[There's a bit of a static feed as the journal turns on, and Shiki doesn't say anything for a moment. She's busy reading over everything from the last few days, but she finally decides to talk to the village at large.]

So. Hypothetical question. ...how long is too long to wait? For people, for objects, for anything. Give me your thoughts on this.

Have you figured out your answer yet?

It's fall now, isn't it? I should get back to decorating. So another question...favorite thing about Halloween? Decoration-wise, holiday-wise, anything. This is pretty important.

[Important in the sense that when she's done addressing the journal, she's busy flitting about her shop. She's been spending the last few days rearranging all of the furniture and putting up new shelves and such with Haruhi's help. And now. There are fake maple leaves all over the walls. And outside. Along with some cut-out paper pumpkins strung along the walls. Villagers are free to find her outside on the porch of All Passions staplegunning things to the building and such.]

No, you're just too socially inept to see it any other way. I'd be happier if I got to go with him.

Is your happiness the only thing that matters, then?

No, but I didn't know you were such an expert on what made my partner happy and what didn't.

I met him once. [He didn't seem capable of happiness in general, actually.]

Once doesn't really cut it with Neku. He's pretty antisocial, but he was getting better.

You'd call it "better". I'd probably consider it "more annoying".

Because you know everything about being a social person.

You don't have to be one to know about them.

...yeah you do. What kind of logic is that?

It's not the kind of logic you'd understand, obviously.

No, it's not the kind of logic that's logical. Clearly.

If saying that makes you feel better, fine. Think what you want.

Fine, I will. Are you here for any other reason than to harass me? I already have enough to deal with.

You felt like loneliness.

...then I guess you felt it right.

.. Don't you have friends to be with?

I'm not going to bother them just because I'm sad. [Which is kind of a huge lie, seeing how she's practically clinging to Haruhi these days.]

If they'd consider it a bother, then they're terrible friends.

They might not consider it a bother, but I would. Doesn't that make sense?

It sounds like someone's raised you with a bit of common decency after all.

Are all of your compliments purposefully backwards?

Who said I was complimenting you?

I did. It sounded like one, so I'm making it one.

Then take it as you would. Shall we throw a party?

I'd seriously consider it. This is the kind of thing worth celebrating.
