Still, what was making her wish that she had regular access to a pharmacy wasn't something that she immediately recognized as an issue to be concerned over.
Oh, the fact that a boy and a girl were facing off was familiar enough, as it happened all the time. Even the fact that they seemed to be in some sort of competition wasn't all that bothersome. Plenty of things could pit two people against each other, be it a game of go, to some sort of video game, to trying to out do each other in sports.
Seeing them stand on either side of an arena was enough to prick her concern, as they made no attempt to enter it. However, when it became clear that they were about to send something else into fight, she actually felt a bit understanding, since she remembered Hotaru had been interested in such things.

Rubbing her temple, she hoped that this wasn't going to be as bad as she feared. She had no desire to be called upon to follow the orders of a pudgy little kid with the manners of a bull moose. Yet, such summonings seemed to be happening all the time, and she really hoped that there was a good reason for all this.
