//I've finished the main story, woo--

//...👁️?

"I'm... fine? Like I said before, maybe just a bit of a bad reaction, but otherwise I'm practically just the same as I was right before."

Of course, she's blissfully unaware of whatever this 'star power' is. Different entities, and all of that. And a general lack of understanding, of course.

"You can't have seen *every* single thing out there. That's really all it boils down to... Maybe these things are common in like, the southwest part of the universe or something."

She doesn't really have a theory. All she knows is she hasn't felt great since biting it...

"I don't even know what they're *supposed* to be like, how do you expect any kind of observations out of it?
...And I'm a researcher of ancient technology, not cosmic food!"

At least it hasn't made her ill or anything. That's... good, if nothing else about the whole thing is.

"If it makes you feel better... after I almost choked, that one tasted better. Still... not my thing, though."

But it at least didn't taste off. Hopefully that's enough of an answer for Rosalina, because she really did not want to eat more of the condensed universe.

"You're asking questions I don't really have answers to... I've not exactly *had* an opportu-"

...To add to the comedic part of things, she's cut off by the one hitting her face instead being eaten semi-accidentally. Oops.

Bleh; still way too sweet.

"Hey, I know you want me to like them, but if they taste like that then it's just really not my thing. Sorry?"

She saw Rosalina's face contort, of course, but it COULD have just been out of upset over Purah's... dislike.
...Get that thing outta her face, shoo—.

Thankfully a couple bumps really don't do much... though they definitely only JUST started bumping into her. Because she hadn't noticed it was an orbit until, well, now.

"...Could you at least make the things stop hitting me? It doesn't hurt, just quite inconvenient."

"Maybe. Or maybe I just have a certain palette that I prefer, who knows really."

There's a small shrug. Either way, now she has... an orbiting ring of Star Bits that she isn't too fond of. Lovely--.

"I don't really do sweets, honestly, but it isn't bad. I wouldn't exactly go out of my way over it, though..."

Is it weird to call cosmic rocks bland? That's basically what she's doing. Still, seems harmless, so... can't complain there.

Less problems is always, welcome.

+ really interchangeable, but... I understand the point. 'Keep them until you deem them safe,' basically."

Again; to her. To Purah?
...Honestly, she feels bad for just denying the things, so fine. She'll pick one out, and give it a try.

If it really is just harmless, then she'll probably stop at the one, because sweets aren't particularly her thing. The guilt was just winning-.

"No, they're not +

That's really... vague. Uh-.

I mean, since we're mostly in peace time, a lot of my relic stuff is kind of moot. So just hunting down mega-ancient stuff and seeing if we can preserve it.

( But saying that means she clearly has succeeded some, right--? )

I really don't think I've been the same since. They definitely put *something* in the water...

But, let's talk about other stuff then! Can't have the princess having weird night terrors now, can we?

( Just means she deals with an eccentric... whichever's worse. )

Genuinely, it's almost... horrifying.

Felt like I was going to drown when I got my stuff strengthened once... so, glad to see you made it out-.

"I... don't think 'experimenting' would do much? But I may keep a couple to study, couldn't hurt."

Even if she is being paranoid, she's clearly proven she's at least mildly accident prone. Proven by her brief time back in child years.

"...Sure, *maybe,* but compositely we're also probably completely different. Who's to say it wouldn't cause similar - likely condensed - problems?"

Short form, she's saying to maybe keep an open mind. And be cautious. Rosalina is almost unquestionably beyond human, after all.
