"Hoshi? Where are we going today? Are we going to visit Misora again?" Vul asked, floating above her operator's head.
"Return to the transer immediately before someone catches you..." Hoshi said lowly, looking around the market cautiously. "If we ran into someone who can see you FMians like I can... That would not good.."
"You have a point... But it's more fun this way and I feel a lot more free than that stupid contraption of you humans!" Vul exclaimed, making a round above her head.
"I spy Subaru at the corner. Don't forget, he has that special visualizer he's always wearing atop his head," the girl said casually, walking off to the cash register.
"Where? Where?" Vulpecula asked, clearly alerted with the lie.
The alien quickly peered around their surroundings and headed into the so-called 'stupid contraption,' remaining quiet for a minute. Hoshi reached the counter and set the items she needed to buy for dinner down to get them checked out, flashing a polite smile to the cashier and getting one in return.
"Hello, young miss! Shopping for your family today?" the teen asked formally.
"Yes, I am," the girl replied as she punched in a few numbers on her transer.
"How very responsible of you for being so young. When I was your age, I'd always laze around all day!" he chuckled.
'Oh dear... This is going to be awkward,' Hoshi thought, smiling nervously.
Finally finishing her supposedly short errand, the girl bid a farewell to the cashier and immediately left the market before someone could strike up another long conversation with her.
'You lied to me! Subaru was nowhere to be seen in the market!' the orange alien suddenly exclaimed. 'Anyways... Is this how all humans act like? Talk all day and never get tired? Or have at least one person get tired out and leave?'
Hoshi sighed exhaustively and opened her transer to look at her wizard.
"No. Well, not everyone..." Hoshi replied, searching for Misora's ID. "It gets awkward when you have no idea what to say.."
'I can see that. It's like you lost some sleep just listening to that guy!'
"Whatever..."
Hoshi then contacted the idol she was planning to visit next and continued to walk back home with her arm up to her chest level, waiting for Misora to pick up the call.
'Yeah, what's up?' Misora asked, sounding a little more irritated than usual.
"Whoa there, man, are you feeling alright? It sounds like you got into another argument of some sort. Wait, are you at a beach right now?" Hoshi asked taking in the background on her screen.
'Splendid... You guessed it right, Hoshi,' she groaned on the other side. 'THAT MAN IS A NUISANCE IN MY LIFE! JEEZ, IF ONLY HE LET'S ME DO WHATEVER I WANT FOR ONCE!'
Hoshi chuckled nervously as she listened to her friend scream through her screen and throw plenty of fits, kicking the sand wildly and even going as far as punching trees to throw the coconuts that drop from above. She then stomped her left foot and dug it deep into the sand furiously and screamed at the top of her lungs, her voice sound powerful and stern.
'I. CAN'T. STAND IT!'
Hoshi smiled sympathetically at the screen as she watched the images become quick blurs, mixed colors, Misora, and then an odd pink aura near her.
'What the...' Hoshi thought, halting her smile into a small frown.
The image moved again to where the pink aura was supposed to be, but it seemed to be that it was never there, completely gone.
