Kyon, Itsuki and others in “The Day of Sagittarius”

[thinking] Every day, I hang out with an alien, a time traveler, and an esper...and I'm still as sane and objective as ever. Hmm...I wonder if that makes me special or something. I'm sure Lacan's dying to have a word with me!

You seem worried. Is something wrong?

[aloud] Nope. I was just thinking about how awesome I am for being able to cope with this absurd situation. And if you ask me, I think I'm due for a little praise.

You're right. Well, would you like me to give you some words of praise, then?

You praising me won't make me any happier. All it will do is make me think you've got something up your sleeve.

[laughs] True enough!
