What I really like about Kyon is that he's honest with her (partailly) and calls her out on her bull. It annoys her, but thats what she really needs. And since he's so honest with her (as far as she knows) she trusts him immensly.

And technically Kyon was honest with her. He told her everything, she merely refused to believe him. So once she know the truth one day, Kyon can give her a "I told you so" and she can't get mad at him.

I think trust is more than just prescriptive or prospective actions - i.e. will or will not. I mean, what's trust between best friends? Trust between lovers? I think, drawing on inspiration from (commwealth common law legal) trusts, I think one thing is that the trustee will have the other's interest in mind (as said above). You know what side they're ultimate on, and you know that they'll deliever as best as they can.
That said, the missing piece of course as far as I can remember, isn't just that 'SOS-dan is alien time travelling espers' but that 'you are have powers to rival God.' Spoiler for Last chapter:

I just read the epilogue translation. Thanks to the translator and the editor.
I can see that two future events being set up in the Epilogue: Tsuruya's flower viewing party and Kyon's middle school class reunion(with Sasaki). It can be slightly annoying when Koizumi is your main source of information because you feel that you're not getting the whole picture from him. His infodump had some interesting tidbits. Now, a few interesting things I noticed... Spoiler for epilogue spoilers and speculation.:
I am psyched for whenever we see more of Surprise translated. Last edited by AbZeroNow; 2011-06-18 at 16:17. Reason: spelling |

I just got a feeling he was told to hold his distance because she is nearly as important to the Espers as Haruhi is. You know, your boss's daughter and all.

I've been sort of skimming spoilers because I still want some surprises, so this post is actually rather old, but I just noticed something last night that I hadn't caught the first time I looked at it since I was skimming. Post is here on LJ.
So what I'm wondering is, can someone confirm/deny that Spoiler:

Of course, I'd like to hear from those who can read the original Japanese for their take on that too. Last edited by AbZeroNow; 2011-06-21 at 15:38. Reason: added something and changed word to convey meaning better |

No, not really. First of all, it's not that kind of story, with sparkles and bubbles and rainbows everywhere. Secondly, I'm not exactly a supporter of the "Kyon is the actual god" theory. Well, if Haruhi wanted him to have wings and believed it was possible, it might would have happened, but she was unconscious, so...
