♘ duel the third. ( action, video. )
[There's no video, initially--only the sound of a basketball bouncing hollowly, the sound of sneakers scraping against the ground.
The video flickers on. Rose petals--white and red, flutter to the ground, from some unknown source. There's a slightly unnerving moment where girl-shaped shadows flicker along the surface of the mirror before Utena shows up, a triumphant expression on her face.]
Wow, it really worked! [She runs along the court, and the shadows chase after her, along the trees. They stop, one on each tree, facing one another, and seem to be in the midst of a conversation. Utena, however, appears unaware. She shoots a basket, she scores! The Shadow Girls go wild! Complete with shadow pompoms and shadow confetti.
The ball rolls to a stop at her feet, and she frowns and falls into a series of stretches.]
It's no fun without anyone else.
[The shadows appear to be squabbling. Utena scratches the back of her head, and starts to bounce the basketball around again.]
[ooc: Utena's made a basketball court. A... really weird one! Feel free to bug her! Aww yeah. If anyone points out the Shadow Girls to her, she won't notice them. Yeah, I don't get it either. lol weird ass canon.]
