Forty-Third Spool of Thread - [Voice/Action]

[There's the sudden sound of a bunch of boxes falling to the ground, contents spilling everywhere as the journal's camera points up to the ceiling. It shifts suddenly to focus on a particular pink-haired girl who was unceremoniously dumped into the back room of her shop on top of said boxes.]

Ugh...thanks for the warning, jerks. [She begins to untangle herself from the boxes of ribbons and fabrics, moving the journal closer to speak. For the most part, she seems pretty unharmed.]

Hey...so what day is it anyway? Here's hoping I wasn't gone too long, totally bad for business. [There's a slight beat, suddenly remembering something. You know, her housemate that was alone for like a week.] Haruhi, report. [She works her way out from under the pile of materials and the door to the back room swings open, allowing her to enter the main part of the shop.]

Neku...you better have made it back. That was pretty low of them, keeping us sort of together and then sending you back first. Besides, I was right in the middle of designing a n--

[There's a long pause suddenly as she really takes a look at the shop. She's staring at a row of dresser dummies, counting them in her head.]

All right, which one of you broke into my shop when I was gone?!

[Here, have a proper hug...this way she can look over your wings again.] Me too. They seriously keep taking us at really inappropriate times, you know that?

[Hugs are good right now. And he doesn't think he needs to answer that, instead just hugging her back.]

Let's go home, okay? Unless you want to grab anything before we head back.

[He shakes his head and takes her hand into his.]

Home sounds good right now.

Okay. [She squeezes his hand gently and starts leading him to the house, keeping mind not to drag him like she usually would.]

So...Joshua took care of you?

Yeah. He got me something to eat and let me crash on the couch. I didn't think I should bug Haruhi to drag me back home.

That's...almost really generous of him. What'd he want in exchange?

I don't think he wanted anything.

Are you trying to say that he actually did something just to help?

It's hard to say with him.

Maybe I'm being too hard on him, I dunno.

...is he doing any better since when Mr. H left?

...I think so. But I don't really know, I haven't talked to him much since then.

It's still kind of a sore spot for all of us. I don't exactly blame you.

Yeah. [Going quiet. Maybe we should change the subject.]

...I'm going to con Haruhi into making dinner for us. Are you hungry at all?

Getting there.

[Yes, yes he is hungry.]

I'll see what she can do for us...I'm not going to make you do it, and I don't feel like burning stuff today.

If she won't then we'll figure something out.

She better.

Anyway...you gonna explain what happened to you down there? [She's back to fingering at his wings lightly again.]

...they kept me sedated most of the time because I kept fighting them. I don't know what they did to me.

Those bastards...I should go back down there and give them a piece of my mind.

[Squeezes her hand. Shiki you're silly.]

I think I have a better idea.

[She just wants to protect you okay :(]

Yeah? Like what?

Food and then just hang out at home. With me.

...okay yeah, your plan's much better.
