[OOC][PLOT] The Seventh Thread of Planning for Arc 1 - Arrivals

[robkelk]

Either Itou Kanae is a very good actress - which she is - or she actually thought reindeer don't exist - which she might have.

Itou Kanae – “Do Reindeer Exist?”

Starting with an in-character bit recorded in advance:

Saten: “Misaka-san”
Misaka: “Hmm?”
Saten: “Until when did you stop believing in Santa?”
Misaka: “Hmm at around the time I was 10 years old?”
Saten: “Whoa that’s pretty late! Then how about reindeer?”
Misaka: “Reindeer?”
Saten: “Yeah when did you stop believing in reindeer?”
Misaka: “Umm Saten-san, reindeer really do exist…”
Saten: “Huh? What? Reindeer are fictional creatures aren’t they? As if those flying creatures could exist!”
Misaka: “Uh well… How should I put this… Well let’s just get on to the announcements!”
Saten: “…okay…”
(The two of them announce news and releases regarding Index and Railgun)
Saten: “Umm, So Misaka-san… Reindeer don’t really exist right?”
Misaka: “Saten-san… You should have Uiharu-san take you to a zoo sometime.”
Saten: “Huh?”

Which lead to a similar discussion between Ruiko's seiyuu and the radio show host on the live broadcast.


It didn't take long for this fan art of Saten-san quoting somebody from a completely different anime (who we won't name because she has the "protect her privacy" bar across her eyes) to appear.

I trust we all remember the text, since she's quoting straight from that scene...




"So, what does this have to do with There's Nothing Better?", I hear you ask.

Elementary!

We still haven't written the Christmas Party story, and I'm pretty sure both Ruiko and Tomo will be in attendance.

If we're really lucky, they'll feed off of each other's comments and convince Sakura and Shaoran that reindeer don't exist...
