First appearance in Yuri Hime! Haruhana Aya —02 -1 Fairy Tail Fantasia. It’s a Otome-game based on fairytales and set in a magical school. -2 But one day coming home… I got careless and ended up dying in a traffic accident. When I came to… -3 I had become Snow, the protagonist of “FTF”, my beloved game! —03 -1 And… -3 I remember everything. -5 My destiny… Good morning… —04 -1 Maria-sama! Snow! You again?! -2 Maria V Bradbury. In love with the ruling family’s only son, Prince White, she’s the rival interfering with the protagonist. -3 So in other words, she’s the classic villainess. But she’s also the one I love. —05 -1 The way she’s so selfish, combined with her towering pride, just makes her so cute! I also love how greedy and tough she is… hw- How she supports from the shadows and how she’s so jealous really rocks too! -2 Maria-sama, you’re so beautiful today, as always! -3 sfx- Hmph You’re a commoner, so your thoughts hardly count. -4 You’re just like some slavering lap dog, hm? It’s so cute how you never give up and always follow me around. sfx- Snicker -5 Dog… So that would work for you? hw- To be the dog of the girl I love! hw- You really weird me out Why do you seem to be so into that? —06 -1 Ehem! -2 Um… Maria-sama? It wouldn’t do to go overboard with the teasing. -3 sfx- Snicker Snicker Right? -4 In any case. What you do… Is absolutely no concern of mine. -5 Just don’t get in my way. Understood? —07 -1 I know I’m just repeating myself, but… -2 Why are you even here? The only one I invited was White-sama! But White-sama invited me along… You should have turned him down! -3 I just happened to run into Snow on the way. Prince White -4 I’m sorry to bring your spirts down. No… That’s not it at all… Then all is good. —08 -1 hw- By the way Let’s move on to the main topic. Today I have something to discuss with you Lady Maria. I would love to be able to rely on house Bradbury. -2 For the upcoming society ball. -3 The society ball. The school’s biggest event, held one year from now. At the height of it, Maria will be expelled from the school. -4 She’ll be removed from the game. —09 -1 Clench -2 I haven’t been able to save her, no matter how often I replayed it. But, now that I’m here… -3 I might be able to save her in this world! sfx- Clatter Um! -4 Well… Um… I… I think that… -5 Um… Ma… That Maria-sama… —10 -1 I think that maybe Maria-sama shouldn’t attend the ball. OhGawd, I’m blowing this! -2 Nyaaa I just wanted to keep her away from the ball! I’ve always sucked at lying or pretending! -3 Just what nonsense are you saying? That I shouldn’t attend the ball? ###bold and italicize “I” sfx- Argh Ah, Yeah, that’s not going to work, right? -4 sfx- Clatter Up until now, I’ve overlooked your churlish commoner ways, but… I simply cannot take this anymore! —11 -1 sfx- Whish There are limits to how much a fool you can make of me! -2 Snow! -3 Ah… I know this route… White covers me, and Maria-sama’s reputation plummets. It’s what triggers the flag for her to be expelled. -4 What do I do now?! At this rate, Maria-sama will be…! —12 -1 Splash -3 What? -4 You just did that on purpose. Why? -5 Drip —13 -1 I just… really wanted to get drenched down to my toes by tea. Is there really even such a thing? -2 Ah… Right! -3 Are you ok, White-sama? -4 Ah… Yes. —14 -1 sfx- Nab Ah, whew. Ok, well, we’ll be taking our leave now. Wha?! -2 sfx- Drag Drag Drag Why do I have to go?! sfx- Drag -3 Hey… Hey! -4 sfx- Wh-pish Enough! Let go of me! -5 What is with you? Suddenly grabbing my hand like that? Are there no limits to you impudence? -6 And… I wasn’t finished talking to his highness… —15 -1 Um, so look! sfx- Jolt -2 If you had splashed the heir apparent with tea, what would you have done? Your whole noble house might have been eradicated! That’s… -3 That’s because you… -4 You did… You… -5 What you say is true. —16 -1 Yes… Indeed. That’s true. -2 sfx- Fwish I was being rash. Whoa! -3 Whoa! It’s all clean! That you for preventing that. -4 If I were to become despised because of that… I’d… sfx- Throb —17 -2 Shake Shake Shake Shake -3 Clasp -4 Y’know… I’m totally rooting for you and White-sama. -5 I want the one I love to be happy. -6 Snow… —18 -1 The Bradbury house has held the title of Count for many ages. But currently it’s in decline. -2 Everyone surrounding me is always watching how I react. Even though they are looking down on me as well. I… might have misjudged you… -3 Hm? -4 Hey! If you hadn’t been there in the first place, none of this would have ever happened! sfx- Zap ###repeat Ow! Owie! Please stop stinging me with your magic! —19 -1 After that… I’ve been busting my butt trying to prevent Maria-sama from being expelled. hw- Following Maria-sama. -2 Rooting for Maria-sama’s relationship with White. -3 And going to classes, of course. -4 Just what are you doing? -5 Snow? hw- You can go on ahead What am I doing? I was just asking for directions! -6 If you were just asking directions, she wouldn’t look so scared. I’m telling the truth! Huh? Have you lost weight? hw- Whose fault is that? Sigh… —20 -1 There’s not much time before the ball. Let’s just play it cool. -2 Hey… -3 Why have you worked yourself into such a tizzy over the ball? hw- Is there some issue I should be aware of? Wha?! -4 hw- I can’t say she’s gonna be expelled There’s no way I can tell her the truth… -5 So, um… -6 hw- At the ball I don’t want… you to suffer… heartbreak. It’s not a lie… What? -7 Are you intimating that I would suffer heartbreak? ###Bold and italicize “I” Ah… No! It’s… —21 -1 I just want you to stay perfect as always. Hmm? -2 Well… I guess you can’t be faulted for thinking that way. sfx- I mean, just look at me Whew! hw- Well, she doesn’t look displeased -3 Ah! -4 And I was just thinking it would nice if we could dance together. Dance? At the ball? -5 You say the strangest things. Of course women don’t dance with each other. A ha… Ha ha ha… —22 -1 I guess you’re right. -3 Snow… Ah! —23 -1 Look over there! It’s White-sama. Hm? Ah, indeed. -2 hw- Come on then! Hurry up and get going! Hey! Don’t you push me! -3 Come on, already… —24 -5 And so the year went by. —25 -1 The day of the ball. My stomach hurts… -2 Today is the day of Maria-sama’s expulsion. I’ve been watching over her for a whole year. The two of them don’t seem to be doing badly either. sfx- Mutter Mutter I’m sure the expulsion can be avoided! -3 Ah, Snow! So here you are. -4 White-sama. Is something the matter? hw- Huh? Where’s Maria-sama? I’ve been looking for you. I’m glad I was able to find you. -5 Over this last year… I have always been watching you from your side. You always put forward your best effort, and are kind to everyone. I have come to love you… So… —26 -1 Snow. May I have the pleasure of this dance? -3 Whaa?! -4 Um… I do beg you pardon, but… Wait just a moment! -5 That is the one thing I cannot allow even the prince to have! Snow! I wish for you to dance with me! -6 No! I am the one who will dance with Snow! No! Me! I-I also want to…! ###you go, girl —27 -1 sfx- Oh my gawd… Don’t tell me… that while I was following Maria-sama… sfx- Clamor Clamor Other people have been increasing their affections towards me? -2 hw- Forget that!

Uh… —30 -1 Are you going to force me to spell it out? -2 Right now… I want to be with you. —31 -1 Bu… -2 But… But you love White-sama… Right? -3 Ah. That? -4 That was just to restore the fortunes of house Bradbury. No harm it currying favor with the Prince, right? To marry into a wealthy family…?! hw- A hidden motive! -5 Well, I have already given up on that. And it’s not as if I could bring myself to like him. So… —32 -1 I’ll just have to make things work using my own devices. -2 As the next head of the house. Hm? -3 sfx- Slump Snow? -4 Re… —33 -1 Really? I’m soo relieved! -2 Ah… No… Aha… I didn’t mean to say that… -3 As long as you are alive… As long as you are happy, that’s all I want. I thought I had given up already… -4 Ahaha I’m sorry… —35 -1 I… Am greedy. -2 What I want, I take. Until I am satisfied. So… -3 You are to always stay by my side from now. You are to always be looking at me. -4 Are we understood? —36 -1 I can see nothing but you, Maria-sama. -2 Ah! But! Please just look at me too, okay? Do not get too full of yourself! sfx- Zap! Owie!
