No! No, no, Honey-senpai...[Give him a second, he's actually jamming a hand into his pocket and pulling out an old cell phone. He's clicking though before he pulls up a photo of the Host Club. All seven of them. He's pointing to the short blond clinging to the back of the tall dark-haired boy.] This is Honey-senpai.
[ he looks like he's 12. Mizuki is also a little charmed-slash-distracted by Tamaki's antique phone, but they don't comment on it for the moment, instead looking over at him with a raised eyebrow. ]
That's your senpai? Wow. He's so youthful that I feel jealous.
[He's just laughing a little. Also please ignore that it's definitely a flip phone because Ouran is old as sin.]
Haninozuka is his family name. He's actually the eldest of all of us. He's in his third year of high school along with Mori-senpai. [He points to Mori in the photo.] The loli-shota type, and the wild type.
It is! I've seen pictures of these online before. I've heard they were basically indestructible.
[ they may be confusing his phone with a Nokia. In any case, they're gentle with it, indestructible or not, and squint at the small photo of his friends. ]
So that's your Kyoya-kun... He looks like he'd be the #1 in your class, doesn't he? Haha. [ nodding. ] The other three are?
I don't know about indestructible, though I take care of my things. [Thanks Mizuki. He's leaning over to look at the photo again.]
He's brilliant. And this is Hikaru and Kaoru...and Haruhi. They're first years but have been members of our club for some time now. Haruhi is the newest, but she's caught on rather quickly.
Yes! Truthfully, we didn't quite realize she was a girl until after we'd already struck a deal that she would be working off her debt to us by becoming a host. Before we outfitted her with an appropriate uniform, she...didn't put a lot of care into her appearance.
[Still doesn't, but Tamaki apparently likes her all the same anyway.] The Host Club are the only people who know, however. Everyone else at Ouran continues to believe she's a boy and we've never corrected them.
Ha ha. Gender's such a trivial thing, after all. [ they nod, seemingly in approval, then hold his phone back out to him. seems like haruhi and mizuki have similar outlooks on life... ] I like her. You all look adorable, though.
That's what Haruhi said. [And he'll pretty much believe anything Haruhi says.] She's never cared about if she looks like a boy or a girl because she values other things and believes she should be judged on her capabilities. [Still, his eyes linger on the photo and his smile grows softer.]
I like her very much. [And then, just as quickly and assuredly:] All of them are very important to me. But I imagine they'll do fine without me, too. They're incredible people.

Honey-senpai...?
[ what a name... they make a single assumption from this. ]
Tamaki-kun, did you have a girlfriend back home?

[ the early 2000s were a wild time, and Mizuki doesn't understand... they're mostly teasing him, though. ]
Oh, can I see your phone? I've never seen one that old before in person.
no subject
The cool type, the little devil type, and the natural type. [Pointing at Kyoya, the twins and Haruhi in that order.] We cater to everyone.
[It's an old phone but it was new for him, probably.] Is it really that old...? Well to you this must be a relic.

You have a girl in your host club? That's unexpected.
