5th duel - FOURTH WALL 2014

[revolutionarygirl]

[Catchall post was a failure last year, so we're not doing that this year.

Woah, sure is a bunch of new people here suddenly, huh? Utena will be all over the town this weekend to see if she can find anyone familiar. With such a jump in number, it's certainly possible.

Right?]

Because Jean Kirstein, my friend, told me himself. He was going to aim for the Military Police at first, but...

[She knows the only reason she's bothering to explain is for Jean himself. She can't let this guy go around saying things like he is. Even if things are a little awkward for her and Jean right now...

She'll try not to think about that.]

[revolutionarygirl]

We don't have the kind of military that exists where you're from, no. No walls, either. Everything Jean's told me about his world is completely different from mine.

[And she still wishes she could help.]

[wasteddreams]

Look, I don't even know you, and I have no idea what the hell you're talking about, but it ain't funny.

[revolutionarygirl]

I never said it was funny. It hasn't been funny for any of this!

[And then it finally hits her: he might not know about Luceti and how it works. But is there really any point in telling him, when he's this drunk? Would he even believe her?]

Besides, you're right. I don't know you, either. You have to be someone else.

[corruptedambitions]

[This girl... She keeps talking like she knows Jean very well. Like she considers him a friend. It strikes him as odd, because if they're from different worlds and haven't met before reaching this place, how much time would they have had to talk?]

I trust he hasn't been a burden to you.

[revolutionarygirl]

Huh? Oh, no. Not at all. I've really liked having Jean around.

[Just ignore the slight blush along her cheeks. It's still really hard not to think about the mistletoe incident.]

[heymiki]

[Miki tried to open his mouth but he closed it. There was only
so much he could follow anyway, so he'll just go with it?]

But Utena-sempai, how could you and everyone have wings? That just
seems really odd!

[Pause]

What is going on?

[wasteddreams]

I can be whoever you want me to be, or whoever you don't want me to me. [He shrugs.] Can't say I give a shit.

[corruptedambitions]

[He frowns lightly. The girl's sentiment doesn't exactly correspond with the first impression most others would get from Jean.]

We're talking about Jean Kirstein, right? Tall gentleman, Military Police member, usually intoxicated...
