[House 43, check.

This guy is not Naoki, check. Also not Isamu, check.

Process of elimination has led Haruhi Suzumiya to believe that this fellow is most probably that Richard character. She was just out jogging (and not repeatedly going around this house to scope it out since her chat with Naoki, not at all!!) so when she sees this person she grimly nods to herself-

And then lightly throws one of the things in her pocket (as it is is, a stress ball) at his head]

ledbythewind March 7 2011, 07:25:02 UTC

[With his eyes closed the way they are, Richard doesn't even realize the ball is coming until it hits his head... which triggers an instinctive "attack" response, and there will be an Avenger Bite headed in her direction in exactly one second.]

[What.

No really what. He just casted something at her and- Well shit, the minute she senses something coming at her, she dodges that as quick as she can-]

godbent March 7 2011, 07:35:02 UTC

[But not quick enough for it to not shred up the front of her shirt a little and cut her belly a bit. She looks down at that and instantly yells]

ARE YOU INSANE?!

[Hello walking storm of angst, even if you feel Human Kaori can never ignore someone who is feeling this way, so much that it deterred her from an attempted trip to the grocery store, which she was slightly thankful for because... A blind girl trying to shop for ingredients on her own? Scary.

She'll just sit herself nearby somewhat reluctantly, trying to will his negative feelings into herself instead, or just offer some kind of company. Whatever he needs, really.]

[At last he opens his eyes and notices the girl sitting nearby. There's something familiar about her, but it takes him a moment to put a name with the face, especially as they'd only ever spoken via the journals before.]

... Miss Kaori. Are you lost?

seiriald March 7 2011, 08:03:03 UTC

[Jumping out of her skin now, this guy knew her? Give it a moment as she visibly tenses as her guard goes up, trying to not be too hostile and mistrusting so soon. His voice sounds familiar, but she can't quite place it yet...]

I don't think I am...

ledbythewind March 7 2011, 20:03:40 UTC

Then did you come here for a reason?

[He knows his house isn't exactly in a very well-traveled area of the village.]

[ Restless since the draft's closure, Alf has taken to going outdoors more frequently and trying different routes than the norm. The path he takes this afternoon leads him to the road by House 43, where he stops when he sees the quiet figure.

There's something vaguely familiar about that face . . . a face he'd seen on the journal a couple of times, but never in person. Until now. ]

Richard?

[ action ] ledbythewind March 7 2011, 23:39:42 UTC

[Alf isn't the only one who has to stop and think for a moment to place the face, but it's something Richard has had a great deal of practice with, so it doesn't take him long to find the name that goes along with it.]

... Sir Alf. Are you enjoying the weather?

[ action ] hakoiri March 8 2011, 00:11:32 UTC

Please, just Alf is fine.

[ He nods. ] The warmth is quite comforting. Are you?

[Guess who's the next door neighbor in house 44. Oh, yeah, that's Remilia, peering over at the guy under her parasol.

Since his eyes are closed, she doesn't hesitate to poke him one or more times.]

ledbythewind March 7 2011, 19:30:38 UTC

[At least this is after his little run-in with Haruhi, so he's going to force himself not to react violently. That doesn't mean he's pleased by being poked, however, so he'll open his eyes to look up at her with an expression that is decidedly unimpressed.]

May I help you?

redsynonymhere March 8 2011, 02:11:45 UTC

What are you doing?

ledbythewind March 10 2011, 18:47:49 UTC

I was attempting to contact the spirit Nala so that I might learn healing magic from her. She seems willing enough to teach me, but her method of communicating is somewhat... unusual.

[...Richard, what are you doing. Asbel is walking over to investigate now.]

ledbythewind March 7 2011, 19:29:23 UTC

[You're going to have to say something to get his attention, Asbel. He seems pretty focused on... whatever it is he's doing.]

raizanshou March 7 2011, 19:41:54 UTC

[Well, fine then. He stands right in front of Richard now.]

...Richard, what are you doing?

ledbythewind March 7 2011, 19:51:02 UTC

[That'a a familiar voice. His eyes open slowly at the sound of his name and he looks up at his friend.]

... Asbel.

[But the other might note that there's something... different about his tone.]
