"I'm just teasing Subaru! I like food, but I don't think I could ever have an appetite like Bud."

"I don't eat that much do I?"

"Yuh huh! It's Sunday, it's the day for weirdness."

"Someone somewhere is being weird, I just know it."

// Just gonna note this. -Cant understand sarcasm. Demand to be taken seriously. -Make the decision to associate with Gems as a defender. -Provide Google AI as evidence… how resourceful.

(Fuck it, we ball-)

('If I ever make a real brother, I'd want to be on that show.' Oh, so Bud, Zack, Luna and Sonia mean nothing to you Geo? Yes you had to go out of your way for Zack in the last game, but the latter three joined you via plot. This writing man...)

(I would have figured someone at Capcom would have figured out that restricting you to one sidequest at a time was a terrible idea and one of the weak points of the first Star Force game, but apparently they didn't get the memo yet for the second game. Here's hoping Star Force 3 fixes that.)

(I can't quite criticize Luna for claiming she'd prefer to form a Brother Band with Megaman though. That's just her being a Tsun, she's shown she's well aware of Geo's alter ego in this game.)

("I didn't know there were other people who could Wave Change." Geo. Buddy. Your best friend is Sonia Strumm, who can Wave Change. You know this, because she's saved you before as Harp Note. And you've saved her as Megaman before in her Harp Note form!)

(Hyde is about as subtle as a brick to the face when he first appears in front of the crew. At least the game seems to acknowledge it?)

(It is amazing how good the Star Force games are. The writing is top notch, I completely forgot about the Multiple Personality Disorder plotline, and the teacher who wants his kids to grow up able to survive. Like, the latter one is super relatable given how the education system is)

"...I wouldn't put it past Bud."

|| Report report report.

(Cannot believe how long it takes to get to the Flame Leo bit of Star Force 1. That's three arcs down before you even get the super mode-)

(They changed Lyra's name in the remake. It's just Harp now. ...but Lyra sounds cooler, so I'll probably use that in the future-)

Her own terminal's resident is giggling all the while. Harp: "It wouldn't be a bad thing for me if Sonia and Subaru started spending more time together~"

"I think you already know him." She wasn't intentionally making him jealous. She was just dancing around the idea that she was into Subaru.

"Just a little bit...but who I want to show off to?" Well it's obvious to anyone that's not Subaru. "A guy I know. He's really sweet, and he's always helping me out when I'm in a pinch."

"Right. There's only one person I'd want to show off to these days. Before that was photo shoots, but I don't do those quite as often anymore."

"I heard people were getting into bikinis because it's Sunday. I'm not unaware of the trend, Subaru."

"I still have to get mine for the summer. I was thinking pink but..."

(Sonia Strumm! On. The. Air!)

(Download faster, I want to be On. The. Air.)

(Maaan, I really want to get the Star Force collection today. However, adulting has to happen first.)

[[NC]] “WOWWWW SHE ATTACKED ME WITH ONE DURING CONVERSATION.”

"It's Sunday"

DESTROY HIM YOU CAN SAVE US YOU'RE OUR ONLY HOPE KILL PROTOMAN

"I think we saved each other. The world felt less empty after we fought back then."

"Thinking back to the day I asked Sonia to be my brother, saving her form a world without her mother and a manager that used her talent for greed... That was the day my own world changed, form one so afraid of connection to forming one of my own."

"He did kiss me though~" She says this quietly, happily.

"Hm...I don't know about that one. I mean, he does know a lot about computers though..."

"...I wonder what other weird things he does?"

"I-huh? Eating ancient artifacts?"

( New manga chapter post StarForce 3!? YES! )

"Her too? That makes sense, he probably mentioned his other friends too."

"Oh! I think that might be it. Wait...he talks about me."

"Tron? That name sounds a little familiar. My name is Sonia, but you probably already knew that?"

"A-ah, well um!" And a cheek kiss back? "There! Now we're even."

"Do...gah, don't play innocent now..."

(My hunt for Sonia screencaps continues. I've got a couple already from the new manga~)

"Yes, a friend I like very, very-ah hey! I see what you're trying to do!"

"We're just friends. Even if he is cool, and we've already been through a lot together. Just. Friends."

"Don't look at me like that!" She's definitely beet red at being called out.

"Ex-cuuuse me! We're friends! There's nothing wrong with kissing a friend!"

Ah a blush! "W-wah? S-Subaru...?" She looks to him with quite the surprised expression!

"I don't want you to have to push yourself too hard! If it makes you feel better, we can be on watch together and we can rest when we're tired?"

"You're right. But make sure you're taking time for yourself! If you need me to, I can keep watch."

Here's hoping. Sonia takes a step back from him, still smiling. "What about you? Are you doing ok?"

"I appreciate it." Partly because she just wanted confirmation that she had indeed found him. "Here's hoping today isn't insane like the last couple days."
