...So now what can I tell you about this story? It's mostly a series of oneshots so don't expect long chaps, but there is a longer story to it so there maybe some parts that are more fleshed out than others. My goal is to finished this by the end of the year so please just keep annoying me til I finish it. It's also part of my plan to write 6 fics showing how Haruhi could end up with any of the Host Club members.
This is just the prologue, I promise it gets better!
Scientists use an experiment to search for cause and effect relationships in nature. In other words, they design an experiment so that changes to one item cause something else to vary in a predictable way.
These changing quantities are called variables. A variable is any factor, trait, or condition that can exist in differing amounts or types. An experiment usually has three kinds of variables: independent, dependent, and controlled.
The independent variable is the one that is changed by the scientist. As the scientist changes the independent variable, he or she observes what happens.
The scientist focuses his or her observations on the dependent variable to see how it responds to the change made to the independent variable. The new value of the dependent variable is caused by and depends on the value of the independent variable.
Experiments also have controlled variables. Controlled variables are quantities that a scientist wants to remain constant, and he must observe them as carefully as the dependent variables.
In a good experiment, the scientist must be able to measure the values for each variable. Weight or mass is an example of a variable that is very easy to measure. However, imagine trying to do an experiment where one of the variables is love. There is no such thing as a "love-meter." You might have a belief that someone is in love, but you cannot really be sure, and you would probably have friends that don't agree with you. So, love is not measurable in a scientific sense; therefore, it would be a poor variable to use in an experiment.
Ohtori Kyoya had excelled in many subjects during the time he had studied at Ouran Academy. English, German, Calculus, Economics and art to name a few. But he especially excelled at science. He topped every science class and even topped national and international rankings.
But the thing was that Kyoya viewed the world too scientifically. To him people were the variables. Independent, dependant, control, all variables all people. Except he preferred it if he could control them all. Each time he performed an 'experiment', as some might call it, it was carefully premeditated and his hypothesis was always proven.
Manipulative, might be one word for it. Personally Kyoya preferred cunning. (It sounded more becoming.)
This was how his life had always been.
Until he met her.
Everything he knew up until then was futile against her.
She was something new. She was a challenge the likes of which he had never encountered before.
