Although the thought of making out with a gender-bent version of yourself is a bit, y'know, mind-boggling

Isn't it mentioned somewhere that the computers/devices the future people uses are implanted directly into their minds? In that case, it would be logical that they don't recognize much of the technology in the present... though it still doesn't explain why Mikuru doesn't know what a boat is or does

Always know where your towel is, eh?

Do I even have to say it?

I'd do it.

[Tyabann]

I kind of always thought that the boat thing was because they no longer had oceans in Mikuru's time.

She's the main heroine... they're going to end up doing a lot more than kissing, believe me.


Anyway, new scene.

Spoiler for September the Sixth, Day 5, Kyonko: Pangs for the Memories:

Pangs for the Memories (The Worst Pun Ever)

I need to find things to do on Saturdays. Maybe then I can surprise demanding women by informing them I have plans.

When Girl A said I would be carrying 'half the books', she actually meant that I'd be carrying three and her two. I don't need to describe how unfair this is, but I didn't complain. Out loud, of course.

In my head, I can complain all I want without her getting the least bit angry. For example, I didn't consider it before today, but books, specifically history texts, are extremely heavy. If this goes on for much longer, I think my arms are going to fall off. And we're only a hundred yards away from the library.

I feel like just dropping these things and running away. Despite what fiction may have you believe, short people are actually fairly slow, due to the length of their legs. The image of the slow, lumbering brute is completely unrealistic... if anything, the increased muscle mass would help them move even faster.


Girl A: Don't even think of running away. I know this area just as well as you do... you won't be able to hide from me for long.

Kyon: ...Why are you assuming that I'd do something like that?

Girl A: Because that's what I'd be thinking in a situation like this.

Kyon: ...? You certainly say some strange things.

Girl A: Like you don't. You're the one who talks to yourself all the time.

Kyon: You talk to yourself too!


Mysteriously, she starts sniggering uncontrollably.

...Huh?


Kyon: What's so funny...?


She manages to catch her breath.


Girl A: Something you'll never understand.

Kyon: ...Right. And why wouldn't I understand?

Girl A: It's something far beyond your level of intelligence.

Kyon: ...So you're calling me an idiot?


I swear, this woman is really asking for it.


Girl A: Well, you certainly look like one in those clothes.

Kyon: Why, what's wrong with my clothes?

Girl A: ...Looked in the mirror recently? Honestly, you look like some alleyway thug who listens to hip-hop while beating up children.


What a wonderful analogy. Where did that one come from?


Girl A: Plus, you look way too much like an, um, friend of mine.


...'Friend'? She definitely hesitated before saying that.

...I wonder. Guess I'll tease her a bit.


Kyon: Would this 'friend' happen to be your boyfriend?


Girl A nearly drops her books.


Girl A: Arrrrrgh! I don't even want to think about that right now! Thank you for making my day terrible!

Kyon: So, would that be a 'yes', or...?

Girl A: It's a no! Definitely a no! I never want to even talk to that person again! Now stop prying!

Kyon: ...Sounds more like a 'yes' to me.


In retaliation, she throws a book at my head.


---

We finally got to the SOS Brigade Meeting Place at Kitaguchi Station after nearly twenty minutes of pain without even a break. Sighing, I dump the books I'm carrying down on a nearby bench, which I then sit down on myself..

Girl A: ...Why are you stopping here?

Kyon: Why? ...It's the station, right?

---

IF Thief = True, THEN

Besides, it's where I dropped you yesterday. I figure this is a good place to say goodbye.

---

Girl A: Not this station. The other station.

Kyon: What other station!? There's like--

Girl A: Kouyouen Station. It's only a bit further. What, you can't handle it?

Kyon: ...You tricked me, you little brat. You knew I'd think it was this place... I'd never have agreed to haul these things all the way to the school!


You totally owe me answers to two questions for this.


Girl A: ...Tch. Whatever, you can't refuse now, you already agreed to help me.

Kyon: At least let me take a little break.

Girl A: ...I can't believe you need a break. Look at me, I'm perfectly fine.

Kyon: You're only carrying two books! And for that matter, they're the lightest ones!

Girl: Why are you complaining? This is about the only thing a guy is useful for. Come on, Muscles. Carry those books like you were born to do!


She encourages me like how one would encourage a dog.

I want to throw a book at her, but I resist the impulse. Not only would the sheer weight of these things probably kill her, but I'd end up dead too if the library found out we were doing this kind of thing to its precious books.


Kyon: Say whatever you want, I'm not moving until I feel like it.


And there was nothing she could do about it.


Girl A: ......

Aside from throw another book at me.

---

Just as I was getting ready to leave, however, something happened.


Stomach: Grooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaan.


Girl A's stomach began to hold a conversation with itself.


Girl A: Ow! Ow! Dammit, not again...

Kyon: Something the matter?

Girl A: Of course something's the matter! I wouldn't be doubled over in pain if everything was just peachy! I-I haven't eaten anything in over a day... this happened after we separated this morning, too.

Stomach: Grooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaan.

Girl A: Owwwww. I'm gonna die, seriously gonna die, owwww.


She really does look like she's in a lot of pain... although I'd certainly enjoy telling her to just deal with it, like she does to me, I...


Kyon: Is there anything I can--

Girl A: No, no, it's fine, great, it should pass in a...

Stomach: Grooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaan.

Girl A: Why...


...

[DECISION POINT HERE]
1)...Take pity on her and get her something to eat.
2)I need to save money. I'll just be on my way now...


Knight (I)

Kyon: Stay here and watch the books. I'll be back in five minutes.

Girl A: What are you gonna--

Stomach: Grooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaan.


I return, five minutes later, arms full of cheap, filling snacks.


Kyon: Here. Enjoy.


Girl A doesn't say a word. She just gives me a look that seems like it's about to cry from gratitude. Or maybe that was just from the pain of starvation.

After devouring the food I brought her, she finally seems to have the energy and the room in her mouth to thank me.


Girl A: Why are you so ridiculously nice? Anyone normal wouldn't even have agreed to carry these books in the first place.


I'd love to say “It's because I have a crush on you” just to see her reaction, but I don't want any more books thrown at my head. Furthermore, I don't really think I have the guts.


Girl A: I owe you so much already. I don't even know where I'm supposed to begin repaying you.


Well, you could stop being such a brat most of the time.


Kyon: ...Actually, you could start by telling me who you are and why you haven't eaten in over a day.

Girl A: ...Figured. Alright then, that's a fair trade, I suppose ...Where should I begin?


Petty, and Flagless

...I'm finished here.

Stomach: Grooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaan.

I carried her books this far, and I have other things to do. Feeding her would be beyond unreasonable, and it's entirely her problem.

I'll just quietly slip away while she's nearly in tears...

I don't make it ten feet before she notices.


Girl A: ...Exactly where are you going?

Kyon: Home

Girl A: Oi. You said you'd help carry these books, right?

Kyon: Maybe I lied? Anyway, I'll see you around. I've suddenly become really busy.


Girl A straightens up.


Girl A: Hold on a minute. You're going to leave this starving, broke, homeless girl with more books than she can reliably carry to her own devices? And this doesn't weigh on your conscience at all?


Well, I wouldn't go as far as that, but that actually sounds pretty accurate.

Girl A:...

... Her expression could strike fear into an allosaur. ...Hold on, wasn't she supposed to be having stomach cramps.

Stomach: Rooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaar.


Ah. Well, I think I'll be running away now. That sounds like a good idea.


Girl A: IDIOT!


The first book comes flying. I narrowly dodge it.


Girl A: DUMBASS!


The second book flies at my ankles. I jump over that one.


Girl A: MORON!

The third book comes flying, which is odd considering how much trouble even I had lifting it. I don't dodge that one.

...

When I came to, it was getting dark, and Girl A and the books were nowhere in sight... as was, it turned out later, all the money in my wallet.

I was also in an alleyway quite a distance from where I fell unconscious... I found it difficult to believe that she dragged me here herself.

...Maybe her 'friend' from earlier helped?

Ah well, no point into worrying about that now. What's done is done, and I think I need an asprin.

...I'll probably have to offer my apologies to Girl A the next time we meet, though. Despite what I say, I do feel kind of terrible about just leaving her there.

By the way, those thoughts were all before I found out that I had technically been mugged. I won't be apologizing to her anytime soon, believe me.

I think I'll just go home.

Seriously a wonderful analogy!

So now we see that Kyonko = Kyon - Aversion to violence - Height + Sarcasm + Snarkiness + Bravery.

Kyon just got owned by his gender-bent self

Selfcest is fun!
Just so you know, I support all selfcest pairings.

Isn't it mentioned somewhere that the computers/devices the future people uses are implanted directly into their minds? In that case, it would be logical that they don't recognize much of the technology in the present... though it still doesn't explain why Mikuru doesn't know what a boat is or does

I think it was Mikuru (big) in Book 4 when she talked about the TTPD...
or was it Book 7?

Wait, I thought he said there was. Like, at the start of Remote Island Syndrome.
Now you know how broken I am. At least by Haruhi.

She's the main heroine... they're going to end up doing a lot more than kissing, believe me.

I was also in an alleyway quite a distance from where I fell unconscious... I found it difficult to believe that she dragged me here herself.

...Maybe her 'friend' from earlier helped?

Ah well, no point into worrying about that now. What's done is done, and I think I need an asprin.

...I'll probably have to offer my apologies to Girl A the next time we meet, though. Despite what I say, I do feel kind of terrible about just leaving her there.

By the way, those thoughts were all before I found out that I had technically been mugged. I won't be apologizing to her anytime soon, believe me.

I think I'll just go home.

Lovely scene. Too bad my throat's effed up today, so I couldn't laugh as much as I wanted to.

Ok, I admit that sounds a bit wrong....

No I won't mug myself.
But putting myself in Kyonko's situation, if I had been sleeping 2 days in the streets with stomach pangs that pierced the heavens and some guy who was actually me agreed to help (albeit without telling him which train station) walked out on me, I would.

And I would enjoy it.

Self-cest and mugging yourself is two different levels of wrong, my friend. Clearly, we have different views on that

I would just take it that I'm 'borrowing' money from my alternate self. Hey, technically we're the same person, right?

[s07195]

sorry for double posting (and way too many posts for the last few pages),
but if there's going to be something happening with Kyon and Kyonko, WHAT IF HARUKI OR HARUHI FOUND OUT?

anyways, sorry. I'll be taking a short vacation from posting to make up.

EDIT: forget the double post

Oh come on.

It'd be interesting at the very least to see if you did exactly the same thing at exactly the same time.

Or did what the other wanted you to. XD

Ekhem... According to TV Tropes there is high probability she would be hot as hell. I might feel tempted to experiment a bit. Since she would be reasonably similar to me, she might want to try it as well. Once. And never talk about it again.

Kyon: Would this 'friend' happen to be your boyfriend?

Score for Kyon! I half-expected Kyonko to retort "And that unreasonable woman you mentioned is your girlfriend, yes?"

Pangs for the Memories (The Worst Pun Ever)

I need to find things to do on Saturdays. Maybe then I can surprise demanding women by informing them I have plans.

When Girl A said I would be carrying 'half the books', she actually meant that I'd be carrying three and her two. I don't need to describe how unfair this is, but I didn't complain. Out loud, of course.

In my head, I can complain all I want without her getting the least bit angry. For example, I didn't consider it before today, but books, specifically history texts, are extremely heavy. If this goes on for much longer, I think my arms are going to fall off. And we're only a hundred yards away from the library.

I feel like just dropping these things and running away. Despite what fiction may have you believe, short people are actually fairly slow, due to the length of their legs. The image of the slow, lumbering brute is completely unrealistic... if anything, the increased muscle mass would help them move even faster.


Girl A: Don't even think of running away. I know this area just as well as you do... you won't be able to hide from me for long.

Kyon: ...Why are you assuming that I'd do something like that?

Girl A: Because that's what I'd be thinking in a situation like this.

Kyon: ...? You certainly say some strange things.

Girl A: Like you don't. You're the one who talks to yourself all the time.

Kyon: You talk to yourself too!


Mysteriously, she starts sniggering uncontrollably.

...Huh?


Kyon: What's so funny...?


She manages to catch her breath.


Girl A: Something you'll never understand.

Kyon: ...Right. And why wouldn't I understand?

Girl A: It's something far beyond your level of intelligence.

Kyon: ...So you're calling me an idiot?


I swear, this woman is really asking for it.


Girl A: Well, you certainly look like one in those clothes.

Kyon: Why, what's wrong with my clothes?

Girl A: ...Looked in the mirror recently? Honestly, you look like some alleyway thug who listens to hip-hop while beating up children.


What a wonderful analogy. Where did that one come from?


Girl A: Plus, you look way too much like an, um, friend of mine.


...'Friend'? She definitely hesitated before saying that.

...I wonder. Guess I'll tease her a bit.


Kyon: Would this 'friend' happen to be your boyfriend?


Girl A nearly drops her books.


Girl A: Arrrrrgh! I don't even want to think about that right now! Thank you for making my day terrible!

Kyon: So, would that be a 'yes', or...?

Girl A: It's a no! Definitely a no! I never want to even talk to that person again! Now stop prying!

Kyon: ...Sounds more like a 'yes' to me.


In retaliation, she throws a book at my head.


---

We finally got to the SOS Brigade Meeting Place at Kitaguchi Station after nearly twenty minutes of pain without even a break. Sighing, I dump the books I'm carrying down on a nearby bench, which I then sit down on myself..

Girl A: ...Why are you stopping here?

Kyon: Why? ...It's the station, right?

---

IF Thief = True, THEN

Besides, it's where I dropped you yesterday. I figure this is a good place to say goodbye.

---

Girl A: Not this station. The other station.

Kyon: What other station!? There's like--

Girl A: Kouyouen Station. It's only a bit further. What, you can't handle it?

Kyon: ...You tricked me, you little brat. You knew I'd think it was this place... I'd never have agreed to haul these things all the way to the school!


You totally owe me answers to two questions for this.


Girl A: ...Tch. Whatever, you can't refuse now, you already agreed to help me.

Kyon: At least let me take a little break.

Girl A: ...I can't believe you need a break. Look at me, I'm perfectly fine.

Kyon: You're only carrying two books! And for that matter, they're the lightest ones!

Girl: Why are you complaining? This is about the only thing a guy is useful for. Come on, Muscles. Carry those books like you were born to do!


She encourages me like how one would encourage a dog.

I want to throw a book at her, but I resist the impulse. Not only would the sheer weight of these things probably kill her, but I'd end up dead too if the library found out we were doing this kind of thing to its precious books.


Kyon: Say whatever you want, I'm not moving until I feel like it.


And there was nothing she could do about it.


Girl A: ......

Aside from throw another book at me.

---

Just as I was getting ready to leave, however, something happened.


Stomach: Grooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaan.


Girl A's stomach began to hold a conversation with itself.


Girl A: Ow! Ow! Dammit, not again...

Kyon: Something the matter?

Girl A: Of course something's the matter! I wouldn't be doubled over in pain if everything was just peachy! I-I haven't eaten anything in over a day... this happened after we separated this morning, too.

Stomach: Grooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaan.

Girl A: Owwwww. I'm gonna die, seriously gonna die, owwww.


She really does look like she's in a lot of pain... although I'd certainly enjoy telling her to just deal with it, like she does to me, I...


Kyon: Is there anything I can--

Girl A: No, no, it's fine, great, it should pass in a...

Stomach: Grooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaan.

Girl A: Why...


...

[DECISION POINT HERE]
1)...Take pity on her and get her something to eat.
2)I need to save money. I'll just be on my way now...


Knight (I)

Kyon: Stay here and watch the books. I'll be back in five minutes.

Girl A: What are you gonna--

Stomach: Grooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaan.


I return, five minutes later, arms full of cheap, filling snacks.


Kyon: Here. Enjoy.


Girl A doesn't say a word. She just gives me a look that seems like it's about to cry from gratitude. Or maybe that was just from the pain of starvation.

After devouring the food I brought her, she finally seems to have the energy and the room in her mouth to thank me.


Girl A: Why are you so ridiculously nice? Anyone normal wouldn't even have agreed to carry these books in the first place.


I'd love to say “It's because I have a crush on you” just to see her reaction, but I don't want any more books thrown at my head. Furthermore, I don't really think I have the guts.


Girl A: I owe you so much already. I don't even know where I'm supposed to begin repaying you.


Well, you could stop being such a brat most of the time.


Kyon: ...Actually, you could start by telling me who you are and why you haven't eaten in over a day.

Girl A: ...Figured. Alright then, that's a fair trade, I suppose ...Where should I begin?


Petty, and Flagless

...I'm finished here.

Stomach: Grooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaan.

I carried her books this far, and I have other things to do. Feeding her would be beyond unreasonable, and it's entirely her problem.

I'll just quietly slip away while she's nearly in tears...

I don't make it ten feet before she notices.


Girl A: ...Exactly where are you going?

Kyon: Home

Girl A: Oi. You said you'd help carry these books, right?

Kyon: Maybe I lied? Anyway, I'll see you around. I've suddenly become really busy.


Girl A straightens up.


Girl A: Hold on a minute. You're going to leave this starving, broke, homeless girl with more books than she can reliably carry to her own devices? And this doesn't weigh on your conscience at all?


Well, I wouldn't go as far as that, but that actually sounds pretty accurate.

Girl A:...

... Her expression could strike fear into an allosaur. ...Hold on, wasn't she supposed to be having stomach cramps.

Stomach: Rooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaar.


Ah. Well, I think I'll be running away now. That sounds like a good idea.


Girl A: IDIOT!


The first book comes flying. I narrowly dodge it.


Girl A: DUMBASS!


The second book flies at my ankles. I jump over that one.


Girl A: MORON!

The third book comes flying, which is odd considering how much trouble even I had lifting it. I don't dodge that one.

...

When I came to, it was getting dark, and Girl A and the books were nowhere in sight... as was, it turned out later, all the money in my wallet.

I was also in an alleyway quite a distance from where I fell unconscious... I found it difficult to believe that she dragged me here herself.

...Maybe her 'friend' from earlier helped?

Ah well, no point into worrying about that now. What's done is done, and I think I need an asprin.

Hmm, this scene was weird. The normal path (i.e. the one in which you are not a jerk) is normal. Kyonko is a bit too tsundereish but I can understand her bad mood. And it is only natural eventually realizing how much of a jerk she was being and how nice Kyon was.

But the other option was a bit weird. Starting with Kyon passing off from a book on his head. It shouldn't be that easy. The book is heavy, but Kyonko is not that strong. And what happened to Kyon miraculous evading skills?

The weirdest part is Kyonko mugging him, however. Actually, I believe it wasn't the case. She probably just leave he unconcious there and went 'home'. Then some random delinquent saw the oportunity and rob the guy. I really don't believe Kyonko would be that much of a jerk. Stealing a bit of money to eat? Maybe. Dragging him to an alley and just leave he there? Unlikely.

Actually, reading again, Kyon also don't believe she would be able to drag him. He tought it was Haruki (the 'friend' form erlier), but we know it wasn't. I found unlikely any other member of the Brigade would do that as well.

Nah. Kyon is just as snarky and brave as Kyonko. He is not as sarcastic, but he had never been sleeping in streets in another world. Kyon can also be violent when he is really pissed. But I guess being a girl in anime wolrd give you the right to be violent to any guy.

Meh. Would you mug YOUR alternate self?

No. Nor I think Kyonko would. Remember, she couldn't have dragged Kyon to the alley, and you know Haruki didn't helped.

Haruki would probably be so joyful he found Kyonko he wouldn't mind. Or maybe he would try to 'impress' her summoning shinjis to beat Kyon or something. You should read the old scenes, btw.

For Haruhi, well, I guess this is bound to happen. She will not be happy.

PP:
By the way, I didn't get at all the pun.

[dragon4dudes]

Nice scene Kaisos. Though I don't think Kyonko would have the strength to throw a heavy text. Then again, it could be 1337 adrenaline P0WUHZ from being angry.

Especially if that guy happens to be one you like.

It has to deal with "pangs" you get in your stomach when you're hungry. A synonym would be "stomach pains" but pangs is the correct term.
Haha.
I love bad puns.

[dragon4dudes]

Aren't all puns bad?

[Kogetsu Shirogane]

There are some good puns... it's just that the bad ones are more prevalent.

Big, huge history text. Kyon can't dodge EVERYTHING, he's not Vino.

Kyonko doesn't really consider Kyon to be a human being yet... most of the time, she seems him as just another aspect of herself, which is why it's okay to steal from him, like someone else said.

And it was Yuuki and Mitsuuru who dragged him into the alleyway. Mitsuuru's idea.

Kyonko, as a tsundere, is surprisingly strong when angry.
