Something seems... unusual. But it does not appear to be physical, and my mental capabilities are the same. Perhaps after I finish with Shiki-chan's--

... Eh?

((There will be no samas or sans because Hisui will be addressing people with either affectionate honorifics or terms of endearment. Witness the horror.))

Hm. Would it be possible to demonstrate? I will not force you to if you do not wish.

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

... For example, you know how I would usually address you, correct?

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

"Sagara-san", correct?

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

Yes. However, should I attempt to say that now, I would only result in saying honey.

.....

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

That is most confusing, as I am certain I am not made of any such substance.

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

There are others.

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

So saying my name again would yield a different result? Or does it only vary from one person to the next? Though I suppose that is a rather minor detail.

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

It would appear that the results differ with each utterance.

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

I see. That being the case, until this effect wears off, I will assume that any unusual manner of addressing me is meant to be replaced with "Sagara-san". This is not a problem.

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

I thought it would be better if you were at least forewarned.

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

Naturally. It is better to do so in order to avoid a miscommunication.

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

And now you fully understand the situation.

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

Precisely. As such, you do not need to worry about censoring yourself around me.

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

Understood.

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

...ah, by the way. I am hearing discussion of New Years celebrations, but I am unfamiliar with traditional festivities for the holiday. Do you know of any?

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

Festivities? There are several I know of, but I do not practice them.

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

That is alright. Anything you can list would be appreciated; I am attempting to adapt to social norms.

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

Many people pay visits to shrines, but that may solely be a Japanese custom. I have heard others make resolutions.

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

Resolutions...yes, that I have heard of. Though I do not see the point of waiting for the New Year to make one.

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

It would appear to be due to a new year arriving that those making resolutions have been given a new start, conveniently.

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

New start, new year. I see the correlation.

Hm. Do you make resolutions?

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

Myself, personally?

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

Correct.

[pancakesarehard.livejournal.com]

I resolve to improve myself daily.

[lambda-driven.livejournal.com]

Likewise.

This makes it rather hard to come up with a specific resolution for the holiday, then.
