32nd: The Gender of Haruhi Suzumiya

[godbent]

[So from Day 2 of this onward, Haruhi is now Haruki. This effect will last all week and possibly be stacked on top of other effects. You guys are free to come at him with whatever you want too, and I'll roll with it. Replies to this post are generally assumed to be Day 3 or later, and you and see Days 1 and 2 here

The scenarios used in this post do not have to be how you tag him on those given days, I'm trying to supply some ideas for people stumped as to how to do it. Seriously he can be anywhere within reason, so give me a case and hit me.]

[Action: Day 3]
[In which Haruki is throwing out his sheets/comforter and needs to go get new ones. Pity the bed's still too small for him, or nearly, but he doesn't want to change all that up.]


[Action: Day 4, 5]
[Jogging, lots of jogging. All around the village and the forest's edge. Sure it's cloudy on Day 4, but all that means is that it's less hot so it's not sweltering. As such, he is jogging shirtless on both days and generally enjoying this somewhat cooler and breezy later spring/early summer. And you should too.]

[Voice: Day 6]
[On and off storming all day, Haruki has decided to stay in. In the course of staying in, he's decided to start making more complete notes on how he wants to run that pageant idea. And in the course of doing that, he flips on the voice to ask something of the village-]

Oi, so who here would like to see some of their friends participate in a pageant? I know some of you do already and some of you did last time, but let's hear it.

[Action: Day 7, 8]
[Sort of expecting to be replaced by Haruhi today because these days make a week of weird effects. In spite of himself it makes him pensive, and as such he hangs out mostly around Ammy's Tree Hill today, looking at the tail end of the blooms there. He'll also be around the village later, of course.]


[Action: Day 9, 10]
[Aaaand then he wasn't replaced, which was perplexing. However, by this point he has seen and done a lot of weird things, so he's just trying to go about a normal day of hanging at the HQ, fully expecting something weird to bust into his life anyway. Might as well hang out and see what's what, so when he isn't in the HQ he's wandering around, maybe looking for something or someone interesting]

[ Haruki happens to be out and about and Joshua happens to be out and about! Thus they are clearly likely to bump into each other at some point because that is how these things work.

Double take in 3... 2... 1... ]

... Haruki?

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

[...Oh, this guy]

Yo.

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

Should I be saying "welcome back"? Perhaps "long time no see"?

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

Either one works. [He's probably here temporarily anyway]

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

Ah, but I suppose the interesting question is concerned with how the memories of this change work, isn't it? Well?

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

My memories and her memories. Both. It's weird.

[...Why is he even talking to this guy? Sigh]

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

Hmm. So when you think of back home, which one of you do you remember being?

[ Because this is really interesting and Josh wants to know things, of course! ]

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

Me? I've got her memories here and my memories beside.

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

Ah, so that's how. Then do you remember being here as yourself before, or always as Haruhi?

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

I already said that, I was me until I went back, then her, now me.

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

Interesting.

So, what do you think? Is this the Malnosso, or your own power?

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

The Organization, obviously.

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

Are you just saying that because you want to deny you have power?

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

I'm saying that because it makes sense.

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

It would make more sense if the effect hadn't lasted so long before.

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

Right, I guess it's just one of those mysteries of the world.

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

You don't have any reason to have wanted to be male again?

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

No, I do-- Well I don't she doesn't and just drop it, jeez!

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

If you say so. [ And he giggles. ]

So how did your housemates take it?

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

None of your business!

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

But they are my business.

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

Well none of them are out of it beyond being confused.

[And with a dismissive handwave, he's going to try to walk off. Not that he expects it to work, but]

[Day 3]

[neverplaysfair]

[ Sorry, Haruki, nope. Not when he still finds this interesting. Joshua will just be following along. ]

So no interesting comments?

[Day 3]

[deusexhormones]

Nothing that I'd write a report on anyway.
