Hello! You have reached Fuu Hououji. I may be out, or possibly engaged in a life-or-death struggle. Please leave a message and I will get back to you just as soon as I return... if I do.
[ah... yes. She had a similar conversation recently with another newcomer.]
Well... strange as it sounds, time passes differently here than at home. You would return at the moment you left, without having left anyone in the lurch. [She presses her fingers to her lips, thinking about how Utena worried about forgetting her friend.] They do quite a lot to make us feel at home. But it's hard to forget about the things you were in the middle of. People who are here for years do grow and they may think differently than if they'd grown at home, but I don't believe that means they stop worrying about where they came from.
