[Something briefly twitches in Mami's face at the mention of Anthy's name; her lips press together into a thin line, and she's on the verge of cutting Utena off solely to ask that she not bring up her precious Himemiya. It's a selfish thought, a selfish desire, but Mami can't help but feel angry that the last time she sees Utena will revolve, once more, around the goddamned Rose Bride. That even this one, small thing will be eclipsed by the girl, will be taken from Mami without any consideration for her own feelings.
But she quells the urge in her tired, patient way, and Utena continues to speak. Mami just watches her steadily and nods for her to continue; there's no hope in her eyes, only a glimmer of polite, yet dull interest in hearing what Utena has to say. After all, what could any of it matter? It doesn't surprise her at all, the admittance that Utena was dishonest out of fear, and no matter what the other girl had held back on that day by the tree......when it came to the here and now, she was still going to leave.]
