Suddenly it feels as though everyone is cheerful again! It must be because Haruhi got her wish! All month, everything unusual that happened in the city, nothing ever made us afraid for our lives, right?

Quick! Everyone make wishes again to the mystical spirits guiding Desai! Let them know what you want out of this next month!

Everyone is so sad today! They're stressed and angry and bitter and afraid and giving up on their dreams and unsure of love and nervous and not all of them are coming into the Host Club so there's nothing that I can do about it! Everyone who's feeling this way, come at once! Our rates are very reasonable and we promise to ease the thorns of melancholy that are piercing your heart!

Ah... I think I could use a Host today as well. There's...an ache... in the tenderest parts of my heart...

DON'T GIVE UP, EVERYONE!! GANBATTE!!!

ATTENTION HOST CLUB CUSTOMERS!

Tomorrow the Host Club will be holding an impromptu Ice Cream Social to take advantage of the current explosion of flavor! Toppings will be provided, and for those guests currently deprived of flavors ice cream of all varieties will be available in bowls and cones as well! The student ice cream social will be from 4-6 PM; and the social for adults will be from 7-9 PM!

As always, all of us at the Host Club hope to see you there!

I dropped another vase.

[Tamaki strides on screen, melancholy and pouty but dressed to the nines in a classic tuxedo. He turns big, shining eyes toward the camera, and then, slowly, holds up a box with one hand. The word 'Charades' is clearly printed on the side. With his other hand, he lifts a second game - Pictionary.

For a long moment he looks at the screen. Soulfully. Imploringly. Pathetically.]

It's the start of another wonderful day at the beginning of another wonderful month! As always, I'm humbly grateful to be sharing the strange experiences in this wonderful city with everyone; and most especially with my fellow Hosts! And as always, you're all welcome to share those experiences with us: we're in the Starscape Hotel Auxiliary Ballroom every afternoon! Please stop by!

I have been wondering, though, if this city can read our minds and our wishes.... everyone should comment and tell one thing they wish for that would make this upcoming month even better than the last, and maybe (even if it's out of season) something like Orihime and Hikoboshi will be listening, and carry our wishes to wherever strange things come from!

Ah....

....perhaps I should practice my piano more....

Hikaru! Kaoru! Ten years in the future, Kyouya demanded an explanation from me, looking his regular age! That means he might be in Desai right now, and he might only be eight years old! I need you to find him right away!

Desai, ma ville belle, my heart has missed you! The romantic ache of far-away love was inspiring to every note of every concert, but off the stage, in the lonely hotel room, it was with me as well! Paris was as desolate and barren without love as an orchard in winter, and the stirring sights of Venice were quiet and empty. The conversation in Vienna could never compare to the warm camaraderie of amies et amours, and the night life in London simply made me miss the days of the Host Club that much more.

Being back now, at last, in the bosom of my beloved, is entirely too much joy! I must take everything in, must celebrate with wine and music and convivial company, must delight that at last my longing glances find the objects of their affections, and above all, must share it all with you, my city, until you may be as drunk and enchanted with bliss as I am!

TANABATA!

In order to help everyone's wishes come true, tomorrow Host Club prices will be half off, and all of our yukata (except the ones we'll be wearing, haha!) will be available for $10 rental!

Hi-karu! Kao-ru! Har-uhi! Min-ato, Ryoji, Fuuma! We have a guest stopping by to choose a lucky escort for herself this evening, everyone who can come by the Host Club and look your best!

...Help.

The date with Haruhi went very wrong somehow.

Ah! It's good to see so many new faces in town!

Attention those of you who are new to the city: if you're traveling alone and in need of a guide, a bodyguard, or simply the warm regard of congenial company, please look no further than the Desai Vacationer's Host Club! The Host Club is made up of charming young gentlemen with time on their hands looking to brighten the lonely holidays of young ladies who might otherwise be overwhelmed by all the strangeness of this astonishing city! It's a singular past-time almost unique to this marvellous city!

We are present in the Auxiliary Ballroom of the Starscape Hotel every weekday afternoon, hold special events and celebrations at least once a month, and are more than pleased to accompany our clients to parties and other social gatherings!

We at the Host Club hope to see you soon!

The dinner that Haruhi cooked tonight was very good. Knowing that the food was made with care by someone special would always make a meal delicious, and so this one was delicious twice over!

It was good to be able to have such a frank and heartfelt conversation in between two friends, rather than between father and daughter, or sempai and kohai, or professional colleagues, or... any other kind of relationship between two people that it would of course be foolish to misinterpret! Watching the diagram of what I said was very informative, and it is true that I will always be honored to be a very close friend of Haruhi's, and that if I had been expressing that it would have been in a very clumsy manner.

Ah... Fuuma-san, if it would not be too much trouble, staying in your guest room has been very exciting! Like a safari, but into commoner living rather than Africa. I-if you do not need the space for anything else, I would very much like to be able to continue staying here for a while! If this is a rude request, I am very sorry.

Haruhi will make a very good defense attorney, and the prosecutors will have to be very clear with the jury if they are going to have a chance of winning her heart.

Ah, or the case.

With the Starscape Hotel closed this week, all Host Club events will either have to be moved to a different venue or delayed! I know this is a sudden change, but regular customers, don't dismay! Hosts can still be designated for any outside events if you feel you might wither without the sunshine of our company! And anyone willing to help us hold an event this week will be our guest free of charge! Anyone with ideas or invitations can reach me at...ah....

...ah...

Where am I going to be staying this week?

[Tamaki is grinning into the camera, looking very relaxed, but there are a few various context clues that all is not normal. His hair is tousled, for one - not artfully windblown but actually rumpled and messy and unconditioned. The fact that he's wearing a slick black leather jacket over a scoop-necked flamingo-pink shirt is probably another clue. He's laughing a little as he talks.]

Well, I don't exactly remember last night, but my wallet's on the night stand and it's full of money, so I guess somebody had a pretty good time, right? I'm sore in all the right places this morning, too, but I should probably bail outta the hotel room before the maid service kicks me out - anybody got a place I could crash at in the meantime? Looks like I've got enough to pay, and I can always do some... housework on the side if you'd rather.

Huh. This place doesn't look much like Shinjuku, but every city's about the same, right? If you're having a slow evening and need a buddy for drinking or cards or a night on the town, let me know, all right?

I'll be waiting for your call!

Ah.....

I... would like to thank everyone for the surprise birthday party yesterday. It... it was very....

...surprising.

This! This would be a perfect time for a specially themed Host Club event! No-one would even require costumes! Though I do have a green tuxedo with a rose and gold cravat! Everyone should come down right away! Special discounts for all new species! It's a zoo theme! If you show up right away there will also be refreshments! Sunflower seeds and sesame-seed buns and poppyseed coffee cake! Haruhi! Minato! Ryoji! Fuuma! Nero! Sheska-san, Naoto-dono, all honored guests and associates and friends! EVERYONE COME DOWN RIGHT AWAY!

( Private // Totally not locked )

Minato! Haruhi! Ah... HOST CLUB! There is a princess whose heart is in difficulty, and we must take immediate action to help her!

Also, when Naoto-dono has the time to assist with the set-up for a detective event, it would still be very much appreciated... we can afford to pay a consulting detective's usual rates...

There is a strict limit to the type of antics the Host Club can tolerate for the development of an 'unruly' type of role.

Upsetting your fellow Hosts in this fashion is completely unacceptable.

The last few weeks have been very exciting! And despite purchasing two dozen dresses that seem to be unnecessary at the moment, the Host Club has made more in the last month than it did in the last quarter of last year!

THEREFORE, all of our profits will be turned to the benefit of the customer by providing for our Valentine's Day Party! As Valentine's Day is also the Chinese New Year, we will be celebrating by an unprecedented cosplay event: the Hosts will be dressed as your favorite heroes from the Romance of Three Kingdoms! All of the Auxiliary Ballroom will be redecorated to resemble an appropriate setting! And admissions and designations will be half off for any customers in authentic costume!

It will be the best Host Club party yet!
