It wasn’t odd for Dominic to think of finding his friend Nova. Sure, it’s probably been a week or so since he last hung out with her, but she had some kind of spell over him. It was like the world would stop spinning and time stopped when he was with her. He could only think of how happy she really made him unlike others. He pushed away his feelings so deep and so far away, but it was hard for him to truly ignore them when he wasn’t around her. As he drove up to her place, he parked his motorcycle with a deep breath before removing his helmet and propping it under his arm before he walked up to her door. He paused for a second before knocking. “Nove, it’s me, open up!”
This one was the most difficult to do, since Splatoon 2 is still away and we don’t know the story or anything.
Basically, @wonder-meathead‘s Neo Squid Sisters are the celebrities and the hot topic now! I guessed that @inkstriker-fynn‘s Nova is a tiny bit younger than them, but still around the same age. Paige is younger than any of the Gen 2 squids that we know of so far.
I would love to include more Gen2 squids in here, but I don’t how or when they fit in this timeline.
A Gen2 Fanfic featuring Nova Sparks ( @inkstriker-fynn ) and Paige Marchant! These pair get into trouble after Paige brings in a new weapon for Turf Wars!
More after the Read More!
It is a nice cold afternoon in the Sparks household, where Fynn, Eimie and Nova lived. Eimie just finished making dinner for her two favourite squids in the world. As usual, Fynn congratulated Eimie for the delicious food and Nova ate quickly and nearly choked on his food. He was having a sudden burst of energy this time.
As soon as Nova finished, he stood up and took his dishes back to the kitchen. “Alright ma’! I am going to Inkopolis Square real quick!” He said, putting his jacket and scarf on.
“Wha-? This late..? I mean, sure go ahead..! But why this late? Are you meeting up with someone?” Eimie asked as she continued eating slowly.
Nova nodded. “Yup! Paige is waiting for me there! She didn’t told me what for, but I can’t leave my cousin hangin’, right?” He said, grabbing his N-Zap 83.
“Oh, right.. well take care and be careful, eh? Make sure to text me once you are with Paige, okay?” Eimie finished eating her food. Nova nodded and gave both his parents a quick peck on the cheek and he ran off.
It wasn’t that dark, but it was still pretty late. Paige waited outside the café on Inkopolis Square. Nova rushed through the dark streets to get there in time.
“Huff.. S-Sorry Paige... am I late?” He said as he stopped in his tracks and knelt down to catch his breath. He took this few minutes of resting to also text his mom that he had arrived with Paige.
“Nah.. On time, as always! Did Aunt Eimie or Uncle Fynn ask you about our meeting here?” Paige, a 14-year old squid girl and daughter of one of the Marchant siblings, rested her back against the wall.
“Nu-uh.. Why should they? Why do you need me here?” Nova asked as he stood up and looked at Paige.
“Alright, follow me. Trust me on this one, we will be the kings of Turf War!” Paige said as she dragged Nova to the lobby. “Just promise you won’t tell mom or dad, yeah? I mean, we won’t get into trouble or anything.. but you know how they can be with the whole ‘Advanced’ weapons and stuff...” She said as they were quickly matched up on a 4v4 Turf War.
“Hm? Advanced weapon? What are you talking abo-” Nova asked as his statement was interrupted with the surprise that Paige just brought up. She was holding a pair of brand new Splat Dualies in her hands. Nova slowly went ahead to hold one.
“Ta-Da~!” Paige said proudly, suddenly feeling like the most important squid in the whole lobby. “Aren’t these beauties, like, tots awesome?!” She said, loudly.
Meanwhile, Nova examined them carefully and now held both, one in each hand. “Maaaaaaaaan! These are awesome! How did you even get these? I mean, did you trained up to reach the level required to buy these?” He asked, trying to contain even more questions.
“Ha! As if! I found them in my parents’ closet and I took them! That’s why I asked you to keep this whole meeting as a secret, yeah? They won’t allow me to have the Dualies until I am 16..! That’s Bullsquit!”
Nova, now realizing that what she was doing was wrong, quickly handed the guns back to Paige. “Oh damn..! Paige.. you don’t have the required level to use these! You could get in trouble..!” Nova tried explaining, but Paige had stopped listening to him. Now, they were being taken to the stage they would Turf in.
Paige and Nova both spawned on the green team. Nova kept the N-Zap close to him, while Paige played around with the Dualies, making wacky poses.
“Alright, cousin. Let’s give it our all, yeah?” Paige got ready and was ready to take off. Nova nodded and suddenly the team was off! Paige quickly inking the base and Nova following behind her.
Just a few seconds in, and Paige’s tentacles started glowing quickly. “Oohhh! I have my special ready! Nova, to me! Quick!” She said as she glanced around her surroundings making sure they were in the clear. Nova rushed next to Paige.
“Watch this!” Paige took Nova’s hand and suddenly, they were both in the air, being propelled by a clunky big Ink Jetpack. Paige was also now holding a huge blaster in her hand. “Shoot everyone! Quick!”
Nova was impressed by Paige’s technique, although he thought that what they were doing was breaking a few rules. He didn’t care this time and started shooting everywhere. He was having the time of his life up there in the air.
After a few seconds, the Ink Jet broke and the two squids were sent back to where they first took off. “Neat! That was cool!” Nova cheered.
The three minutes of the turf war were up, and all 8 squids were taken back to the lobby to see their results.
Before a winner was announced, a few squids from the opposite team stepped up, confronting Paige. “Hey! What you did with the Ink Jet is illegal! Also, you don’t have the required level to have those weapons!”
Paige stepped back. “Oh yeah?! How about you MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS! BUZZ OFF, YEAH?” Paige wasn’t holding back. Meanwhile, Nova stepped back too. He didn’t want any trouble tonight. All these screaming and yelling caused the authorities to step in. As soon as they approached, Paige quickly held Nova’s hand. “RUN!”
Paige dropped a suction bomb and ran away with Nova. The explosion of ink caused the other squids to get distracted as they found a place to cover from the burst. By then, Paige and Nova were long gone.
“Whew!! That was close, eh? I wish I could turf a few more matches.. but I guess I won’t be coming back with these Dualies until I level up. Whaddaya think, cousin?” Paige said as she let go of Nova’s hand. She guessed that probably he would be able to run by himself.
“W-Well... I think we should never... ever come back! They will recognize us!” Nova held hiz N-Zap tight, trying to not think of what would’ve happen if they got caught.
“Haaaha! Come on, fam! They won’t do anything to us! Now let’s get you home, yeah?” Without waiting for an answer, Paige started walking away. Nova simply followed.
Once there, Nova opened the door, instantly Eimie greeted both squid kids with a huge grin and a tight hug to Nova. “Heya! You two are back! Did you all have fun?” Eimie asked. Nova was about to answer, but Paige was first to talk.
“Yeah, auntie! We both had a blast at the Turfs! Nova even promised me to go back tomorrow, right cus’?” Paige said eagerly and smiling wide. Nova couldn’t say no, since he actually did had a lot of fun at the turfs with his cousin.
“Heh! Yeah we did! We will be back on action! By the way, where is papa?” Nova asked as he tried to free himself from her mother’s tight hug. He kinda got embarassed when she was so affectionate in front of others, but he didn’t complained.
“Your dad is already asleep. You know, he works early tomorrow and stuff. You should also go to bed. Paige, need a ride home? Or we could call Ei-” She then was interrupted by Paige.
“Nah nah Auntie! I am fine! I already called home, I told them I was on my way. Anyway, night auntie! Night Nova! See ya all tomorrow, yeah?” She said as she hugged Eimie and Nova good-bye. She then was on her way home.
Nova chuckled, as she waved her younger cousin goodbye.
Fynn - He wears contact lenses. Without them, he could barely see from 100 yards away. That’s why he carries his prescription retro specs with him. As long as he has plenty of spares.
Nova - Nova has an interest in painting. His art teacher, Maye lends him her old Octobrush for some intense turf battling.
Luna - Luna’s first musical instrument when she was a child was the ocarina. She started playing it until she switched to the guitar.
“You’re my prince from the fairy tale.” (Nova i'm squealing alreayd Bye)
“You’re my prince from the fairy tale.”
“You really think so?” Henry asked in slight surprise, his heart leaping in his chest at the comparison. “Yes, of course I do,” Nova giggled, looking up at him from where her head rest on his shoulder. “No one has ever treated me the way you have before, Henry. You’re my true Prince Charming.” Henry flushed lightly, growing overjoyed by the second. While he had always been a fan of history, he had never been able to tear his eyes away from a wonderful fantasy story either. And growing up he had always seen himself becoming one of those men who lived for others and being a true prince to a woman one day. He didn’t like to think of it in the cliche sense of being the strong hero saving a damsel in distress, no- but he liked the idea of brightening someone’s day- or life, for that matter, with the love he could offer them. So for Nova to confirm his wishes with such a simple sentence- he couldn’t explain how deeply it resounded in him. “And I will be for as long as you want me to,” he assured her, unable to wipe the smile off of his face.

[text]: You’re not going to believe this. I was walking back to my place after I grabbed coffee right? I accidentally bumped into someone in the middle of my walk and spilled my coffee ON THEM. I felt so bad and then I realized it was ELTON JOHN. I’m here feeling like the biggest idiot on the planet and I’m trying to apologize and he’s really nice and I offer to grab some napkins from this cafe next to us. Thankfully no one, at this point, has noticed I’m with coffee-covered Elton John. I grab napkins and offer them to him when he asks my name, clearly just trying to be nice because I look so stupid. When he heard my name he seemed to recognize it and then suddenly he’s asking me about my work and we’re talking and basically I’m going to be designing a new house for Elton John.

Henry slammed his book shut, frustrated by his inability to concentrate on the words littering its pages. Everything had gone topsy turvy in his head since the morning before, and now everything seemed at odds with him. Even the things he loved. There had been a reason he never bothered with women, and now he was paying the price for betraying himself. It was irritating and vexing, something Henry rarely experienced unless it was related to design frustrations. The front door of his place clicked, alerting someone was coming in. It must have been Nova, she had a key to his place. Henry tossed the book aside, his face solemn still, as he got up from the sofa and watched the petite blonde enter. “Hey,” he said, although it barely held its usual enthusiasm regarding Nova.
