Notes

Schnauz's notes

“Notice how resplendent the blue of this slab is! It's called "cobalt blue." The pigment is extracted from an ore renowned for honing one's intuition, intelligence, and reflexes. Yes, the more I gaze upon it, the more advanced I feel myself become.”

Olimar’s Notes

“Space is a funny place. You can be using the latest in galaxy-navigation technology and still find yourself lost in a sea of space trash. But that's life, isn't it? If you want to advance, you've got to be flexible. This also applies to setting martial disagreements.”

Louie’s Notes

“It opens. And then it closes. That's pretty fun.”
