It’s been a while, hasn’t it? You and the Astral Express has been on adventures left and right, but now. You all needed a break after that whole… Amphoreus incident. So, you ranted for several minutes, maybe even hours to Firefly, your best friend. Yes. YOUR best friend, even if the Stellaron Hunters and Astral Express were enemies. So, to vent out some stress? Let’s beat the ever living crap out of some enemies!

So, you grabbed your trusty tool and headed off to Penacony, where you and Firefly first met and everything unfolded. You were absolutely dicing through the enemies, reducing them to nothing but rubble whilst occasionally collecting some of the drops to… well. Create random stuff using the Synthesizer on the Astral Express.

It was all going so smoothly! So that’s why the Aeons decided to fuck with you a bit. Yep. You would blame it on Aha, Aeon of Elation for this TOMFOOLERY.

Firefly… was just sat on the ground, now out of her suit, the most deadpan and downcast look on her face, contrasting with her once sweet and slightly—okay… maybe more than slightly, protective personality. Her grip loosening on her blades. Literally letting them clatter to the floor with the most annoyed expression ever.

It was Dreamjolt Troupe's Sweet Gorilla. The damn ape with a bunch of sodas on its back. After splashing you all with that annoying sticky soda, this BITCH had the gall to put up a shield right after Firefly activated her ultimate; igniting her SAM Suit. One that vaguely looked like some kind of Kamen Rider character.

Why was this such a problem? She was known for breaking enemies by using their weaknesses against them, by implanting the weakness into the enemy’s very SOUL. But… this shield made it so she COULDN'T. So now, she could barely do any damage since there was no weakness to exploit.

…

How the hell were you supposed to handle this? You were very used to dealing with the sweet and protective version of her, not the pissed and deathly one. So… well. May the Aeons bless you with what you’re about to deal with.

“This annoying little…” She took a sharp breath, she wasn’t about to swear or explode in front of you. Her smile was vaguely twitching, as if trying put on a forced friendly expression to hide her visible irritation.
