Author's Note: Oh shit, I'm back. And you know how I said my next story wasn't going to be based on Haruhi? I lied. I'm a loathsome bastard who knows not the value of truth.

Disclaimer: I don't own Haruhi. If I did, you certainly wouldn't like it as much as you do.

Yuki Nagato slowly opened her eyes. Having uploaded her daily report to the Data Integration Thought Entity, she made a move to pick up the book on the kotatsu before her. Her fingers touched the spine of the book and stopped.

She remained still for a few moments before closing her eyes again.

"Hey, Nagato..."

Kyon is initiating communication with me. I cannot make out the expression on his face. I directed my attention at him.

"..."

"..."

"...Nothing."

Kyon's eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression tightened somewhat. I am still unable to classify his expression.

Once more, Yuki opened her eyes. She removed her hand from the book and placed it in her lap, eyes unfocused. She gave voice to her thoughts

"...Irrelevant?"

Author's Note: Well, well... looks like I'm at it again. I finally decided to devote my mental faculties while I'm doing the dishes at work to something other then nursing the tight little ball of madness in murder buried deep within my soul.

Once again, I plan on doing this story from Kyon's perspective- I've just wanted to try out something like this for a while, so I decided to put it in the prologue. I hope it was at the very least, interesting. :)

Also, REVIEW. Do it, or I will find you and snake red hot wire coat hangers into ever pore on your skin. Or just not update as quickly, whatever. At least keep in mind that if I get some reviews, I'm more likely to keep interest in this story.

Just so nobody asks, this is not a redo of the sequel to Jealousy. This is a new story entirely.
