My attempt at Nagato's POV. This may be considered filler, so I won't object to you skipping this. I assure you, however, that Miss Kimidori will be back at some point.
Yuki's POV
After we had parted ways, I made my way to the apartment building that I lived in. What I said to Haruhi Suzumiya was the truth. A lowly interface, like myself, would not hold any sway over the Data Integrated Thought Entity. Only Kyon and Haruhi Suzumiya hold any power over the Entity and that is only as a result of Kyon threatening the Entity's existence if it were to remove me from this space. I soon reached the apartment building and proceeded toward the lobby. When I reached the lobby, I saw someone there that I did not expect to see.
"Greetings, Miss Nagato. Shall we talk in the apartment?" This person asked me.
It was Emiri Kimidori, a humanoid interface like myself. She must have been sent by the Entity to question me about Haruhi Suzumiya's knowledge of her data-manipulating abilities. I nodded in response to her question and we both walked into the elevator. We silently rode the elevator to the 7th floor, where my apartment was. The elevator doors soon opened and we walked out to my apartment. I opened the door and we went in. We sat down. Out of courtesy, I offered her tea. She thanked me and we both drank the tea.
"Miss Nagato, I am sure you are aware of the reason that I am here." Emiri Kimidori asked me, initiating the conversation.
I nodded.
"The Entity no doubt has questions for me regarding Haruhi Suzumiya. Am I correct?" I asked.
"Indeed, Miss Nagato. I shall make this short. The Entity wishes to know what you plan on doing, given these new circumstances." She said.
The Entity could have asked me itself, but it must have decided that a messenger would be preferable. After living among humans for 3 years, I certainly would. I promptly gave my response.
"If it were my decision, I would support Haruhi and attempt to protect her from the superior esper's advances. However, as the Entity still does not wish to interfere in the Organization's affairs, it will no doubt want me to simply observe, as I have done before now." I finished.
The Entity's question might have seemed strange, but given my actions the previous December, it made sense for the Entity to have asked that question. It must still have some misgivings about my ability to complete my assigned task.
Emiri Kimidori nodded in response, meaning she understood. Thanking me for answering, she bowed to me and left the apartment. However, as she walked out, I did not fail to notice her facial expression. It seemed… uncertain. It did not surprise me. I was aware that, unlike me, Emiri Kimidori was given some capacity to express human emotions. Given the current circumstances, it is likely that she is worried about how the Entity will respond to my answer. To be honest, I am too. I should not be worried, however. I have not acted on my desires, as of yet, so I doubt that the Entity will extract me from this world. I will surely see what occurs tomorrow morning whether or not I am still here.
