26th: The Artistry of Haruhi Suzumiya

[Voice]

Okay Luceti, tell me! Maids, specifically dressing cute girls up at them: Fetish, or Art Form?

[...Yep.

That message goes up solo, and the rest of this trails maybe ten minutes later as an afterthought]


Also! If you guys saw that mega-birthday party the other day [here] or have involvement in Hydra Social [here] you've gotten a taste of what the Brigade can do for you. We also do consultations, so be sure to call on on, particularly if you can answer my earlier question correctly. [Particularly because, well... Valentines. She actually has two different plans for how to deal with it, she really needs to confer with Winry about which she'd prefer to see happen. But that reminds her...]

Hey Mikuru, do you want to sleep over tonight?

[EDIT: and then later that night she remembers something else, so she adds in]

Oh... right. Are there any people who know how to sail a ship who aren't otherwise occupied, willing to be hired out, and willing to head out into the water this time of year?

[If this wasn't clear already this post originated in an argument between Winry and Haruhi, so she might jack into various threads]

[...

... Wow. Robert's not even certain if the translator is adequate enough for this.]


Is it... t-truly that difficult to... u-understand...? [He's asking more to himself, but... yeah, shifting tactics now. It's so strange; he isn't used to speaking to someone who doesn't understand his words, anymore. Even if he's aware that some people don't get it.

Still, he wants to be understood.]


... E-Either way.

We are... s-strangers, to each other. I... c-cannot recall asking to speak with you... s-so why has it happened...?
skaterbrain: (let's do this thing)

[personal profile] skaterbrain 2012-03-28 09:54 am (UTC)(link)
Bro, you still ain't hearin' me.

USE. SMALL. WORDS.

[There, hopefully that helps.]
semper_cogitans: (>_o)

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-03-28 10:04 am (UTC)(link)
[This is an impossible conversation.]

H-how much smaller can th-they even be?
skaterbrain: (kinda confident if i do say so myself)

[personal profile] skaterbrain 2012-03-28 10:09 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, see? I got that. Sup. What's yo' name? I'm Beat.
semper_cogitans: (:<)

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-03-28 11:29 am (UTC)(link)
... My n-name is... Professor Robert A-Alexander Hastings...

[... Is that too long a name for him?

And he's so... casual a speaker. Even moreso than Mikey was.]
skaterbrain: (just a little shy)

[personal profile] skaterbrain 2012-03-28 11:39 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, you a teach? That why you talk so funny, huh? Aight, coo'.

[Pot and kettle here. Although, there is one thing that Beat's noticed.]

But I gotta ask, why you talk so weird? Not the words, the whole, uh, there but ain't thing. You gotta somethin' ta' say, you say it.
semper_cogitans: (D:>)

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-03-28 01:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I am... n-not certain what you m-mean...

[... Does he mean... Robert's stutter? Why is it so... noticeable now? Robert's developing definite self-consciousness over it now, if he hadn't already.]

... My... v-vocal tic...?
skaterbrain: (dot dot dot)

[personal profile] skaterbrain 2012-03-28 01:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno. You come in an' out like you goin' close and far or somethin'.

[Stuttering doesn't bother him much. It's the pauses and the quiet. It makes him feel like he's missing out on something.]

You there?
semper_cogitans: (:<)

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-03-28 03:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I just... [This is so awkward. Once again, Robert considers the possibility of somehow trying to wire a keyboard to the journal.]

... th-this is... n-not a simple matter for me, and I... s-suppose it makes speaking more difficult than it would usually be...
skaterbrain: (just a little shy)

[personal profile] skaterbrain 2012-03-29 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Then why you a teach? Ain't they supposed to stand at the black board and yell all the time?

[At least that's his experience with teachers. Yelling. Lots of it. And getting hit with chalk because he's snoring in class. Or. Just not going. And then getting yelled at when he does go. School is dumb. 8( ]
semper_cogitans: (>_>)

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-04-03 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)
...

[... That is the most inaccurate depiction of a teacher he has ever heard.]

... Wh-what sort of teacher would... yell at zir pupils...?
skaterbrain: (dot dot dot)

[personal profile] skaterbrain 2012-04-10 12:59 pm (UTC)(link)
...[What is...zir? Beat is so confused talking to you, Robert.]

All of 'em? What rock you been sleeping behind?

[wrong phrases all over the place... orz]

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-04-15 02:47 pm (UTC)(link)
No Terran t-teacher would use such brute m-methodology to attempt to e-educate anybody... [How uncouth! What kind of school would even function that way?]
skaterbrain: (just a little shy)

[personal profile] skaterbrain 2012-04-17 12:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I ain't from Terran or whateva'. Ain't you hearda 'ten people's different colors'?

[He's got the saying wrong. orz It's actually "so many men, so many minds."]
semper_cogitans: (:|a)

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-04-24 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
... N-No, I... cannot s-say that I am... familiar...

[It's not a saying he would know either way.]

... Wh-what does it mean...?
skaterbrain: (just a little shy)

[personal profile] skaterbrain 2012-04-24 01:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno. Somethin' 'bout thinkin' and stuff.
semper_cogitans: (>_>)

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-05-01 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
... [Well, that's something that one of them isn't doing much of.]

I... I s-see... I wish I, er, understood... wh-why exactly it was relevant...
skaterbrain: (just a little shy)

[personal profile] skaterbrain 2012-05-03 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
'Cause people're gonna be different. Ain't bad or good, just different.
semper_cogitans: (:/)

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-05-06 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
... I... I suppose that is true...

... Though... s-some differences... would you say they are... i-inherently problematic...?

[He's thinking mostly of violence, to be fair.]
