[ There's a moment of semi-awkward silence.

Not even because of him saying that he almost hurt her. That would have been relatively easy to brush off, especially with how little Ange cares about her personal safety. Even if he had burned her like she felt he would for a moment, it would have sucked more since it would have made Scott look like a guilty sad puppy like this than for how much it would have hurt Ange.

But the statement that follows is a little harder. Because of course she's going to brush it off the way she always does, but she does feel a little guiltier for doing it in front of Scott of all people.

He's one of her closer friends, after all. ]

I'm fine.

[ She shrugs a little, but it doesn't seem fully emotionless the way Ange sometimes comes across. Some of that awkwardness she feels like answering is definitely rearing its head just a little bit. She's definitely not as fine as she's pretending to be, but she can't quite own up to it, no matter how guilty she feels for this relative lie in front of him. ]

I mean, everything went back to normal, right? We just have to continue like we always do. Nothing else will change anything.
