I'll have whatever she's having. And some cinnamon buns. The extra floppy kind.
Allow me to introduce you to the best buns in Anatole, Utena.

Maybe you have gotten taller. And since when did this place serve cinnamon buns?

Since Ax started working here. You know, maybe he could give me some pointers on the Utena. Like, maybe blueberry flavored with pink frosting and yeah, definitely those little plastic swords.
I looked at Berend's but no dice. Or ...swords.
[She sees that eye, Utena.]
I did. I'm totally old now. It's like ...three years for the price of one.
[Aaaaand she's reaching for the plate that's being handed to her, setting it down with a flourish.]

Huh. Well, guess I can't have everything. [She laughs.]
You aged three years in the year that I was gone? How does that work?! How old are you now, then? [Utena was decent at math but this one doesn't add up. Excuse the pun, please.]

Who knows. I mean, they get new stuff all the time, so we can keep checking. Or maybe even make some. You know, I bet Alphonse could make those! All we need is some kind of plastic.
[This part is a little hard, and the cinnamon bun in her mouth gives her some extra time to think of just how to answer without saying too much. Or too little.]
Last January I tried to do this spell? And it was kind of a stupid idea but I was really freaked out? A-and it worked ...sort of. A spell happened, but I ...ended up poofing. Into a floaty green ball out in the ruins. Missed my fifteenth that way.
My uh...
...sixteenth came a couple months later, when I found Riza. I...
...it was like I was right there and then I wasn't, I was remembering all this stuff from back home that hadn't happened yet. Like the Door or the Mist or ...I don't know what was just ( ... )

Make them? He can do that? Neat!
[Utena starts to eat one of the buns, listening as Dawn tried to explain everything. Once Dawn stops she swallows her last bite.]
Huh. This place does some really weird things. Well, happy belated birthdays then! [An awkward smile] hope you don't mind really, really late presents...
These really are good buns.
