@Minutoh Agreed that Hotaru's behavior isn't creepy under the circumstances, but regarding the plushie thing...
I once spent six months living in a house with no motorized transportation, no internet access that wasn't cellular (and that was SLOOOOOOOOOOW due to only having one bar at the best of times), and the nearest place of business 7 or 8 miles away in another town. It was the single most PRODUCTIVE time of my life, as far as fibercraft goes.
