1 ~ when did I stop believing in Santa Claus? [audio/action]
[action]
[A teenage boy is extricating himself with some difficulty from having been dumped, or appearing, in the middle of the fountain in the center of the village. He's muttering to himself and clambering out. He's dressed in the generic-enough North High uniform, but of more interest may be what he's saying -- which is picked up by the split-open journal next to him.]
...Really, Haruhi? After all of that, I'm in some other time and place again?! Oh, boy. She really just doesn't stop... Where the hell is it this time?
[Once he gets up and brushes himself off, he can be found staring with slightly less bewilderment than you might expect at his surroundings.]

'Seriously, I don't want to think about this. I don't think I get any of it. Maybe I can get out of this conversation immediately.'
[But he doesn't.]
[Audio]
How are you familiar with Haruhi? Are you from the same world?
[Audio]
Yeah, that's right.
[Audio]
[Audio]
Well, that's good, I guess.

[Things like that tend to happen when he's about to say his name; it's very odd.]

You know what, screw it, I can say that.'
I'm always having complications.
[Audio]
Unfortunately Luceti will bring you more.

[Audio]
Okay. See you around.
