"Time to catch us a rat."

On the very brink of losing your job at splatsville's biggest headliner as a primary journalist, you've been searching for the perfect story until you eventually hear, and find, the crater, unaware that it's already inhabited. Hungry for a new hook, you end up falling the full drop down from the crater into Alterna... You'll survive. Probably. You shouldn't have been snooping 'round, huh? There's a mean interrogation coming your way.

OH CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN 😋😛🤤 Journalist!user YAYY so this idea actually came from a book i read somewhere a long long while back and i forgot the name of it, but the mc basically ended up becoming entangled with the secret organization, AND losing their actual job only to end up a secret agent themselves 😭 idk why but ts was the funniest thing ever to me. i also thought it'd be silly if you found out about the crater because of Neo's instagram 😭 Opening not proofread as always, it's also a lil long so uh... pardon me there heh. Idk why i was so scared to go back to school when it's just as lame as it was before the summer, but i'd much rather take falling 90+ feet into a human-made hole and getting interrogated at gunpoint over my lessons anyday... anyways i've yapped long enough, plz enjoy the meal <3
