godbent | 38th: The Generality of Haruhi Suzumiya

[Video]

Okay, does everyone remember the raffle with fabulous prizes that my very talented minion, Duplica, ran some time ago?! [this, that is] Well it's time to announce the results!

[Haruhi is standing in front of a shoe box filled with raffle tickets. Well, "filled." Either way, she rummages in there to pick the first name] There might be ten prizes, but there can only be three winners! This draw is for the third pick of prize and it's... [Pull out and reading:] Fenimore! One of the close runners up in the SOS-Brigade's Cross Beauty Pageant a while back! Congratulations! [Fist pump, and now rummage for number 2...] Aaaand it's our very own Oswald! The so-called Lucky Rabbit lucks out with second pick! And the number one ceed goooooes to... [Rummage and pull out-- whoa]

Wow, whoever this is has really nice handwriting. [Okay... reading-] Sakura... Oogami. Okay, Sakura Oogami, you get first pick! All three of you should head to the SOS-Brigade's HQ to tell me which prize you're claiming! In order, Sakura gets first pick, then Oswald, then Fenimore! And if you liked this raffle, and want to do more fun things like it, you should consider joining the SOS-Brigade!

[Okay and then she sits. There's a short pause before-] Furthermore, anyone who was in the last draft- I heard it was in a different Enclosure. I don't really care about all the details of the fighting, but anyone who can tell me what that other village was like can get the beneficial thanks of the leader of the SOS-Brigade! After all, it's Culture Day, so you might as well.

[She salutes the book! Then the end thought-]

And as a parting thought: Do you like pirates, or ninja?

[She doesn't get why they're a polarized debate. But a job is a job, and she might as well make it fun]

[Action]

[and Haruhi will be in the HQ for them. But then later in the day she's going to be planting a sign in the ground outside the HQ which reads:

"Got Problems? Come in and Consult the SOS-Brigade!"

And then she's going to be sitting the HQ waiting for clients and answering things on voice the rest of the time.

OOC: Brigade Plans for November, if anyone wants to jack onto threads about pirates and ninjas, feel free to go for it.]

[ You know, now that Haruhi mentions it... ]

Hmm, I don't think I remember seeing the pageant results.

What? Ryoji announced them back in July. Sure he vanished not all that long after, but... hold on.

[She searches for a few minutes and eventually dregs up this entry]

[ ... That would do it. When Joshua came back to life, he didn't bother trying to see if he'd missed anything from Ryoji. He'd probably expected Haruhi to announce the winners instead. ]

Hmm. I suppose I just missed it...

[ Pause. Pause pause. ]

A three-way tie for second?

Yeah, I know right? It's weird, but when you totaled the results that's what came up.

Fortunate only the first place winners were getting prizes, then. Who knows how many prizes you would have had to give out?

Seriously. Giving out that mange tie-prizes would be disingenuous to the fact there is a prize at all.

At that point, you would probably want to break the tie somehow and rank them that way. [ He giggles. Of course, he totally would have been the best of the second places. Totally. ]

If we did it would be democratically done - from the audience - or more true to Brigade form, which is a King's Order.

And it would all be left up to you?

Of course! It's only fair!

One can argue how "fair" that may or may not be, but I suppose you wouldn't have any of it.

Fair is as fair does! In a contest, it all comes down to objective merit.

Are you calling yourself objective?

When necessary, absolutely!

Hmm... I'm not sure I believe that.

Who cares what you believe?

Plenty of people. Don't you?

Absolutely not.

And here I was under the impression that you held me in higher regard than that.

Then you're under the Wrong impression. I don't care about anything you've ever said, thought, smelled, heard, or indeed anything about your person.

Even though I'm Shiki's friend?

[Friend, seriously?

Seriously? She really can't stand this guy]

Or maybe you don't have faith in her judgment?

Of course I don't, her judgement is awful. Try a different angle.

[ That gets a laugh out of him. ]

Fair enough. Even though I've helped you from time to time?
