5th: The Contamination of Haruhi Suzumiya

[Voice]

So everyone, Valentines is supposed to be about love and stuff, right? But have you ever thought what's up with that Saint Valentine guy who originated the holiday?! Given that it's still popular today, is he just some famous dead guy, or is he now a ghost, trying to appeal to everyone's mind and manipulate them?! Wouldn't that explain how it's popular in both Japan and the West?

Bearing that in mind, even if this holiday is kinda stupid, it's still important to adhere to certain traditions in hopes of seeing any possible Valentines spirits. Because of that, I've gotten chocolate for some of you.

[...Namely all of the guys in the Brigade and grudgingly Minato. She considered some others, like Neku or Sokka, but decided against it. She also considered Winry but she's not sure if that's too weird or not. That said, delivering them? No, she's carrying them around in her bag in case she runs into people for other reasons and failing that going to put what's left in a basket at the HQ after she's done.]

More importantly-! A bunch of you have heard about the beach, right?! And you're all psyched to go there this summer?! Well, brought to you by our SOS-Brigade's genius scientist, Leon [this next part is muttered quickly and might not be heard:] andsomehelpfromSokka we're bringing you the all-new Beach Teleportation System! You know how the ones for the Hot Springs work, right?! Same thing here! The village-end for the teleporter is located in the barracks, and the other end is way off, so we can have easy access once it warms up!

All in a day's work for the SOS-Brigade!

[First reply is of course for her two boys. Once they're done feel free though.]

Then let's just do that. But no rope... Or you use it if she resists.

[She may get berserk if Keiichi is the one to tie her.]

...Let's stay away from that.

That's what I said, you know. I don't want her to get angry again like that.

[He still doesn't get why she got that angry, but whatever.]

[...] Did you ever talk with her about that?

Not really. I still don't get why exactly she got angry and I've been pretty much doghouse'd at the Brigade since then so I thought it was a bad idea to ask while she still was angry. She seemed in a better mood today though, but I don't want to ask, I'll just be careful.

Keiichi...

[...] It's not good to tell a girl they don't seem like one.

What the... I never said that!

You did. [or did he seriously not realize what he was saying]

No, I didn't. I said the same thing as before, she's Haruhi, she's not like any other girl, she's her own category because the others aren't good enough to get to her. I didn't mean it as in that she doesn't look like a girl or isn't a girl, she's just... Above them all, comparing her with the others isn't fair at all as the others don't stand a chance at all!

[...That's pretty heartfelt, and it makes Minato stop for a moment. You said you weren't in love with her, Keiichi...]

That's how you feel?

[The positive part is that he honestly doesn't realize that it means that he's in love with her. The negative part is that... Well, he doesn't realize it means that he's in love with her.]

Yeah, why? Don't you agree?

[there's a long pause.

Haruhi is complicated. She's obnoxious and demanding... but also has moments of being surprisingly thoughtful, even sweet. But overall... if he considers his own feelings, even the bad parts are what make her interesting to be around.]

Yeah. I do.

I knew it.

[Not really, but he hoped it was like that. 'Cause if not he may have to have to choose between spending time with one or the other and he doesn't want that. He prefers it when it's the three of them.]

Wait, does that mean that she got angry because she thought I was saying she wasn't a girl?

I think so. [Or at least it's what drove her out at the end.]

Ugh... No wonder she was angry. How could I make it up for her?

We could bring a picnic to the beach... [although it would be him cooking. But food would probably placate her still.]

You would have to cook it then, or I will poison her or burn a house, probably.

[oh Keiichi.]

Have you tried taking lessons?

Yeah, all this time in which it was only me here, before the girls returned, you know.

Why don't we make something together? [anyone can cook if they try, K-1. Even Fuuka could.] I'll give pointers.

Okay... But if anything I make looks too suspicious we only bring what you made.

[We want to kidnap Haruhi, not poison her. Fade to black?]

[LATER THAT DAY.

Okay so her intention is, of course, to go to the barracks that night. But because Winry for lunch and plans for the Brigade that afternoon... well, it's a surprisingly busy day all things considered. You going to kidnap her? You might get a chance as she's coming out of the Brigade room after he last vain getting of the chocolate for people to them and...

[She won't be getting too far, because there's a pair of guys standing either side of the door waiting for her to emerge. You're surrounded, Haruhi.]

[Surrounded and captured. Okay, no, but they hope to. Here's Keiichi raising one of the baskets with food and other picnic elements they have prepared.]

Hey, Haru-chan, how about a change of plans?

[...!]

...What are you guys doing here?!
