Lucia: Pyroath

This is Lucia, the Gray Raven Captain. I'm at your service. Let's go, Commandant. We have much to do.

Frame adaptation enhanced. I'm good to go.

You always acknowledge my efforts. Thank you.

The Omega Core has been upgraded... It will last even longer now. I promise you, I'll never falter or let go of your hand until we reach the future we're fighting for.

Identify weaknesses and eliminate them.

We made the same choice, Commandant.

We made the same choice, Commandant.

It's important to put together the right team.

Gray Raven will lead this fight.

Mission complete. I've sent the final report to your terminal.

Don't worry about me. The Omega Core can keep me going indefinitely, no matter how long the fight is.

I can overcome anything with you and Gray Raven by my side, just like always.

I'll always be here. You can tell me anything.

The supplies have been prepared. And I've snuck in a bag of your favorite snacks. Ready to deploy.

I've organized the mission reports. Any new orders? Of course. Whatever you need, I'm on it.

Sometimes when we're fighting together, I find myself worrying that Liv will suddenly disappear... Not that I doubt her strength, of course. It's because she's so strong that she pushes herself too hard. And... well, you too, Commandant.

Commandant, do you mind checking my back? It feels a little... Commandant! I-it's nothing. Just a bit ticklish there.

The path you choose will lead everyone to a future desired by all of us in Gray Raven. I trust your decisions wholeheartedly... unless the future that you envision... doesn't have you in it.

My wish? To reclaim Earth, defeat the Punishing Virus, restore order, rebuild Froggie Studio, and master cooking... And on that day, you'll still be my commandant.

I sometimes try to imagine a peaceful world when I'm free. Bustling streets, friendly mechanoids, serene mountains, and quiet lakes... and you, standing under a tree, looking back at me.

Gray Raven may be hailed as heroes, but I know the hardship behind that acclaim. Someone must bear the burden, and I don't regret it. But... Commandant, no matter the praises, the pain you carry weighs heavy on me.

No matter what comes next, and no matter where I am... the memories we've shared will forever be a part of me.

Having stood by your side for so long, I've forgotten that some words need to be said out loud. Of course, if you don't want to respond, please don't feel pressured... You mean more to me, than anyone in the world. Commandant... I love you.

Commandant...! I-I'm alright. I just had a bad dream... It had to be just a dream.

I know you turn heads, Commandant... and... romantic proclamations aren't my strong suit. But to hear me repeat over and over again, that I'll always be by your side no matter what... Do you find it... somewhat tiring?

It's the least I can do, Commandant.

Mission reports and pre-battle preparations are complete. Let me share more of your burden.

There's only one of you. You're irreplaceable.

I promise to keep you safe until my very last breath.

My heart yearns to share the same world, and to spend time with you.

You are my commandant, and your well-being is my deepest concern.

No matter what happens, Gray Raven will always reunite. That is my promise.

I once believed my devotion to Gray Raven and to you couldn't be any stronger, but it continues to deepen with each passing day... I know it will only grow and never fade away.

A gift for me? Thank you, Commandant.

I really like it. This is more than just a gift to me.

If only emotions could be as easily connected as the M.I.N.D.

Tell me more. Whatever it is, I want to hear it all.

Oh, this list? It's a list of "all the things the commandant wants." I'll gladly give you everything, however long it takes.

I've kept every gift you've given me, and they've become quite a collection over time. The lounge lockers are hardly big enough, so some of my daily necessities have been put in storage... What about you? Do you still have the things I've given you?

Nothing matters more than having you by my side now. That's all that truly matters... Commandant.

Gifts and vows are lovely, but your presence is the greatest treasure. Let's make a promise, a promise that we'll never be apart.

Commandant, there are a few missions here that require your confirmation... Oh, are you asleep? I'll wait here for a bit.

Rest well, Commandant. I'll be here.

You're free today, that's rare. Do you want to go for a walk together in the business district? There are a few shops with discount events where couples can enjoy half-price deals.

Commandant... Commandant? Oh, I'm sorry, I was just so nervous.

Looks like you're finished. Huh? Sure... Just lean on me... and sleep, Commandant.

Rest is crucial for your health and for mission effectiveness. Commandant, it's time to take a break.

Commandant? I'm not tired, but you should get some rest.

Commandant, you carry such a heavy burden. Remember, we're in this together. No battle is too big when we face it side by side.

If you keep pushing yourself, I might have to resort to homemade tonic soup. Just kidding. Here's some tea. Close your eyes and rest for a bit.

Does that future you envision include you, the one I hold so dear, Commandant?

Good morning, Commandant. Everything's set, and we're ready to proceed.

Good morning. Your schedule for today is set, supplies are in the preparation room, and breakfast is served on the table... What's with that look?

Lee sent a message about your sleep schedule. So starting tonight, I'll... Wait, how did he know you pulled an all-nighter?

When I arrived, Liv asked me to discreetly confiscate those two bags of treats you stashed. I put them in the box behind your seat.

Welcome back, Commandant. Did you sleep well? No urgent missions today. Would you like to take a walk?

Welcome back, Commandant. I was just about to wake you.

Let me look into your eyes again, Commandant, until all the starlight fades and I'm the only thing you see.

Good morning, Commandant. I hope that days like this, when we share each other's company, will continue for a long time. We won't rest until we find a solution, even if time fractures, and the world seems bleak.

I'm done waiting for you. If you keep disappearing, I will find you, even if I have to break free... from time itself.

Commandant! Watch out! Get behind me! Phew, close one.

My frame works perfectly so far. Care to join me for a stroll in the air as a little test?

Is something wrong with Babylonia's balance system?

Can I touch you like that too, Commandant?

Commandant? You scared me. I thought something was wrong.

You like touching me like that? Well... do you want me to come closer?

Take a break. You've done all you can. Is there something I can do for you?

Our promise... is victory.

Raven's light!

Severed night!

Let the lotus bloom!

Gather, Sunblaze!

Rise and fly high!

Beyond the mist and the abyss!

Ahem

You fall back first...!

We'll meet again...

Let's eliminate the problem.

Let's regroup!

Keep fighting. Till suffering's grip loosens its hold.
