25th: The Defense of Haruhi Suzumiya

[godbent]

[Voice]

Okay, so listen up, everyone. There's a new girl in town who I want you all to recognize and keep something in mind when dealing with her!

[And then to the book, she holds up a picture of Mikuru (tpdd). Taken with the journal and ripped out - namely, it's just her making tea in a cute pink yukata. Something simple and non-invasive for the time being]

This is her - Mikuru Asahina. She's cute, right? Of course she is!


[And then this face]

If any of you guys are harassing her or hitting on her or whatever and I hear about it I'm reserving the right to pepper stray or taser you. You got that? I'm serious too, don't you doubt that for a second.

[...Okay no with that done with back to smiling! She laughs where briefly before-]

Now! If you want to see her or you just want to helped out - particularly all you New Feathers, bonus points if you have something interesting to show us - recall that the SOS-Brigade is open to taking requests even now. Now that the holidays are over and the winters settling in on us, now's the prime time to do it! Got some stuff which needs investigating? Some emotions you can't deal with, some other inane task we can mend when it comes to interpersonal issues?! Sign right up! the HQ's right in the center of town, you can't miss it.

[... Hm. Yeah that should do it Request post for the Brigade is here, just recall!]

-And for today anyone coming to see Mikuru I'm screening first.

[EDIT: For the record if anyone wants action threads with Mikuru (or Haruhi! or both!) for whatever reason both are at the HQ right now.]

That's volume two - do you have volume one?

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

[He roots around again. This was something Fina left in the house and he'd acquired because he may as well keep the volumes together. Even if he wasn't so fond of this artist's interpretation of... stuff.]

This?

[Filtered]

[godbent]

[Wince. Oh wow, he has... that cover]

Yeah, those.

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

This was before my time.

[Filtered]

[godbent]

Right.

I'm going to borrow those.

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

...Why?

[as she'd noticed.... these had him in them. (Not to mention a very ooc rendition of Minato himself. He's not sure he wants that dredged up.)]

[Filtered]

[godbent]

Because I said so.

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

I want a reason.

[Filtered]

[godbent]

Because I want them!

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

Will I get them back?

[Filtered]

[godbent]

Does it matter? It's not like I'm going to destroy them.

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

I don't want blackmail photocopies around town.

[Filtered]

[godbent]

Come on, would I be that petty?

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

Maybe.

[and then he asks. It's a long shot, but in context...] Is it for her?

[Filtered]

[godbent]

For Mikuru? No. That's... it's full of him, it would just make things needlessly complicated.

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

You're still not telling them, then.

[Filtered]

[godbent]

There's no point.

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

[...]

....Probably not.

[Filtered]

[godbent]

Definitely - now am I getting the volumes or am I stealing them?

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

You can have them.

[....except suddenly he has an idea.]

If you'll introduce me to Asahina-san.

[ .............. ]

[Filtered]

[godbent]

If you upset her I'll kill you. Deal.

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

I just want to meet your friends. [no matter what she said before he knows what she really meant.]

Okay.

[Filtered]

[godbent]

Fine, so do you want that now or what?

[Filtered]

[emp3thy]

Should I come to your headquarters?
