Well, guess what? Today is this fanfiction's first anniversary! Yeah, exactly one year ago I uploaded the very first chapter of my story... and after one year, it has 149 chapters of Inkinators' adventures!
Since it's the anniversary, I'm going to reveal my favorite character in this story: Mirii! She's a character with a lot of personality: she makes absolutely sure to not get herself dirty (keeping her clothes and herself clean), she is willing to protect/teach/leaning in favor of Hun, she tries to not utilize her emotions when she has to deal with any situation (being fully logical in other words), she always wants to provide perfect performances (seen by her school results)... and more! It's always interesting to see what she'll do in the next situations!

Blue sky, with a Sun pointing Mirii's complete right side. Her eyes were a bit squeezed, as her right hand stands above her head's right side. She was wearing a short-sleeved white shirt, with a pink Tentatek logo on her chest. Her skirt was light green with a small white tag on the left side, with a black Tentatek logo in the middle.
Mirii took two deep breathes with her nose. A car passed on Mirii's left, driving on the road while leaving behind a large puff of smokes. The girl coughed three times, with her right fist in front of her mouth.
"We are almost reaching Fall season, yet today is really making me think we are in the middle of Summer."
Mirii turns her head to her left, seeing an Inkling girl and an Inkling boy walking on the left sidewalk, in the opposite direction while licking an ice cream, each different from the other.
"This temperature is really suffocating me… I-I should drink a fresh beverage, before I completely melt out of my clothes!"
Sweat starts appearing on her forehead: her right wrist slides on it, as her mouth opened a bit with her teeth gritting a bit.
"Aside from those two, I'm not seeing anyone around…" Her irises bounced left and right. "Maybe this wasn't the opportune time to pay my brother a visit…" Her eyebrows rose, as her posture bends a bit forward.
Mirii sighs loudly, as she lifts her posture back.
Her head turns to her right: a small brick wall was standing in front of a collection of trees. Behind those trees, a road in the middle of a short-sized grass.
"It's not that I'm worried about melting down… after all, I'll just regenerate in the nearest Public Spawn Area." Turning her head forward, her eyes tracked a space between the two small brick walls on the right side of this sidewalk. "But melting would probably make others laugh at me… and I would never be able to persevere for the ultimate perfection."
The girl stumbles a bit.
"I'll take a little break in this park: I'm sure to find a public place where to drink a bit. I must take a sip: I'm so close at reaching my brother's office, I can't declare defeat in front of a passive obstacle!" Her eyebrows lowered a bit.
Her feet were wearing simple shoes, painted in yellow, with white laces. Her pace slightly increased. Turning to her right, the girl stepped on each stair step, as her head tilted down: they had signs of ashes and a chewed gum on the last stair step's top-right corner.
On her left, a wooden trashcan which had a bluish green plastic bag inside. In front of the girl, a light-brown road full of dust and micro rocks colored in the same color. Mirii kept walking forward, with her eyes standing in front of a fork in road: she turns to the left.
Now on the left, a wooden bench was on the road's left side with another wooden trashcan on its left. In front of the bench, a drinking fountain with a metal covered in very small portion of rustiness on the sides: stickers were attached around the fountain, including eyeball ones, a Splattershot-like weapon in yellow-black, a red blowfish-like creature and a black horseshoe crab with the words "Ammo Knights" written below.
Mirii smiles.
"A sip is all I need." She walks towards the drinking fountain. "It's truly something convenient to have the possibility of eliminating thirstiness, by just being kinder to the society."
Bending forward, Mirii's right thumb goes behind the fountain, pressing a button of the same color: Inkling water came out of it, as the girl's mouth catches it. Her throat kept waving a bit.
"Hey you!"
Mirii's ears rose: she lifts her posture, turning behind. An Inkling girl wearing a Backwards Cap which had a small red-white logo with the word "Zekko" written in the middle, a pink basketball jersey and shiny grey cleats. She was folding her arms, staring at Mirii with her eyebrows a bit down.
"Ink out of this park: this is Master Squid's territory." The girl lifts her mouth a bit, as her cheeks puffed a bit.
"This is actually a Public Park." Mirii rose her head, with her right hand on her right hip. "It's not"
"That's basic history lesson." Her right hand moves forward, waving up and down. "But we live in the Fresh Age now, not the beginning of the Mollusc Era!"
Smoke came out from Mirii's ears, as her eyes squeezed.
"I don't have time to waste with a kid." She passes the unknown girl, moving to the left.
"Aaaah, stop it right there!" The girl jumps in front of Mirii, bending down with her knees and opening her arms.
She lifts herself back, with her fists on her hips.
"What are you thinking, Squid? Turning away without even saying sorry?"
"Sorry for what?" Mirii lowers her head, frowning. "I just took a drink at that drinking fountain. I have no interest in invading Master Squid's territory."
"But you just did!" She shrugs, shaking her head. "Thank turfness I caught you before you would roam around, like it's your own turf."
Mirii grits her teeth, as a vein pops out from her forehead.
"Are you even paying attention at what I'm saying?!" Mirii rose her head back, with her fists clenching. "I have no interest in staying inside this park! I'm even leaving right in this very moment!"
"But you didn't say sorry…" The girl's eyes squeezed a bit, as she rose her mouth a bit. "You are looking so full of dryness, it makes me choking worse than staying in the opposite ink."
"Grrrrrr…" Mirii closes her eyes, as her teeth clenched even more. "You and your Turf Wars references are really starting to make me lose my patience…"
"Huh? You hate Turf Wars?!" The girl's eyes expanded, as her mouth opened wide. "That makes you so much of a loser, you know that?! Someone could just get over you and splat you"
"STOP IT!" Mirii pulls her own tentacles, as her face was frowning a lot. "DISAPPEAR FROM MY SIGHT RIGHT IN THIS INSTANT!"
"Yelling back at me?!" The girl stands on tiptoes, as she moves her right fist in the air, back and forth. "Alright, that's it! You are officially one of Master Squid's archenemies!"
The girl starts walking, with her face frowning a lot, as she passes Mirii which was staring back at her while still holding her own tentacles.
"Next time you put your feet inside this park, you are gonna get splatted!" She kept walking down the road, in a rapid pace.
Mirii snorted, as she rose her head and released her own tentacles.
"Wh-where this idiot even came from?! I can't believe parks might have such brainless people like this one." The girl starts walking forward, quickly turning to her right. "If anything, that proves how unsafe those parks are: where are the cops?!"
Mirii's head turns left and right, as she climbs the stairs.
"No one is around here… I'm sure it's because the temperature is really terrible right now."
The girl snorted.
"How it's possible that Summer is still around?! Why we can't just have a balanced temperature?! Those extremes really makes situations even worse by the minute…"
Her head turns to her left: at a building's entrance, Rof was looking forward as his left shoulder was leaning on the clear front door and his arms were folded.
"My brother?" The girl stops, as her mouth opened. "What he's doing outside?"
Mirii slightly turns her head to the right: an Inkling woman just turned to the left corner, walking behind a structure.
"… maybe I just found the answer." Mirii rose her head a bit.
Her eyes rested on the road: tilting her irises left and right, Mirii sprinted a bit as she passes the entire road and stops on the other sidewalk.
"Brother." She walks toward Rof, smiling.
"Eh?!" He turns behind, almost jumping, as his irises shrunk a bit. "Mirii?!"
"Yes." She nods, with her clasping hands down. "How are you, brother?"
"A… fine!" He laughs, as his left hand scratches the back of his head and his eyes were closed.
He was wearing a complete red suit, with a red tie. Mirii tilts her head upwards a bit.
"Who was that woman you were staring at?"
Suddenly, the man blushes a lot as his eyes almost popped out and his back bended forward.
"Eeeeeehhhmmmm… well…" Sweat covered his forehead. "She… sh-she's a client!" He grins with his eyes closed, as the blush kept staying on his cheeks.
"Uhm… I see…" Her eyes turned over the front door. "Brother, I have to talk with you. It's important."
"Ah, sure!" He walks in front of the door, with his right hand grasping the handle. "You can talk to me, Mirii! You know that I always have time to hear your words!" He smiles.
Mirii giggles with her mouth closed.
"I knew I could count on you, brother…" Her head tilts to her right, as her eyes closed. "I'm sure we are going to solve Project Neo in no time."
