[Truly, honestly, he's been meaning to talk to Ange.

He was just... not doing well after everything with Ryoji, unable to really sleep or eat all that much because of those memories replaying in his mind over and over again. Maybe he would've been able to recover on his own after a couple of weeks, but with Kotone's revival, that sort of sped up his progress. Not that he's doing amazing or great still, honestly, Scott feels so far from normal that he's not sure when he'll be like his regular self again, but at the very least, he wants to talk to Ange.

See how she's doing.

It's easier to have this focus without guilt completely consuming him, now lowered to something that's sort of manageable (although he still doesn't know how to talk to Ryoji). So, whenever Ange is walking out of her room or maybe coming back from an outing, Scott will be sitting on the couch, clearly waiting for someone-- for her. He doesn't know if he can really force a smile right now, especially after everything they've been through, but Scott finally looks at her with some life once more.]


Hey Ange, do you... um, got a minute?

[A part of him feels stressed as well, that ball of anxiety returning as he looks over at his friend. He remembers their encounter, when he was someone-- something else, how close he was to hurting her, and it just... really sucks. More than that, but he doesn't know how else to really describe it. Part of him doesn't want to talk about it at all, hell, Ange probably doesn't, but it needs to be addressed at some point right? He owes her an explanation at least?

...He really just wants to express his gratitude for Ange being there for him. Not just stopping him, but afterward too.]
