TRIGGER WARNING : this is inspired by a thread called the SCR virus on twitter made by FernShawArt. All credits go to the original owner and this contains some gore descriptions like in the original concept such as loss of limbs and death (it's still minor but if you're not comfortable with this kind of subject don't read).

March 1st :
Sup, Daisuke here.
Apparently a new disease called SCR has been spreading in Splatsville and it seemed to have a link with salmonids' proximity with inkfish and their mating seasons or shit like that.
Everybody's talking about it and the authorities already advised us to avoid working at Grizzco but it quickly became the locals' favorite new gossip in the square.
So it's kinda hard to tell between the right and wrong...
Honestly, I don't really give a fuck but I'm careful anyway. I'm no idiot. With no cure found by now it could be dangerous.
For the moment, no one around me has been affected, well at least none of my folks have been acting strange or differently lately.
Guess we'll just have to wait.
I must admit I'm a bit scared for Ray though. He did some salmon run shifts last week and, y'know, it might have exposed him or something like that. But he's still the same goober as usual so it's not alarming.
He says I worry too much about him. Bro he's my boyfriend, of course I do duh.
As for this virus, it'll be under control as long as we're cautious. I have Ray by my side, it's all that matters.
I'm sure it's gonna be okay.

March 3rd :
The authorities asked all splatnadians to be placed in quarantine.
We also finally got the information about the symptoms of this disease, talking about damn time... And a special number for emergencies has even been set up.
We're a step forward to the state of epidemics. Yikes. It didn't happen in what, forever ?
That sucks ass man.
Stop cursing Dai.
Why ? It depicts the current situation perfectly.
...
Okay I'll stop.
As y'all can see, I'm confined in our apartment with Ray and not gonna lie, I'm kinda bored.
I can't go skateboarding, can't shove my stamper in people's faces and I already finished Sonic Frontiers.
I still have bubble tea FORTUNATELY, otherwise I'd have immediately died.
Jayden created a group chat with the chads and named it "how we survived the apocalypse". He's always joking.
Everything he posts basically resumes in a bunch of memes (a lot and weird af) and pics of him doing whatever he's doing in his apartment.
Is he posing in front of an omelet or a run over and burnt chicken ?
Anyways, Carlos mainly posts game clips (this dude's cracked at everything he plays) and Hugo some photos of our meetings.
He found an old one of me and Ray during the very first Splatfest of Splatville, me in team paper and Ray in team scissors, just a few days after we encountered each other. And let me tell ya the way we looked at each other wasn't straight, like, at all.
