Suzumiya Haruhi no Tsuisou - 12: The Full Cast is Gathered (Revisited)

I had to rerecord the audio for this, as a few of the spoken lines are different in addition to the unspoken inner monologue.




11:00 AM, among the crowds, I find Haruhi as planned. Based on last time, I should choose my words carefully before opening my mouth.
キョン Kyon: Y-yo, it’s me... John Smith.

ハルヒ Haruhi: ...!


キョン Kyon: Hey! The hell was that!?

ハルヒ Haruhi: That’s my line! Who the hell are you?
キョン Kyon: Wha...!?
ハルヒ Haruhi: What do you mean “It’s me”, who the hell is “me”? You’re acting overly familiar there.
... Yare yare. Of course she didn’t even listen to my full sentence. I barely managed to dodge this time, since I knew the punch was coming.

ハルヒ Haruhi: Come to think of it, you mentioned something odd there. I’m probably hearing things... but did you say John Smith?
キョン Kyon: ... Yeah, I did. Well, are you surprised?

ハルヒ Haruhi: ...
キョン Kyon: Believe it or not, I’m him. On that Tanabata night, I helped you draw some weird picture on school grounds.

ハルヒ Haruhi: ...!
??? Somebody: Ooooi, Kyooon!

谷口 Taniguchi: What are you doing way out... Ack, Suzumiya.

... And this is where Taniguchi makes his entrance, just as expected.

ハルヒ Haruhi: You friends with that guy?
キョン Kyon: ... Yeah.

谷口 Taniguchi: Oi Kyon, what’s with the hesitation in that answer? And Suzumiya, don’t just call me “that guy”.
ハルヒ Haruhi: Shut up, out of my way, get lost.
キョン Kyon: Taniguchi, I hate to say this, but could you just be quiet for a moment?

谷口 Taniguchi: Ack, what’s with you two treating me like some nuisance? Fine, fine, I’m outta here, hmph!

ハルヒ Haruhi: ... That’s how it is.
キョン Kyon: How what is?

ハルヒ Haruhi: That idiot Taniguchi told you, right? About Tanabata and the picture on the grounds!
キョン Kyon: No, that’s not it.
ハルヒ Haruhi: Shut up! First of all, how does “John” become “Kyon”!? That’s what that idiot called you, right!?
Aah geez, and it ends up like this. I need to think of how to smooth things over...

古泉 Koizumi: Suzumiya-san, I finally found you. I lost you for a mome... Ah, what’s going on?

ハルヒ Haruhi: ... Nothing. Let’s go.

キョン Kyon: O-oi! Wait up!

古泉 Koizumi: ... If you’ll excuse us.

As Haruhi and Koizumi disappeared over near the booths, I felt a certain degree of helplessness as I stared in that direction—

> Do nothing
- (Calling out to her is useless now. Could there be another way of stopping her...?)

And so, I’ve come to an understanding. In this world, just introducing myself as John Smith is going to lead to failure. Now then, I need to think of another approach...
