[There's a quiet rustle, and the blur of green gradually begins to separate into whites, blacks, browns. An eye fills the mirror, framed by a thin black rim.

Any minute now, the eye will blink.

Any minute now.]

Ah, I see.

[She doesn't exactly relax, but she moves further in, returning her attention to the room.]

I don't think I am hungry, after all.

[A blink.] All right. No tea, either?

[And Utena slips off her shoes, unwinds the scarf around her neck to put it away.] Do you need a tour? Er, but it's the same as our old dorm, so maybe you don't.

[Anthy's only answer is a vague smile before she begins to remove her own shoes, smoothing her the pleated skirt as she leans down. The white shift is folded neatly under a bush somewhere well behind them.]

It may not be necessary, Utena-sama.

[Mostly the same, but not caked with decades of dust. The requirement that each victor inhabit a different room can be inconvenient.

She spares a moment of regret for the octopus float.]

[She gives Anthy a quizzical look, but that's really nothing new. Many of Anthy's idiosyncrasies were lost on Utena, and their time apart hasn't changed that.] Once you settle in, I can show you around the Gardens...er, that's what everyone calls this place.
