just voice testing for now!

[thenatural]

Are you sure this is a good idea? I don't see why you should be going to all this trouble, especially if you don't even plan on taking me anywhere.

I mean, I'm not complaining. I just think there are better things we could both be doing with our time.

You say things like that, but it is good to stretch out a bit and get some air! Things like this still help those higher up people feel like they have a good grasp on us!

Certainly a little time out of our busy lives is worth it to see if we can still be placed in places, right?

[sparklyrichbastard]

No way, is that—Haruhiiiii!

[HERE COMES DADDY]

[thenatural]

Maybe... But I can't say I'm all that excited to be "placed" anywhere to begin with. She has others who would be better suited for that.

[thenatural]

[Oh no why is this happening now why does she need to brace herself already]

Tamaki-senpai?!

[kingofshotas]

Hmmm! That's no good! Maybe you need to see the positives on being somewhere-- maybe there is a place that only you would settle in just nicely compared to others!

Or lets think of a place that would suit you instead? Quick! Think of an ideal place you'd rather be at!

[odangohime]

Better things?

Like shopping?

Eating parfaits or pies?

Sleeping in?

[sparklyrichbastard]

[It's good if she is, because he's swooping in for a hug]

Haruhiii! Haruhi, it's been so long! Are you okay? Did you have a hard time? Did you get arrested? They weren't rough on you in prison, were they? I missed you, did you miss me? I promise I'll loan you some bail money!

[thenatural]

Ideal? Uh...

I don't know. She's got others in two different places already, and I don't think I'd do any better or worse at either of those than anywhere else. Really, I don't think there's any place that's ideal compared to where I'm supposed to be.

[thenatural]

[Oh, no.] So long— Wait a minute, prison?! Since when was I ever in prison?!

[thenatural]

Uh... No, that's not really what I had in mind.

Though I guess all those things would be better than...whatever this is, right now.

[sparklyrichbastard]

Well, I just figured with all the rest of us going missing, it seemed pretty natural that the police would blame the commoner.

[kingofshotas]

Mm... maybe a place that suits your personality instead then? How would you describe yourself and your ability to adapt to strange, new places you have to find a way to live at for a while?

[thenatural]

Missing?

What are you talking about? You guys were all fine the last time I saw you. [Right?]

[sparklyrichbastard]

What? But that was weeks ago. Are you saying...

[sparklyrichbastard]

[SHE DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE I WAS GONE]

[thenatural]

[Her first thought is what kind of question is that, but then again, Ouran...]

I guess it's as good as it needs to be.

[honeysempai]

Haruhi-Chan!

I'm so happy to see you!

[thenatural]

[Sorry, Tamaki, but she's still as oblivious to your inner pain as ever.]

Weeks ago? It couldn't have been more than an hour or two since I last saw you guys.

Are you okay, senpai?

[twindividualism]

[A WILD KAORU APPEARS]

Haruhi!! Are you okay? Are you being harassed? Interrogated?

[thenatural]

Oh— Hey, Honey-senpai. I wasn't expecting to see you around here.

[thenatural]

Kaoru— [What, more of this?] No, I'm fine. Why would you think any of that would be happening to me?

[sparklyrichbastard]

[least convincing mumbling ever]

I'm fine it's no big deal I understand if you—

[sparklyrichbastard]

...An hour or two?

[twindividualism]

Well, because we've been missing so long.

[thenatural]

Something like that, yeah. Definitely not weeks, though.
