Previously on  SMG4 story: A tale of Mario and Meggy:

Mario: (thinking to self) What is this feeling? It's not of discomfort or uneasiness, but kind of like how I feel towards my spaghetti. What's happening to me?
————————————————————————
SMG4: There is something up with you two. Everyone knows it.
————————————————————————
Luigi: Come on Mario, your my bro. We never keep secrets from each other.
————————————————————————
Mario: (between sobs) Just... I can't...do this...

Luigi: Do what, Mario?

Mario: (sobbing too much to speak)
————————————————————————
Luigi: Mario, life isn't about finding the right moment.  It's about taking risks and not looking back on those that were failed risks. Look back on those as a lesson that you now know what to do with your current chance.

Mario: Luigi, are you sure you aren't going into motivational speaking?

Luigi: Yes. I'm sure. I belong right here with my bro.

Mario: (smiles)

Luigi: Now lets go talk to Meggy, together...
————————————————————————

Luigi and Mario step out of the room to see that everyone was up against the door trying to listen in.

Mario: Eek! How long have you guys been standing there?

Saiko: Enough to hear most of your conversation.

Mario: That's... not cool...

Tari: Hey, not all of us heard the whole thing, it was mostly Saiko and SMG4.

SMG4: (smiling mischievously)

Saiko: Anyways... we made sure to exclude Meggy from the listening in so it'll be a surprise to her, Mario.

Mario: Why would you do that for me, Saiko?

Saiko: That's because you're one of my F-F-F-F-F...

Mario: Are you having a stroke again?

Saiko: F-F-F-Friends...

Tari: Aww, Saiko does have other friends.

Saiko: hmph. Whatever.

Luigi: So, Mario. Are you ready for this?

Mario: (not at all ready) Ready as I'll ever be.

Mario and Luigi walk across the foyer of the castle, approaching Meggy. Once Mario sees her, he starts to tense up.

Luigi: Loosen up, Mario. You got this.

Mario: I am loose, see?

Mario forces a seemingly pained smile to Luigi.
Luigi tells him that it does not help him by being too dramatic.

Mario: Me? Too dramatic? Ha! That's Glitchy.
