"Wahhh-hee!" Here comes the boy. The boy being Starfy, of course. The one-foot-tall starfish. Thing. Is absolutely beaming at Wario. It's very clear the little guy could easily just double jump to perch on the brute's shoulders or whatever, but his little arms reach up for the other. He wants up. Hello Wario, it's been a while, I am happy to see you again, his expression says.
It's his dude! It's his little dude!! Though he'd never be able to express that excitement properly, he does indulge Starfy in his request. He tosses the little star up! and then catches again, repeating for a good moment before a chuckle emitted.
❝ Ohohoh... HEY SQUIRT! ❞ It HAD been a while. There's a lot for him to boast about. He's gotta catch Starfy up on his great accomplishments since last time. ❝ You've been getting stronger! Did'ja give 'em hell? Have you been enjoying my game?? ❞
