Blogathon 2007 - Five Things

nevacaruso - Five times Juri was convinced that she was the only sane person on the Student Council.
1. Let's not forget the day it all started, when they first saw the bloody upside-down castle. Juri's pretty sure she's the only one who wondered if she was going crazy. The others just sort of accepted it, but she knew better. Miracles didn't exist, but the possibility of an acid trip most definitely did.
2. The day Touga spent an entire semester's budget on one of his dates. She's honestly not surprised Saionji backed him up, but Miki should have had more of a spine about it, really.
3. The others all seem obsessed with the Rose Bride. Even Tenjou, in her own way. Juri isn't. Himemiya scares her on the bad days and annoys her on the good. Oh, she'd fight for the girl if winning her helped prove her point, but their ways would part beyond that, this Juri knows.
4. Hey, it isn't Saionji the faculty fears, for all his bluster. Touga and Nanami's money and popularity can't buy them respect, and smart as Miki is it hasn't made him leader. If she looks at it like that, she's all but running Ohtori.
Then again, this might well make her the crazy one.
5. She leaves as soon as she graduates and doesn't look back. Maybe the others did likewise, maybe not. All Juri knows is that the outside world is waiting for her and there's nothing left for her within Ohtori's walls.

Go, Juri!
