[There's a pause, and then Utena's hesitant, blocky handwriting forms on the page.]

Matron? Um...Namine, Rinoa, Catty? Is everyone okay? I wish I'd been here to help...

Oi, Sora. I want a swimming rematch when everything is fixed again. [recorded: "Geez, who knew he could swim that fast?"]

[After a moment:] Say, if anyone needs help with the ( Read more... )

[After the Quidditch match. Utena is infusing her voice with good cheer, 'cause that's how she rolls.]

Hey, congratulations to the Hufflepuff team! You guys did a great job. It was a good match. Uh, geez. Real sorry, Komachi. I hope you're okay.

[A beat and....oh gotta be a good captain. ] Rinoa, Luke, you guys did really good! Say, Gryffindor ( Read more... )

[The voice...sounds like Utena, but there is something distinctly different about the tone.] My my, this is an unfortunate turn of events. I hope it's all resolved soon.

In the meanwhile...would any young ladies like to accompany me for a round of flying around the Quidditch pitch? [a beat, and yes, she is actually managing to sound smooth.] I've ( Read more... )

[Utena's voice is thoughtful, and a little faraway sounding, as if she's talking to herself. There's the sound of gentle wind -- our revolutionary girl is, in the way of all mopey heroes, sitting on a rooftop.]Y'know...I understand why points are lost for sneaking out and all, and I understand everyone who cares about points is upset right now, but ( Read more... )

[there's a bit of shuffling, and then a fuzzy image of a certain befuddled looking Quidditch captain pops up. She looks a little frazzled, but smiles, and rubs the back of her head.]Say, does anyone have a broom-repair kit I can use for a while? Last practice, my broom got banged up by a Bludger, so I've gotta knock the kinks out before we have a ( Read more... )

[Utena coughs. There's some page-flipping and grumbling, and then:]

Almost to the ball, huh? Heh, it's been a while since I danced...geez, is everyone else getting chocolates and all? It's kind of embarrassing. I found a love letter stuffed in my journal a couple of days ago. [a sigh, and then a laugh.]

...Say, Himemiya. I've got a question for

OI!

[There's galloping noises, and whinnying...and sparkling. Utena's voice carries over -- there's the sound of a struggle.]

Let go of me! ...Whoa, put me down! [There is an un-Utenalike, girlish shriek.]

H-hey! Where are we--

[BOOM! STAREXPLOSION!

And more sparkle noises. Now Utena sounds panicked:]

Someone help!

[Utena's voice is low, she's muttering something:]
Maybe I could write her or something...

[a sigh] I hope she'll be all right in the Outside World.

[She trails off, and then pipes up again:] Uh, Naminé, I haven't seen you in a while. Are you doing okay?

[After a moment, in a softer tone of voice:]Say...Chiyo-chan. Did you...still want to learn ( Read more... )

[There's nothing in Utena's voice that indicates she's anything other than cheerful. It's almost strange, the good mood she's in.] I hope everyone's doing okay after that...week. Geez. It was pretty hectic, huh? I'm glad everyone's back to normal now.

[a pause, and now she sounds contemplative and distant. As if she's talking to herself:] Say, d' ( Read more... )

[The sound of Utena stumbling over several boxes. A muttered curse.]

Geez, this is getting ridiculous.

All these letters and gifts are okay I guess, but just so we're all clear, I'm not wearing my hair down just 'cause people like it. It's fine the way it is. I'm not gonna be able to eat all this candy ( Read more... )
