I found something interesting in one of the books tucked in the back of the library. For once, I think this is something that would be pretty interesting for all of us to do. So I don't mind Haruhi is making me announce it on the network this time.

It basically goes like this: I'll read a short story from this book, and you as the audience decides

I agree with you. Princess, Prince, King, and Bull.

[lunchpenalty]

[Well, wasn't expecting that at all.]

You agree with me completely? The odds of that are pretty slim.

[seguchimika]

I was debating between the Prince, and the Princess, for first.

The bull I would put last, because for all we know, the princess could have been wearing red, and therefore, the bull charged at her.

[lunchpenalty]

I see.

Well, as I said, the bull was just acting on instincts. Ignoring warning signs like that so blatantly... She didn't have to run away, but since she did, she could have at least watched where she was going.

What's your reasoning for nearly putting the Prince first?

[a_thousandyears]

... Prince, Princess, the King, and the Bull. But with the prince and princess really close.

[lunchpenalty]

I see.

What's your reasoning for the Prince and Princess being the most guilty?

[a_thousandyears]

They both relied on an outside source to solve their problem, one that was forced into a corner and couldn't really help them solve it at all. And the princess acted stupidly to try and escape, but the prince shouldn't have put her in that position to begin with.

[lunchpenalty]

Ah, I get where you're coming from.

I hadn't thought of it that way.

[interlols]

... Princess, King, Prince, Bull.

[lunchpenalty]

Your reasoning?

[interlols]

The princess shouldn't have been so damn stupid, and her old man should have respected her wishes. Prince and bull are a tie, because they were doin' what they thought was right.

[lunchpenalty]

You don't think the Prince was being a little too forceful? I know the whole "he was in love, he couldn't help it" thing may apply, but...

Guilt is a pretty useless emotion.

[audio]

[lunchpenalty]

I guess it can be. It can serve as a pretty good motivator to do things, though.

[shut_up_near]

If you're relying on guilt to motivate you to do something, don't bother.

I never said I was in particular. I just know it can work wonders, sometimes. Of course, it doesn't work the same for everyone.

[7th_warrant]

Had any interesting answers yet?

[lunchpenalty]

I guess. So far, no one's put the bull or the king first. You're not going to answer?

[7th_warrant]

I try not to deal in human matters.

[lunchpenalty]

It's not exactly just a "human matter."
