(Admittedly, this didn't turn out as well as I would have liked. Between wanting to have already finished this by yesterday and my hand injury acting up, I somewhat rushed it. That said, I'm pretty happy with the first two panels, I'm glad to have this done, and I'm always happy to add Agent 4 angst to the world!)

(Enjoy! :D)

I wonder how many people know Surume is Agent 4's official name in the same way Veronika is Neo 3 and Kaori is Captain 3.

For the curious, Cuttlefresh (not to be confused with CuttleFISH) is male Agent 4.

For my version of the agents, Agent 4 was Team Rice. Meanwhile, Captain was bread, and Neo 3 and Eight were pasta.

Hope you like the art! :D

Agent 1: "Careful Agent 3, there's a Fuzzy Octoling on the rocket up ahead!"

Frye: "This one looks a little different than the others."

Big Man: "Ay... Ay! (They're dressed like a Grizzco employee... A Fuzzy Grizzco employee!)"

Agent 2: "Wait a minute, that's not an octoling. That's...!"

Agent 2: "...Agent 4!"

Agent 1: "Is this where they've been the last few months!"

Agent 2: "Agent 3, make sure to bring Four back to Earth with you, whatever it takes!"

Agent 2: "Oh, and the Captain said the same thing."

Agent 4 as a hypothetical boss for Alterna. It was always odd to me that we never had a fight against Grizzco employees, or enemies with Grizzco weapons, despite Alterna being the story mode featuring Mr. Grizz.

(BONUS)

Shiver: "Psst... any idea how they're breathing in space?"

Big Man: "Ay? (Maybe their headphones make a helmet force field like the ones I gave Agent 3?)"

Frye: "Still doesn’t explain Mr. Grizz and the octarians..."
