@returnatus The strange man that was being beeped at is back "What are those things adorned in your hair? They look like beans. Why would you put sustenance in your hair? Is it to be saved for consumption later?"
(Just realized Eternatus would not recognize heart shaped items so take this)
Wow, this guy was weird. Why did they talk like an alien? ...Wait, could they be one of those Ultra Space guys Burnet told her about? Like—an actual alien? They did look pretty human though...
"Uh, they're hearts. Well, they're a symbol called a heart. An actual living heart is pretty different." Wait, what is she doing? Is she seriously explaining this like they are an alien?
Would that explain why her Improvded Power Spot Detector went off when they were nearby? Did they have some kind of... space radiation? (She still hadn't found any other reason it would have gone off.)
"They, uh... they symbolize affection, and, like..." Wait. She does have her new power spot detector on her... And she was definitely sure this time that it would be working properly. She slooooowly reaches for her purse and goes to pull it out. Just to check.
"Well... mostly, though, they just look nice. There's no real reason for them, honestly! I just think it's cute."
