[Voice+Action]

Jeez, everyone. I know I'm due to hit forty soon enough, but as pranks go, making everyone half my age is pretty excessive. [It's in a semi-serious tone, but she's actually being sarcastic here] This is going to make the birthday party I hope some of you are planning pretty awkward, isn't it?

[Short laugh. It's funny, okay]

I'll be heading by the Brigade HQ for anyone who's around. The village is smaller too, gosh. See you there!

[So Haruhi Suzumiya is significantly older now! She's in her later 30s and as noted here will remain as such until her birthday on the 31st. You're free to answer the voice today or you can run into her in Action in any of the following situations (or anything else you come up with) on any day between now and the 30th!:

A) Shopping for clothes and accessories. Sure she's probably the result of some Shift, but she's going to be comfortable for this time, okay. Gosh.
B) Hanging out in and around House 10 or the HQ. She'll be with Sekai, and very enamored to see the rooster once more. ♥ She also might be witnessed meditating in these places, cooking meals at home, or otherwise doing her best to enjoy herself
C) At Good Spirits or Cloud Nine. She'll be at different ones on different nights for different reasons. Either way, some light drinking, darts, watching people perform, all that good stuff.
D) Swimming or tanning on the beach. Sure she's older, but she might as well distract/enjoy herself during this time, right. You also might see her performing some higher end spell work like putting an air bubble around her head to dive under the water here.
E) Going to the Hot Springs to have a nice dip. Hot Springs are things people always ought to enjoy. :|
F) People watching around town. This might be done in the form walking around, jogging around, or just sitting on a bench or something. But she'll be around trying to get a feel for who's around and chatting up familiar people.
G) Practicing her magic. A lot of it is filial, but some of it is also garner from other worlds. She's mostly comparing what she "knows" she should be able to do, versus what she can actually do if she's some temporary person here. This will mostly be out at the forest's edge, but also in the barracks, up at the mountains, on the beach...

No matter when you see her if you ask about the future she's from she'll probably tell you tall tales about the future. If you have anything you'd specifically want or not want your character to hear, ring me for permissions here. Let's have fun with this, folks. Replies will be from cougarmom]
