1st: The Promise of Haruhi Suzumiya

[Voice + Action]

[So Haruhi... arrived this morning. Or well, last night? Somewhere in there, and she learned the truth the hard way. She's yet to test it, but she's got no reason to think Mikage was lying unless it was an elaborate troll, in which case she'll beat him into the ground.

Thus, once it's a more sensible hour of the day, she clears her throat after waking up - and skimming the journals, getting a brief feel for how things are right now, but afraid to look back and see Haruki so not that far - in the Brigade room (if for whatever reason you character would be there in the morning, feel free to run into her then btw):]

Hey, Luceti, listen up!

I, Haruhi Suzumiya, have returned as what is probably one of the first new feathers of this cycle!

SOS-Brigade, that means that naturally you're required to show up for future meetings, starting tomorrow. If you fail to attend even one of the ones this week I'll penalize you so much that you won't get to see the sun for weeks, got it?! Luceti's going to get much more exciting from here, so look forward to it, everyone!

[...Yeah, that'll due. She'll wait on responses for a while, but then getting restless (it's before noon, after all), she's going to head out

She's got two locations in mind. In order, she's heading to Winry's house (House 23) to knock on it and look for her, and then once she deduces Winry is missing (and in a much more foul mood) she's matching to claim back House 10. Naturally, your character is free to run into her on the way to or at either of these locations as well

Yes just feel free to run into her in general. Or reply. Or whatever. After all, you all remember her a little... different. Though new people are welcome too. Everyone is]

Just because they seem on the level doesn't mean you can't be cautious. And call me Haruhi.

Cautious? Well, I suppose not. And Kida does seem to have quite a mouth on him -- and I almost think that I should know because I am quite well known for being talkative back around Avonlea. Not for the same reason as he is, of course -- some of the things he says! [ and although this is only a voice recording, anne self-consciously grabs at her red braids. ]

See? For an adorable girl like you, you need to consider the risks when you let boys spew you lines. [A sage nod, even]

You have yet to even properly meet me, Miss S--Haruhi. Adorable is hardly a word you can give to an unmatched voice.

Then let's meet up so I can be the judge of you before that!

Right now? Are you sure that you don't want to take time to get settled?

I need my daily dose of moe to get there! [Not really she just wants someone she doesn't know. Yep]

Is that...is that like cod liver oil? [ because moe totally sounds like a medicine. ]

Wha- no, of course not!

Anyway! Just meet me at the fountain in the main square! You have ten minutes!

See you soon, I suppose!

[ and because anne is a very responsible and punctual young lady, she is there just within ten minutes. this is an impressive feat considering the time it must take to dress oneself in the modest, turn-of-the-century way that anne is much accustomed to. over her plain dress is a wool coat and even over that is a thick hooded cloak clasped at the throat.

she isn't sure who she is looking for when she arrives. ]

[Well that's good, because Haruhi, the girl sitting at the fountain in much less respectable clothing (modern skirt, long-sleeved shirt, kneesocks, big scarf) is tapping her foot on the ground and counting the seconds. Her own ribbons in hair are what stick out, but seeing a distinctly out of era (sorta) girl with a little red hair sticking out, she leaps to her feet and points at her!]

Anne!

[ with a polite little curtsy just the way marilla taught her, anne then tucks back the hood and reveals the tell-tale bright red braids. call'em carrots and she might stomp on your foot. maybe. ]

Hello, ah--Haruhi, I expect?

[ she is a but surprised by the modern clothing but she has seen a lot of it around the village -- so she manages not to stare too unabashedly. ]

Aaannnee-chan~!! Oh, you're even cuter than I thought you would be! [And she squees, yes, squees before bounding up to take her hand and... start to drag her back towards the HQ of the Brigade.]

Come on, come on, we need somewhere more private!

[ as far as anne is concerned, it is totally okay to be called cute by another girl. it's only those fresh young men you gotta get up in arms about. like gilbert -- winking at a strange girl he's never met! indignation bubbles briefly behind her overwhelmed grin but is soon chucked out in favour of following haruhi's lead. ]

You'll probably be wanting somewhere a little warmer -- you're hardly dressed for the weather. [ what begins as being dragged soon ends in anne graciously keeping up. one hand caught tight in haruhi's as she barrels alongside the girl in the snow and the other hand holding the cloak's clasp down against her neck. ]

[Oh she's warm enough. Girls wear skirts in the winter to school where she's from, don't you know? ...Mind you winter in Luceti is colder than at home, but she's arrogant. So... drag! But it's not that far, the HQ's really just a quick run from the fountain. And once she's got Anne past the threshold, she turns and-

...Well she locks the door. With a deadbolt.

And then turns and smiles!]

Welcome to my HQ~!

You have all of this?

[ she ignores the deadbolting and instead twirls in a lazy circle towards the centre of the room. the space! why, was it much larger than the avonlea school house? she thought so.

looking back at haruhi, she begins to tug the fingers of her gloves free and then tucks the gloves primly into a little clutch purse in a fashion she has seen the avonlea ladies do many, many times before. click. ] AVIS -- that is, the Avonlea Village Improvement Society, never had its own building.

[map, by the way. Yes, it is a hugeass table

Anyway, she grins and flips her hair ~~like a Fierce Bitch~~]

Of course! That's because we're much better than AVIS or PEDA or the JSDF or any other acronym like that!

[ and she gravitates predictably to the book-shelf, swooning over some of the titles and plucking this and that out. past the superficial elements of social decorum, anne is a little nosy and perhaps a touch over the top -- at least, she is for her own decade.

looking back, that hair flip makes her jealous of haruhi's gorgeously not-red hair. ] I'm sure it's phenomenal.

Of course it is, I made it after all... [That said, her decorating sense isn't the best. Or the best, depending on who you ask. The room centers around a table, with a different, smaller, and more special one for Haruhi to sit it facing a large window that Walter installed facing outwards. There is a large collection of odd outfits hanging up on a coat-rack on one side and a fairly impressive book-shelf-collection on the other, which also has a large amount of various games. There's also (as noted above) a small stove, a tea seat, a mini-fridge, all sorts of other creature comforts - a copy machine in one corner, a laptop somewhere on one of these shelves and then all sorts of random things like dolls or tiki masks or other things strewn on the walls.

SO YEAH, SETTING. Anyway, now free of locking the door, she turns back to Anne with a grin]

You know, it's a shame... you're so cute, but I'm not sure that outfit displays it that well...

I know. [ her smile droops. ] It would be so much more elegant with puffed sleeves, don't you think? I have one dress with wonderfully puffed sleeves but it's better saved for recitations or for church.

[Hm... she taps her finger on she cheek a little more and...]

Okay, strip. I'll put you in something better.

Better?

[ and yet why is she unclasping her cloak? ] I'm not so sure I should accept. Marilla would faint if she thought I was behaving like a charity case.

Everything's free here anyway, so it doesn't matter. Besides, it's fun for me too, so hurry up!

[With the stripping]
