Actually, "from the side" in the context of my "from the front row" suggests a lot more involvement than I think she planned. "From the front row" suggests she's in the audience. "From the side" suggests she's backstage, with the potential to eventually come out on stage. Now what she has become is the latter, certainly. But from what she says in Intrigues, she's quite happy to be strictly a spectator. And we're talking about her own intents before the start of the story.

It wouldn't be outrageous to say that the Tsuruya clan had some ulterior motivations with keeping their future clan head in close contact with Haruhi... |

It's never mentioned in the novels (although I think alt!Tsuruya's reaction to Kyon "assaulting" alt!Mikuru suggests it), but I've always been under the impression that Tsuruya's "family business" usually involves a bunch of mean looking guys in suits and shades calling her "anego", but that's just me... ^_^

I think the Tsuruya clan is so high up the food chain that just some regular mobsters in suits wouldn't even get the privilege of standing in the same room as them. They might make use of such people, but never directly to maintain their good reputation. Any..."muscle" they did keep on hand would probably be significantly more dangerious but able to just pass themselves off as regular servants. Think of the entire Mansions staff being composed of people like Mori...quit and unassuming people who can just fade into the backround while not making a sound...and crush your throat by strangling you with your own necktie before you even know they've walked up behind you. Skillets you ussually only find within special forces units. |

Though I think it points to them having high tech connections. |

On another note, every single person with a wierd hair color (Yuki,Kimidori,Asakura) is a Data Overmind Interface except Tsuruya-san. I can't decide if that is a co-incidence or not.
