After a bit of static a short messsge would come in on the radio "Hello? This is Agent 3 of the New Squidbeak Splatoon does anyone copy? I repeat this is Agent 3 of New Squidbeak Splatoon do you copy?" It seems to be coming from the same frequency as when the message came in about a sick inkling in Ammo Knights... was someone seeking them out this time? -@asknewthree

Shelby sips on a cup of coffee while tuning the radio dials. Suddenly a static message pops through, making Shelby squint carefully as the voice becomes clear. He presses a button on his mic and leans in.

"This is CSS Headquarters, can you hear us? This is CSS Headquarters, can you hear us?"

[asktheblueidiot]

Wait... we match! :] -@asknewthree

We what? 0u0

*A small ding can be heard from the computer as a new message comes up... It's written in Octarian* "This is Agent 3 of the NSS also known as the New Squidbeak Splatoon reporting from Alterna- There are still no signs of Agent 8 anywhere I have already checked most of the islands- I am about to start searching the kettles- Has anyone else of the NSS or affiliated found anything?"

*Soon after another message would come up it was the same message again but in Inkling- the language also seemed a bit more broken as if they weren't a native speaker of the language... It looked like this message was intended for a large range of people but definitely not them*

-@asknewthree

The message caught Pyro's attention from dozing off. They squint at the message in their dark office room.

"Shelby come here."

"Hm? Is it another weird message? We've been getting odd signals lately..." Shelby squints at the screen. "I'd still put this in the database for later inspection."

"Agent 8? NSS?? Alterna???"

"This wasn't sent by someone from here... I'd have to do more research on this one."

*Three would run up to Sheldon- somewhat clean of the ink and in their hero gear... it was strange just seeing them in uniform and out in the open- the only thing that was wrong with their uniform was that little buddy wasn't riding in their backpack* "I knew something was up... Sheldon- your place is full of weapons and right in the middle of the square- you think we could set this up as a safe zone? I can stand guard outside-" -@asknewthree

Sheldon nods, not a trace of his usual chatty, enthusiastic demeanor remaining. "That was my plan. There's a lot of space, and I can help defend a bit, I just only have so much ink I can use."

[askammoknights]

*Once Sheldon was off the stage three would try to weave through the crowds to find him- Little Buddy tagging along being them- Three would seem out of breath when they started talking...* "Shell! Something is up with Buddy- I'm wondering if it has something to do with that... big-run business... did you catch anything on the Grizzco frequency?" -@asknewthree

"Hm?" Sheldon turns to face the two of them, eyeing the salmonid. Oh, so they can bring him in and he can't bring his prop gun, he sees how it is.

...No, no, this actually seems serious. He frowns, glancing around and leaning in so others won't overhear. "I haven't heard anythingn about that whole Big Run thing since--I've been scanning for the frequency, but it's more well-hidden than I thought. Makes sense, whoever's running this thing isn't going to be careless with their information..."

[askammoknights]

"Oh shit- I think I know what they mean... I heard some rumors that grizzco could be planning something for splatoween from the NSS... but yet again it's just rumors" - @asknewthree

"What?!"

Sheldon glances around, as if making sure no one's listening, before leaning closer to them.

"But how? I thought the whole organization was headless now. I don't know how they're still running, much less planning...whatever this might be."

[askammoknights]

Release the glow flies in grizzco >:] -@asknewthree

"...As much as I'd love to stick it to those guys--how are they still operating?!--that'd get a bunch of cephalings who don't deserve it in the crossfire."

[askammoknights]

*Holds you gently like hamburger*

-@asknewthree

...Hm.

While he still doesn't like it, at least someone around here is considerate.
