    Hakumen

    Situation Quote Audio
    Intro Hakumen: I shall cut through any evil that stands in the path of righteousness...!
    Merkava: And I shall dine on their remains!
    Intro
    Outro Merkava: Now, you shall sate my hunger...!
    Hakumen: Did you really think I'd let a beast like you run free...!?
    Outro

    Hazama

    Situation Quote Audio
    Intro Merkava: Your aid is unnecessary. My hunger is beyond MEASURE...!
    Hazama: Oooh, how scary. This is why I can't deal with monsters.
    Intro
    Outro Merkava: My body has fallen to savagery... Though I still force my mind to resist.
    Hazama: Yes, you have an unusual way of showing mercy. I find it unseemly.
    Outro

    Celica A. Mercury

    Situation Quote Audio
    Intro Merkava: There's no escape. I shall dine upon your flesh.
    Celica: Wait, stop! I can make you something if you're hungry!
    Intro
    Outro Merkava: Now, we are to become one!
    Celica: Wait, I said! Waaiit!
    Outro

    Susano'o

    Situation Quote Audio
    Intro Merkava: Your fate is sealed. You will be devoured!
    Susano'o: Not a scrap of you will remain!
    Intro
    Outro Merkava: This will not quell my hunger.
    Susano'o: Hmph. It's meal enough for a beast.
    Outro

    Mai Natsume

    Situation Quote Audio
    Intro Merkava: You dwell within an unusual piece of flesh. How enticing...
    Mai: I-I promise, I'm not very tasty...
    Intro
    Outro Merkava: I see... Your body and spirit are in conflict...
    Mai: Ugh... I don't like that look...
    Outro

    Jubei

    Situation Quote Audio
    Intro Merkava: We are both animals... Let's give into our instincts and DEVOUR them!
    Jubei: Hate ta tell ya, but that's really not my thing.
    Intro
    Outro Merkava: Pathetic... What a fragile body you have...
    Jubei: Ain't the body that matters. It's all about the mindset.
    Outro

    Teddie

    Situation Quote Audio
    Intro Merkava: Neither human nor beast... An odd creature.
    Teddie: Look who's talking! What's YOUR deal!?
    Intro
    Outro Teddie: You see that? I'm unBEARably good, right?
    Merkava: Well, you did make for a momentary amusement.
    Outro

    Naoto Shirogane

    Intro Merkava: The humanity within me drives me to take part in this fight.
    Naoto: Merkava-san... If there is a human soul within you, I will find it...
    Intro
    Outro Merkava: I can contain the urge no longer! Gyyyyyyaaaaaaaaah!
    Naoto: So his heart really is human... No, this is--!?

    Outro

    Vatista

    Situation Quote Audio
    Intro Vatista: I will begin my sweep, in accordance with the master's will.
    Merkava: Very well. If we are both non-human, than it seems only fitting we run amok.
    Intro
    Outro Merkava: Your attachment to your body...is the reason for your loss.
    Vatista: But the expandability of the mind software is quite intriguing...

    Blake Belladonna

    Situation Quote Audio
    Intro Blake: I'll never judge a book by its cover. Not even you.
    Merkava: Spare me your pity. You are but a temporary diversion. A fleeting alliance to help me pass the time.

    Outro Merkava: That was, surprisingly, somewhat pleasant. I thank you for your aid, Faunus.
    Blake: I can't imagine life's easy for you.

    Situation Quote Audio
    Generic If you wish to stand against me, then be prepared to put your life on the line. I do not condone violence for the sake of violence, but I will fight to protect myself.
    Generic
    Generic Though I do not expect mankind to forgive me, I refuse to let them end my life.
    Generic
    Generic Our battle has given me great pleasure, but despite your strength...you are only human. No match for a beast like me.
    Generic
    Generic Gragh I cannot contain this hunger! Screeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
    Generic
    Generic I thoroughly enjoyed our battle today. However, I do not wish to involve anyone in my plight. I will return to the mountains for now.
    Generic
    Generic I commend your bravery; many fear my bestial form. If you wish to fight again, I shall be at your side. I could think of no better pastime.
    Generic
    Partner with Hakumen Hakumen: Should you fall to savagery, you do so at your own peril. Should that time come, my blade shall be there to cast judgment.
    Merkava: Your words ring empty. My body is already that of an uncontrollable beast. I have no morals on which to be judged.
    Partner with Hakumen
    Partner with Hazama Merkava: Fascinating. You and I are mirror images of each other. I have shattered my human shell in favor of this beastly form, but you... You are a beast, yet choose to cover yourself with a human shell. Our forms may be different, but our nature is the same.
    Hazama: Please don't lump us in together. I have no interest in making friends with a monster like you.
    Partner with Hazama
    Partner with Celica A. Mercury Celica: Eating people just isn't right! No matter who you become, you're still human on the inside!
    Merkava: Are you offering me sympathy? Or some form of pity? Neither will satisfy the hunger within me.
    Partner with Celica A. Mercury
    Partner with Susano'o Susano'o: You are but a beast clad in sin. Loathsome in every regard. I shall give you the absolution you so desperately deserve.
    Merkava: That will not be necessary. I have long since passed any hope of salvation. I am a mad beast, following my instincts.
    Partner with Susano'o
    Partner with Mai Natsume Merkava: Abandon that immature shell of yours and the conflict between your body and soul shall be erased.
    Mai: If there's one thing I know, it's that I like who I am. No matter how immature or weak I may be, I'll never throw myself away.
    Partner with Mai Natsume
    Partner with Jubei Merkava: I serve my beastial body, devouring as my instincts command. There is no room for questioning.
    Jubei: Nah, I've seen ya question your consciousness. Ya haven't thrown your human mind away just yet.
    Partner with Jubei
    Partner with Teddie Teddie: Y'know, there's something kinda empathetic about you. We might actually make a good pair!
    Merkava: If that is what you believe, then you should allow me to consume you and make us one, creature...!
    Partner with Teddie
    Partner with Naoto Shirogane Merkava: Living solely by my instincts would make me no different than an animal. That is not what I desire. Though my body may be that of a beast, my heart is human.
    Naoto: I cannot determine exactly what you are at this moment... You don't seem like a bad person, but... Hmm. This requires further investigation.
    Partner with Naoto Shirogane
    Partner with Carmine Merkava: Guooooooooooh! It's not enough... I hunger! I THIRST...!
    Carmine: Then why not dine on these leftovers? You are an animal, after all.
    Partner with Carmine
    Partner with Vatista Merkava: I walk from humanity to nothingness, while you were born in nothingness and strive to be human. If we are both covered in nothingness, then the destruction of natural law must suit us best.
    Vatista: False. Although parallel processing is the autonomic nerves' chosen deliberation method, I reject your enforcement of the idea of a heterogeneous origin.
    Partner with Vatista
    Partner with Blake Belladonna Blake: If you can promise me that you won't hurt anyone, I'll promise you that you will come to no harm.
    Merkava: I swear by the human soul that resides within this body that I shall uphold this vow as long as your words remain true. ...Unless, of course, the beast runs rampant.
    Partner with Blake Belladonna
