New year, new life. Isn't that what people say? I suppose in general we can say life is the same for us here, right? But that's how it usually goes, not everyone changes countries, kingdoms or whatever there is in your world, each year, do they? It's in the smaller details where things change and new ones come to us.

We're still starting, but does anyone have something new already? Or plan to get something new during this year? I myself have got a girlfriend, the beautiful Ushiromiya Ange, sorry guys but she's out of the market now!

[And he's laughing like an idiot. Really it's not hard to see he's very happy with that. Any more immature and he would be doing a dance going "girlfriend, girlfriend, Ange's now my girlfriend".]

So... Who wants to go to have dinner at the Seventh Heaven one of those days? Or have a sandwich based dinner, I can do those.

[There's a quick but decently done portrait of Minato in the page now. Under it appears a written message.]

Good-looking young man, single and without any compromise. Very intelligent and resourceful, knows the worth of listening to others and puts it in practice often. Likes to sleep, take pictures, listen to music and hang around the village. Has been around here for three years or so. Good friend of his friends. Looking for more friends, specially females. For more references you can ask about Arisato Minato to: Minako, Shiki, Haruhi and Keiichi.

Interested people can ring directly to Arisato Minato's journal.

I didn't know everyone he knew so it's hard to keep an actual track, but somehow I can tell he has lost several. Not to mention the times people have come and then left not long after like with Junpei.

And yes, maybe contentment is the word for it. Still it makes no sense, he can go with anything and it's not as if he avoids people as far as I know, so how come he's not getting more people? Maybe he has also fallen into habit because Minako is the outgoing one of the two?

Well, you could say as much for anyone who hadn't seen each other in a while.

['Not that I really have an argument to put up against that. It's true. I just don't like it. On the other hand, Haruhi Principle #1:']

Though you're right. What it really is doesn't matter as long as she thinks it's that way.

[He purposefully gives a somewhat disdainful shrug to the last part.]

Right. As far as I'm concerned, it wasn't the Brigade as soon as the rest of us weren't here.

Don't get too used to calling yourself cool though, I can't stand guys who do that all the time.

[ probably referring to Amakusa here, yup.. ]

.. I might be willing to make an exception on that for you though as long as you don't make it too ridiculous. Or start to say it in English on purpose.

Uh... yeah! That's it exactly! [To be honest, all this talk about FEELINGS feels a little weird to him but!]

It's one of the problems when dealing with her, for good or bad. But you don't need me to tell you that.

[There's a bit of a pause at the last comment... Could it really be that?]

Oh... I see how it is.

[No, that wasn't a smile in his tone, you're just imagining things.]

Should I say that I'm lame, then?

[Teasing, he knows what a middle point is.]

I'll leave the cool English lines to you, they sound hotter in your voice after all. < See you again. Have a nice dream. >

Uhm... No, I don't think I've talked with them, sorry.

[/tells plotting about kidnapping a little orphan.]

So you know Minako-chan as well? That's great.

So, what's your name? Mine's Keiichi.

Of course.

[....] But if it's about me, I think he should say something.

['Maebara has just leveled up to .6 Koizumis, and damn him for it. Starting to have an urge to punch him in the face.']

Really? Because your tone is leading me to suspect you've suddenly done quite the opposite.

I'll flick you on the forehead once you start doing that.

[ She knows it's just teasing, though. But that second part.. gjfdkjgd, Keiichi, why. ]

Does.. that really sound 'hot' or whatever? I just thought it sounds cool when you say something like that, fitting for a dramatic moment..

And mine's Brendan! Uh... and, just to get this outta the way, you ever heard of Pokémon?

...totally forgot about Junpei. When you put it that way...ugh.

He's settled. Or your theory works, too. Minako's got a bunch of friends...maybe he just doesn't want to impose. Have you asked him?

Yeah, he probably would. if it was important and all.

[What makes you think it's about you.]

I can't really forget that one...

[Hello, person who told Keiichi that his best friend was dead. He still gets upset when he thinks of that day, thank you.]

I did. Kind of... What are you referring to by "asking him"?

Hmm, I think I have a clear idea of how it is, though. It's nothing bad, after all, if that's how things are then it's probably for the better when thinking about it objectively.

[Because subjectively and looking at the small picture it depends on the point of view. But when looking at the big picture and from the point of view of their world... It's probably for the better indeed.]

I have no idea what you're trying to say, Maebara, but I can tell that whatever you're thinking is wildly unsubstantiated.

It's substantiated by your own words, [Someone must be playing with the journals because it gets static here for a second.], so unless you lied to me... Anyway, even if that's how things are I think you should be careful with Haruhi, more than normally I mean.

It sounds cool. But it sounds hot when you say it, but you know I'm biased so...

[His opinion shouldn't matter.]

I repeat. I don't know what you mean, and I don't know what being careful is supposed to signify, either. You sound exactly like Koizumi, he can't say anything straight either.

I can't say I've met him. Are you sure he can't say anything straight or is it that you don't want to think of it?

Can't say I have. What is it?

[ of course her boyfriend's opinion matters to her - even if it's overly embarassing. ]

I'm not sure if the last thing people hear before they're knocked out should be something that sounds hot. [ not that she'd do it to him, but.. ] That'd be sort of counterproductive.

Eh, I wouldn't mind it. Great way to go out. Specially if it's accompanied by a good view.

[ --- gjhhkjdfkghjdfd ]

They're not supposed to find it or fun or anything as they go out, you know.
