(link to the old one for my sake - though I'll try to wrap it up for everyone's sanity)
On one hand? Probably shouldn't've said that. On the other, Angus deserves to be informed if he's smart enough to ask the right questions, because there is absolutely no way he won't get caught in the crossfire. Though they don't say any of that out loud - it's just a fun observational note for how they're feeling.
But yay for building friendships, and for Angus having some grounding techniques to keep himself safe. They're still... worried, though. Nothing's gone wrong yet, but it Might, and maybe they're just on edge but-
Speaking of right questions, that's exactly the one they expected, and Lion can't stop their face from falling a bit. "To tell you the truth, Angus-san... I don't know. She doesn't exactly share her thoughts with us very often. I have theories- but those are by their nature subjective, and can't be accurate, can't they?"
Which by the rules of their little back-and-forth, means they lose. He's welcome to bug them for those theories if he really wants, but they have one last request - not even a question, really - before they admit they're out of questions.
"Promise me that if anything goes wrong, you'll try to stay safe. I know I said we try our best, but those tries don't always work - sometimes with disasterous consequences."
They don't want to see someone with so bright a future hurt.
