23rd sigh

[slave_of_suzumiya]

(... It's odd. Definitely odd. Here I am, performing the same menial tasks she always assigns me, yet... The anger, the frustration, the need to shout "Dammit Haruhi, why don't you get someone else to do your dirty work!?" isn't there. On the one hand, it's somewhat nice not feeling all the usual stress, maybe I've finally just resigned myself... On the other hand, I pretty much resigned myself a while back and it really didn't help much. ... Darn it, why am I over-thinking this? Well, back to work.)

[Today, you may find Kyon either:

A) Out and about town before Haruhi gives him some stupid task.
B) Out and about handling the usual stupid tasks Haruhi gives him.]

Ah, right. Figures that'd be her view on the topic. Anyway, while it can lead to that, it's not the kind of thing you leap right into? Generally, people can be in a relationship for years before even considering the question of children.

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

Well, I guess you've got a point. I don't really know where babies come from anyway, I'm still waiting for Tiffany to tell me.

[slave_of_suzumiya]

You never learnt where babies come from?

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

It's not really important, is it? I'm a Flame Haze and I keep the balance between worlds.

[slave_of_suzumiya]

I guess not?

(At the very least, I know I'd rather not explain it myself.)

Anyway, other than what Sasaki told you, do you have any concerns?

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

Not really! Should I have some?

[slave_of_suzumiya]

None that I can think of...

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

Okay!

[She goes back to helping Kyon move stuff around for Haruhi.]

[slave_of_suzumiya]

Hm? Okay?

(Is that an "Okay, That's one question solved. I'll continue thinking." or an "Okay! That's sealed the deal!")

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

What? Let's get this done so we can go get something to eat. I think it's my turn anyway.

[slave_of_suzumiya]

Right, sounds good to me.

[And so, they go ahead and finish taking whatever Haruhi's thing is to wherever it was she wanted it then...]

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

All right then. Let's get some food now. Where do you want to go today?

[slave_of_suzumiya]

Well, Mayfield isn't exactly renowned for it's amazing variety, so I suppose it's probably between either the Neutron Diner or the Malt Shop again?

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

How about the malt shop, I don't like the diner.

[Because she works there most likely.]

[slave_of_suzumiya]

The Malt Shop is good with me.

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

[She goes there, gets herself a chocolate malt, then asks Kyon a very blunt question. You can thank Souji for this later.]

So, Kyon, are you trying to take all my clothes off or something? Souji said if you try that I should stop you and then he'll come over and kill you or something.

[slave_of_suzumiya]

[Halfway through a sip of his own drink, Kyon briefly splutters, getting some milkshake all over the table. He begins to mop up with a napkin as he replies.]

I-I wasn't planning on it, no. I mean, it's one of those things that you can expect in a relationship eventually but definitely not any time soon... I mean, it'd have to be at a time when we'd both be cofortable going that far. ... And once Tiffany has actually explained sex to you.

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

Okay then!

[Problem seems to be solved for now Kyon. For now.]

[slave_of_suzumiya]

Right then, so...

(... Hm, what now? Should I kiss her, or would it be a mistake to do that at the current time? It's hard to tell... If someone could write a comprehensive foolproof guide to not messing up relationships, they'd make millions... Oh well, here goes...)

[He slightly leans in towards her briefly, before pulling back unsure, then finally decides to lean back in to give her a little kiss.]

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

[She almost does a spit take of her shake]

Hey! What are you doing, I was eating!

[slave_of_suzumiya]

(Urk! Bad timing.)

S-sorry...? I mean, well...

(... And this explains why I never had a girlfriend back home. Oh well, at least I'm not Taniguchi.)

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

You'd better be sorry, or I won't be paying for these.

[Glare.]

[slave_of_suzumiya]

Right.

(Is there a hole I can crawl into anywhere? I feel like I should probably hide there.)

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

[She finishes up quietly and pays for them both.]

You're pretty bold sometimes, you know?

[slave_of_suzumiya]

Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
