Was it unlocked this whole time? Guess what Dawn? Congrats, you're dumb.
But there's a noise. And, it's not ...bad. It's just---
"Hello?"
Her voice sounds a little gravelly as she speaks, and she clears her throat before doing so again. "...did you bring kittens?"

I brought food. [He holds up the canvas sack.] It should still be mostly hot, I live pretty close to here.

[Brooding momentarily broken, she smiles, unable to help it.] ...besides so cute! You said your name was Johan, right?
[Opening the door and stepping further back into the dim room, her smile only fading the faintest bit as she motions the green haired boy inside]
Oh my god, thank you, Johan, thank you, thank you. So much. The idea of food was ...ugh ...bad at first but now I think I could really use something to eat. Anything. I don't even---
---there's a table in here...I ran into it earlier. I-I've been afraid to turn the lights on ....well, I assumed there were lights. Stupid, I know.
...how do I turn the lights on?

"Dawn?" She hesistated. Just for a breath. "Is that you?"

[Dawn turns toward the sound, blinking. The room is somehow less ...ominous in the light, and even though the shadows are merely hiding, the presence of people is enough to pull her back from places inside her mind she'd rather not venture.]
Yes! Yes it's---
[Another muffled laugh as half her face is obscured by a flash of purple, more trilling and a
snuggle.]
So cute!It's me. I mean Dawn. I-is that you? [A pause.] ...Riza?
[A click and the latch gives at the first soft knock - the door slowly opens halfway.]
I have lights now. They're electric.

[The sounds... are odd. She isn't sure what to make of them, but at least Dawn doesn't sound so frightened.]
I'm glad. About your lights.
[She smiles softly, reassuringly.]
Can I come in?
Reply
Yes. C-come in.
[GAH. SORRY FOR THE DELAY.]

Dawn had mentioned Riza. She shouldn't be surprised that Riza was going to help as well. Riza was like that. That's how she'd met her. This was a good sign. Maybe Riza was finally healing from everything that had happened to her.
Utena finally made it back to the outlander apartments. As she stood in the entrance way she saw Riza outside of a door, presumably Dawn's. She walked over and gave Riza a nod in greeting. And waited for the door to open.

The corridor is still as dark as the last time he walked there -when he left. He walks to the only door that has light filtering under and whispers of voices - knocks once.

There's someone else! Should I tell them to---
---I should tell them to come in.
I mean, even if it is an evil thing from the Mist that wants to eat me (or whatever) ...there's kind of like a tiny army in here.
Come in.
We have noodles.

Getting awfully crowded in there -I should come back later.
Reply
I-if you want. Um. Wait. Who are---
---were you sending text messages? You're the one I'm supposed to ask Riza about, right?
