Dialogues[]
Talk to Billy[]
- (Idle)
- Billy: Manager! Are you free?
- (Talk to Billy)
- Billy: Manager! Are you free? I got some massive news for you!
Did Nicole give you a raise?
Did you land a role on the Starlight Knights?- Billy: I wish... It's Godfinger. They got a new game in called "Bizarre Brigade," and they're running a promo event for it!
- Which Godfinger?
- Billy: The Godfinger, right outside your store! I can't hold on. I'm going over now! You should also check things out when you're free, Manager!
Go to Godfinger Arcade[]
- (Idle)
- Billy: Just say the word, Manager!
- (Talk to Billy)
- Billy: I knew you'd be stopping by. No chance a hardcore gamer like us would miss out on a new game!
- What are we waiting for!
- Alright, let's get inside.
- Billy: Hang on, before we go in — I've got something to get off my chest! It's about that new game.
- Asha: About that, our new game, the "Bizarre Brigade," was developed in-house here at Godfinger and to pump up our promo for it, the lead developer wanted to make it a time-limited event.]
- Asha: Over the next three days, whoever gets the highest score on the "Bizarre Brigade" will get the chance to have an in-game character designed after them — and become a new, playable character in the game.
- Billy: Yeah, that's it! Manager, do you know what this means?
- Does it mean I can go inside and play now?
- What does it mean?
- Billy: If you win the first place, you could put Monica in the game! And—And—And then! We could! Go adventurin' with Monica!
- Asha: Hold on! I should have said earlier that only the first-place winner can be featured in the game. If the Monica you're talking about is the same person I'm thinking of, Godfinger doesn't have the rights to use her likeness.
- Billy: Okay, well, if I can only put myself in the game, then I'll have to fall back on Plan B...
- Billy: ...And dress up as Monica!
- It never ends!
- Did I hear you right?
- Billy: The characters look pretty pixelated, judging from the promo shots. So long as I can see Monica's classic gown and golden curls, that's good enough for me!
- Asha: Uhh... Is that even legal? The director never said you couldn't... I mean, I guess so...?
- Billy: Awesome! Manager, you gotta help me out here, too! C'mon, Manager! It's a big ask, but it's once-in-a-lifetime!
- You sound like Nicole!
- No way! I'm not dressing up like Monica!
- Billy: Relax, I'll handle dressing up as Monica! Let's join together. With both of us in the game, we double our chances of winning. We just need one of us to get the highest score! Please help me out!
Complete the challenges of Bizarre Brigade[]
- (Idle)
- Billy: Please! Manager!
- (Talk to Asha and Billy)
- Asha: When you're ready, come inside and give "Bizarre Brigade" a try. Maybe you'll be the winner.
- Billy: Please, Manager! Monica the Companion is counting on you here!
- Asha: Congrats! I just checked the leaderboard and you have the highest score.
- Billy: Alright! You sure are a worthy match for none other than Billy Kid! You're the only one that could manage that kind of score in all of New Eridu!
- Asha: This is totally all thanks to (WiseWise /
BelleBelle) and (hishis / herher) hard work, but you? After losing three games in a row, you just stood behind him, cheering him on. - Asha: So then, (WiseWise /
BelleBelle): Are you sure you want to transfer your right to a custom character over to your friend here? The rules might allow it, but you're the one who got the score... - Yup. I'm sure. Give it to Billy
- Billy: You're awesome, Manager! Leave the rest up to me and I'll make sure they recreate the Classic Monica in the game!
- So who do you plan on getting to play Monica?
- Billy: Uh... I'll try and rope one of us Cunning Hares into it, and if that doesn't work... I'll do it! No chance I'm wasting this opportunity that you've worked so hard on gettin' for me!
- It really does never end...
- Can we skip straight to the part where "that doesn't work"?
- Asha: Wait up, it's only day one of the event. Are you already planning on claiming the first prize? Someone might beat you tomorrow, so why don't you come back then and check out the scoreboard~
- (Idle)
- Asha: Your move, punk.
- Billy:Anyway, thanks a bunch, Manager!
- (Talk to Billy again, optional)
- Billy: Don't worry, Manager. I don't think anyone's going to beat you in the next three days. I'll head back soon and pick up some cosplay clothes!
- We'll see.
- Looking forward to this reinterpretation of a classic, then.
Spend a day in New Eridu[]
Check the message from Billy[]
Manager! What do you think about me wearing this to go claim the prize at Godfinger?
REPLYYou call that "Classic Monica"?
Is Monica also a Starlight Knight?
No, I changed my mind. After watching the Starlight Knights' final battle collection last night, my pistons were poppin' so hard I thought they'd bust right out!
I mean I still like Monica, but now I love the Starlight Knights even more!
So I was planning on dressing up as a Starlight Knight to claim the prize. The righteous Starlight Knights are the ones who'd make the best companions!
REPLYBack to the copyright issue...
So Asha already agreed?
Oh yeah... I forgot to ask Asha about copyright stuff... Manager, would you mind asking for me? Please!
Go to Godfinger Arcade[]
- (Idle)
- Jonah: We are the champions!
- Roy: Awesome!
- (Talk to Jonah and Roy)
- Jonah: Victory! We are the champions! We're going to be characters in "Bizarre Brigade"!
- Who's top of the leaderboard right now?
- Don't tell me there's a new leader?
- Roy: Ten minutes ago, it belonged to someone called (Proxy) — but now it's ours! Heehee, I never dreamed I'd get my very own character skin, at this tender age~
- So who are you planning on putting in-game?
- Roy: Uh, oh yeah. There's two of us... And only one of us can go inside the game, right? ... Jonah! What did you just say on the sly to Assha — I mean, Asha?! I know you — you were going behind my back to put yourself in there!
- Jonah: What are you talking about? What do you take me for?! We both worked hard to secure the top score, me doing the joystick while you tapped the button. Our teamwork was absolutely seamless and we can't just leave one of us out!
- Jonah: So that's why I asked Assha — I mean, Asha, to see if both of us could go inside the game! And if that's not allowed, I'll just give up. I'm not gonna go behind your back to steal any prizes!
- Roy: Jonah... You... I'm sorry. I was being a real stinker there... I'm touched... *sniff* Who's cutting onions...
- So you can apply to get TWO character skins put in-game.
- Jonah: Yeah! I specifically picked out this photo of us two playing together as a reference point — so this way, our seamless teamwork can be reflected in the game!
- Roy: Which photo is that? Don't tell me you got Asha to snipe a photo of me while we were playing? Oh Jonah... I'm so touched. I hope for our whole lives that we can be...
- Jonah: Nah, it's just a candid shot from last week's basketball practice. Remember? We ran this perfect break through their defensive line, and I scored with a cool layup!
- Roy: Mmm-hmm, I remember. You looked cool, sure... But... Ahhh, no no, not that photo! You gave that photo to Asha?! I'm gonna kill you!
- Jonah: She was really pleased and said she'd definitely ask the director to try their best at recreating that scene from the photo.
- Roy: Ahhh! No no no, I refuse! Get it back! You're the only cool one in that layup pic... I was busy tripping over my own pants so badly that I didn't just fall over, but also totally embarrassed myself by ripping them!
- Jonah: It's not that embarrassing... And it wasn't even your butt, really, because you had boxers on underneath, right? Those ones with the stars on them.
- Roy: Ahhh, stop talking, now! No way! There's no chance this is ever getting in the game, even if I have to make an alt account and steal back the first place!
- Jonah: I don't mean to offend you, Roy, but you oughta know by now that you playing solo could never surpass the miracle created by our perfect teamwork!
- Roy: Oh... C'mon, bro! Help us out here, bro! I can tell you're a pro at gaming. Please can you help me play the "Bizarre Brigade" and knock us off the top of the leaderboard?!
- No problem. That's why I here — to score the first place!
- Sure, I'll break your record.
- Roy: Great! Please keep at it! I'm begging you here! I don't wanna have my image used in-game, not at this tender age!
Complete the challenges of Bizarre Brigade to retake the top spot and rescue Roy.[]
- (Complete the challenges of Bizarre Brigade)
- (Approach Jonah and Roy)
- Jonah: What...?! Someone... actually passed us... So this "(Proxy)" is you, then?!
- Roy: Whew... That's... that's awesome! Ah~ I feel as good as new!
- Jonah: Let's go, Roy! We'll take back the first place for ourselves! With our teamwork, we can definitely do this!
- Roy: Hmph, you think I want to? Guess.
- Jonah: Don't be like that. Those boxers with the stars? They're really cool...
- Roy: In your dreams!
- Jonah: Well then, I'll take a step back and we can team up once again. We don't have to use that photo this time — you can pick which one!
- Roy: Why didn't you say so! It's not that I don't want us to win. It's just that I don't want that photo used in-game. I'd be a laughing stock!
- But where did that photo come from?
- Roy: ... ... ...
- Roy: Yeah! That's right! That's a really good point! Why did you even have that photo in the first place? Wasn't our coach the one who snapped that pic?!
- Jonah: Huh? It got posted up to the noticeboard at school. Didn't you see? Everyone at school has probably seen it by now.
- Guess you're already a laughing stock!
- You see, that's the trouble with basketball...
- Roy: ...*faints*
- (Idle)
- Jonah: Hello? Roy?
- Roy: ...
- (Talk to Jonah and Roy again, optional)
- Jonah: Hey... Roy — Are you still there...? Are we still on the leaderboard—
- Roy: ... ... ...
Spend a day in New Eridu[]
- (Wait until the next day)
Go to Godfinger Arcade[]
- (Idle)
- Asha: Hey, (WiseWise).
- (Talk to Asha)
- Asha: Hi. You here to play "Bizarre Brigade," too?
- Yep, I'm still the top dog, right?
- Asha: Nah, the top score now is some secret mystery gamer who's opened up a sizeable gap now — with you in the second place.
- Correct. Who's top of the leaderboard right now?
- Asha: The top score now is some secret mystery gamer who's opened up a sizeable gap now — with you in the second place.
- A new foe has appeared!
- They gotta be cheating!
- Asha: Tee-hee, since we're old pals, I'll let you in on a little secret: It's actually me! But I didn't cheat. I just played hard and played fair. I have to, as the order came down from the director...
- Asha: They never gonna really drop a custom player in-game, and it was always just a promo gimmick. They've already designed the next Companion, so the plan is to get a pro gamer from inside the company to come win it on day three, and they then pick the character they designed.
- Asha: So yeah, I'm the one they picked... I wanted to turn it down, but when the director dangled an extra half month's pay and a day off, I gave in... I suppose that's just the tough side of making a living.
- Asha: But don't be discouraged. I'll secretly give you a limited-edition reward.It's a character skin themed after the Soul Hounds III and its name is Omnom! Personally, I prefer this Omnom over the character selected by the director.
- But the deadline hasn't ticked over yet.
- But I've still got time to stage a comeback.
- Asha: Sounds like you're keen to take back the top spot... There's still time before the deadline, so keep on trying as much as you can! But you know I've got full confidence in my ability. I won't give up the first place so easily~
Complete the challenges of Bizarre Brigade[]
- (Complete the challenges of Bizarre Brigade)
- Asha: Even though it feels awkward for me to say... But congrats, you're topping the leaderboard once more! When the director gave me those orders, I knew a certain brother and sister on Sixth Street wouldn't just stand idly by and let them get their way~
- This isn't even my final form!
- Asha: Oh really? What a coincidence — me neither! If I did that, I'd triple my high score. Keep playing more while there's still time left...
- The champion should be ready for a challenge, any time!
- Asha: Oh really? That's what I think, too! As a staff member here, I have to congratulate the customers. But as a hardcore gamer, I can't stand getting beaten like that.
- Asha: I'm gonna go all out then. If I go into serious mode, you know I'm probably gonna triple my high score...
- That's the true power of Queen Soul Hounds III!
- Asha: Don't listen to those two kids! Oh, and by the way — what ever happened to that friend of yours who wanted to dress up as Monica? The deadline's drawing closer and it's almost time to officially announce the winner, but I don't think he's been in for a couple of days.
- Triple? That has to be cheating!
- Asha: But before that... Lemme ask you, whatever happened to that friend of yours who wanted to dress up as Monica? The deadline's drawing closer and it's almost time to officially announce the winner, but I don't think he's been in for a couple of days.
- I'll call him over!
- Asha: Alright, but let me issue a disclaimer here — if he doesn't come back before the deadline... We can only use you for the skin, tee-hee~
- Hang on...
- Tee-hee?
- Asha: Ack, that's just me being a little selfish. I keep imagining how cool it'd be if I could play with you in the game~ And not just you — they can do 2 skins, so I really hope both you and (BelleBelle /
WiseWise) can show up inside the game! - Asha: Ah, someone's calling me from the store. I gotta go. I'll wait for your good news~
- For Asha, Billy not showing up is good news... Gotta get in touch with Billy, fast.
- (Receive a DM from Billy)
REPLYWhere are you? Come get your prize!
Finished dressing up yet, Starlight Knight?
Finished dressing up yet, Starlight Knight? Come claim the prize!
I was just looking for you, Manager! You see, something urgent came up...
REPLYYou can't just waive your right!
You can't just stand me up!
No no no, don't worry about that, Manager. It's an emergency. Listen to me, cos this is urgent!
Nicole just took on an emergency rescue commission and we're already in the car on the way to the Hollow. I asked if we could stop off to claim the prize, seeing as I'd spent so much on the costume already
But Nicole just chewed me out saying that human lives were at stake and that the commission was paid out based on performance... So in a nutshell, I can't go claim the prize. But don't worry. I've got a backup plan!
REPLYWhat's your backup plan?
Tell me more.
Before we left, I cracked open the far left window on the second floor and placed the costume right by the window. With your skills, Manager... I'm sure you could reach the second floor! Could you do me a favor, get that from the office and wear it to the prize ceremony?
Please! I spent three months' salary on that costume for the Starlight Knights. It's the real deal! You can even smell the actor's sweat still on it!
REPLYYou want me to climb through a second-floor window?!
Would you think about what you're saying here? How could I climb up there — no, why would I climb into someone else's window?!
You want me to wear a sweaty costume?!
You want me to wear a sweaty costume?! No way! That's non-negotiable!
I see... I thought my backup plan was bulletproof. All that money I spent on that costume... I'll have to find a chance to wear it another time. Ah, Nicole said we're almost there. Time for action
Hang on! If I don't pick up the prize, then who's gonna get added in to the "Bizarre Brigade" game? It gonna be Manager? That's $&%#* awesome...!
Nicole's trying to grab my phone, so this is my last message! I don't mind if it's not the Starlight Knights, and going on an adventure with Manager as my Companion is pretty cool too!
REPLYFocus on your mission!
Good luck!
