two ❖ the fourth wall | action

[extraordinarily]

[And today, Balamb Gardeners – whether you’re here because the fourth wall broke or you’re here because you’ve always been here, there is going to be one Haruhi Suzumiya roaming around in a bunny outfit, hunting down people she knows or doesn’t know randomly!

And she’ll shout from the top of her lungs one word:]

… Hello!

Comments

[bloomnobly]

[You have one (1) Yuyuko.]

Hello, yourself, Miss!

[extraordinarily]

Hi! Are you new here?

[…Even though Haruhi hasn’t met everyone, she’s met plenty of people already.]

[bloomnobly]

[She floats over to Haruhi YES, FLOATS. STRAIGHT THROUGH THE SOLID OBJECTS IN HER WAY.]

I believe so! This doesn't look like Gensokyo at all, unless Yukari's done some remodeling. Do you know what this place is?

[extraordinarily]

[Haruhi opens her mouth for a second before clasping her hand in excitement, looking quite excited.]

I do, I do! This is Balamb Garden, in another world…! And you’re not an ordinary human, too. What are you? Alien? Time traveler? Esper? … Something else?

[bloomnobly]

Balamb Garden? I don't think I've ever heard of it... [She cocks her head to the side.]

Of course not. I'm a bourei.

[extraordinarily]

Bourei…?

[Haruhi also tilts her head, but to the other side.]

Do you have some sort of supernatural powers, then?

[bloomnobly]

A type of ghost, dear! [She splays her fan out in front of her.]

Why wouldn't I? Unless that's not a common thing, here.

[bunnypassingby]

[WHY ARE YOU WILLINGLY WEARING THAT

[Mikuru, sitting on a bench with a textbook on her lap, just stares at Haruhi and her bunny suit, utterly appalled and slightly disturbed that she has an outfit so similar to her own. Her own which she regained in an event and then gave away because she certainly didn't want it.]

[extraordinarily]

It is, but…

[Her eyes light up, excited.]

You have to tell me all about it! Your powers!

[bloomnobly]

It's not something I'm very keen on discussing, Miss.

[extraordinarily]

[BECAUSE IT ATTRACTS ATTENTION

And Haruhi notices Mikuru and smiles mischievously at her, grinning from ear to ear. That’s never a good sign.]

Yoooo, Mikuru-chan~!

[adventuredog]

[ This is not a person.

This is a dog.

And it's the best dog ever. ]

Hey, how's it shakin'?

[extraordinarily]

Why not?

[Haruhi frowns.]

All I want is to play with the supernatural!

[bloomnobly]

Play? [Yuyuko snaps her fingers. What looks like a small glowing ball of light appears and heads straight for Haruhi. It will follow the movements of Haruhi's hands.]

[extraordinarily]

[It better be the best dog ever.

Or else Haruhi won’t forgive him.]

I was looking for the mysterious! Or pretty much anything that’s… different. You're a talking dog, so you seem special!

[extraordinarily]

Yeah.

[Haruhi nods as she plays with the balls of light with her hands...]

[bloomnobly]

Well, there you go. It should follow you as long as I exist in this realm, so have at it. [Giggle-giggle.]

[adventuredog]

[ Forgive schmorgive, he's a magic talking dog what more do you want ]

Me? Mysterious? Naw, I'm pretty much an open book.

... But not a lame book like a... thesaurus or something.

[extraordinarily]

Great! I'll make sure to record notes about it.

[...meaning to see how long these visitors come and go.]

[extraordinarily]

Really?

[She'll ask this curiously.]

Can you do anything other than just talk...?

[adventuredog]

Oh, you kiddin'? I can do all sorts of stuff. Like... oh, oh, check this out!

[ He takes a step back, as if to make room ]

Here I go!

[ Is this what you expected ]

[extraordinarily]

[Haruhi would normally be deadpan at this kind of thing, but instead… she’s the opposite.]

That’s amazing! A talking dog who knows how to dance!

[adventuredog]

Girl, I don't just know how to dance - I am dance incarnate.

[ He stops though, because clearly if he doesn't he'll spontaneously create a crazy party right here on the spot - and now probably isn't the time for that, so. ]

Oh hey, have you seen a dude named Finn around? He's all humanlike, white hat, green backpack, pretty sick beatboxer?

[extraordinarily]

There’s a bunch of humans here, but… I haven’t seen him.

[Haruhi knows people by name, so. Yeah.]

He might be around here, though!

[mother_gawful]

[Hey Haruhi, have you met your CBT instructor in person yet? She'll just be over here. Not approving.]

Child, whatever are you doing?
