Here, however, the first chapter contains an entirely new scene with entirely new characters. Furthermore, it would take seven more chapters until the actual retelling gets started in the present.

Like the original, Tari wishes to be as brave as her friend Meggy Spletzer. She may end up getting the chance when Meggy takes her to the Wild West to meer the latter's idol One-Shot Wren. But something seems fishy about all this...
You can read the story on Website/FanFictionDotNet [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14303743/1/SMG4-The-Lost-Splatoon-Idol-an-SMG4-adaptation here]], or on Website/DeviantArt [[https://www.deviantart.com/cvgwjames/gallery/90187550/smg4-the-lost-splatoon-idol here]].
!!''The Lost Splatoon Idol'' contains examples of:
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Downplayed with [[WebAnimation/AlexSpider Dark Squid]]. While this fic’s version of her isn’t an outright villain, it’s hard to call her a nice person, since she gets into a fight with Green over whether beans are tastier than potatoes.
* AdaptationDeviation: In Wren's flashbacks from ''Western Spaghetti'', Wren wasn't wanted at Inkura's celebration party. Chapter 7 contradicts this with people still inviting Wren. Of course, he could have also been an UnreliableNarrator then.
* AdaptationExpansion: We get to see much more of Wren's life in Inkopolis than what was shown in [=SMG4’s=] videos... very early in the story, in fact.
* BaitAndSwitch: At first, it seemed like Wren and his team are competing in Splatfest in the first chapter. Turns out to just be a Turf War.
* BreakingOldTrends: The author's previous [=SMG4=] retellings have at least one scene from what he's adapting in the first chapter, whether it's containing a change or two to the source material or played straight. Here, however, the first chapter contains an entirely new scene with entirely new characters. Furthermore, it would take seven more chapters until the actual retelling gets started in the present.
* CallBack: The [=KelpBuds=], one of the teams in ''[[WebAnimation/MeggysDestinyAnSMG4Movie Meggy's Destiny]]'', are competing in the Tower Control challenge near the beginning of the story.
* CallForward: During the Turf War at the beginning, Wren says "splat", which Meggy would later say in ''[[WebAnimation/SMG4MovieItsGottaBePerfect It’s Gotta Be Perfect]]'' before taking out [[Literature/NESGodzillaCreepypasta Red]].
* {{Foreshadowing}}:
** In the ending of Chapter 1, Dan warns Wren not to let the fame go to his head. Needless to say, he was on point.
** The theme for the Splatfest Wren would take on Inkura at is "Potatoes vs Green Beans". Potatoes would be a TrademarkFavoriteFood for those trapped in Wren's simulation. This also means the RunningGag of characters saying potatoes are "so good, you can eat them raw" shows up early in the story.

* SoreLoser: As you would expect, One-Shot Wren, when he loses to Inkura in the beginning of the fic. To his credit, he manages to keep his composure as best he can before his StartOfDarkness kicks in.
* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: On a news report, when talking about potatoes, Callie recites the "so good, you can eat them raw" phrase that Wren would have the victims of his simulation recite much later on.
