Don't worry, it's nothing serious.

[ Considering it's October, Ange figures she might as well make sure to say that first, rather than omniously leaving him on read as she heads over...

But after she sends that, Ange goes move down to the library, entering the room and spotting Oscar there like he said. ]


Hey. It's just about..

[ Ange glances behind her for a moment.

She's pretty sure Ruby is out at the moment, but with that girl? You never know for sure. ]


It's about Ruby's birthday. I'm sure you know that the one she had last year was.. um. [ Ange frowns a little. How to describe 'I saw her trying to celebrate her birthday with weird pretend versions of all of you.. ] .. less than optimal.

[ The understatement of the year. ]

[ It's not too surprising to hear that Oscar tried to help Ruby out in that situation. It's clear as day just how close the two of them are, after all. But even if it's not a surprise.. it's still just a relief - always a relief to hear how many people are looking out for Ruby.

When he continues on and does that suggestion though, Ange just nods. ]


That's what I was thinking. I don't think Ruby would care about some elaborate party as much as she'd just care about having her friends around. [ It feels like her. To Ange, anyway. ] So it'd be pretty easy to just have a party over here-- the house is big enough anyway.

[ And it's not like the party would turn out.. wild..

Or so she hopes. ]


And while I can certainly make sure to invite her friends, I guess we would need some decorations and food for a party, along with a birthday cake. And those are the parts I might.. um.

[ She pauses. Asking for help is still hard, though it helps that she knows Oscar is pretty kind. He wouldn't be the type to judge her for it.. ]

.. I might need some help with.
entreats: (give me some sort of sign)

Thank you.

[ Granted, it's all for Ruby's sake, so there's no way people around the house wouldn't help out when they all care about her. There's no way Oscar specifically would refuse when he cares so much about Ruby.

But it still feels right to thank him all the same. Ange can get polite when she actually tries to be - or just when she shows she cares. ]


That's all I want for her. Unless this month decides to suddenly go crazy after all and make things hard. [ Can't exactly celebrate a birthday when there's blood dripping down the walls, for example.

.. unless they would've made it a themed party. ]
entreats: (the curtains rise again)

[ Ange stares at him before slowly exhaling. ]

I'd like to believe that.

[ But it's hard to put full stock into it. Not when they don't know the full extent yet of just how hard this place can strike. What if it starts killing off people again this month? There's no way Ruby would be able to enjoy her party if any of them had died. ]

.. but it's hard to trust in it so easily. [ Maybe that's just her own pessimism speaking, though. ]
entreats: (honey help me out of this mess)

[ There's a kind of cynical part of Ange that almost wants to ask if they didn't live together this way too around the same time last year - even if it was in a slightly different configuration, involving people who aren't here right now, and excluding some people like her who didn't live there yet. That it might not be enough to stop anything from happening.

But.. Oscar is right. She should have a little more faith, even if having faith is both difficult and terrifying in its own way. ]


I trust everyone too.

[ It's the first thing she tells him. Because she at least wants that to be clear - since it's true, no matter what. ]

I'm also trying to get more powerful and capable to help protect everyone. I guess we're all trying to do that in our own ways.

I mean, I'm.. not really as used to the concept of teams as you guys are in your world.

[ Though even as she's saying it, she figures that it probably doesn't count as much for Oscar either - he hadn't gone to the same monster hunting school that Ruby and the others did, huh? Ange isn't even too sure if he got to be part of a team like that back home - she's never really heard him talk about it, at least.

But even if it might not exactly be like in the same sort of team structure as Remnant likes to have-- ]


I guess calling it being a team isn't all that bad, if the idea of helping each other out no matter what is the same.
