[extraordinarily]

[ Today, boys and girls - ladies and gentlemen, there's a new student on campus. Of course, she's still wearing her usual North High uniform (and not the regular uniform) and is walking around like a wrestler trying to find someone to fight.

Of course, she's walking around aimlessly, not even bothering to get used to her surroundings. But if she notices someone, she'll immediately make a beeline towards you with a very enthusiastic look on her face, asking (well, unless you're Mikuru, which instead she'll attempt to sneak from behind to grope you as a way of greeting!): ]

What are you, a slider? Esper? Alien? Maybe even a time traveler?! [ Yes, Haruhi is way too excited about this.

Especially since anything supernatural-related piques her interest. ]

[espio]

Chameleon. We change colours.

[extraordinarily]

But back at home they only change color due to the environment!

[espio]

[Annoyed sigh, and rotates through the rainbow, before turning invisible, and then going back to his normal pinky-purple self.]

In my reality, we can do it at will. And we can be born any colour.

...and [because this has only just occurred to him] colour is the first detail you pick on? Not the whole three-foot-seven and talking thing?

[extraordinarily]

Nope. [ She just smiles and nods, not really caring. ] It's still interesting, though.

[espio]

Riiight.

To answer the rest, I'm also a time traveller, and to you I'm an alien. Don't know what sliders or espers are.

[extraordinarily]

A slider is a person who travels to different dimensions! Oh, and an esper reads minds, uses telekinesis, that sort of thing.

[espio]

Uh-huh... well, in that case, I suppose I'm a slider, too.

[extraordinarily]

... Huh. Is that sort of thing common here?

[espio]

Well, technically everyone's a slider, since they ended up in another reality. But I did the sliding thing with a sentient machine.

[extraordinarily]

A sentient machine? Really?!

[espio]

Sure. The Omni-Viewer can travel through time, space and dimensions. I've taken a few trips into alternate histories and to Mobius. It's not such a big deal you need to march up to people and demand to know, though.

[extraordinarily]

But it's totally a big deal! There's no such thing back at home.

[espio]

So your world's kind of backwards, then.

[Actually, he totally gets that the Omni-Viewer is pretty unique even in his world. He's just easily annoyed. =| ]
