@Jintor: +1 that comment. Kyonspeak is vital and weird tidbits like that shouldn't be neutered.

It would be enough for the depressing things in life to only exist in reality.
It is because that I think the birth of a story... is from people dreaming of a happy ending. ~Misaka Shiori
Surprisingly, Haruhi actually lowers her head, bites on her lower lip and only opens up after some time.
"I had the strangest dream. I dreamed that you had sneaked into my room and you didn't talk like you would have... urr, and you did things that you wouldn't do. I found it odd... in the end, I punched you hard and you ran off! that's an odd dream! Right? But it didn't feel quite like a dream."
If that was a dream, then this would be a continuation of the dream. As I look at the vexed Haruhi with locked eyebrows, Koizumi heads to my direction.
"I, as well."
He stares right at my face.
"You appeared in my room as well. The appearance might have been you, but the behaviour was just terrifying... anyways, you did things that you wouldn't do."
I start to get frightened out of the blue. My sight moves away from that smiling face of Koizumi, seemingly up to something, and turns instead towards Asahina-san. This is the real McCoy. One look and there's no question about it. How could I have mistaken that person as her? Whether it'd be the feel or in her actions, she cannot compare to the bona fide Asahina-san.
Perhaps my gaze embarrasses her. Asahina-san blushes. Did I appear before her? Just as I assume that to be the case-
"Suzumiya-san came into my room."
Her fingers are caught together and move uneasily.
"That strange Suzumiya-san... I don't know how to describe it, was like a fake..."
Yes, definitely a fake. That is for sure, the problem for this to have happened. Why did fake versions of ourselves appear in each other's room? Asahina-san in mine, I went to Haruhi and Koizumi's rooms, and Haruhi in Asahina-san's room...
"Nagato." I keep pressing. "Who came into your room?"
The stoic façade of Nagato, who is in a t-shirt as is Asahina-san, lifts up and looks directly into me:
"You."
Having said that in a whisper, she slowly closes her eyelids.
Spoiler for :'(:
Surprisingly, Haruki actually lowers his head, glances away for a few seconds before looking back at me and parting his lips a bit.
"I had the strangest dream. I dreamed that you had sneaked into my room and you didn't talk like you would have... err, and you did things that you wouldn't do. I found it odd... in the end, I pushed you away and you ran off! that's an odd dream! Right? But it didn't feel quite like a dream."
If that was a dream, then this would be a continuation of the dream. As I look at the vexed Haruki with locked eyebrows, Koizumi heads to my direction.
"I, as well."
She stares right at my face.
"You appeared in my room as well. The appearance might have been you, but the behaviour was just interesting, but quite terrifying... anyways, you did things that you wouldn't do."
I start to get frightened out of the blue. My sight moves away from that smiling face of Koizumi, seemingly up to something, and turns instead towards Asahina-kun. This is the real McCoy. One look and there's no question about it. How could I have mistaken that person as him? Whether it'd be the feel or in his actions, she cannot compare to the bona fide Asahina-kun!
Perhaps my gaze embarrasses him. Asahina-kun blushes. Did I appear before him? Just as I assume that to be the case-
"Suzumiya-kun came into my room."
His fingers are caught together and move uneasily.
"That strange Suzumiya-kun... I don't know how to describe it, was like a fake..."
Yes, definitely a fake. That is for sure, the problem for this to have happened. Why did fake versions of ourselves appear in each other's room? Asahina-kun in mine, I went to Haruhi and Koizumi's rooms, and Haruhi in Asahina-kun's room...
"Nagato-kun." I keep pressing. "Who came into your room?"
The stoic façade of Nagato, who is only wearing pants as like Asahina-san, lifts up and looks directly into me:
"You."
Having said that in a whisper, he slowly closes his eyelids.
And then-
"...Yuuki?!"
With the background music composed of Haruki's puzzled shout on the side, I witness an unbelievable scene.
Nagato, the very Nagato Yuuki falls, as if pressed down by an unseen demonic hand, flat on the ground.
"Yuuki! What happened? Yuuki..."
Small edit here and there.
I don't think the "who is in a t-shirt as is Asahina-san" should be included in well the gender bending, because I don't think girls get excitement out of seeing a guy in a shirt with no pants unbuttoning his shirt. If not shouldn't it be seeing them shirtless only wearing pants or something?
But that could be me.
@On the side note about the Haruki/Kyonko kiss thing:
It might be better just cutting it off with "Wait is he inserting his tongue in my mouth?!" or something before Kyonko wakes up hugging a pillow? I don't know something about Haruki trying to advance so much when Haruhi tries to protest irks me.
Also she could say something along the lines of "You look much better without those silly headphones/hairband in your hair do you know that?" except much more Tsundere, so that it COULD work out when the next day she see's him not wearing his badass headphones/hairband, and comment on how he looks good without them?
Just throwing out random opinions out there, feel free to ignore my little to none existence.
@Jintor: +1 that comment. Kyonspeak is vital and weird tidbits like that shouldn't be neutered.
The interview on Baka-Tsuki mentioned asked the author specifically about phrases like that, so I figured phrases like that should stay it. They're pretty unique.
BookofMages: I like that way. Hmmm... that means he would start wearing the headphones after Kyon-ko comments on it?
Can you see it in the Sealed Reality? Hmmm... still a little awkward. I'm still fundamentally opposed to Haruki's concession to Kyon be simply "Your ponytail... looks good on you", though.
At a glance, Haruki seems like the type of guy who doesn't have a single worry in the world. He always idiotically charges straight forward, energetically blowing through each obstacle he comes across without any thought for the consequences, no matter how much trouble he causes for others. Unfortunately though, even this happy-go-lucky fellow has his woes. I say unfortunate because, given the circumstances, there could be few worse worries for him to have other than the thought that "The world is too mundane."
To him, “Non-mundane things" are any kind of supernatural phenomena, meaning he often thinks things like "I can't believe that I have yet to see even a glimpse of a ghost.”
I should also mention that the word "ghost" could be replaced with "alien", "time-traveller", or "esper." However, it is common knowledge that these things only appear in fiction novels. They simply don't exist in reality. Which means, as long as Haruki continues to live in this “mundane” world, he will continue to be bothered by this fact. The world is supposed to be like this; nothing out of the ordinary.
I have my own worries to. Recent events that I’ve been through have made my confidence in this fundamental fact diminish greatly.
Because I know these aliens, time-travelers, and espers do actually exist.
"Please listen to me; I need to tell you something very important."
"What?"
"Haven't you always wished for the existence of aliens or time-travelers or espers?"
"Of course I have. What’s your point?"
"In other words, the purpose of creating the SOS Brigade was to find these people. Right?"
"Not just to find them, but to be able to have fun together! Learn the secrets of the universe from an alien! Play hide and seek whilst hopping around in the past with a time traveller! Take as my bride a mysterious esper who can instantly tell my every desire! Just finding them isn't good enough! I want to participate in the act, not just be part of the audience."
"I would really much prefer to be the one who got to watch from the sidelines... *sigh*, whatever. But have you ever considered the possibility that these aliens, time-travelers, or espers might be surprisingly close to us?"
"Ah? What do you mean? Don't tell me you’re talking about Yuuki, Mitsuuru-kun, or Koizumi-chan? If it's them, then that's not really a 'surprise'."
"Umm... that’s exactly what I meant. It’s been them all along."
"Are you an idiot? It can't be that easy."
"I guess that is true. This would be too simple by normal fictional story standards."
"So tell me, who's the alien?"
"You would be very glad to hear this. Nagato Yuuki is the alien. Hmm, how should I put it? He’s an android servant of the Integrated something entity... or Data something entity... something like that. Basically created by aliens and given a body."
"Oh? Then what about Mitsuuru-kun?"
"Asahina-san is easy to explain: he's your time-traveller. Well, he’s a visitor from the future. There's no problem calling him a time-traveller right?"
"Oh? Then how many years into the future is he from?"
"I don't know this, he wouldn’t tell me that. Something about it being “Classified information”."
"I see."
"Really?"
"That means Koizumi-chan is an esper? Is that what you were planning on telling me next?"
"That is correct."
"Ahh."
Haruki’s eyebrows twitched violently whilst he spoke. He slowly breathed in some air and bellowed:
"DON'T SCREW WITH ME!"
Just like that, Haruki completely discarded the truth that took me so much effort to get out. Oh well, this was what I had expected. Even after the three of them each used their own way to show me that they were indeed an alien, a time-traveller, and an esper, I still had doubts in my mind. To make Haruki believe this, especially considering that he hasn't seen what I’ve seen, was almost impossible.
But what else could I say? I had told him the absolute truth. Even though I may not seem the most forthright of girls, even I will admit the truth when I know I can’t gain anything from lying.
However, it would also be a lie to say that Haruki was at fault. If even a quite trustable girl came up to me and said "These people you know are actually supernatural beings..." I believe I would also lose my temper and start shouting at her. If she said something like that to me with a straight face, I would probably think that she had been infected by a virus and become delusional, or that her brain had been addled by poisonous waves, or even that she had quite a bad case of PMS and was in the mood for playing some vicious tricks on me. I'd probably even feel sorry for that poor girl. I don't think I would continue talking to her though in any case.
Of course, at this moment, I’m “that girl", aren’t I?
"Kyon, get your ears over here and listen carefully."
Haruki stared at me, his eyes burning passionately.
"It doesn't matter whether it's an alien, a time-traveller, or a esper. They're not going to just casually appear in front of us just like that! Do you know how precious they are? If we find them, we have to put them in a choke lock, tie them up, and hang them by their legs to make sure that they couldn't escape! What are the odds that the people I randomly grabbed off the streets to join our club would be that rare and precious? Next to zero I can tell you!"
Wow, he actually makes some sense. But other than this completely average girl here, the other three really are blessed with supernatural characteristics. I'm definitely the only normal human being. Wait a minute… Did he say that the people he chose to be in his club were just grabbed randomly?
Sigh, why does this idiotic boy only have common sense when it comes to uncommon topics? If he would just believe me, this would all be much simpler. At least this bogus SOS Brigade could disband, since it was formed for the sole purpose of finding aliens et al for Haruki. He may even find that bride he was looking for, though I would personally think twice before choosing Koizumi for that role. Once he finds those things, there won't be any point in keeping this troublesome club around. He could play with those unnatural beings all he likes whilst I sit in the audience, adding a few giggles here and there as I appreciate the insanity of it all from an outsiders point of view.
I hope this happens soon, because right now I feel like a circus animal being forced to dance to her master’s whip.
However, if Haruki really did have any sense of what was happening around him, I can’t be sure what the world would be like.
Ah yes. I should let you know that, from the beginning, only two people were participating in this dialogue. It happened during the second "SOS Brigade wandering around in the city (temporary name)" club event, when I talked with Haruki inside the restaurant by the station. I didn't have any doubts that Haruki would show his chivalrous side and pay for the meal. Well, he’s really only doing it because the penalty for being last to arrive forces him to, but a girl can dream about the impossible can’t she? I'd explained all about the situation to him very naturally in-between sips of my coffee. But he didn't take me seriously at all but I'm fine with that. Anybody who would instantly believe in a story like that needs his head examined.
As for me, I didn't bother to tell him the specifics, since details in things like this would only cause more suspicion. The long series of unclear explanations given to me by Nagato would probably make as much sense to Haruki as it did to me. Not only that, but the contreversial story of the girl dragged to the apartment where Nagato lives alone to hear these explanations would probably create a huge amount of fuss out of this guy.
"I don't ever want to hear lame jokes like this again."
Haruki drained all the yellow-greenish vegetable juice from his glass, and said:
"Let's go! There would be no point in separating into two groups today, so let's just wander around together! Oh yeah, I forgot to bring my wallet today. Here's the bill."
While I was still staring at the eight hundred and thirty yen bill, thinking about how to protest this atrocity, Haruki grabbed my coffee and finished it. That left me with the impression that once again he wasn't going to accept any protests. He then marched out of the restaurant and stood in front of the automatic door with his arms crossed, tapping his foot with completely unhidden impatience.
Half a year has already passed since then. Now that I look back on it, I seem to have experienced a lot more strange phenomena over the course of these past six months. SOS Brigade's official name is still "The Save the world by Overloading it with fun Suzumiya Haruki's Brigade", a name which gives me the creeps. I have no idea to where in the world this club has brought fun and excitement, other than the major Continent which is Haruki’s head. Also, the club's reason for existence is still a mystery. The original goal was about playing with aliens, molesting time travellers, and battling alongside espers, or something like that. However from Haruki's perspective, this goal still hasn't been reached.
This is all because Haruki believes he has yet to meet any aliens, time travellers or espers. I can’t help that he’s come to this conclusion. I've already told him about the other three members' true identities, but he just doesn't believe me. So it’s not my responsibility anymore, right?
Even though the SOS Brigade has failed to reach its intended goal, thus losing its primary reason for existence, it still hasn't disbanded. Even now, this unrecognized organization still secretly exists in the Old Shack.
Of course, our five members, including myself, still choose to hang out in our clubroom every day. The student council, after several meetings and different levels of analysis, believes that the best course of action is to simply ignore us. They didn't approve our club initiation documents, but they didn't say anything regarding our forced takeover of the Literature Club either. Maybe it's because the club's only member, Nagato Yuuki, has made clear that he has no problem with us being here. However, I personally believe that the student council simply does not want the wrath of Haruki to fall upon them, so they've decided to turn a blind eye.
I don't think anyone in the world would intentionally step on something that says "Warning: explodes when stepped on" in red neon lights. I certainly don't have the courage to do that. If I had only known, I would not have talked to the sulky boy who wore that unfriendly expression every day.
A normal high school girl who unknowingly pressed a button that activated a time bomb, and is now being forced to run around with that bomb like a moron - that's me. And this time bomb labelled "Suzumiya Haruki" doesn't even have a counter on it. I have no idea when it's going to explode, how much damage it will cause, or what else is inside. Even more importantly, I don't even know if this bomb is real.
Maybe it's just a toy used to fool little girls.
I can't seem to find the disposal bin labelled "Hazardous Materials Only" no matter how hard I try. Which means this dangerous entity that I've activated is essentially covered with superglue, stuck to my hand harder than anything else could be.
Sigh... Where am I going to find a place to dump it?
Was there an "official" version of who should voice Kyonko? Because Minorin's Chiaki voice seems about perfect.
Isn't that a Dimensional Paradox rather than a Time Paradox. It is not "Back to the Future: Kyon-chan". This is "Sliders". The missing element from Haruhi's first rant....
::blink::
...We found the sliders!
(Or are the Anti-SOS dan the real sliders that Haruhi wanted to find? Or is it Kyon...the last unknown element in the story?)
Too early in morning...thinking weird thoughts.
It's not a paradox of any type. A paradox is when two true statements result in a false statement. No such thing is occurring, so no paradox.
I hate Mondays! They are always bad days, and I can't seem to get rid of them! Like, today I wasn't quick enough getting out of the room when we changed for gym, and Haruki had already dropped his drawers... I saw "something", but I don't want to think of that. It was a birdie that he was keeping warm in there. Yes, a birdie.
Beyond that, why did my period have to start today? On top of that, in the middle of Gym class? It likes coming at all the wrong times. Especially today. It's not due for another week! Well, at least that means I'm not pregnant. Then again, how could I be pregnant... Itsuko can't get me pregnant, can she?
Anyways, I heard that the Computer Club President has started to get some psychiatry. The poor thing must have PTSD after what Haruki did to her. Will she ever be the same?
Oh, and in the SOS Brigade today, Haruki had Minoru cosplay as Kam*na. He is quite the hotty with his shirt off. Ooh, it makes me excited just thinking about it! Maybe I can print out a couple of copies of the pictures she took of him today?

Dammit! That would be about 56+ pages after a week. T3h Horror!
