39th: The Recreation of Haruhi Suzumiya
[It's been sort of a long path, but Haruhi Suzumiya has a... something. She's still hesitating around the word "boyfriend," but someone she is seeing in something sort of resembling a romantic capacity (SSISISSORARC). They were "test running" in October, she was avoiding him in November, and in December, they've been taking it slow. Hanging out more, going out to places, having some meals together...
And now, well, Haruhi decides she wants to mix it up some. So in the morning today she does her usual "throw rocks at Minato's window until he comes outs" and then he's dragged along out into the forest with an ax and ordered the chop down a Christmas tree for her house. She's not really done this weird Western custom all that much before, it it sounded fun to try out this year, particularly with a SSISISSORARC to chop down the tree, lug it to house ten, and then prop it up inside before they go out to collect things to put on it, and finally, decorate with.
Honestly, this might seem like slave labor, but the indicative thing about it is that this happens on a Sunday. She called Winry to apologize and say they should hang out more in the next week but she's cancelling on "their" day a few days before, but didn't give Minato notice about this. If he realizes what she's implying or not is up in the air -the meaning is pretty elusive.
This is a joint post with Minato (![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
emp3thy), and you can run into them many places, but some examples are:
1) Going out into the forest in the morning to chop down the tree... and the time Minato needs to spend chopping when they find it.
2) Coming back with the tree in the later morning and bringing it to House 10
3) Collecting decorations for the tree from the item shop around mid-day and bringing them back to House 10
4) Decorating the tree in the early afternoon at House 10 (this one is prob just for House 10)
5) Going out to a late lunch after skipping two meals aside from snacks after that, at Seventh Heaven and lamenting the variety of places to go for this
Or whatever else between those you can spawn up]

It's all right.
[They'd been together all day already, so it's not as though it's a huge inconvenience. Minato makes sure Ilyana finds a seat before he goes to deal with Haruhi and the servers, though.] Will you be okay from here?
no subject
I'll be fine now... you two go have fun okay? Sorry to have interrupted.
[She couldn't help but be a bit of a romantic, so she didn't like the idea of intruding even if it wasn't an 'official' date.]

[This is interrupted by Haruhi being Haruhi. Minato sighs inwardly and with an apologetic glance at Ilyana, steps over to tap Haruhi on the shoulder.]
Hey. They didn't do anything to you.

Or maybe that's why he decided to come over right now.]
Hello there, ladies. Can I start you off with something to drink?
no subject
So Minato's a lady, huh?

[Ilyana wasn't all that picky about what she ate, so long as it was filling.]
no subject
That all depends on what you like. Do you prefer meat or vegetarian?
no subject
[Don't mind her, she's just ready to eat a live bear at this point.]

But he'll acknowledge Haruhi here and at least try to get her to act like a normal person in a restaurant.]
What are you going to order?
no subject
[Can't get much meatier than that, really.]
no subject
[Wait... did she say dozen?]
