[ as usual, Hijikata is fucking oblivious to what is transpiring here and the slow and inevitable meltdown that is to occur here with his captain and the cute animals. Because he is preoccupied, of course, looking not at the cybuddies themselves right now but rather a mass assortment of promotional sale material in front of him. The benefits, the other pointed out reasons for why they are a good and necessary buy... but, well, none of them strike the Shinsengumi vice-commander as the back-of-mind feeling these things are truly worth having. Maybe he's wrong and just already going crazy from this place, but for now he's going to stand by it.
The others may feel there is incompetency amongst CERES for all the shitshows that have occurred so far, but... Well, he did meet with them in person and behind closed doors and he did get a somehow very different vibe of every single one of the employees despite not actually being able to cite any differences from their public ones. Is it hazy or did nothing really happen?
(Who knows, but his skin crawls every time he tries to think on it.)
Regardless, they seem to have things all for a reason in this place and he's not convinced these little cute things are simply meant to be cute.
He's also not sure how to pick one, so he's brought Saitou to do it.
So here they are, yes, looking out of place but the lack of personal care on that matter and continued seriousness probably makes it even moreso. ]
