[►] Chiaki takes a moment to observe the girl. It’s probably the first time she’s ever met someone drowsier than she is. She nods and flicks the television to a random channel—something bright, and nature-y, the kind of place she would have liked to explore with Hinata.
She brushes aside the ache in her chest again—it’s something not exclusive to having a physical body. She would miss him even if she was nothing but code once more. She knew.
"It would seem like it. See?"
The remote’s deposited near the other with a slow movement, almost like it was an afterthought. She returns to her game and plays for a short while in silence before posing her own question.
"…Do you have a preference for anything?"
"I haven’t seen very much television myself…"
quite simply, madotsuki is amazed at the power this technology holds, even if this is perhaps their first meeting. always electricity had flowed into the same device which she herself owned in her original setting, but such a difference was obvious as it could only allow for that which was plugged in and such a thing as the force of cable ―
ah, was it truly of such surprise to her ・・・ ? foreign experiences are rare. things do not often change within her lands whether it be internal or external. new things ・・・ perhaps they frighten her, but as of now, she is more suitably captivated.
「So this is ・・・」
a soft voice; gently, she scrolls through the various channels provided. it seems as if there are not dozens, but rather numbering in hundreds. such a massive network is certainly a bit boggling ・・・ and such variety. the flashing sounds of emergencies and panic call for the ceasing of repetitive buttons pushing into their depressions infinitely. the television is set to a low volume, so she cannot hear well, and she does not feel as if she must open her eye ・・・ perhaps the other's reaction will warrant something.
