[ 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.

you're fine! <3
[ Ange doesn't sound too bothered as she says it. Her tone is mostly the same as it was in the original message - a little fatigued, but mostly not really emotional in any sort of way. ]
But I decided to just embrace it at this point. Whatever, right? Or does it mean something special to you?

Not particularly. I was simply not aware of that. Witches were merely legends where I was from, an explanation for other forces people did not understand. There were those who...tried to emulate those stories, though...
[Echo sounds just a tad uncomfortable as she says that part. Oh, Ada, the things she learned about you...]
But I am not surprised to hear they exist in other worlds.

That's what I also thought my world was like for the longest time. [ No matter how casual Ange talks about witches and all sorts of related stuff, it's just that she has gotten a real long time in this place to get used to it.. ]
But it turns out that they were real all along. They just hid themselves away from where people could see them. I'm not necessarily saying your world is like that too, but.. well, the possibility exists, right? Maybe people just convinced themselves they aren't real.
no subject
I...suppose so...
[Even though she finally gets this out, it's pretty clear she's rather confused by considering the possibilities.]
Things many considered "magic" in that world are explained by the Abyss and its effects, however. The Chains in particular have a variety of abilities. And the guardians, the Baskervilles, are similarly hidden away from as many people as possible. I have always assumed that to be the explanation.
