The Shadow King's Other Side

My mind is in flames, Haruhi's smarter than me, Please, God, make it stop

When you upload a chapter right midnight so technically you uploaded on time... YEET

So, this week we're back to the original story. Time-wise we're at the beginning of Episode 3, and I know that 11 chapters are too long for 2 episodes, but that included my own ideas, the tag, the special chapters and the introduction. Please forgive me if I go out of schedule, but I try not to go more than 3 weeks without updating. School started again (kill me pls) and it'll be harder to write because exams - and my brain is already fried. Anyway, I'll try to update on time and not die during this year, wish me luck.

P.S: (I/O/C) means Instrument of Choice, as in musical instruments. Sorry for my non-musical readers out there, I don't mean to offend you.

(Y/N)'s Point Of View:-

Today, the Host Club decided to have their usual talk over tea outside, for flower viewing. I must admit the landscape was beautiful since petals of sakura flowers were falling from the trees, making it look 'moe' yet classical and traditional. It was relaxing to be in the open air and do something different to the norm, especially after a long day of classes indoors.

After the Christmas party, (we don't speak about that - it was a mess for everyone) especially the situation with Haruhi, I decided to stay at the sidelines of hosting - at least for a while. By that, I meant that instead of being, you know, a host, I would maybe help out with the organisation of events, the financial side of things, or play music - the option I was the most comfortable with.

So, for today I was playing relaxing classical music using a/an (I/O/C) - since the Host Club was set in a music room, there are all sorts of instruments because of the school's wealth. Kyoya, Tamaki, and the Twins were dressed like butlers/waiters, which I found mildly amusing. Haruhi, Mori and Honey were dressed in kimonos, which I thought suited them all very well.

The main talk going around was Tamaki charming the ladies, as usual; some conversations starting here and there about the types of tea sets and antiques - which we have plenty of, thanks to Kasuga-kun.

Then, of course, we had the daily dose of twincest from the Hitachiins; this time Kaoru knocked a cup of tea over and burned himself, which cued their scene. Well, I say cued, but I don't know if it was actually planned for them to do that on purpose or not, but it sure like it did. It was just so cliché and happens exactly at the right time to grasp their guests' attention. If it wasn't scripted, then, well done to them, to be able to pull off such a dramatic scene out of the blue is no easy feat. I mean, look at it, that looked like a page straight out of a yaoi manga. (Not that I'm complaining).
