Fifty Fifth Summons: Finding her own amusement

[shallbeavenged]

 [It's spring...almost. But it's starting to get nice so Ai can be found.

A. Outside her house sitting on the staircases, surrounded by paper cranes. She's making another, while a cat is sneaking up on one to the left of her ready to jump on one of them.

B. Are you walking down the street? Do you feel like you're being watched? That would be the small girl sitting on the telephone pole watching you walk by.

C. In the park. Jumping in puddles. Doesn't seem to be paying attention to people walking by. Hope she didn't just splash you....]

I see... so, basically, you're bored?

[Haruhi nods. She knows the feeling.]

Do you do this back where you're from, too?

[shallbeavenged]

Sometimes. People don't tend to notice me though.

[extraordinarily]

So basically... you're like a ghost?

[Haruhi tilts her head to the side, contemplating the situation.]

[shallbeavenged]

Something like that.

[extraordinarily]

That's kind of interesting! No, not kind of... totally! Yep, you're totally interesting.

[Haruhi nods, affirming it.]

I'm Haruhi. You are...?

[shallbeavenged]

Ai.

[extraordinarily]

Ai, huh.

[She kind of wonders how it's written, now...]

That's a really nice name!

[shallbeavenged]

....thank you.

[The first time she's been told that.]

[extraordinarily]

Hmm... it's nothing!

[shallbeavenged]

Have you been here long?

[She actually somewhat knows the answer. Mostly because she's talked to her before one of the other times she was here.]

[extraordinarily]

I've been here for several months, if you consider that as 'long'.

[shallbeavenged]

No. Not really.
