Baby 5 x Sai (28): "AHHHHHH THESE TWO ARE ADORABLE!!! THEY OWN MY HEART<3
Baby 5 has always wanted to be needed and useful to ppl ever since her mom abandoned her as a child, and this leads to her doing things from acts of service to lending money (with no return) to even offering to KILL herself to help her enemy. However, her enemy--Sai--immediately stops her even if it was to be his advantage, and then puts some sense into her when he points out how her "family" (lowkey a cult) has been using her and how she has completely equated her worth to how she can serve others without thinking of herself.
This, of course, heightens her affections for him (which had been growing throughout their fight), and through a funny series of events they end up engaged ON THE BATTLE FIELD XDDD
In summary, they're honestly so cute! She's overly affectionate & he's a tsundere, and while he might act a big gruff and resist her affections, he does really care for her. They really play off each other, plus they're both incredible fighters and characters and just all-around complement each other<3"
Katrielle x Emiliana (19): "A classic enemies to lovers dynamic, though I interpret it as one-sided enemies. Emiliana convinces herself that she has to be Katrielle’s rival, due to the different ways they approach cases (Katrielle mostly goes on gut instincts while Emiliana prides herself on her profiling skills and data collecting); however Katrielle just seems to be going along with it. Throughout the game, Katrielle teases Emiliana, which flusters and confuses Emiliana. As the game goes on, Emiliana will eventually tease back.
Also, in one of the game’s later episodes, Emiliana purposefully throws others off of Katrielle’s trail, giving Katrielle the chance to figure things out herself. Based on the profile Emiliana made for Katrielle, she knew where Katrielle would go, so she could have pointed everyone to her. She chose not to."
