4 ~ I have never believed in Santa, ever. [audio]

...So, it's getting close to the end of the month again, but nothing weird seems to be happening. Or am I missing something? Anyone know if we might just be getting a reprieve or something? Or maybe I just shouldn't look the gift horse in the mouth.

['Because I don't believe in the Malnosso being Santa Claus to us.'

However, that's not the main purpose for this post; instead, he goes on with a filter he worked for a while on. Ideally, Asakura won't suspect it at all.]

[filtered to Shiki, Minato, Winry, Rise, SOS Brigade members who have interacted with him before, and other close-enough CR (PM me if you're not sure) // 55%]

Yo. If you guys have seen a girl with blue hair who smiles a lot, by the name of Ryoko Asakura... Well, I guess I've got something to ask of you if you do attract her attention, but I'd rather not put it on the journal, so please talk to me if you've met her.

['So what if that makes it seem like I might have a crush on her? Better that than someone hacks it and realizes that I know what Asakura is.']

In response, we're heading in to February though.

[She sees the filter there. It would be impossible to miss it and it is actually a long period she has in terms of wondering if she should hack that or not. It looks like she could, honestly. But for the moment she refrains. She has enough to worry about and she's actually uncomfortable with how little trust she feels for this boy now]

And what does February bode? Besides an extra day this year?

['Doesn't sound like she managed to hack the filter, but you never know with Haruhi. The explosions come at unusual times, like defective fireworks.']

Use your head. It's Valentines Day, obviously.

['...Ah, yes. Nami-san said something about that.']

...I guess I wasn't aware that our holidays were so important to them.

['Actually, someone mentioned it, but whatever.']

That said, maybe I should just get out of town for the duration.

What, and go hike in the mountains? If you do you better find that ski slope I've been working on. [Referencing this which he probably heard of in some meeting or another]

['And just what part of it was you working on it, Haruhi?']

I was thinking the beach, actually. Nami-san mentioned she was taking that precaution.

...Nami, huh? She's that one pirate, right? What, going to shack up with her?

['Geh!?']

W-What?! I barely know her!

You're the pervert saying you're going on a trip with her! I'll have you know I'll fine you and any of my members for any indecent actions people come to us to complain about!

['Why would anyone come to you to complain about indecent actions, Miss Regularly-Strips-Asahina-san!?']

Going on a trip with someone doesn't mean anything. And mentioning that someone had a good idea that you might follow also isn't even going on a trip with them!

Going on a trip with someone over Valentines is testament to being affected with them!

Even when the known purpose of the trip is to avoid Valentine's?

Especially then if you're going with another party.

Feel free to take Ayumu.

['Yamazaki?! How is that--

...Oh, no, wait, Aikawa.']

Will that sufficiently ensure you don't impute dishonorable motives to me?

...Yes. He's a zombie anyway.

Then if I go, I'll ask him to come along.

['Chances are I'll be too lazy to go in the end, anyway, and you probably know that, Haruhi. Or at least would accuse me of it.']

Oh, and take pictures too. Or... dammit, actually I don't have anyone like her around anymore. Hmm.

You know, it was just an idea. I haven't actually decided to go or anything.

Oh, I see.

...Yeah, so I'll probably end up just trying to stay away from it here. Like Ushiromiya said, it might just be worse if I'm far away from anyone else.

['Or alone with a zombie.']

You're buying her insight?

Well, she's been here longer than me, right? She might have tried it.

Yeah well, a lot of people have tried things like that. Last year in particular... [...No that's too painful still] Well the point is it's complicated.

...Last year, what?

['Cause that sounds more ominous than saying it probably is.']

Last... Last year was complicated. Everyone forgot we knew it was an experiment going in.
