Utena drabbles
Okay, I've regained some equilibrium. Crisis averted.
My claim at
femslash100 is long expired, but I still intend to finish my Utena fairytale drabbles. Just two this time.
Title: Swan
Prompt: The Ugly Duckling
Fandom: Revolutionary Girl Utena
Pairing: Juri/Shiori

Years ago, before the locket, Juri and Shiori used to talk about the future. Juri wanted to be a fencer, a model, or (one odd afternoon) a champion bowler.
"I'm going to be important," Shiori said once. "I'm going to be beautiful."
Juri looked at the brightness in Shiori's eyes. She followed the lines of Shiori's legs, the swell of her breast. A few stray hairs had fallen in Shiori's face and Juri imagined brushing them away. She imagined kissing Shiori. Instead she stared at the ground. "I think you're beautiful now," she murmured, but she didn't think Shiori heard.
Title: Over the Hills and Far Away
Prompt: The Pied Piper of Hamelin

It wasn't that Wakaba disliked Himemiya. She was a nice girl. But there was something... off about her. Utena had become different, since becoming friends with her.
When Utena looked into Himemiya's eyes, it was like she couldn't see anything else. As if Himemiya's voice was a song only she could hear. And that should have been fine. Wakaba wanted nothing more than to see her friend happy. But something wasn't right.
Being with Himemiya had made Utena brighter, but also more distant. And as she watched, a small part of Wakaba's heart cried out, Please don't take her away.
She never breathed a word of it to Utena. Sometimes she tried to catch Himemiya's eye, but the other girl would only smile blankly at her.
So, Wakaba made Utena lunch and hugged her, and tried not to think of the day Utena would go somewhere she could never follow.
