People will call Susie a bad friend and say she's ignoring Kris for getting a girlfriend and giving her attention,

But ignore the fact Kris mustered more effort to overcome our control of them to literally stab Susie and Ralsei in the back if you beat the Knight in chapter 3 than to stop the snow grave route,

Hi, thanks for the ask!

I don't think Susie is a bad friend or I'd be a fucking hypocrite in my own friendships. IMO Susie is simply spending more time with Noelle to get to know her and both of them get up to speed. In the end it will mean more people for Kris to be weird with and I think it's a great way for Kris to rekindle their friendship with Noelle. (I don't know if we both agree on this???)

And to protect Kris too, the little they has some pretty big issues going on and we are clearly possessing them. I don't think the PC playing a game inside a game where they kill sprites of their friends is indicative of them actually doing that to their friends. Or that Kris will be putting up any less resistance against us the Player when we might eventually get to a similar part in Deltarune. If Susie, Ralsei, and Noelle get killed, that will be completely on us, the Players, not the victim of a possession, Kris. Kris also did pull Susie away when the sword!Kriss sprite came at them, so there is that.

Weird route chapter 5 also happened pretty intensely and suddenly in a sense. If Kris knew where that curve would lead, they would have chucked us out of their chest pronto.

Addendum: Deltarune also has some lines about how playing an evil route in games doesn't make a player evil. I think an NPC pretty much says that it's a silly thing to think. I also think people are free to interpret this differently, but I think it's better not put that much gravitas on playing games. It's also entirely in tricky Toby's power to write the most heartwrenching dialogues for the Player to read when one goes down a full genocide run. :) (im aware there is no real genocide route yet, shush)

So tldr; I can't really take sides for Susie or Kris. Both kids are experiencing Things(tm) and I like watching a good trainwreck.

Ahkmou tried to make a pretty penny by selling lucky frogs. Village elder Onewa was not happy with him removing froggies from their ponds, so now Ahkmou just hangs out with his new amphibian friends. The Kraata's name is Puha. Her and Ahkmou are besties.

Bonkle thoughts, not so late edition:

Mata Nui Matoran, especially Ta-Matoran, are absurdly skilled fighters for a random generic Matoran.

Why? Vakama. Vakama had an odd assortment of mentors.

First, obviously, Toa Lhikan. Not for too long, but they were on talking terms even when Vakama was a Matoran, so he might have gotten in a few tips in even then. Maybe he was even Lhikan's designated maskmaker and in extension probably to all the Toa Mangai then. That's a lot of adventures he could have heard about at the very least.

His teammates obviously. We see at least one instance in the book where they spar.

Sidorak. Compared to a Dark Hunter, he is a shit fighter, but still a moderately good fighter as I recall it from the books, or at least had the balls to lead his Visorak in the person. Gladiatoral fights are also a national sport to steltians, and he was friendly or at least polite with Vakama. There is no way he didn't have holos/videos on him to watch in his downtime. Obviously his Commander of the Visorak Hordes, who is a fresh Toa, must see the best ones. For educational purposes of course. (Roodaka appears mid-session to point out mistakes and incorrect forms, and gets the most upset at the referee when they make a shit decision. This is the only time Roodaka shows any genuine interest in Sidorak. Roodaka is very disturbed by this afterwards.)

Roodaka. She is a skilled double spy (see, she scales a DH bastion's wall like no-one's business). She has both Brotherhood and Dark Hunter training. She captured four martially highly skilled Toa Hagah and made such an impression on Bogaraks that they'd rather jump off a tower, than displease her. Roodaka has high standards even with her casual hipocrisy, so it's safe to assume she at least taught Vakama how to dodge properly so that he would be an asset for longer.

The whole team of previously mentioned Toa Hagah. After the Visorak Hordes are gone and while they are building the airships, I'm sure the Rahaga made a point to prepare their Toa Metru siblings as much as possible (wich probably included both Toa training and any random Brotherhood related skill or knowledge they deemed useful).

In conclusion, Vakama has the rarest hybrid dark-hunter-brotherhood-classic-Toa training in the whole MU. Which he imparted on his Matoran. No wonder that the Inika/Mahri kicked were as good handling bad guys as they were.
