Monday: [about a girimehkala] He has pasties!
Me:
Me:

Me:
Me:

Me: ...thanks

Monday: Pasties mean you're rebellious!

Restoring Haru's SP with sodas makes me think of the PT sitting in a circle around her with ten cans of soda on the saferoom table, chanting: "CHUG CHUG CHUG"

it's a hazing ritual. everyone has gone through it

okay, this grappling hook sequence is good

Monday: Those pasties look like metal. I don't think they're on in the traditional sense. Think they could be piercings?

and now they're talking about nipple piercings

Oh, man, the airlock puzzle is so much easier in Royal

SO MUCH EASIER

Me: Oh, I can't order any more shady commodities until it comes? Stupid poopoo dumb Tanaka.

THEY'RE SO CLOSE

There's a reason why Haru's fiancee didn't look any different as a cognition of her father's...

It's because he knows exactly what kind of man Sugimura is and sold Haru to him anyway

Futaba....nooooo....

[this conversation will be important later!]

It's funny how Yusuke's back is to Futaba like he's afraid she's going to steal his snacks

D: She tried to steal his lobsters, man

Yusuke: Try to recall your anger. It will guide you in the right direction.

Big oof. He of all people would know what Haru feels like

Akechi, please shoot Pompous Customer in the head

Man, even though Cognitive Haru didn't start out as a robot, she still ended up as one

also, hey akechi

I can see how the Okumura boss fight would be difficult without the right party set up. I got lucky in that I did have the ideal party set up, but without it, yeah...

Shut the fuck up Yaldy

fuck you and your game

Ren is getting IDEAS from talking to Maruki

"Heavy breathing? Pervert."
REN

REN WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS YOU NASTY CRIMEBOY

Even as Maruki's basically calling Ren and the Metaverse out, Ren's still denying it.

Shibusawa has a portrait...suspicious!

Ren can say it's complicated when asked what he is to Maruki... Ren please. do something about your thing for older people that doesn't involve actually dating them

Shibusawa: Can you eat all that food?
Ren: I've beaten every Big Bang challenge

Shibusawa: Hey, keep an eye on this guy for me, all right?
Ren: I'm 16/17

Why does Ren refer to his and Maruki's deal as a strong bond of friendship when he doesn't even talk about Ryuji that way?
