.. yeah. [ Ange is definitely sounding shy over here. It's not often that she starts to sound like this - but if it could happen around anyone, of course it'd be around Ruby of all people.

If not just because she's just so glad and relieved to hear Ruby thinks about this the same way. Not that Ange didn't expect as much, since they're often on the same line about stuff like this, but.. it's nice all the same.

She reaches out, grabbing Ruby's hand to hold it in her own. ]

I mean, I was honestly already that far with you when we promised to move on from Deerington together. [ It's the truth. Ange wouldn't have done that if she didn't have so much faith in the fact that she and Ruby would stay together, that they'd keep liking each other so much.

That's why they chose life. For their love.

Marriage and weddings and stuff might be a slightly more complicated topic, given the extra layer on top of that, and also the last wedding Ange saw back home having been.. well, wild. But this in contrast feels easy. It feels like something she just automatically chose. It's the confirmation of their bond between just the two of them, without having to involve anyone else yet and make some big deal out of it. Ange likes that. ]

I want to be connected with you.
