[action a - noon]
[After doing his normal cleaning and cooking at House 40 in the morning, Hayate finds out about the results for the Secret Santa drawing, and well... ah yes. Luke. He knows Luke. Vaguely. They met once. Maybe twice. It certainly wasn't enough times for Hayate to have gotten to know him and learn about his interests, though, so... an investigation is in order! After all, he wants to be sure that he has at least some idea of what Luke may like for the holidays.

So he decides to perform this investigation in the most eloquent way possible. You know, by basically following the kid around for an hour or two. Maybe three. Whether it be hiding behind trees, within bushes, around the corners of buildings, under a box... he's just. following him around the village. yep. He's also wearing a black fedora and large glasses with a nose and mustache attached, because clearly that is the best disguise.

Super stealthy. Right here.

((ooc; also since some have asked, yes this prompt is open to all!))]

[action b- afternoon]
[Once Hayate's done creeping on Luke for the day, he goes about his normal shopping! Which means mostly the grocery store, but he does need to try finding some gifts for people, so he stops by the item and clothing shops as well. While in one of the stores, though, he does happen to find a violin, which he ends up staring down for a few long moments before picking it up and heading back home to CH7.

Feel free to bump into him in the stores, or even on the way home! Maybe not literally, though. I mean. Just look at all those groceries, that violin, and that box used for ultimate stealth purposes...]

[voice... c???- also afternoon...]
[Aaaaand then while home, he'll throw up a voice entry...!]

Ahh... It's strange how quickly time flies, isn't it? To think that I came here a little over nine months ago, and have even turned seventeen while here... it's really strange to think about! Perhaps this is how the Pevensies felt after spending so much time in Narnia... And if that's the case, I wonder if whenever I return home, it'll be as if only a few seconds have passed since I left?! That's what happened to them, after all. But if that were to happen, does that mean I could grow old here, and then suddenly go back home as a young, beardless and wrinkleless boy again? [...] ...This is beginning to sound like Luceti could be advertised on TV as a new and unorthodox anti-aging product... [squint...]

...Anyway! It's December, so that means the new year is coming up, right? What do you all usually do during that time of year? Whether it be what you did back at home, or even in Luceti. I wasn't here last year or anything, so I'm a little curious on the latter as well, actually.

[action d- evening]
[You know that violin Hayate discovered in the plaza earlier today? Yeah, he's putting that to use...! So that night (not too late though!), he decides to sit outside of CH7, playing his new instrument for a bit. It's been a while since he last played one, however, so he's a liiiittle bit rusty! But the song he is playing still should sound pretty nice!

He'll be out there for some time, so come bother him yes.]

[dun dun duuuun...]

Well, yes! But sometimes there are those crazy people who make use of their fireworks too early and keep you from sleeping at night.

W.. what, are there really people who do that sort of thing..?

[ Welcome to the world of the world's most naive moeblobs, Hayate. Enjoy your stay. ]

Eh? Yes, of course! You've never been kept up by neighbors doing that before, Kaname-san?

No, not at all! [ she shakes her head. ] Our neighbors were usually pretty friendly, so I can't imagine them doing something like that.. Well, maybe they might have done it, but not without asking, I'm sure!

I see... In that case, you must have been very fortunate. My neighbors used to do it all the time, and I know the same happened with classmates of mine as well, ahah... I'm glad that your neighbors were considerate like that, though.

[his classmates probably did it themselves too idk]

Did it always bother you then, Hayate-san..? I'm sorry..

[ yes, even apologizing for things other people do.. can't contain the moe, okay. ]

[madoka please]

..Eh? Ah... N-not really! I guess I was sort of used to it, so it's fine, Kaname-san! There's no need to apologize.

[ being meduka is suffering!! ]

But being used to it still isn't a good thing, right..? It'd be better if people would never have to get used to bad things.

Mm, I suppose so... But I don't think it's all that bad! I mean, the people shooting the fireworks are enjoying themselves, so...

That's true! But it's pretty difficult to make sure everyone is happy, right? They're enjoying themselves, but because of that other people aren't enjoying themselves because of all the noise..

[this is so dramatic and it's just over fireworks...]

Y-yes, that's true... But ah... At least that isn't much of an issue here in Luceti, right?! So you don't have to worry.

[ welcome to the world of dramatic series.. even when they talk about nothing at all. ]

H-.. hmm, I know. That's why I hope you'll be able to enjoy the fireworks too this year, Hayate-san. If they have them again, that is.

Well, I'm sure I will, Kaname-san! So there's no need to worry about that.

Are there lots of fireworks, then?

Last year there was quite a lot! I can't remember if it was because of this place itself or because someone here made them though, so maybe that person left already.

Ah, I hadn't thought about that... Were you not here for the previous New Year, Kaname-san?

I was! But.. I guess I just didn't pay enough attention. [ a nervous giggle. ] I didn't know as many people back then as I do now, I guess..

I see... Well, if you don't mind me asking, Kaname-san, when did you come to Luceti, anyway?

I arrived here in May. .. That was last year's May though, so.. it's been over one and a half years by now, I guess.

Ohh, I see... That's quite a long time. I was just a little curious though, so...

Ehehe, I don't really mind it anymore though. It's strange, but this place is almost starting to feel a lot like home, even though I miss my family..

Mm, I think I could understand that. Especially after being here for so long.

It's just thanks to all the nice people here, hehe. They make it feel that way.

Yes, there certainly are many kind and welcoming people here in Luceti. It makes being here a little more comfortable, at least, ahah... Like you, for example, Kaname-san.

.. Eh? [ didn't see that one coming. ] You really think I'm such an example, Hayate-san..?

Yes, of course! You're one of the kindest people I've met here, so... I'm sure you make many -- if not all -- of the people you meet here feel welcomed.
