"Yeesh, why does everyone gotta get so intimidating when making deals?" Kire shrugged. "Anyways, I'll work on your armor as soon as I'm done with my upgrades. In the meanwhile, I'll think about that warning."
Kire turned on his chair and allowed Helga to finish the remainder of his arm. He wiggled his fingers and performed a quick test before moving to the KABS cores and using the same technique he performed on Solaris's armor to the cores. Interactable holograms appeared before the man, and he typed out several things on a keyboard, also a hologram. While he worked, Helga's arms shifted from KABS to Kire's back and fired a little laser around the majority of it, mostly to burn away the layer of skin and peel it away from his mechanical components.
"Shall I begin adding the programs of the translocators and full body invisibility to your system, Master?"
"Yeah. By the way, how's the progress on Mioi's new toy?"
"It is coming out wonderfully. I am positive it will better suit Mioi's needs as well as bring out the best in her potential."
"Well, that's the idea..." Kire yawned loudly before turning his attention back to the several holograms branching out before him. "Guess I should hurry up and fix KABS, who knows when we will fight again... In the meanwhile, go and run a diagnostic on that kid's armor and see what is wrong with it. Probably nothin' serious..."
The mechanical parts that were upgrading Kire's arms shifted to Solaris's armor, lifting it up and gently placing it on a nearby workbench. The arms zapped away at some parts, careful not to ruin anything of the armor before running her full scan to see where the problem lied.

Jaz's eyes widen, the blush over her cheeks darkening as she listened intently on Junior's words. However, she felt safe in his arm, nuzzling her face on the side of his chest as she longed to for several years. A warm sensation filled her up now that she finally got her answer.
"You know Junior..." Jaz leaned her body closer to his. "I felt the same way for a long time. I wish I could've told you sooner."
She paused, staring intently at the stars as she carefully built up her courage. Her heart fluttered, and despite her outspoken personality, she had trouble admitting her true feelings to someone. After a minute, Jaz took a deep breath, assumingly trying to ease her nerves, and cleared her throat.
"You probably waited 25 years for me to say this..." Jaz turned her gaze from the stars directly to Junior. Her voice turned to a whisper while her green eyes locked with his own.
"I... I love you, Junior."
