[IS DAT SUM CHAOS-READY SPLASHMAN]
"Two Custom Expansions, of course," said Suitachi, as he plucked the upgrades deftly from out of seemingly nowhere, and placed them on the countertop. "Three thousand, and five hundred..." said the shopkeeper, as he counted the zenny. Nodding in acknowledgment of a complete total, he sent Sabrina off with his typical "thank you, have a nice day."
Sabrina GET: Custom Expansion x2
Sabrina LOSE: 3500z

Zeo thanked the shopkeeper and collected his purchases. As he turned to leave, he watched Sabrina walk in and up to the counter. "Don't you know her?" ViralMan asked, motioning for him to give the Navi a better look. "Hey, yeah. Sabrina," he said without even thinking. "Guess I should say hello." ViralMan looked at the boy, confused. "She can probably hear you right now, so that's a little redundant."
"Oh yeah, right," Zeo replied meekly. Turning to Sabrina, he made a little wave and greeted her. "Hello, Sabrina. Here to buy lots of upgrades?" he asked as cheerfully as he could sound while wondering whether he had ever even seen her Navi.

"Much obliged!" Sabrina scooped up her latest upgrades, and started installing them without delay. "Don't worry, I'll be back to use these later!"
As she prepared to leave, the Netopian girl started to hear someone near her. She knew one of those voices somewhere, before...oh, hey, Zeo. "Hey Zeo! Eh, just getting a couple of things. How 'bout you?" Admittedly, she'd been paying zero attention to anything that went around her until just then, so she didn't even know if he just walked in or something.

Somewhat encouraged by the fact that Sabrina remembered his name, Zeo proceeded to answer her question. "I was just over on Beach Street doing some busting with ViralMan. Got a fun little sunburn, but some money to go with it," he said happily. Determined to get a word in edgewise, ViralMan piped up. "Yeah, and some fun little viruses..." He shrugged. "We won though, so I can't say they were that bad."
"It's not like beating Beach Net viruses is some kind of major achievement, you know," Zeo admonished his Navi. ViralMan crossed his arms. "Well, if you know of anywhere I can claim an achievement for beating viruses, just let me know," he said sarcastically. Trying to smile, the boy returned his eyes to Sabrina. "Anyway, half of that nice amount of money just went into a few upgrades. They start to get pretty expensive after a while," he noted.
"How much have you had to spend on upgrades recently?" Zeo asked, figuring it would give him some insight as to the nature of Sabrina's Navi.

"Beach Street? Huh, that's where I just was." They must've been in different parts of it, though...otherwise they probably should've bumped into each other earlier. "And yeah, those upgrades really do get pricey after a while...lemme see..." She hadn't gotten a chance to put it away, so she had to have it somewhere...aha, there it was. The receipt to her earlier visit. "Two HPMemories and 5 Process Upgrades...21600z. I don't think it's that unfair, but yeesh! I'm not made of money, you know?"
"Good thing Rogue Net's a good place to get cash, huh?" A rather short hologram suddenly appeared on Sabrina's shoulder. One without so much as a face.

"Twenty thousa-" Zeo blurted out before stopping himself. Going over the similarities of the upgrades both of them had just purchased, that was... wow. "I'm not sure I've ever had that much, actually. I guess I should start saving up if I'm going to buy any more." He laughed, though it was sort of forced. "I didn't even spend half that for almost as much. Your Navi must be something else."
Speak of the devil, something was appearing on Sabrina's shoulder. If Zeo had been at all surprised, he didn't show it. After watching that Red Navi win the tournament a while back, he figured anything could be insanely strong despite outward appearances. And the diminutive hologram spoke of the Rogue Nets. "Rogue Net? That was brought up on plenty of news sites after that big 'war' you missed, Zeo." Zeo bristled. "I wasn't anywhere near you or Electown when that happened, so pipe down. And I heard about Rogue Nets too; they're the kind of place you could claim some kind of achievement from." He scratched his head. "There might have been something else about an even worse place, but maybe they were just talking about the Undernet."
"Anyway, it's nice to meet you," Zeo said to the hologram on Sabrina's shoulder. "I don't think we've ever been properly introduced, so I'm Zeo..." He held up his PET. "...and this is my Navi, ViralMan." The Navi gave a casual two fingered salute from inside the device.

Without a second thought, the Navi hologram happily waved at the PET in front of him. "I'm SplashMan! Nice to meet you guys!"
"And yep, SplashMan's a super Navi! I'm pretty sure if I didn't have him, I wouldn't be half the NetBattler I am right now..." Uh...hmm, that sounded kinda conceited. "Er, not that I'm exactly all that great anyway..."
"..." The aquatic Navi really wanted to speak up, but eh...now probably wasn't the right time to gush about how great he thought she was. "Anyway, yeah, I wouldn't be too surprised if Rogue Nets were right above the Undernet or something..."
"...Ya know, I'm really not..." ...Eh, if she said that, her Navi would probably freak. Better keep that to yourself, Sabrina Jetto. "...Uh, never mind. Anyway, I guess we should be off. There's a couple of other things I need to do, and if I'm not back by the time the inn serves supper, my mom'll worry herself to death. I don't care what she says, if I get back late, she'll snap!" At least her mother was such a good cook that she rarely felt a desire to stay out after dark. But at the same time, she didn't want to just ditch Zeo..."So, where are you going after this? If it's ACDC Town, we could go together. That's where I need to do stuff, anyway."

Zeo made a mental note of SplashMan (likely saying something about not crossing him) before addressing the two again. "Even Rogue Nets are probably beyond us for now..." Zeo trailed off as ViralMan crossed his arms in a huff. "I'd probably be fine... maybe." He sighed. Zeo listened to Sabrina for a bit longer before replying again. "You live in an inn? Uh, not to insinuate there's anything wrong with that. Anyway..."
He thought about his plans for the next few hours. They probably consisted of something along the lines of 'wander, wander, wander some more'. Zeo figured heading back to ACDC with someone he knew wasn't a bad idea. "Sure, I didn't really have anything to do. To be honest, I didn't think much past coming here." Okay, enough coming across as absent minded. "So yeah, I'll tag along," he said finally, putting his PET back in its holster so that ViralMan could still be heard. He took a short step towards the door, prepared to follow Sabrina out.

"Cool! All right, let's go!" Sabrina took a couple of steps...then stopped, thinking of something. "Though, I do want to say one thing...I don't really 'live' in an inn. It's kinda complicated, but I'm staying there for a while, and my mom got a job as a chef at the same inn..." ...Wow, that suddenly seemed too convenient to be coincidence... "...And I just realized she probably picked that inn because I was staying there. Ugh, Mom...couldn't you have at least been honest with me about it?!" With an enormous sigh, she made her way out, purposely slow so that Zeo could follow her without too much difficulty.

"Hello, Suitachi!" Said Rachel brightly, as she marched in through the front door. "I'm in a hurry, but could you get these parts for me?" She laid down a short written list and a credstick, then folded her hands on the table and stood at attention, looking at Suitachi with an expectant, closed-lipped almost- smile.

[+3 FXP to Zeo/Sabrina]
Looking at the credstick, Suitachi raised an eyebrow in confusion, then both raised in recognition. Without even glancing at the parts list, Suitachi produced them with lightning speed, and jammed the credstick into the register. Some kind of sickening mechanical sound later, he returned it.
"Six thousand five hundred zenny. Have a nice day," said the shopkeeper.

"Impressive," muttered Rachel under her breath, but she knew where this skill came from. Skilled Operators, her uncle included, were marked by the ability to manipulate electronic components at the speed of thought, opening and closing switches, typing commands, and of course slotting-in chips.
She scooped up her things and waved to Suitachi as she left for one more thing before returning to Guy.

Jared opened the door for someone just exiting the shop, waited for them to pass, then walked in. He walked up to the counter and placed a cash card on the counter. He'd already loaded it with the requisite 3900 Zenny. "Heya. I'd like a Process Upgrade #19 and a #20."

"Ah, it's you again."
The shopkeeper nodded in acknowledgment as his hands went into a flurry, swiping cash card, obtaining upgrades, and packaging everything into a neat plastic bag. "Two Process Upgrades, three thousand nine hundred. Have a nice day," said Suitachi.
Jared GET: Process Upgrade x2
Jared LOSE: 3900z

"Planning on it. You do the same." Jared said as he turned around and headed for the door. He checked to make sure his airline ticket to Netopia was still in his pocket, then walked on to the metroline. It would be good to get home....

Walking into the shop, whilst programing Freya's SP, he placed down 700z onto the counter. Process Upgrade number 7 please. He said, waiting for the upgrade, he continued on working on the SP.

Walking over from a half-restocked store shelf, Suitachi grinned at the customer and retrieved his requested item. "And just when I thought the tide of customers had finally stopped," he chuckled. Taking his payment and leaving the upgrade on the counter, he strolled back towards his current task.
"Have fun with whatever you're programming," he said with a light wave as he returned to his duties.
Jack GET: Process Upgrade 7

Walking casually into the shop after getting off the metro, Shin leaned against the counter and waved Suitachi over.
"I'll need two PowerUps for the little lady. I've already got four, so 11,000z should do it," Shin requested, handing a card with the amount stated to the shopkeep.
[Request: PowerUPx2]
[5000 + 6000 = 11000z]

Suitachi glanced over towards Shin from his chair before he stood and walked towards the counter.
"So I guess she's a fan of her buster, hm?"
He turned around and grabbed the necessary upgrades before he turned back and gave Shin the upgrades, as he took the Zenny and took it to the register.
"Have a good day."
