I never paid the whole minesweeper conversation in UMTT Love much attention, only giggling about thr concept of "minesweeper premium" or whatever

HOWEVER

If you think back to the whole "the first move is always safe and im giving it to you" thing Galatax told the team was in a way forshadowing the finale

Captain Duke had everything going for her, even with the unpredicability of the final DX Machina team she still won over them and all that was left was to just make the one final move, get rid of the last possible threat and- SHE STEPS ON A MINE AND GETS BLOWN UP

Aughhghg this show is so good guys

I like to think that Trish and Boshi would definitelly bond over their trauma related to their parents and also their tendencies to overachieve in their fields

Both of them have done great things (Trish being the youngest NAREA cadet in history and Boshi building a giant war machine) because they felt the need to prove themselves*

(*i know thats technically only canonical about Boshi but also since Trish mentions her dead parents basically all the time i like to imagine her overachieving tendencies are definitelly influenced by that fact)
