[ Those last brackets are exactly Ange's thoughts.
But still-- ]
I know. I'm really trying. I don't want to think anything bad of him because he's from your world. [ And the last thing Ange would ever want to do is drive any sort of wedge there, making Ruby choose between her or the people from her world. ] But it's so weird. And I really don't want this to escalate before we know what's going on.
No matter how I think about it though, I can't figure out a reason for him to be looking at me like that.
Is that something I should be worried about this month?
[ Despite actually having seen Salem, it's like the reference is going ten miles over Ange's head here. Maybe since she's already worried - it makes her prone to adding onto said worries. ]
Well, if I was corrupted, you would be the first to know.
[ It's something Ange likes about how close they are. She's pretty sure that they would be able to tell so quickly, considering how much time they spend together. ]
But as far as I know the last time I looked into a mirror, I'm still looking the same as ever. I don't think anyone about me changed the past few weeks.
So it's definitely got to be something on his end.
[ That's Ange's attempt at lightening this up a little, especially now she's gotten out of staring range and is slowly calming down a little bit. She can actually breathe again now.
After all, she sure can tease Ruby a little with implying that all of them are freaking weird.
Or, well, that's what usually would be following that statement, if Ange had just a tad more Umineko witch energy about her. It's close enough though. ]
And yet, like a true Ushiromiya, she didn't. Which means that the selfie hits her totally out of left field, making Ange's jaw drop as she's staring at her Omni. ]
How do you even still have those???
[ ANGE THOUGHT THOSE WERE DESTROYED ALONGSIDE THE DREAM... PLEASE.. LET HER REST... ]
We could have better photos taken!! Ones that aren't so embarrassing!!
[ Maybe Ange doesn't realise what those words might be about to put her through. B-But she's sure that they can find some way to get more photos of them that doesn't involve a dreaded photobooth. ]

I think it's kind of getting to the point though... Willow's already mentioned he's been acting off. And now this stuff with you.
...You haven't like sudden gone super pale and have veins growing out of you do, do you?
It's a long shot but that could have something to do with it.

It just kind of resembles someone he used to be with back in my world. I don't see him going back to someone like that.
But you never know.

And we both know that nothing ever gets past me.
[Emotionally at least. Ruby was pretty wise to that. She was easily distracted though.]
I didn't notice anything either... But maybe send me a picture. Just so I can double check and be sure.
Why does Oz just have to continue to be so freaking weird?

I think you might have to provide some evidence for that in a court of law.

DON'T THINK I CAN'T MAKE EVIDENCE OF THAT!

Okay. Here goes-
[And Ruby sends Ange a picture of an awkward looking selfie. Of Ruby looking at the photos they had taken back in the dream. In the photobooth.
Where Ruby was mercilessly tormenting Ange.]

I wouldn't trade them for the world.
...But if you want to take new photos I'd like that too.
We could make some more memories, you know?

She's too weak. Too sappy for Ruby of all people. ]
Hopefully this time a bit less forcefully.
