|---|---|---|---|
| Anytime (spoken) | "Heya!" | "Can't wait to strap into this baby!" | "Aww..." |
| Default | "Hey! Are you looking for a partner or whatever? Then I'm coming along! I just thought of a new Skell maneuver I really want to try once we're outside the city." | "Sweeeeet! We can go anywhere with Skells, you know? Now what weapons should we bring...?" | "Awww. I really wanted to try copying some of your sweet Skell maneuvers." |
| Chapter 5 | "I wonder if those xenoforms in Oblivia use Skells? That would be incredible, huh? We should totally go save them so we can find out." | "Then let's get going! Oh, and I also want to see what kind of Skells the Ganglion are using." | "Awww! Well, if you change your mind, let me know." |
| Chapter 7 | "The Ganglion use Skells that employ an entirely different architecture from the kind we use. I really want to fight against one on the field and see how they move, so...maybe you could kinda sorta take me with you on your next mission?" | "I'm gonna bring back SO MANY Ganglion Skell parts! Hop on the hype train, wooo woooo!" | "No? Are you sure? Reeeeeeally sure? ...Yeah, okay. Guess I'll just be here working on these Skells." |
| Chapter 9 | "I can't believe they swiped that alien Skell we found in Noctilum before I had a chance to get a look at it. That's so unfair! Still, I wonder if there's another one somewhere else that's waiting to be found? Oh, hey! Are you here about a mission? Then take me! I don't care where, and I don't care what. I just wanna get out of this dump for a bit." | "Roger that! Off we go!" | "No? Are you sure? Reeeeeeally sure? ...Yeah, okay. Guess I'll just be here working on these Skells." |
| Chapter 10 | "Those Wrothian Skells were unbelievable! Did you get a look at those giant sensors installed on their shoulders? And the firepower was completely off the charts! It's like they were designed to find an enemy's weak point and bring it down in one concentrated attack. They are SO cool. Do you think we'll see them on our next mission? I bet we will. Gosh, I sure hope you take me!" | "I wonder what sorts of Skells we'll encounter this time? I cannot WAIT to find out!" | "No? Are you sure? Reeeeeeally sure? ...Yeah, okay. Guess I'll just be here working on these Skells." |
| Chapter 11 | "Whoa, what kind of machine was that? I've never even heard of it before! The amount of energy that thing must put out seems way beyond what a typical Skell can do. It's like it's from the future or something! I wanna raide it so bad. Even just for a few minutes. Come on, we gotta get it back!" | "All right! Er, and would it be out of line for me to ask that we try not to damage that Skell?" | "I'd do anything for a Skell. A-NY-THING. So let me know whenever you need me!" |
| Chapter 12 | "It's been a long time coming... But the hopes and dreams of humanity are finally within our grasp. With Skells, there is no future to which we cannot blaze a path. Let's equip our Skell flight modules and push ever onward!" | "Now let's make a beeline to the Lifehold Core and secure humanity's future!" | "There is nothing you and your Skells can't achieve! No obstacle you can't blow away! So get out there and make history!" |
| After Chapter 12 | "I never imagined I'd encounter so many incredible Skells on this world. There was that awesome Wrothian Skell, all those unique Ganglion models... Not to mention the Skells we developed here that feature Lin's flight module! And I bet there's so many more to see, too. I'm always ready to jump in my Skell and go exploring with you!" | "Thanks! Now let's customize our Skells with the best possible loadouts and get those engines blazing!" | "No? Are you sure? Reeeeeeally sure? ...Yeah, okay. Guess I'll just be here working on these Skells." |

- "Honestly! The only love in my life is giant robots."
