It was another day at Marooner’s Bay. The Undaunted Guardian stood at the bow, looking up into the sky. That familiar whir of helicopter propellers sounded as the octoling jumped back down to the boat.
“Hi, Undaunted Guardian of Marooner’s Bay!” the octoling said, in a sing-songy voice.
“..Hi.”
“Sooo.. I was thinking we needed a way to communicate outside of me stealing a helicopter everytime I wanted to see you!”
“I suppose that is inconvenient for all parties involved.”
“Yes! Not to mention, Mr. Grizz is starting to get suspicious. So... I got you a Sea-Cucumber phone!”
The octoling handed over this so-called “Sea-Cucumber phone” to The Undaunted Guardian.
“I’ve already got you added as a contact so we can text whenever, & I also signed you up for SplatNet!! I hope you like it!” the octoling grinned.
The Undaunted Guardian held the Sea-Cucumber phone in her hand, looking at it. She had absolutely no idea how to feel about this.
“This is.. great.” she said. “Thank you.”
“Of course!! Talk to you later!!”
The octoling shifted into octopus form, jumping back into the helicopter. The Undaunted Guardian of Marooner’s Bay opened up her new Sea-Cucumber phone, inspecting it.
“..Interesting.” she sighed. “They really are trying, aren’t they?”
