 IHi I'm Kylie and wowthisisareallynicestudiolikethatmiclookssuperexpensivethisiscool

"Take some breaths, K".

Ok, ok. I'm Kylie, Octobrush user of team Harbor Beatz! This is a little bonding story moment! We're sharing like, parts of our story and Harbor Beatz' story too! So, heregoesnothing!!

We were in an alley that we had dubbed "Temporary Headquarters of team Harbor Beatz". Agent three the grump squid had decided she okay with me being in as long as I was under constant supervision. Which obviously meant I had to get to know big squid and shy squid better!

So I talked to Bolt for a little while, and he was nice. But Blink? He had the expression of a shy squid that needed fixing. SO I went over and investigated him.

"What do you want, K."

"Who is she?", I asked. Blink had the face of a squid hopelessly in love, and it was my job to make him and whoever his love was be together!

"W-what? Who's who?"

"You have such a way with words. I can tell you"re pretty shy. So come on, who are you chushing on?"

Blink remained quiet, but the red on his face told me everything.

"I mean, Agent three seems to know whoever it is, and she doesn't look like she gets out much."

"HEY! GET OVER HERE AND SAY THAT TO MY FACE, OCTOBRAT!! "

"and now you got her all riled up. Good job K. You're so great wi"

"omgit'soneofthesquidistersisn'titahhhomgnewotp!!!"

"W-Where, in the name of our g-great zapfish, WHERE did you learn the phrase OTP?" the shy squid said, clearly attempting to detract attention from his red face.

"My hip vocab ain't important, what is important is getting you with Marie!!"

"h...how did you figure that out?"

"your hair and overall style" I said with confidence.

"It is kinda obvious" remarked the tall squid

"Alright! Operation Marink Begin!"

"...marink. me and marie. you guys are idiots. she's too good for me."

"In love people should be equals! Follow your heart!" I told him. I think someone said that in a book.

"PFFFFFF... Ahahaha... a baker AND a comedian? Neat."

"I'm serious!!!"

"You seriously think I can get a date with one of the most famous celebrities ever? You're not the most realistic, are ya."

"ugh... You're such a downer"

"it's called logic."

I decided to walk away from this conversation.

"Heh. That's my bud for you. He becomes cold as soon as you bring up emotion."

"I should bake them stuff."

"huh?!" Bolt exclaimed.

"Yeah... write a letter to marie telling her to meet in the square for cookies... then have blink come too... IT'S PERFECT!!"

"Ya know kid, you're a genius when it comes to love."

"Thanks Bolt. I try." I replied while winking.

"octopunk. I've got a challenge for ya."

"what is it, threester?"

"A: Don't call me Threester. B: We'll be having our first match in a day. Get more splats with your octobrush than I will with my hero shot, and i'll fully accept you."

"Dealio! Loser also has to pay for dinner after the match!"

"Hey blink, we won't have to cook or pay for dinner tomorrow. Awesome, right?"

I looked over, and Blink was buried in his hoodie and headphones.
