01. [Video/Action]
Do you think we got this thing working, guys? It looks like it... Ah yes, we've definitely got it now. Hello there, ladies and gentlemen!
[For a moment the journal is swarmed by two pink blobs. Once Duplica says hello they both let out a few cries before backing off. One Ditto decides to stay on the floor, but the other jumps up into Duplica's arms.]
My name is Duplica. I've been here for some time already but I didn't feel like jumping right into using my journal here without first getting a better understanding of how it works. [Otherwise it would be like jumping up on stage without properly rehearsing for a role.] I think I get it now though! Of course, these two were a big help.
Anyway, I was wondering if any of you out there would mind giving me any spare clothes you might have. I'm sorry if that sounds a little strange, it's just I don't want to go and take too much from the clothing store you see.
[If she just went in and took enough clothes to make up all the costumes she had back home then the clothing store might have trouble outfitting anyone for the next few weeks.]
I think that's all there is to say right now, I hope the entire audience was able to catch that. Now Mini-Dit, say goodbye!
[At that, the Ditto that had remained on the floor slides back over to the journal, smothering it in pink again. Ditto transition, fade out!
A little time after addressing the journals, Duplica heads to the clothing store to see if she can find any of her costumes from home that might have shown up recently. Luckily, she's able to pick up this outfit pretty soon into her visit. She continues to look around the rest of the store whilst dressed up as everyone's favourite Pokemon nurse, accompanied by her two Ditto which hop and crawl after her all around the store. If anyone approaches her now she'll attempt to pull off her Nurse Joy impersonation, even if she doesn't have a Chansey to complete the look.]

[No really. :|a]
[action]
[With a gesture towards the front desk, Ditto flashes bright white before growing in size to match the full length of the desk, getting the dimensions and even the corner at the end down.
I hope I'm using the SOS floor plan right for this. Whateverwhatever, Ditto is now a long L-shaped 'desk'.Mini-Dit meanwhile has the task of transforming into a chair... Which ends up being the size of a small stool given how it transforms, but it gets the job. With the transformation finished, Duplica kicks back in a similar pose to what Haruhi was in before.]
Ta-da!
[action]
Groping Duplica.
Wait no that was brief and only because she was going to pull her off the chair to check the top of it.][
[action]
[Not that an Onix itself wouldn't be cool to look at, but a little pink blob growing to nearly ten meters high is even more impressive than a desk-
Waitwhat. Okay. Inspect the chair all you want, she's practically jumped out of the way after that. Both Ditto should feel vaguely of what they've transformed into but it should be easy to tell that something feels off. Despite Mini-Dit's size and how they feel though it's a perfect imitation.]
[action]
[And now she goes to sit on the little chair now, spinning on it imperiously before standing up and nodding to herself]
Okay, you all pass!
[action]
[But hey, a B- without even warming up before hand. That's pretty good for whatever this is. Ditto and Mini-Dit return to their normal forms and look equally as bemused as Duplica does.]
[action]
It's a walk in closet full as big as two Luceti bedrooms, filled with clothes. A changing station. A make up station. Stand up mirrors. Lots of costumes, a ton of more regular things, and everything between]
[action]
By the look on Duplica's face it's obvious that she's doing a poor job of hiding her excitement.]
This is incredible! You have everything anyone could ever need in here! [It's not long before Duplica walks on in and starts looking at all the clothes on display, with Ditto and Mini-Dit following along.]
[action]
[Which is way, mostly in the back furthest from the door, there's also other items. A chest with fireworks in it, props for things, other big items which didn't fit on the shelves in the main room (which were mostly books and board games), a tiki head or three]
[action]
[Don't mind as Duplica steps forward, into the clothes and emerges a moment later wearing a new outfit. She only changes her clothes for a moment before stepping forward again and reemerging in her original attire.]
Your SOS-Brigade really is something special, miss!
1/2
[action]
[...This is forceful for how she usually does things today. But she tries to look encouraging and imperious here. But she's totally smirking]
[action]
[Having enough costumes to hold a village wide costume party is a pretty good reason to join up. Plus Haruhi seems like a nice person, groping aside. It's no Pokemon council for the performing arts, buuut...]
I think you can add three more members to the SOS-Brigade!
[action]
[Finger waving, with a smile]
[action]
I'm sorry, but could you refresh my memory? I'm sure there's no better way to learn about the Brigade's goals than from the chief herself, after all.
[She'll get back to reading that part of the guide over. Promise.]
[action]
[KEH KEH]
But aside from that, the stated purpose of the SOS-Brigade is "To ensure that everyone in Luceti experiences a worthwhile life. The SOS-Brigade will be there to support troubled people in whatever capacity they need to be assisted."
[Recited from heart, even]
Basically, what this means is that the Spreading Excitement All Over the World with Haruhi Suzumiya Brigade - SOS-Brigade for short - is dedicated to making sure people live worthwhile lives and have some pleasure and enjoyment even in a world like this! Being wary or sad all the time isn't healthy for anyone, after all!
[action]
Those really are some wonderful aims, it's absolutely no fun at all to be sad all the time, like you said. Hopefully Ditto, Mini-Dit and myself won't let you down.
[Whilst speaking, Duplica tries on another outfit. And another. Thank goodness there are plenty of clothes in her size here.]
[action]
[wow she can really change quickly at things... cool]
[action]
[... Though she has no idea how she might deal with a client. There's probably more to seeing to a client than letting them rest awhile and entertaining them to keep them happy.]
I don't mind watching the front desk for you, if you like. Though I'm not sure how I would handle any clients, especially if they're asking for something specific.
[action]
[action]
[Time for a quick review. Duplica changes costumes again, this time going for whatever outfit matches Haruhi's as closely as possible. A quick clear of her throat to make sure she has the right voice down and she's off!]
I will be sure to do my best to ensure everyone here experiences a worthwhile life with the Spreading Excitement All Over the World with Haruhi Suzumiya Brigade. I have offered you my services, should you ever need them, and I shall follow the Chief's orders as absolute law. It is encouraged that members spend their free time here in case any clients show up and if I ever feel out of my depth then I should summon one of the officers, Keiichi Maebara or Azusa Miura. [Then, pointing to herself.] Or the Chief, Haruhi Suzumiya.
[action]
[action]
Ditto, Mini-Dit and I are going to be great stars one day.
[action]
[action]
[Is she dreaming right now? Landing in a different world with a ton of people to imitate, a whole new wardrobe of clothes and being offered help in her dreams of becoming a star is starting to seem way too good to be true.]
I've never had anyone help me like this before. Oh thank you, thank you so much!
