2 ~ in truth, this sort of silly question holds no real significance for me [audio/action]

['End of the month. Check. Strange things appearing for no reason. Check. This would be, if I had the choice, the part where I run and hide from the experiment. However, the content that appeared is just bizarre.']

[audio]

"A fart will follow you into the car, ruining your date."

This sounds like one of those bad Western comedies. You know, the ones with lazy slacker heroes who're forced into wacky adventures...

['Wait, if I had to honestly describe my own life... As they say at home, the eye wax laughing at the snot*.'

And so he decides to leave it at that.]

[action]

[Today, then, Kyon will be found wandering around in the Welcome Center and the plaza, annoyed, because, quite according to the horoscope, his keys are missing.

'This does not bode well. Well, I guess "against all odds, you will accomplish a basic task" isn't ominous so much as simply insulting. But "you will have a chance encounter with romance today so take a bath, for God's sake"... That one could be problematic. In all kinds of ways.']

[*ooc: Japanese idiom, something like "the pot calling the kettle black".]

...that's really a saying?

[Focusing on the most important part first, of course.]

Well, I think I've at least heard it before...

['I hope I didn't make it up. That would say more about me than I intended.']

Um.. That one at least isn't that bad, right? It only sounds a little funny..

[ Madoka giggles, a little bit awkwardly, perhaps. ]

I suppose if you dwell on it, you'd realize it sounds like the kind of problem which will at least go away pretty quickly.

But I'm not sure I should think about it that closely.

Why wouldn't you be sure about that? It sounds a little embarassing, but at least it's not.. too big of a problem, right? [ especially not when some of her predictions sound more sad or omnious. ]

I just don't know how much attention I want to devote to horoscopes, particularly when they dwell on, ah, that.

['A bit embarrassing to say it to a girl, anyway.']

Sounds like other people have had some worse ones, true.

It's a little strange they appeared in our journals though.. Normally there aren't any horoscopes or anything like that there.

Maybe something special is going on.. [ ponder. ] Or maybe they just made a new horoscope function for the journals.

You got one too, huh? Has everyone?

...It sounds a bit like these 'experiments' I've heard about, though I thought that might involve more scalpels and drugs.

It seems that way.. I wonder if everyone got completely different ones too.

A.. ah, don't worry, usually the experiments aren't anything like that. They're a little bit weird, but they aren't going to cut us or anything.. [ the last part is said perhaps a bit awkwardly since that's a pretty scary idea. ]

['Reassuring. As long as cutting isn't the only form of physical damage forbidden, I guess I can keep my spirits up.']

Yours are completely different, huh? Can I ask what they are?
