Chapter Summary: Susie feels an emotion or two.


When Susie brushes past Meta Knight, he flinches.

It's curious. That time of Mecha Knight was fleeting, yet that anger which sizzles but never explodes remains.

A truth: Susie wants to mechanize him again.

Another truth: When Susie sees that look he gives, she can't.

How can one be furious at something that flashed in the blink of an eye? If anything, Susie should be angry. She's the one who was stranded in Another Dimension, who faced her father that failed to recognize her.

Years she endured, yet that righteous fury isn't there.

Envious, Susie gazes at the knight.

How?


The title is based off of a lyric from SAKIMA's "Death Is In The Air." The lyric is "Is my heart breaking, / Or do I have one at all?" The song is definitely pessimistic, but it's a good listen.

I think what made Planet Robobot fun for me is Susie's character. She's definitely one of my favorite antagonists, and it helps that she has a cute design to boot!

If you guys like my writing itself, please check out my fanfiction "hatsune miku vs. the world & knuckles: the electric boogaloo™" on AO3. It's a story that leans towards humor and romance. I'll be updating it later tonight.

See you next time, Shiver Star residents!
