Can I just say I adore Qi’s relationship with Mint. I feel like its such a good way showing the other side of Qi before they get close enough to see it, and idk I dont think people talk about it enough.
I find it interesting partially because it reveals a lot about Qi’s tendency to be sentimental and hold onto the past (despite the fact he would never admit it.) I find this an interesting aspect of him I dont see brought up enough. He keeps memories of his family and espeically his grandfather very close, I feel like he’s one of the characters with the most photos of family in his room actually (idk correct me if im wrong on that im not sure) and holds on to even small ideas he had as a child (gunghamm mobile suit, katana thing, etc.) 
Now, this could be for several reasons. I feel like a lot of it is rooted in wanting to prove himself to people, wanting to make his dreams reality for himself, absolutely, but also wanting other people to see that he was right to believe in himself and his intellect. He mentions people thinking he was crazy for going to Sandrock, and he doesnt really hide that he wants to be known for his acomplishments. Qi cant stand being wrong and even if it seems impossible to make his childhood dreams a reality he’s going to try his damnedest, so part of the reason he holds onto his childhood dreams is out of spite.
I also feel like theres a component of not wanting to have wasted potential. He talks a bit about how he thinks his parents are wasting their lives and potential by being perfectly content with being simple fishermen who dont desire measurable improvement (money, fish caught, that type of thing). So I feel like he has definetly internalized that dissapointment in his parents by doing the opposite and desiring measurable improvement above all else, because otherwise how can he be sure what he’s doing is worth much?
A lot of this is in contrast to Mint, who doesnt hold onto his past that much. He barely talks about it at all, largely because well, there isnt a lot there. Mint doesnt care that much about proving himself to others, he doesnt care about proving himself to himself. He’s willing to largely take life how its given to him. DONT GET ME WRONG, hes not necessarily a slacker by any means, nor is he unmotivated, But I feel like by Qi’s means he definetly would be.
Mint does what he needs to, he does it well, and he takes a nap. Qi does what he isn’t required to do, does it well, and then does more shit he isnt required (and often he should not) do. In a lot of ways, Mint does what he does directly to help others where Qi does what he does for himself, and if others get helped so be it. You see this in the type of jobs they choose too, with Mint being an engineer who goes around the free cities and helps with town improvement and Qi being a solitary researcher who went to a town on the verge of collapse, not necessarily to help the people there, but to find an old world spaceship, for himself and for recognition for his work.
I also find it interested in how theyre united in their isolation from others. Neither Mint nor Qi really have that many friends. All Mint really has is Gale, whos more of an uncle than a friend really, and all Qi has is well... no one that he acknowleges as a friend ( I feel like hes on a lot friendlier terms with a lot of the town than he would mention BUT THATS FOR ANOTHER TIME ). They both clearly struggle with making friends, Mint because hes on the move, and Qi because its not a goal. For both of them, making meaningful connections with people aren’t really a priority. The priority is always their work, both of them wanting to be recognized more for their work than for themselves as people. 
IDK I just think its very interesting. I could probably write more TBH but this is kind of insane. I just like thinking about them rly theyre the bestest of pals.

My time at Sandrock HCs
(Spoilers for the story just a heads up!)
I think everyone underestimates how scared the builder gets sometimes.
They're brave and jump into action without question. A helping hand is always outstretched even to folks who don’t quite want to take it, to those who slap it away with a snarl like a cornered animal, and to those who take it for granted.
Remember how the trolly line snapped and they fell, to what I’m sure they thought would be, death? Only to miraculously survive and crawl their way out of a swarmed Geegler camp with Justice and Captain.
I’m sure fighting the CEO of Geeglers (Larry) was scary, I’m sure when the battle ended they felt a sense of relief.
But can you imagine the fear they swallowed down when they charged onto the train, trying their damndest to save this town only to fall off of a high speed train.
I wonder if they felt relief seeing the bride collapse under the Geegler and train. I think maybe at night, when they climbed into that dingy and dusty bed in the workshop, they sobbed. They cried and clutched the blankets wishing it was Ma’s quilts that smelt of the breezes and Highwind. Maybe they thanked the light, perhaps they cursed it, or maybe thought nothing of the Light and only about the fact that if they didn’t fall off that train they would have fallen again, and into a chasm with no way out.
I wonder if they hate living so close to the station. Hearing the noises of a trains whistles and wheels squealing against the metal tracks, reminding them of the many train related incidents they’ve had.
Then here comes Mint almost getting ran over by a train. I bet for a second their feet froze mid step, before gritting their teeth and charging Mint off the the tracks.
I think maybe they hate heights.
I think during the night, they get that vertigo of feeling like they’re in the midst of falling and they wake up screaming and sobbing in a puddle of sweat.
I think the mornings they wake up to the trains whistles and whirls of noises result in a yelp, hands clutched over their ears as they try to forget the feelings of the rumbling train. Of falling. I dunno, I just think I suppose!

ROUND 1 MATCH 35

Adrian propaganda:
No Adrian propaganda :(
Mint propaganda:
“He's so sweet. He comes across as a lazy genius but he actually has a very strong work ethic and puts a lot of effort into his job as an engineer. He just really enjoys napping in his free time. He's an orphan who just wants a family. When you give him the Heart Knot (item to start dating) he gets so flustered that he runs off and you have to wait for him to come back to your house the next day. He's also the only character to come with the marriage perk of giving you his paycheck every month.”

I can’t remember if they actually went to college together or not but I think it would be very goofy if Mint dragged Qi to a party and when they got there, Mint ofc just falls asleep, leaving Qi (who already didn’t even want to go to the party) alone and angry with a bunch of strangers and alcohol. I just think it would be funny yk.

Spoliish?
.....
Anyone who played portia and romanced mint should be happy that they didnt not not retcon it in sandrock.
For thoes who dont know his backstory, mints an orphan from vega 5, witch is why i point out what he says When you talk to him the 3rd time he shows up after you finish installing the whistles. You can ask him how portia is and hell say its nice. My familys there.
So you can take it anyway you want did you romance him in portia? Cool hes talking about you! If not then also cool he started a family in portia with someone else!
Just thought it was a cute lil thing
