[Another child!effect?

...and she's so polite.]

Hello, Haruhi. I'm Katara. I see you've heard about how weird this place gets already.

That's good! It's always a little hard to get used to when you first hear about it, but it sounds like you're adapting well.

[Which means you've hopefully found a place to stay and all, yes?]

[Not that polite, huh.]

Hey, even if you were twelve years old, I'd still be glad you found a place to stay. Luceti isn't a good place for anyone to be alone.

Really? Then what would make them more interesting?

The wings aren't 'interesting' enough for you?

[She's amused.]
