This is my first fanfiction, I'm sorry if you don't really like it. This is a new thing to me and I came up with this on a whim and just wrote it down. Please review it, it would be greatly appreciated. :3


"Byoki, don't worry. It's not weird… just… unique. You'll be fine."

"...Thanks… Bye."


"And that's all the time we've got! Until next time…" the voice echoed throughout Inkopolis Square. As many inklings stood staring at the large screen, various colours gleaming in the day, the duo exclaimed their signature catchphrase.

"Don't get cooked! Stay off the hook!" The excitement that left the bodies of the inklings watching as the monitor blanked to a different scene was a daily experience for many inklings as they moved on with their various lives.

...That is, if any of the inklings were actually paying attention to them, it would have been. A bright coloured inkling caught the eye of many other inklings as he walked past everyone in the Square. A normal inkling, with normal clothes, and normal hair. Although, with just one catch.

"That kid's hair, is it… it definitely is… never seen that before here…" As many murmurs could be heard around him, the bright hair colour of his always seemed to catch the eye of every inkling around. As he lifted his bags full of necessities and personal belongings, he looked upwards to see the sky as clear as any other day. The light shining onto him emphasized the colours he possessed. A bright white gleaming more than any other inkling around.

Looking around to find the apartment his family had bought for him from home, he trudged throughout the Square, trying his best to ignore the attention he was gathering just by being around.


Rushing around his apartment to pack everything, he glanced at the clock and stressed over his lack of time management and inability to navigate. He quickened his pace as a familiar voice slowly increased in volume in the hallway.

"Settled in yet, little bro?" The voice, now audible, came from Marie, a relieving face to see for Byoki as the one who actually knew how his colour came to be. She let herself in and waved at him with a tiny smile. Turning around to see her, he was amazed by how much she changed since he last saw her at their old hometown along with Callie before they left for their music career.

"Your fans didn't mow you down when you walked out of your home, Marie? The boy sarcastically said, still unpacking.

"Callie was able to hold them off for awhile. She should be here soon. Anyway, welcome to Inkopolis Square, Byoki."

"Did I hear my name?" another voice questioned as the other half to the famous duo came in. Callie walked in and waved at him, although he wasn't paying attention, leaving her with a sour mood. Worried after his incident back at home, they decided to take care of him and introduce him to the locals and familiarize him with the various places in the bustling center of Inkopolis.

"Thanks, you two. But I think I'm just gonna sleep in today after unpacking. The train ride took a lot out of me and I'd just like some rest." He said, remembering the embarrassment he felt during his walk through the city. As he turned around, he regretted his words as two concerned faces looked at him.

"Oh… alright…" Callie managed to mumble out as she looked down to the ground.

"Could we at least… help you unpack? We haven't seen each other since..." Marie was interrupted as they looked up to see him run up and hug them both together. Looking at each other, they smiled and hugged him back, forgetting the past for just a while longer.

"Alright! Let's do this! Callie exclaimed as she grabbed his belongings and started to arrange them all in an organized manner, as Marie cleaned everything up in the house that was still dirty. With both of them being blessed with their physical prowess during their days of splatfests. Byoki watched as his whole house came to life with every second they worked, watching in awe as he sighed with relief at how fast they were.


"And… done…" the pair managed to squeeze out of their throats as they flopped onto the couch in his now furnished living room with pants and gasps of air.

"Wow… you guys are amazing at whatever you do." The pair gave him a thumbs up as they tried to catch their breath. Coming back from the kitchen with some water, they thought to themselves, "He really is still the same as before."

They downed their drinks and got up from his couch, wanting him to go rest quickly for their plans tomorrow. He looked at them and thought of saying sorry for making them help him. The two looked back to see him looking down with a disdained look on his face. The two looked at each other and nodded, walking towards him and giving him a second hug.

"Don't worry about it, little bro. We're always there to help you." Marie said with Callie adding in on her sentence.

"Yeah! We're always there for you, Byoki."

"Thanks for helping out, and for being there for me." Byoki uttered through their strong hug as he let go of them and smiled, with a tiny "goodnight" following it.

The two replied appropriately and left to let him rest after his long day. "He's a lot cuter now, isn't he, Callie?" Marie mentioned to her as she turned around with a flustered look.

Byoki walked to his bedroom, exasperated and ready to sleep. Passing by the mirror, he looked at himself with numerous thoughts provoking his mind as he untied his pure white hair and jumped onto the bed. Emotions jabbed at him, all of them haunting him. But after seeing his sister and childhood friend and cousin again, he shrugged it off and called it a day. A good one, to be precise.


I'm sorry if this wasn't very good, this is my first time writing a fanfiction. Hopefully anyone could give feedback on this. Thank you. :3
