menial | 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.]

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.']

[Blankly.]

What about it?

It was my move. [And a very good move at that.]

Your turn!

...What did you do with your move, exactly?

[Isn't it obvious?! Smacking her journal again!]

That! Now it's your go, time is almost up!!

......

I don't get it, Yotsuba. Forgive my stupidity.

Ohhh! You're pretending you don't know but you really do, don't you?! It's a trick, you're trying to trick Yotsuba! Whoah, you're good at this!

[Oh gosh now she's really on the ropes. She had no idea Kyon was a pro at the winning game!]

['Sometimes I wonder if this is normal for a six-year-old or she has a mental disability.']

I certainly wouldn't tell you whether I was pretending or not.

...You wouldn't tell Yotsuba if you were pretending, or not? So Yotsuba gets no hints? Aww.

[Yotsuba is mildly confused?]

The winning game is cutthroat, Yotsuba.

The winning game is something else now?! Gyaaaah!!

[Yotsuba is confused. It hurt itself in confusion?]

['That something else would be "insane".']

Everything changes, Yotsuba.

Like... Like the caterpillar into a butterfly again, right? Like that, changing. Evoloution.

Precisely.
