38th sigh

[Kyon has been kicked up into a furore over this latest event, however having hit a wall almost immediately, you may find him sitting on a park bench musing to himself...]

... Man, I really am hopeless on my own, huh? I decide that I have to go and investigate this mess, yet I haven't the slightest clue where to start. It'd sure be useful if I had Haruhi... Or even Nagato or Koizumi... They'd probably find us at least a starting point, even if it turns out to be a dead end.

Oh well, maybe if I sit here a bit longer, something will come to me...

Definitely a plausible explanation.

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-26 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
...come on, let's go check out the tree. Maybe if we can find a power source and unplug it, things will go back to normal.
slave_of_suzumiya: (It's not all bad)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-26 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, alright.

[He doesn't have much faith that this will do anything, but it's better than doing nothing, right?]

(And after much searching and many hours, they haven't found anything. Tara glares at the tree with as much hatred as she can muster; she's been prickled all over by it.)

Stupid tree.
slave_of_suzumiya: (You're still not listening...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-26 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
... Well, at least it's one possibility eliminated?

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-26 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, you're right.

Maybe we could try pulling the lights off instead? Or, we could cut the wires. If we cut it at one point, it should stop the electricity flowing through the tree.

((OOC: Do you know whether sabotage to the tree will result in droning?))
slave_of_suzumiya: (That's a tough one...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-26 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose we could do that...

(OOC: From what I can tell, it doesn't do anything? Except the damage is undone the next day.)

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-26 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
((OOC: Sweet, thanks!))

I'll go and get some pliers, I think I saw some in my house.

(She runs back to her home, grabs said pliers, and comes back. She hands one pair to Kyon.)

You ready? We might get in trouble for this. I don't care, but are you OK with it?
slave_of_suzumiya: (You're still not listening...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-26 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I can't let you just go it alone, can I?

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-26 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
We don't have to do this, if you don't want to.
slave_of_suzumiya: (Why are you asking me?)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-26 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
Well, if nothing else, at least the town'll know they've pissed us off...

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-26 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
Right. Let's go then.

(Trying to be brave here, she's got the pliers around a wire, just need to press it down, any time now, ANY TIME...)
slave_of_suzumiya: (... You can't be serious)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-26 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
[He'll go ahead and do it first.]

... Okay, no downside yet.

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-26 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
...Uh huh.

(She cuts the next one. And the next one. And the next one And true to Mayfield hijinks, the lights continue to shine, eventhough their wires are cut.

After an hour, she scowls up at the tree again.)

I hate this tree. A lot.
slave_of_suzumiya: (What are you planning this time?)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-26 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
... Oh well, at least there doesn't seem to be any repercussions?

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-26 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
I guess.

But the important thing is that the tree doesn't have anything to do with people disappearing.

Doesn't make me want to burn it down less though.

So, the Christmas tree's clean. Maybe, just maybe...since the town's got no power...we can try the Mayor's office?
slave_of_suzumiya: (It's not worth the effort...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-26 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
The Mayor's office, huh? ... Wouldn't we be liable for a run in with the Mayor if we did that though?

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-26 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
Not if we were sneaky about it...I could try and distract him, and you could go in and see what we can find!
slave_of_suzumiya: (That's a tough one...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-26 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
I guess... Although I seem to have the impression that the Mayor doesn't really have as much influence in things as his title would imply.

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-26 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
Huh? Really? But isn't he the Mayor of the town? He's gotta know about some things that work here.
slave_of_suzumiya: (You're still not listening...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-26 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
It's likely he knows what's going on, but I doubt he had any personal involvement in it. The only information at his office is probably whatever is in his head, and I doubt he'll tell us just because we ask nicely.

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-30 05:39 pm (UTC)(link)
...drat.

(She kicks a stone on the ground.)

Sorry Kyon, I think I'm out of ideas. We...we could try the dairy if you want, but I hear bad things happen to people who even go near the place.)
slave_of_suzumiya: (Like I didn't see that coming.)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2011-12-30 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
No worries, it's fine.

[identity profile] forgotten-titan.livejournal.com 2011-12-31 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
...

(She glances back at the tree, silent. There's really nothing else she can think off to say.)
