Hundred Fourth Explosion

[god_is_a_dude]

[Action]

[Well, Luceti. We have come to the twenty first and as such on this last day of AUs, someone who had been avoiding them for the whole time is now taken by then... albeit they don't know it, as per everyone else. That is to say...

Haruhi Suzumiya is all up in your business

[Sup, Haruhi. Have a familiar looking pain-in-the-ass walking by, dressed up in regal finery and carrying a gun. This definitely is not the Adell you're used to because of this goddamn experiment.

As he's walking by outside, he may briefly make eye contact, and give a nod to her. ...She does look vaguely familiar.]

[god_is_a_dude]

[...What the hell what is a shounentard doing with a gun?]

Hey, Adell!

[vulcanblazer]

[Maybe because he's no longer a shounentard and instead a tsundere noble foil to the shounentard lead. Either way, he turns and faces the girl when his name is called. Her tone is way different than anyone he's heard before, but the inflection, attitude and confidence are all very familiar.]

Do I kn-

[And then he catches sight of the yellow ribbon in her hair, the eye color... the air at which she carries herself. It hits him immediately who she is.]

Uh... [He shakes his head.] ...The experiment is playing with my mind. Haruki Suzumiya, head of the SOS Brigade, right?

[...Yeah. He knows something's wrong here. He doesn't know Japanese, so the subtleties in Japanese naming are lost on him. Sorry, Haruhi. He's bad at this game.]

[god_is_a_dude]

Haruhi. What, did you finally crack your skull on a rock or something? That other guy hasn't been here in almost a year! When would you have even had the chance to meet that idiot?

[/tsun tsun tsun]

[vulcanblazer]

[He doesn't sound very sincere, but he's not being particularly rude, either. Tsun tsun tsun.]

...Yes. How silly of me to make that mistake. Clearly you two are very, very different individuals.

As I said, the experiment is likely to blame. How fare you though this... trial, Haruhi?

[god_is_a_dude]

[...Something seems different about Adell. ...she doesn't care enough to look into it mentally though so she shrugs and sighs dramatically]

Winry's normal enough, Luka's back to normal and staying that way for once, Mitsuru's a moeblob, Sokka's a dick, and the Brigade is all over the place. I'd rate this at about 50% on the suck scale.

[vulcanblazer]

Sokka did seem... very different when I went to pick up my lost weapons from him earlier in the week. Maybe he seemed more insincere than normal.

[He wasn't around to see him macking on so many different women, including Charlotte. Good thing, too.]

...I am just thankful that Luka has retained her memories properly throughout this affair. Others have seen other significant changes. Or so I believe. I remember Ted as a male, but she is clearly a woman. There are several others I have seen too.

[Though by now he has been questioning whether or not his memories were changed... or people were changed. Especially after...]

[god_is_a_dude]

[...Haruhi taps her foot on the ground, annoyed. Something is totally bugging her about Adell now. He's so... he seems almost interesting now and for Adell to be interesting is just criminal. Hm. Hm. Hm.

But eventually she nods, still looking frustrated]

Understatement of the century for Sokka, idiot. [But she leaves it at that, focusing instead on the second point-]

But I'll second that Luka thing. Between that first-Luka fiasco and that Luki shit...

[vulcanblazer]

...At least the First Luka incident was simply an error. And Luki... well. He is a very trying individual.

[Yes. Luki is a jerk. A well meaning, protective, and prudent one, but it does not make him less difficult. Adell might respect him ultimately, but he is still speaking the truth as he sees it.

Adell blinks at Haruhi fidgeting, though. The frustration's nothing new, but the fidgeting...]

[god_is_a_dude]

Just say he was a dick. [Never going to use that personality again ever. She might use some of the other half-dozen or so... she's been curious about that serial killer one for some time actually...]

[vulcanblazer]

[...Well. Because he's more demon than before, he will drop more of his noble tone. Because he kind of agrees. So a bit of a wry smile might cross his lips briefly. And no, stay away from that personality, dammit.]

Yes, you are right. Luki was quite a bit of a dick.

1/2

[god_is_a_dude]

[Holy shit Adell actually said it what is this it feels like the world's gone topsy turvy on her]

[god_is_a_dude]

[...But then she laughs because who cares he actually said it! That means she wins!]

[vulcanblazer]

[Adell merely gives a short, noble's laugh when Haruhi laughs. Her laughter is contagious, it would seem.]

[god_is_a_dude]

[...Aaaaanyway-]

So, she move in with you yet?

[vulcanblazer]

[...Okay, that question's a bit forward, so Haruhi's going to notice something she's probably familiar with forming on his face. A tsun-blush. And he might turn slightly to try to hide it some. He's doing a bad job of it.]

...W-what? No! She still lives on the floor above me!
