You're not supposed to care. It's a trivial feature for raking in cash. I'd rather explore and loot some Redcoats out of their savings.

7 PM: Sprung has picked me up in a riced out little go kart of a car. He smells strongly of cologne. He needs assistance getting out of his booster seat when we arrive

I lost it at "number one, engage". :wacko:
I was thinking "you're my number one because you make my captain dick-'ard"
But brevity and all that.
Also, if there's an EP visual novel, Ray's writing.
With my outburts finished, I feel the anger washing away from me. A deafening silence filling the air. Then, the silence is broken by a few gradual sobs.
And I ran. The beating of my heart echoing in my ears. I know she must hate me after all the trouble I've caused. But I just couldn't let Gareko's abusive father keep talking to her that way. Even if she never speaks to me again, I can only silently pray that she never has to be treated this way again.
Running across town, I don't stop until my legs have stopped functioning. The aching of my legs only surpassed by the aching of my heart. I let my emotions get the better of me, and I'm going to pay for that for a long, long time. Today was no doubt a lifechanging day.
The only sound hanging in the air is my ragged gasps for breath. Then, the sound of small shoes clacking on the cobblestones.
Go away, I don't want to see anyone. Not right now.
I wait for the person to leave, but they remain. Silently watching me a few feet away.
"Ivolt-kun I-I love you!"
My mind went blank at those words.
Could it really be?
I turn.
There, silhouetted by the setting sun was a small brown girl with bows in her hair and tears streaming down her face.
"G-gareko!?"
OK.
Now where and who do I fund for this to happen
Also, Gareko route has to be the True End. JUST BECAUSE.
But as it turns out, this is a Nitro+ VN. Possibly UroGen as well.
In other words, Gareko's abusive father is actually raping her every night. Also, Gareko and Ivolt eventually fight to the death in their mechs. Or commit a lover's suicide together. Or both.
Because Nitro+.
Actually I was thinking she turns out to be the token "poor little sick girl".
Although taking a page from Gen's book this turns out to be far worse than it appears.
The reason she's sick is because her father has some sort of horrible super AIDs which he acquired from her mother (who had a series of affairs and wound up infected). Gareko happens to be the result of one such affair. Her mother died of the illness not long after and her father is on a clock that's ticking down. Hence his anger issues and his combination love/hate for his daughter who is simultaneously the only thing he has left of his now dead wife (he's still deeply in love with her) and is one of the few legacies he's leaving behind. On the other side she's also a constant reminder of his wife's infidelity and possible lack of love for him. After raping his daughter one particularly horrible night, he passed it on to her. And she, unknowingly, to you.
The True End is you realizing she has mere years to live and you're probably going to be dead within the decade. But deciding to enjoy what little life you have.
HAPPY END.
