It was a normal day in Splatsville and the Deep Cut was getting ready for yet another daily Splatcast. Of course everybody was always excited to see the Splatsville news when their favourite idols were on display. Shiver, Frye and Big Man were getting ready in their seperate rooms of the building, doing touch ups and other needed stuff.

Frye's pov:
Big Man has alredy made his way to the studio. I get out of my room and make my way to Shiver's room. I knock on the door and stand outside.

"Heeey, you ready to go, Shivs?" I grin a little on the other side of the door.

"Yeah! Gimme a minute." I hear steps aproaching the door and it openes. There she is. The most beautiful octoling in the whole world. My eyes widen slightly and I blink a few times.

"Y-You look stunning, Shiver. More than normaly." I smile softly.

"Aww, really now? Come on, quite your little lovey-dovey compliments and lets go." She grabs my arm and starts to drag me to the studio with her.

Oh my god, this has never happened before. I got flustered before splatcast because of her! What am I gonna do?..

We then get to the studio, my face a bit flushed. I sit down on my classic pillow that I have on the ground and stare at the ground blankly.

The colorful light turn on and I blink a few times to get used to it. The camera turns on and the Splatcast begins.

"Listen up! Its going down.. Repping the Splatlands, we're DEEP CUT!" Shiver starts the classic lines.

"A-Anarchy Splatcast! W-We're live!" I stutter out a bit flusterdly.

"Ay! (Here we go!)" Big Man joins in.

"You lip-synch, we drip ink.." Shiver says.

"Ay, ay, ay! (Shiver, Frye and Big Man!)" And Big Man finishes the main lines.

-------------------------------------------------------------

The rest of the Splatcast goes by quite smoothly, exept for every line I have to say, stuttering most of the times. The Splatcast reaches its end.

"And that's it..for now." Shiver starts again.

"Ay! (Let's get outta here!)" Big Man says.

"From Splatsville, that's a wrap." Shiver continues and taps her fan on the wooden table in front of her.

"Catch ya later!" We all say at the same time, mine coming out stuttery again.

The camera turns off and the lights slowly shut down. I let out a slight sigh, knowing I kinda messed up today's live Splatcast..

I get up and make my way to the door, about to get out when Shiver stops me.

"Hey! What's with the early leave, Frye? Where are you going?" She looks at me, clearly curious.

"I-I just feel a bit weird, thats it. I-Im a completely n-normal inkling, not havin' any f-funny business.." I say a bit nervously, looking everywhere else but at her.

She then takes my hand and starts to drag me into the hallway, her grip tight.

"W-Wait, wait, wait! W-What are you doing, w-why the hell are you dragging me?!" I say a bit shakily, becoming a bit nervous now.

"Cuz you're all slow today! And you definitely have something up, Frye. Im not dumb." She lets go and looks at me in the eyes, frowning a little. I sigh a little and make my way to my room.

"Dont fricking forget that we have a meet up with Marina and Pearl today!" She yells before I shut my door. I climb on my bed and hide my face in the pillows, grabbing the plush Eel I have in my bed and hugging it tight.

Why am I like this right now? That's totally not me. I got completely flustered in front of her and fucked up the Splatcast..

I think to myself

Okay, I just.. gotta stay chill and be calm, no harm in that. I have to find something pretty to be in too. God, its gonna be so obvious when we're out with Off the Hook, they'll find out..

I get myself together and sit up, walking to my closet. I rumage thro it and start to get ready to go out, pushing all my thoughts from today out of my head and dont let them get to me..
