Haruhi held a large garish framed abstract-painting print against one clubroom wall. "KYON!! Help me put this up!!"

Kyon eyed the print skeptically. "Is that one of those 'Magic Eye' puzzles with a hidden 3-D picture of a sailboat?"

"Philistine," Haruhi huffed. "This painting depicts one woman's epic struggle to overcome mediocrity and realize her dreams."

Mikuru and Yuki walked up. "Is that a puzzle with a hidden 3-D sailboat?" Mikuru asked eagerly.

"THERE'S NO HIDDEN 3-D SAILBOAT!!" Haruhi yelled.

Yuki silently pointed, and traced a shape with her finger.

Haruhi blinked. "Oh, wow. There is a hidden 3-D sailboat."
