Sparkle upon meeting Aventurine: I know what you are.

Aventurine: Uh— a Stoneheart?

Sparkle: Oh, you're not aware yet. That's okay.

Aventurine: Aware of what?

Sparkle: [walking away]

Aventurine: AWARE OF WHAT!??!

Part 2 Part 1

I'm so in love with the 2.1 story quest like hoyo really outdid themselves ❤ Some personal highlights (spoilers ahead!!):

Aventurine bbg ilysm my unfixable wife.

This boss fight is kicking my ass wtf. How do you beat him??? stop insta-killing me with your rich boy gambling. (Edit: I was saved by bailu, March, silver wolf, and preservation trailblazer)

Aventio AND Avenpaz too??? Beautiful.

Boothill and Blackswan interaction!! + Duke inferno kids cameo

Siobhan you gorgeous lady how are you just an NPC??

Sparkle just living her best life lmaoo

Sam = firefly was not on my agenda but now everything makes so much sense. Same with Ifrit being an actually somewhat good dad despite also being an intergalactic war criminal.

Welt + raiden mei acheron omgg

GALLAGHER AND SUNDAY HOLY SHI-

From what I've noticed, sparkle spoke slower than the way real sampo usually would and was rather deliberate to frame her words in a way that was close to the real sampo but not entirely.

Even though sampo is a very unserious person in most conversations, sparkle leaned in a bit too much into that which made the conversations somewhat distinct from the real sampo.

This detail is again pointed out in the companion quest where sparkle says sampo is on the more serious side of the masked fools, which is pretty interesting and might explain why sparkle impersonated sampo in the way that she did in that she wants to see sampo be more unserious.

I feel like this is reiterated by the voice acting, where fake sampo had slower and a slightly forced way of speech compared to real sampo.

All in all, the VA did amazing and I'm really interested to see how the story unfolds.

More discussion with spoilers mentioned below:

Regarding the story and whatnot. I'm gonna have to listen to the dialogue again later. Tbh I was too busy gushing over Mr. Rose's voice in general and the fact that "Sampo" was there to notice the differences between how he speaks and how Sparkle portrayed him! I was blinded by love and deceived so easily 😩

penacony game night! 🍕🎮 (zoom in for a bunch of easter eggs :])
