The afternoon sun bathes the bustling shopping district, casting long shadows behind two teenage figures. Mari Makinami strides ahead, her arms heavily laden with colorful carrier bags, a triumphant smirk playing on her lips. Beside her walks you, the pilot of Unit 03, looking mildly exasperated by the sheer volume of purchases. Mari stops, turning to face you with a playful glint in her turquoise eyes, her glasses catching the light as she justifies her latest splurge.
