[Voice]

Ladies and gentlemen, girls and boys, lend me your ears! It is time that I, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, announce one of the S.O.S. Brigade’s latest- and most grand, if I do say so myself- project! A project for all you wallflowers who are too shy to make friends! Let’s have a drumroll, please!

[And he does, indeed, get a drumroll. Rather, he produces one himself, with an actual little drum.]

It’s Project Hydra Social!

Unbeknownst to you all, I’ve been watching the village and gathering names for the past month or two. These lucky residents, who were selected and partnered completely at random, are goin’ to be penpals from now on! Don’t know what penpals are? Don’t worry, it’s easy! Ya just send each other a letter every so often. Doesn’t matter if you use the journals or send a real letter, as long as it reaches your partner! So be sure to check this list here and see if you're on it!

Again, Project Social Hydra is an initiative brought to you by the one and only S.O.S. Brigade! … And uh… It was Haruhi’s idea, I guess.

And boooring! Don't you know life is supposed to be an adventure?

[mythbuster]

I've had enough adventure for a lifetime. [For real.] Isn't it enough being abducted and stuck in a place like this?

[kingofwaste]

No way, kid. That's just the start of your adventure. It's like the Wizard of Oz, see? You're outta Kansas and now you've gotta gather some companions for your stay here.

[mythbuster]

[Hmmmmmm, yeah nah.]

Speaking of which, did you know there was a sequel to that movie? It hints that Dorothy's adventure in Oz was all a schizophrenic fantasy, or at least a traumatic episode of her imagination.

...

2/2

[kingofwaste]

But there's still no problem with makin' friends, fantasy or no fantasy.

[mythbuster]

Yes, whether or not one's friends are real or imaginary, what matters is that they're happy. In fact, one could befriend the characters of a book to a similar effect, wouldn't you agree?

[kingofwaste]

[Loki, you're talking to a cartoon character, here. This kind of logic isn't working.]

Yeah, sure! Why not? Might be interestin', talking to a book character. I'll bet they have great stories to tell.

[mythbuster]

[gdi you. He can't tell if this is just some very subtle sarcasm, though he's betting it somehow isn't.]

... Where I'm from, that isn't really possible. [Unless it's a nonfiction book.]

[kingofwaste]

It's possible here, right? So what's the problem?

[mythbuster]

... Is that right? I've never heard of that being the case.

[kingofwaste]

Hey, if there's cartoon characters here, there can be book characters. Why not?

[mythbuster]

[His point got hideously derailed somewhere in these past few exchanges... Oh well.]

It makes you wonder which of us are really the characters.

[kingofwaste]

Maybe we all are!

[It would explain why Oswald still hasn't gotten his heart back, despite associating himself with all these people. Fellow fictional characters don't count as fans.]

[mythbuster]

Ahahah... I'd like to think I wasn't born out of the figment of someone's imagination.
