Hotaru's turn

You had spent several minutes taking photos of Izumi (after figuring out how this weird camera worked) and enjoyed all the cute and sexy poses she put on. Hopefully she’d let you keep some of them. Suddenly, you felt a silent vibration on your breast. Still getting used to having those. You discreetly reached into your chest pocket and saw the notification.

“Uh, I need to go uh… I just remembered I forgot something.”

“Wait, you’re leaving already?” Izumi asked.

“No no no. I’ll be right back. I just gotta get… the lenscap!” As soon as you heard it come out of your mouth, you realized how dumb you sounded.

“What’s a lenscap?” Izumi asked.

Oh good, those don’t exist in the future either. “I’ll show you when I get it. I’ll be right back, promise.” You quickly ran out of the room without giving her a chance to stop you.

Izumi sighed and picked up her camera. “Whatever, I guess.”


After running across the space station, you finally made it to Hotaru’s shack. After taking a deep breath to hide your exhaustion, you opened the door and stepped into another unusual scene starring the robot girl.

“Shujiko! Hey there you are!” She ran over to you, forgetting once again that she was plugged in. As soon as the charging cable unplugged she repeated her shut down sequence.

You shook your head at Hotaru's clumsiness. “Of course,” you say as you plug her back in.

As you do so, you notice that her breasts are gone. And that doesn’t mean flat, more like hollow. Where her breasts would normally be are two holes going into Hotaru’s chest.

As you stare, Hotaru finally powers on. “Warning: Unable to charge. Please contact nearest DRR or private maintenance station for detail,” Hotaru’s robotic voice said. “Screw that,” Hotaru said, realizing what she said. “I’ll repair myself if that ever happens.”

“Uh, what was that?” you asked.

“Oh, forgot you were here. Sorry, I just reeeeally don’t like DRR stations. They’re too slow. And private stations are always trying to scam ya, ya know?”

“I meant more about that part where you can’t charge?”

“Oh, that? Ah it’s fine. I just have my batteries out.”

“You what?” you said confused.

“My batteries. See?” She pointed to her chest, specifically the holes you noticed earlier.

“Wwwhere are they?” you say, prioritizing Hotaru’s wellbeing.

“They’re over there.” Hotaru pointed to her workbench where two spherical objects were. They were each half covered in the soft gray material that was Hotaru’s ‘skin’ and half uncovered revealing a glowing yellow material inside them.

“I…guess that’s what we’ll be working on today?” you guess. You could piece together that Hotaru’s breasts were her batteries on your own. You learned to stop questioning things in the future by this point.

“You got it.” She led you to her workbench. “I’ve always wanted to work on them. But the last time I tried, I accidentally unplugged myself and it took a whole day before I was found by anyone. But now that you’re helping, I don’t need to worry about running out of power before finishing,” she said excitedly.

After explaining all that, you couldn’t help but notice again that there were two batteries out at the same time. “Why don’t you just work on one at a time so you always have one powering you? Isn’t that why you have two?” you ask, expecting a lecture on why you were wrong.

However, instead of that, you’re responded to by a silent Hotaru, her eyes turning to loading wheels as she was deep in thought. “... FUCK! You’re right! Why didn’t I think of that!?” She doubled over in embarrassment.

You suppressed a giggle at the robot’s lapse in judgment. You were on a tight schedule and needed to make the most of the moment. “Hey, so what were you thinking of doing? … Are you gonna make them bigger?” you asked, subtly adding a suggestion you would’ve liked.

Hotaru quickly recovered from her ordeal. “Maybe, but that would need the most material. I was thinking of rewiring the…” Hotaru proceeded to give an exciting lecture on robot stuff you had no idea about.
