[ Ange's too lame to actually record a custom voicemail message, but still, feel free to leave a message after the standard message's beep or just normally call her.

But back home I only just graduated high school. I'm already eighteen, after all.
[ Or.. well, probably slightly older now, but keeping track of it in Asgard and Haven is just a pain. ]
no subject
[CASUALLY SAID... and somewhere across frozen multiverses, merem doesn't sneeze but maybe the rat king just twitched his nose.]
See, we should be around the same age. There's no way I look old!
[complaining is what old people do, though...]
no subject
Merem... at prom night.. and Ciel acting at the concerned mom, and...
She's not even going to try thinking of this. It's going to break her brain. Let's shove it into a dark "let's never mention this ever again" corner. ]
It's not just about looking old though, you know. I still have plenty of youthful zeal, it's why I don't seem like an old lady. [ youthful zeal ange pls... ]
no subject
sigh
look each to their own in trying to catch breaks de-stressing ok. and it's perfectly ok if this is done at the expense of unpleasant and questionable co-workers you may or may not still actually genuinely care about...]
You look younger than you really are to me, physically. I don't about zeal, though...
[ange you're more like charles
but charles can claim it because he is pretty zealous about his anger issues and grudges
y tu??]
no subject
Do I really look that much like a kid? [ She's not sure if it bothers her or not - it's just a strange feeling to be called that way now. It's never really been anything she thought about. After a brief frown though, she reaches up, and with a fairly simple movement she grabs her hair decorations and pulls them right out of her hair, making her pigtails fall down at the sides of her head to mix in with the rest of her hair so it all just hangs down. ] .. There, I don't look that young anymore now, right? Or it should help, at least.
i don't know* tmw you accidentally a whole verb
You look a few years younger, aha. It's a personal opinion, but I'd place you around... 16, I think?
[...
woah, ange without her twintails! ciel actually will take a brief moment to stare and appreciate it, because ange rarely goes anywhere without those, doesn't she?]
...
Hehe, right. All you need now is a headband, and you'll truly have nailed the picture of a lofty and dignified oujo-sama!
[also
ciel swears this has nothing to do with akiha]
no subject
I.. I don't want to look like something like that to begin with. [ Huff!! If it isn't obvious, Ange's always been sort of a rebel, so she's never really been the dignified rich people's daughter that her aunt who raised her wished she'd be.. besides, being called that would only remind her of Amakusa with his constant "oujo" this, "oujo" that. ] I'd rather just look sixteen then. I'll leave the whole ojou-sama thing to someone else.
no subject
it's not like arc's even around enough to be noticeable and no one will ever be as crazy as kohaku, okay.
ciel is not good for rebounds anyway]It's certainly a lot of responsibility, especially if you add unfortunate family circumstances ["and completely irresponsible onii-chans", but she's not that callous so THIS WILL BE LEFT UNSPOKEN] to top it off. Besides, I imagine very few know here, and even less care, right? That should suit you well, Ange-san?
no subject
.. Yeah, I don't exactly plan on telling everyone. Not that I'm going to go out of my way to hide it [ or else she wouldn't have brought it up to Ciel now despite trusting her a lot ] so if people ask, then they can know, but..
[ She shrugs, thinking of all the sheer trouble money brought her back home. It isn't good for anything, so why bring it up? ]
I guess I'm fine with just being "Ange" for once. That people can meet me as myself instead of immediately knowing about my status or my family or whatever. That's not weird, is it? [ Ciel-sensei's advice column.. ]
no subject
not even Beatoriche can top that srry2say]
It sounds far too reasonable, if I must answer. People will get to know Ange Ushiromiya, deadpan extraordinaire, instead of a seemingly lofty and untouchable figure surrounded by meaningless riches, right? That must be quite liberating, actually, so it's definitely a good feeling to have!
[this round is met with APPROVAL
we good 8|b!]
no subject
I'm glad to have your approval. [ And although it's a slight joke - as if she would need Ciel's approval for that to begin with - there's some genuine part about it as well. Ciel definitely seems to have a more adult kind of attitude than she does, so she can't help but almost look up a little to her in that sense.. ]
Besides, the whole "rich girl" type just doesn't suit me. It's as if someone would try to force the bum stereotype on someone like you. Completely unnatural, right?
no subject
[ciel onee-san isn't a bully]
Ah...
[:V]
That sounds really strange. Maybe in an alternate universe, Ange-san?
[which we all thank God isn't one we know...???]
no subject
Don't put it that way, you'll jinx it. Before you know it they'll bring in weird versions of ourselves from other worlds into this place. Although I'm pretty sure some version of you that's like that existing would be enough to break any world.
no subject
[this is... genre savvy, right...]
no subject
You're sure? The place I was stuck in before really seemed to like mixing up horrific stuff along with really light-hearted things. It worked well enough to distract most people from the horrific stuff, as sad as it is to have to say that. [ She still doesn't know if there were just that many idiots in Asgard or just a lot of naive people. ]
no subject
[a beat.]
But it's never been like this with Haven, at least not how I remember things. Do you recall them differently?
[they really are super qualified...]
no subject
Maybe they're just trying harder to keep us from realising what day it is. In Asgard we didn't have calenders either, but at least those themed kind of things told us what time of the year it was supposed to be. Although it was almost like everything seemed to pass twice as fast there.
no subject
Twice as fast? Can you elaborate on that? [it does sound strange ok... what do you mean 2:1 day ratios are a thing too??]
no subject
I don't know.. at this point I honestly don't even think they're always really logical. Maybe they just thought it was hilarious. [ Wouldn't put it past Kite and the gang.. ] But compared to Asgard, this place.. well, it feels like the seasons are passing in a normal way. It doesn't feel like they're much shorter than back home. But in Asgard it was like only a month or maybe a little over that passed before the next season was already there. Like the planet was spinning faster or something.
no subject
--Oh, like that! So a year was like, six months long, instead of twelve? You could feel the seasonal differences, too? [chinhands!] That is unusual. The days passed by normally in Mayfield... Hm, maybe that's just one of Asgard's quirks? It's actually different from the other places that kidnap people, after all.
