Why do I need a title again?

...the mail has been sent...

Edit: Never mind. I sent a second e-mail asking about the singularity, kitsu. evil grin

Oh! Oops... sadsadsad

I actually forgot about that... Although, to be fair, I actually asked if said singularity is going to even matter as part of the plot, so if the answer's no, then there's nothing to worry about. *

In that case, what's the trope Durandall should use? (even if not en exact case, I'm talking about when someone given two questions ignores the answer to one).

Regardless of such, it can only mean one thing: more tropes to add to the page, kitsu! (Sorry if I'm attempting to derail a line of topic, I've had too much sugar, and I'm having trouble thinking straight, kitsu.)

Also, I also asked about Fujiwara's power(read: Super-Speed), and I asked whether it was something that all experienced time travelers can do. Any thoughts?

It isn't Shrug of God, that supposes he gave an answer ("I'don't know").

Shrug of God is when his answer when I asked about REDACTED after double-checking the story, so I supposed he probably didn't had an answer; and some time before when he slipped he didn't know how to REDACTED.

It would have been funnier if it were CLASSIFIED INFORMATION instead of REDACTED.

HEY! How come mine turned out different from yours? What markup are you using?

@Marq FJA: I think Filraen used [-REDACTED-] (REDACTED) and you used [[AC:REDACTED]] (REDACTED).

Interesting list, Specular. I was...

Wait, that name in the boys list...

Sasaki Taichi/Daichi?!?

...my WMG senses are tingling, kitsu...

Edit: Oops, I misread "Sakaki" as "Sasaki". My bad...

Still, I can't help but think that Durandall has seen these these listings already, thus leading up to the point of invoking the Did Do the Research and Shown Their Work tropes, kitsu. *

Wait a minute... He hasn't brought mention towards most of these characters, particularly Sakanaka's friends. Should I point that out to Durandall, or would that be unimportant?

Something I noticed from the names list:

So, Kyon is number 7. By the way, Haruhi's name is the 7th one on the girl's list (7/7 = Tanabata?). And assuming that it was Tanigawa (the author of the novels) who came up with all of this, then the list also tells us one more thing - the first letter of Kyon's surname. It's either an S, Z or T; since it is between Sakaki and Taniguchi. That narrowed it down to a few hundreds possibilities alright.

Tadamichi certainly fits into there, don't you think?

#3913: Jul 3rd 2011 at 9:40:46 PM

Why, yes it does, Jason. Yes it does.

Also, from the same place where you got that tidbit about Kyon's surname...

And finally - I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before or not - the students who went to the same middle school as Haruhi are Arakawa, Uematsu, Kakinouchi, Taniguchi, Matsushiro, Suzuki, Takato, Hinata and Yanagimoto.

Well, that, and the fact that it says that "Tanabata" can be used as a surname, surprisingly enough.

Was it ever stated in K:BDH that Yanagimoto didn't know about Haruhi before high school, because I'm pretty sure that no mention of that was there, thankfully. *

Odd as it may be, maybe it would be fun to try and make a Haruhi fanfic that involved everyone other than the main characters, if only to give some depth to these characters and their lives, ne?

There's discussion of Kyon's what Kyon's name is? I was under the impression that it was all but explicitly stated to be Tadamichi Kyousuke in Big Damn Hero.

#3915: Jul 3rd 2011 at 9:54:45 PM

I do believe that the discussion is more leaning towards the Kyon in the Haruhi canonverse, kitsu. wild mass guess And it may be possible that his surname is, in fact, Tanabata.wild mass guess

That works. The stuff with the Yakuza seems thoroughly researched also. Durandall isn't cutting any corners with Real Life or with Haruhi canon.

Then, does that mean that Durandall has seen the info that Specular had found about Haruhi and Kyon's classmates?

[up][up][up][up]: That's pretty much what I was getting at. And it'd be awesome if it did turn out to be the case in the canonverse; Durandall could then say I Knew It!.

Didn't someone once get as far as 'Ta-' in canon when they were trying to say Kyon's name?

If we can find the alleged proof, then it would count as Shown Their Work for Durandall towards his fic, wouldn't it?
