[ It makes even more sense especially because Mabel or Oscar were the only ones involved, really. Ange and Ruby may technically only barely be adults, but they're still a lot younger than those two. Of course it would make Ruby want to protect them from that sort of thing even more.

For now the thought slides out of Ange's mind though, as she finds thoughts often do whenever Ruby gets this close and affectionate. It's hard to think about anything but Ruby like this. Her cold, yet affectionate arms, her voice, the way she always makes sure to express her gratitude, even when she's feeling down..

Ange's heart beats a little faster, and she slowly exhales. ]

Okay, how about we save the thanks until after this has been proven to actually work? [ It's a slight joke, but Ange doesn't move out of their current positions at all. She's enjoying it way too much. ] Otherwise you're going to have thanked me in such a grandiose way for nothing.

[ Ange is pretty sure it should work though. Unless that book lied to her. Which.. isn't entirely out of the question though, she figures. ]

And there's also the possibility that we might end up viewing one of our nastier memories.. But I'm sure we could handle that together. [ Especially when they've already seen so much of each other at this point. Especially when they were fighting their worlds' respective witches together. ] And I don't have a single memory that I'd feel the need to hide from you, anyway.

[ Ruby has already seen so many different sides of her.

Ange likes to think that means there's nothing she could show the other that would suddenly make Ruby dislike her, at this point. ]
