[Action / Video]

[The follow stuff happens in the plaza but the journal also records it. Either Haruhi has propped up her journal to record it or told one of her underlings to record it. And after the speech portion of it, she'll pick up her journal to answer questions or otherwise talk to people who responded.

So our seen begins with a young lady wearing a fluffy white coat and wielding a megaphone. She brushes back her hair (now at her shoulder blades or so) and wonder if maybe she should trim it soon. Well, whatever. A deep inhale, a grin to herself, and she starts off on the megaphone]

Attention, Luceti! Some of you feel the tedium of every day here, right?! People get overwhelmed by the tragedies everyone here goes through, and then... what? A lot of people decide to just shut off and become depressed sticks in the mud or boozers. Obviously, you can't help everyone who goes down that route or anything and not everyone wants to live a more worthwhile life - but! I'm here to tell you that the Spreading Excitement All Over the World With Haruhi Suzumiya Brigade, SOS-Brigade for short, is offering alternatives!

[She pauses here for breath, and taps the pin badge on her chest]

Obviously, some of you probably have already seen some of the events we put on, or maybe participate in Hydra Social, which my underling, Oswald, manages! And you've thought "how can I have as much fun as those people?" Well, right now, you have two options! Either you can join the SOS-Brigade obviously, or you can sign up to get a list of twenty suggestions from me for a more fulfilling month. If you sign up for that though, be ready to complete at least half of it and show me the results!

[And she bows now, setting down the megaphone before she says the next part]

That's it, Haruhi Suzumiya, over and out!

[Voice]

Okay! Everyone in Luceti more or less stable from that last experiment? Good! Maybe you're not, but we're done with all the apologies and public fallout right, right? And most of the new feathers are in by now.

Well, I'm here today to inform you about the details of a group you guys might not be super familiar with if you're new and might have some misconceptions about if you're not. That's right, I'm here to talk to you about the one and only SOS-Brigade, and what our new and revised Brigade system will be bringing to you guys. That's right, revel in our generosity, because starting now the SOS-Brigade is pooling its talent to more than every be the leg Luceti stands on!

( IC explanation of the new Brigade structure )

So you hear that Luceti, stop by! ..Also, because of these changes, we're also recruiting! Any potential applicants or people who need a life coach or something, speak up and we'll consider you for being welcomed into the fold.

-Additionally, is Brave Vesperia still around? I need either them or someone else who an work with a large scale carpentry job. Also, Paprika or any other therapist, ring me!

...Oh right, and any questions, ask them now.

Haruhi Suzumiya, over and out!

[The symbol moves now for her to have a big grin at the book]

( for the current members )

[OOC INTEL: The Brigade's revised information can be seen here. Which can be compared to the current information here. The current information will be replaced in the next few days with the new stuff (but I'll compile it elsewhere in case you want to review the old version for some reason). The Brigade's appointments for incoming requests are here. Admittedly these are major changes, so their implementation might be slow. Any further questions you have though might be directed here.]

[Action - The 18th through the 21st]
[Continuing from the incident on the 17th, Haruhi Suzumiya (who is now about eleven years old) is spending much of her time wandering around Luceti. Looking for people who look interesting, playing with things and people, and generally out to see if there's anything interesting. If everyone the other day was right she'll be back to "normal" soon, so. Might as well enjoy herself right now

Feel free to run into her wherever in town]

[Voice - The 22nd (today)]
[But today it's thunderstorm city, so even if she was out while it was raining yesterday, she can't really do that today! So she tries to work with the journal today! Yeah!]

Hey everyone! ...I'm Haruhi, is there anyone else I apparently know who I haven't met yet?

[As with the other post, replies with be with godsquirt]

[Voice / Action]

The school term's ending next week, days are hotter - well, aside from today, I guess - and longer, and I just got back from a beach trip. It's really starting to feel like summer, huh? Summer! If only we had chlorine... I guess we could still do bug catching, but there aren't even cicadas here, so the only interesting thing left is fireflies...

[...]

Ooo-kay, do you guys know what July 7th is? You only get two guesses, so you better get it right! Go!

[She laughs at the end of this. Rena's gone home and she's aware of this by now... but she's trying to keep in high spirits. In light of other things going on it's better that way and in light that the casino is finally done, all she needs to do is pick a date. Not to mention her boat is done even if she needs to furnish it... speaking of]

Also, a flag. Boats need flags, right? Someone step up help us out with that, I'll give you some cookies for it - home baked, of course.

[...Hm There's a chirp from Sekai in the background, and she nods] Or furniture. Summer just makes you want to try new things, right? It's like with your cells, you need to replace them now and again, so if anyone needs some old chairs or couches or what not I'm willing or organize a trade. Just this once, we'll go for an even trade - for quality like the stuff in my house, this is a real bargain!

[She said without consulting her housemates. As a result of this, one might find Haruhi sitting on the porch of House 10 imperiously watching for anyone strong enough to pass the house that she can force into being a laborer for her. There's a lot of random furniture that while it's been there a while she's not super-attached to, and might as well go for some new things. Sekai is also derping around in the yard as only a large rooster can]

[Voice]

[...Okay, she can do this. She's normal, finally (or so she'd like to convince herself) and because of that it's time to get to business.]

...Okay, Brigade, if you didn't get the memo yet we've lost a lot of members- including Naoki and Yoohoo, among others. [Her voice dips. But then there's a slapping sound and she presses on, her tone getting brighter] But that's beside the point! New feathers, there's a lot of you guys now, and old feathers too, some of you guys must want some excitement in your life, right?! Ever feel that budding sense of your existence here being meaningless?! Well, think no further, because for a short time only the SOS-Brigade is accepting applications for new members to our illustrious ranks!

But some of you might think "Wow I'm lame and have been living under a rock and/or haven't read the guide, what is this completely amazing sounding organization," right? Since you asked, I'll answer free of charge!

[and the following part is transcribed with writing as well as spoken. The symbol itself is shown to the journal in the form of her putting a photo-copied version of it up to the camera]
( explaining the Brigade )

So there you have it! And, like I said, we're accepting applications! So hurry up and speak up so that I, Haruhi Suzumiya, can process you and determine if you have the right stuff!

[Action]

[Buuut, once that announcement is made in ther break time for school at about 10:30 AM (and thus replies might be later in the day) Haruhi has places to be. She's being low-key about it, but it is White Day, after all. So, during her lunch break at school she sets off- she had her Winry Day yesterday, but she owes Winry something in return. Thus, with a bag over her shoulder around 12:30PM she's made her way to Winry's house to knock.

From there, back to school, finishing it up, the Brigade meeting... and then loitering around town is her MO for the afternoon. She got chocolate for all of the guys in the Brigade (plus Neku and maybe some others) after all, and even she's not voicing it she expects things back from there. ...And Minato. And Keiichi. But she's not going to press the issue there because even she's not sure she wants them. But if you see her lurking around the square in the afternoon that's why.]

[Voice/Video]

[For the record, this post comes a few hours after this entry but on the same day. Haruhi is making an important dictation! Oh and for the record she currently has waxy green skin, red eyes, long brown hair, but otherwise looks relatively normal. She was somewhat offput she couldn't bend spoons. But either way, she now sets off her dictation with]

Hey! Some of you heard the slander of those impostor mes earlier, right?! Those two were my insubordinate idiot minions, none of them actions or words should be considered a representation of the SOS-Brigade in the least, got it? [She makes a sage nod here, folding her arms, before spreading them wide and shrugging]

With that in mind though... The SOS-Brigade is now open and willing to accept new members! Right now we're quite strong, sporting my vice chief Rena, my Deputy, Taichi [And now she starts to list on her fingers, counting them off] Minako, Mikage, Kurt, Naoki, Yoohoo, Uriko, Leon, Keiichi, Hanyuu, and of course the one and only Anne of Green Gables! Our illustrious order is the most impressive organization within this barrier, bar none, so if you want to do something worthwhile and fun with your life here, then please step forward! I'm feeling generous, so we'll accept all applications right now for consideration in the final stage!

[Inhale and then exhale] What's more, if you have a mystery to be solved, had a mystery to be solved, or will have a mystery to be solved in the near future, come to our HQ in the center of town and we'll look into it. Alright?

[She smiles, solutes here before-] The real Haruhi Suzumiya, over and out!

[Action]

[And then... later tonight, as promised, she'll be heading over to Winry/Hughes's place ( House 23 ) to pick her up... or hang out there. But the point is she's going over there to see her. Later tonight. She had a long day, okay.

Also if you want to action with her at other points this weekend (except Sunday afternoon because lol, Winry Day) see here, she'll be an alien all that time. All replies to both cases will be with godbroken]

[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]
