[ There's only a voice feed without video to go along with it - but even without her face being visible, the edge of fatigue to Ange's voice is pretty obvious. Aside from that, her voice is pretty much the usual same monotone-- just with that little extra to it. ]

In case anyone came to the apothecary often-- Claude obviously isn't here anymore to run it. I have all of his notes, so I figure I might as well run it. I mean, at this point I'm apparently here until the heat death of the universe while I have to watch everyone I care about disappear, so might as well, right.

[ Sorry, the apothecary now apparently comes with a Hot Topic attitude. At least it explains where the fatigue in the girl's voice might be coming from. ]

So stop by while I undergo my own special kind of torture in this place, I guess. There's a lot to go through and figure out, so if you had some sort of special deal with Claude, make sure to let me know. Or I might find it somewhere in his notes in three months or so, so letting me know is likely faster.

[ It sounds like she might be looking at all of it right now, in fact. There's the sound of slight paper rustling in the background. ]

Or let me know if you can help with this. I haven't exactly done any of this apothecary business stuff before. I mean, Claude clearly didn't even consider the optics of leaving a place like this to a witch. That's just stereotyping, you know? So rude.

[oh, Ange.]

Me and Claude were friends. He helped me a lot. So... I'd definitely be okay with helping you with the business. I see Caitlyn already got to you, but I wanted to back her up on it.

[entreats]

[ It's not really a surprise to see these two coming as a set, but.. it's not really a bad thing either in this case. Ange may not know either of them intensely, but Caitlyn helped her before, and Vi seems alright enough. Especially compared to some other people she's known here. ]

Are you any good with doing the whole social aspect of it? If Claude is making me talk to people after disappearing, I might have to go to wherever he ended up so I can kick him.

[grappler]

[she laughs a little bit.]

Oh yeah. My favorite part of Lupin is being at the bar and talking to people, so this should be no big deal. You and Cait are probably gonna have to teach me about this shit, though.

[she doesn't know much about... apothecary things.]

[entreats]

Well, I'm still learning. [ It's not like Ange really has spent all that much time working in her life.. Ever.. And even though she's a witch, being a witch doesn't really work in this kind of way where she comes from. ]

But Claude left behind extensive documentation. Maybe even a little bit too extensive. And I've made one or two things before using his recipes, so I'm pretty sure I can pick doing that up. [ A slight pause, some faint hesitation, but then Ange just decides to be honest with Vi.

Got to be honest while doing business together, right. ]

I just don't want to deal with some of the weirdos we're stuck here with, or with the way the townspeople keep flip flopping on how they feel about us. [ Those are the parts she's no good with!! ]

[grappler]

That's fine. I had to learn how to run a bar after Dazai and the others from his world left, too.

[she didn't know the first thing about it, but had wanted to keep it going. just in case Dazai were to come back, he'd have his own little piece of quiet in this damn city.

and she's kind of glad she has been keeping it up. she has a few regulars now, and hanging out with them kind of makes it worth it.]

Eh, I'm good at the weirdos. I'll just kick their ass if they get too annoying.

[that's not how that's supposed to work!!]

[entreats]

[ Most people would tell Vi to definitely not do that sort of thing, considering it's pretty much a no-no when it comes to customer service.

But considering how bad Ange is at that thing as well, she just says: ]

Cool.

[ Yeah, no objections here, apparently. ]

Has that worked out for the bar so far? The locals here can get pretty angry.

[grappler]

[Vi and Ange are great at customer service, what do you mean--]

Yep. It's no big deal -- when you Chosen all have weird abilities and stuff, tossing out normies from the bar becomes easy as hell.

[do they even have abilities too? oh well.]

[entreats]

.. Do you have weird abilities?

[ Look, what Vi is saying here practically begs the question! ]
