10 ~ comparing those worlds to this boring, normal life [audio/picture]

[menial]

['Well. It sure got cold pretty fast, huh? Which means that I'm rapidly approaching the one-year mark, so I should really be proud. Or something. After burrowing myself away to avoid complications from refugees, my antisociality has reached a certain limit.

Unfortunately, I also have nothing to contribute beyond the observation about the weather which I already blithely used up there! Not that people can read my thoughts, but if they could, they'd find out. Well, they'd find out a lot of things. But who would want to anyway? It would just go on and on without any point.

Anyway, I guess I'll poorly disguise my attempt to see who's up for a random conversation with some kind of opener. Hey, if I were at home, this would be a mind-scarring Omegle session or something. At least I'm pretty sure I won't run into the usual problems stranger-chatting over the journal.'

...and so:]

So I found this in a book the other day.



Maybe this doesn't work as well over the journal, but I thought it was cool, anyway. Or at least different from discussions about fire and eternal suffering, continued kidnapping, disappearance, reappearance, cross-dressing, and so on.

...Jeez Kyon, what is it with you and young girls. Creep.

[SHE SEES ALL THESE REPLIES....]

Anyway, Kyon! The Brigade actually needs some miniature flashlights so if you've really got so little to do go hunt them down in the item shop. Actually, I've got a whole list of things, hold on-!

[menial]

['What.

Way to phrase that in the most unflattering, possibly reputation-ruining way possible, Haruhi.'

... How is it my fault that they reply to my entry?

['And way to ignore my cool optical illusion, too.']

Anyway, I didn't say that I had so little to do. Especially not a whole list's worth of little to do.

[godbent]

Don't worry! I'll make sure you life isn't listless! Hold on, five minutes! Tops! You'll thank me later!

Well shit, I missed up the HTML on that one reeeal good - sorry

[menial]

My life already isn't listless! I can compile a list right now of things that I'd rather do than thank you later!

lol it's cool it's cool...

[godbent]

Really?! Name seven and a half, right now!

[menial]

['Oh, damn!']

Looking at more optical illusions. Walking to the plaza. Gardening. -- ... Rhythmic gymnastics. Bank robberies. ...........

['Seven is a lot! Forget the half!']

Being on a boat. Buying a cat. That's seven. Buying a dog can be the extra half.

[godbent]

...Bank robberies?

[menial]

...Any robbery, I guess.

[godbent]

[.......Idea]

You know, we should totally stage from big thieving caper. Thieves are cool sometimes, you know?

[menial]

........


Actually, that's not a bad idea. I think I can guess at least a few people would be into that.

[godbent]

Exactly! Maybe that Lupin guy! I mean he's got the same name as that anime guy!

[menial]

Right. And -- ['Kusakabe-san seems pretty interested in the idea of phantom thieves. But wait, she also wanted to keep that secret.'] -- there's that woman from his world, right? Fujiko-san. They seem like partners.

[godbent]

Oh, that's true! I get the vibe where they're from is totally old school too. He can steal something and give it to his wife.

[menial]

Yeah, it's a real Bonnie and Clyde situation there, for sure. Though I would've thought you'd want to do some thieving yourself.

[godbent]

Off course! We'd be challenging them! A thief-off! We can outsource the setting the traps for it to the SSS or something!

[menial]

...Ah. Of course.

To the who?

[godbent]

The SSS - Yuri's group. It's short for something like Afterlife Battlefront. [Shinda Sekai Sensen]

[menial]

... You think they're the kind of people who can set up high-security vaults?

[godbent]

Sure, why not? It's not like it's that hard to do, I bet.

[menial]

If it's not that hard to do, it's probably not that hard to break into, either.

[godbent]

Yuri's a little like me but she's violent and insane. Trust me, it'll be hard.

[menial]

['....

"But"?']



... Well, that's a recommendation if I ever heard one.

[godbent]

See?! So she's got this.

[menial]

All right, all right, I believe you. So when will we be planning this caper for?

[godbent]

After the spelunking trip to be sure... I'll need to call the guy.
