===Burst affinity===
The general pattern of a burst affinity sequence is: The person who caused the event says their trigger line. Someone else—the leader, if applicable—says the prompt as the button challenge happens. If failed, the triggerer's failure line plays if any. If successful, one of the other two says a first response lineIn the original Wii version, the first speaker will always be the same party member who said the prompt line, but in the it is chosen randomly between the other two party members., and the triggerer follows with their success line. If succeeded perfectly, both of the other two respond, with a first response and then a second response.
