S3C Chapter 50: Grand Festivities

50 Chapters already and a whole Splatoon game once again finished. And it hasn't even been a year since I returned to writing this story. It feels like it's been longer as if this couldn't have all happened in such a short amount of time. I've so thoroughly enjoyed being back here, and every comment that gives me the strength to type each next word of this story. I can't thank you all enough. These games, this story, and all of you make me so happy. I hope I can give out even a fraction of the feeling it all gives me as a thanks for it all.

This chapter ended up a bit of a longer chapter, which for once, I am completely happy and didn't hate how distracted I got during it. At some point, I just locked in for it and managed to finish it tonight. It's not the ending of this story, nor is this the start of a hiatus. But it still feels like a momentous chapter, and I'm happy to be giving it out for all of you to (hopefully) enjoy. I'll have the next one out relatively soon. Thanks!

(Y/N) POV

(Y/N) watched from the tinted windows of the bus as the seven idols got off the bus and were already being crowded by fans despite the Grand Festival not having many people attending yet.

The seven of them posed for some pictures and autographed some items, Shiver attempting to charge people before Marie stopped her.

Once that was all done, the crowd dispersed, happy to have gotten to see the idols but also excited to see the Grand Festival, just as they all were.

With the crowd now gone, (Y/N) took that as his cue to leave the bus, not wanting to photo-bomb all the fans' pictures of the celebrities.

Shiver POV

Shiver was getting lightly scolded by Marie still for trying to solicit money for the pictures, but Shiver was just using her hand behind her fan to mimic a yapping mouth, which Frye giggled at the sight of.

(Y/N): At least the only people here so far seem to mostly be the people who already had tents set up for the event. Otherwise, that probably would've gone on longer.

Marie: We would've just told them no more if it came down to it.

Marina: But it's so hard to tell the fans no.

Pearl: We'll be here for three days, yo. They've got plenty of chances to get any autographs they want. But we ain't got as much time to check this place out in our free time without gettin' mobbed.

Frye: Speakin' o' which, what're we waiting for?

Shiver smirked, seeing her opportunity.

Shiver: It'd be better if we all split up. That way, we don't get swarmed as much by being in such a noticeable group.

Shiver offered the idea.

Shiver: So, how about we split up into idol groups, and I guess we'll just also take (Y/N) while we're at it.

Shiver smiled, confidently in her plan before she looked around for (Y/N), but not seeing him.

Shiver: (Y/N)? Where is he?

Marina: Callie started running off with him a minute ago with Marie following along after them.

Pearl: Wha- Marina?! Why didn't you say anything?!

Marina shrugged.

Marina: I thought it'd be fine to let them have him first. You and I can explore the festival on our own first, Pearlie!
