"[Well, about that… Want to see what I've been working on while you were 'busy'?]" Nova asked, excitement creeping into her voice.
"Can't I sleep first, then you show me later?" Hiro asked, a hint of pleading in his voice, as he attempted to snuggle back into a comfortable position.
"[I might end up, sorry scratch that. I will end up disturbing you until you see what I've been working on.]" Nova's voice persisted, overriding any hope of a peaceful nap. "[Asides that, aren't you supposed to be finding something?]" she added, a reminder laced with curiosity.
Hiro released a frustrated sigh. "Fine, Nova. Just make it quick."
"[Sure.]" Nova replied, her virtual enthusiasm evident.
The heads-up display in Hiro's eyes illuminated, revealing a holographic text that hovered in his vision.
