[Early Tuesday morning, Utena is returned to Luceti.

Well, technically.

This Utena Tenjou is not one who seems to be accustomed to this place in the slightest. When she wakes up, running a hand through her short pink hair, she has no idea where she is. Is this another thing connected to that weird Rose Bride girl?

Then she notices the plain white dress on her person. Her expression hardens--she's decided to become her own prince, dresses don't suit her anymore. Fortunately, she also catches sight of her own clothes--including her hat--folded next to her out of the corner of her eye.

It's when she reaches for her clothes that she notices her journal. Except... she doesn't recognize it as hers. She does notice that it has her name on it, but...

This is just too strange, but curiosity draws her to pick it up and look at it. This isn't any sort of book she's used to. Eventually, she accidentally turns on the recording device.]

Wait, is this really...? [She sighs.] I wonder if this is someone's idea of a joke, or if I've been kidnapped. If they really want that strange girl so badly, they could just duel me to win her... I have no need for the Rose Bride.

[No need for her, or anything she does to the people she's "engaged" to.]

((OOC: And so, Utena is back! She has returned as her movie self, a little while after talking to Touga and Anthy by the pool but before the confrontation in the Rose Garden. This Utena is more withdrawn for the most part, but also more open with flirting when it comes to girls [if her interaction with Wakaba in the beginning is supposed to mean anything.] This effect will last for a little over a week.))
