Memoir

(new chapters are in the works! thank you for your patience!)

It all happened so quickly. One moment, young Octoling Skipper was off who-knows-where doing who-knows-what, and in what felt like the blink of an eye, she found herself alone and without any memory in Inkopolis. The only things she remembered were the notes to a familiar tune, the bleak phrase "Promised Land", and the ever-present desire to make it there.

After being taken in by a friendly Inkling, she indeed learns that she's made it to the Promised Land -- but something is off. She got to Inkopolis in the flick of a switch, without even knowing why she wanted to get there so badly in the first place. Her journey felt... incomplete. But that didn't seem to matter to her -- she was there, and that's what she wanted, right?

However, Skipper can't help but feel like something isn't right. Despite her lack of memories, her senses tell her that something is stirring. Something deep below the happy surface of the Promised Land.

Perhaps her forgotten adventure isn't quite over yet...

(This is an alternate storyline to the Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion DLC based on a headcanon of mine. As such, there will be spoilers for those who haven't seen or played the game, so be careful. But otherwise, please enjoy!)

Expect updates whenever I finish obsessively proofreading every chapter and scrubbing out the tiniest of mistakes.
