－１: 『Enter the Minus!』

[negative]

[action 1, around town, morning]

[ There's a new face in town -- a rather ordinary-looking young man of average height and build, with black hair, blue eyes, and a pleasant smile on his face. Hands stuffed into his pant pockets, he is walking down the sidewalk, seemingly minding his own business as he approaches a random pedestrian and-- ]

『Hiya!!』

[ --In an instant, he's all up in their grill, his smiling mug just inches away from theirs. ]

『Hello! Excuse me! You there! Yes, you! If you're not too busy, may I please have a moment of your time?』

[ And even after he finishes speaking, the young man continues to stand rather closely to the other person, totally invading their personal space.

And he is still smiling. ]

[action 2, late afternoon, 1649 albright]

[ After spending several hours trying to gather as much information as he could, and another hour or two trying to recall his address, Kumagawa once again finds himself at the front steps of his new "home" -- 1649 Albright Lane. Once inside, he removes his shoes, leaves them at the front door, steps into the living room and, after taking a deep breath, announces quite loudly: ]

『I'm hooooooome, my wonderful, caring, loving family!! I'm soooooo sorry for sneaking out while you were all asleep this morning, but I'm back now, and I'm determined to be the best family member I can possibly be!』

[keep_smiling]

[You've managed to find an ordinary-looking blonde haired, blue eyes Englishman with the same pleasant smile on his face. He doesn't seem to care about the invasion of his personal space bubble.

And he never stops smiling, either.]

Mm? What can I help you with?

[ Yukko doesn't say anything.

She was going to, but this boy kept talking over her and she couldn't get anything out

And then when he stopped talking? She couldn't speak at all.

Because she noticed that he was really, really, really close to her.

Yukko gapes. She starts to shake.

Cute boy. Standing uncomfortably close to her. Smiling... ]

... w...wuuuuuaaaaahhhhh?

Action 2, 1649 Albright

[nyanpire]

[Nyanpire hears the front door open and wakes up from his nap in a sudden bolt. Ah! Someone's home! Maybe Ed, or Charlie... and they'll give him snacks and pets! So he pads on out to the hall! And stops short.

And stares at the boy.

And tilts his head. And stares some more.]

Nyaaaaaaaa.... who are you?

action; morning

[extraordinarily]

[Just because Haruhi gets her face up in everyone else's grill doesn't mean that other people are allowed to. So, instead of actually replying at first, she'll pretty much scowl.

Face? Meet Haruhi's hand, trying to push you as far away from her as possible.]

What kind of idiot are you?!

[At least she didn't attempt to dropkick him.]

[heavenfang]

... Could you not stand so close to me?

Action 2, 1649

[shadowflashkick]

[He was in the kitchen, fixing up a small snack of sorts for ... the cat. However, he heard someone enter, and announce themselves. Heading into the living room, he gave a small tilt of his head.]

The best family member, hm? ... and just who might you be?

[hyon_soudaishou]

[ Wow kid, that's close!

Nurarihyon blinks. ]

Yeah sure.

[corrodes]

[The Handmaid stops when approached, watching impassively. She seems to assume her silence and lack of movement is consent enough.]

1, I GUESS....?!

[calmingmelody]

[Loosha actually looks kind of excited that some smily guy has run up to her. After all, what's personal space matter when you're like 50 times bigger than everyone?!]

Pweah!

[she nods, and nods again. She can't exactly talk to him, but she understood!]

[snacklist]

[As a giant suit of armour, Al wasn't used to many people deliberately going out of their way to approach him, and so he does a mini double take in surprise.]

Um... me?

[pnshandnslv]

[It was a normal day, just walking to work. Then there was a youth standing just inches away from him.]

Excuse me, I'm walking here.

[Just shoving past the other now. He had no time for this...]

[reconstructs]

[Suddenly interrupted in her strolling along, Nico doesn't appear the least bit surprised. If anything, she gives him a smile... it's not exactly a warm one though.]

Don't you think you're standing a little too close?
