leading to their loss.

"Aww man... We lost." (TM/N) huffed, holding his Sploosh-o-matic 7 in despair. 

"We tried what we can." (Y/N) shrugged, then they were approached by Hoshikou herself.

"You guys did great. Don't be sad, or I'll be said." Hoshikou spoke, comforting (Y/N) and their teammates.

"Oh um, thanks." (TM/N) chuckled. 

"Don't worry about it." Hoshikou said. "If you guys want to improve, I can help." she offered

"Oh sure, we'd like that." (Y/N) spoke, a soft smile on their face. 

"WAIT. WAIT. You're seriously not freaking out that Hoshikou, out of all people offered to help US?!" (TM/N2) exclaimed, she's at a loss for words. "She's like... My idol, when it comes to chargers." she continued

"Well, I guess we can't turn this down then." (Y/N) laughed, Hoshikou chuckled alongside them.

"Meet me tomorrow at the Training Range  when you can, I can help you guys improve." Hoshikou said.

*Timeskip brought by the yoinky sploinky*

(Y/N) and their team meet Hoshikou at the Training Range, seeing Hoshikou waiting for them there, their eyes light up.

"Damn, I didn't know you'd actually show up." Hoshikou commented, giggling "Anyways, I have a few tips for you guys. Number one, don't rush in so quickly, flanking's a great option, it helps you ink more areas which are uncovered. Number two, use your subweapons, it's a good way to disperse fights. Number 3, you should move around alot when you're in a fight, and also do alot of unexpected things to through the enemy off." Hoshikou explained

"That's alot to take in, but we'll try." (Y/N) nodded with determination.

They soon ended up training with Hoshikou for a few hours, improving their skills gradually. By the end of the day, they've improved alongside their team quite a bit, their proficiency with the (F/W) has increased.

"That was something, we should take a break." (TM/N) suggested.

"Yup, we should get drinks, it's on me by the way." Hoshikou nodded, holding cash. "We're going to the cafe. Any requests?" *Hoshikou asked, leading (Y/N) and (T/N) to a nearby cafe.

"(F/D), please." (Y/N) said. 

"I'll have a matcha latte." (TM/N) requested.

"For me, I'll have a strawberry frappe with extra sprinkles." (TM/N2) requested.

"Short Ristretto Four Pump Pumpkin Spice Cappuccino at 100 degrees with Soy Milk and Chocolate Drizzle." (TM/N3) said, with an innocent look on their face.

"Right then. I'll need a notepad for yours, since you're verrrry picky." Hoshikou commented, then went inside the cafe.

"Welcome to the Aro-mist cafe! How can we help you?" The barista Cypress welcomed her in.

"I'd like takeout drinks." Hoshikou placed her money on the tab

"Alright then, what will it be?" Cypress took out a notepad.

"A (F/D), a matcha latte, a strawberry frappe with extra sprinkles and a Short Ristretto Four Pump Pumpkin Spice Cappuccino at 100 degrees with Soy Milk and Chocolate Drizzle." Hoshikou memorised (TM/N3)'s order.

"Oh, I see... Your drinks will be coming up in a bit, please wait." Cypress was a bit stunned at the order.

*After waiting*

Vanil then came out with the drinks in a cupholder holding 4 drinks.

"Here's your order, thanks for coming here!" Vanil expressed with a subtle bow before walking off.

Hoshikou then gave everyone their drinks, and they seemed to enjoy it.

End of story, Hoshikou's friends with them now.

Sorry if this is too short. I wrote this all in one go.

Cypress, Vanil and the Aro-Mist cafe all belong to Squeaky on X or Artstation (sorry had to re-search that since my memory actually sucks ahh), they make concepts for Splatoon 3 (I think they're neat)
