Look, hot take, but Blazer vs Invisigal isn't a balanced choice in the game because the core narrative theme of Dispatch is "rehabilitation and forgiveness" which is 100% Vizi's arc and they didn't put development resources into Mandy's story. It's fine. I get it.

But... if I was gonna open up her arc and set up a REAL narrative foil arc for Blazer vs Invisigal, I might propose a focus on the second most important theme in the game: The idea of heroic sacrifice. Mandy is a character who loves being Blonde Blazer, but she's afraid that 'Mandy', her civilian self, is so diminished no one will want to know or care about that part of her.

Meanwhile, Robert has been nothing but Mecha Man for so fucking long he functionally has no life as Robert Robertson. He's a famous veteran superhero just like Blazer, but Blazer is guarding her civilian self and fears losing it in a way Robert long gave up on.

Robert is burning himself alive to warm other people and having someone else echo Chase saying, "You don't have to be Mecha Man to be a hero," would be especially powerful if it was echoed by Blonde Blazer and re-enforced by her temporarily giving up her own powers and supporting her team as a leader.

Regardless of romancing her or not, Mandy being team "balance and boundaries" would have been interesting. Like if you unpack Mandy and Vizi's themes, Robert comes out of it like "I don't have to die for this cause" and "everyone who wants to be better deserves a chance to try."

With Z-Team, both themes are prevalent. Mandy and Vizi being two parallel but equally important flag bearers for those themes and two romantic options would have felt... really cohesive I think? The bones are there!

Listening to the local fire department radios as they rescue a cat in a sewer. Here's how it's going:

FD: We can see the cat. Do you have an ETA on animal control?

Dispatch: Twenty minutes.

FD: Alright, we think we can get the cat.

Dispatch: Copy, we'll let animal control know.

FD several minutes later: We've got the cat.

Dispatch: Copy, do you still want--

FD, interrupting: Update, the cat DOES NOT like us.

Dispatch: ...so you do still want animal control, then?"

FD: Yes. Tell them the cat is in the engine.

Dispatch: ...are you also in the engine?

FD: Not anymore, no.

my partner doesn’t use pet names nearly as much as i do, which is very funny because i will crack my gay little knuckles and say some shit like “good morning my sun and moon, my loveliest boy, my baby my sweetheart my darling dearest” and he will reply “hello adrian”
