ANYWAY Ange and HC ended up being so interesting in such a strange way and I was not expecting it at all but I was so delighted by how it happened. Like I said briefly on discord, Ange was trying to juggle so many dangerous people by the time she got to HC that she decided that her best immediate course of action would be to just pretend to be scared of him so that he wouldn't approach her. She thought he was dangerous and perceptive, and quite frankly she just did not have time for that.

But then!! The CYOA forced them to work together, and she saw some more sides to him. What surprised her was how... well, sentimental he was about protecting them and keeping them all safe. The kindness was something she hadn't expected from him, and now I have to admit that terribly, that was when she decided that it would be worth her time to build on what that gave her and try to get him on her side. She likes to think she did a decent job of getting him to count her as one of his adoptees (thanks character development)!

That said, what really caught her interest was how he clearly did not mind her reveal at all. Rather, even beyond that, he seemed to like her just fine as the person she is, and to her, that was pretty curious. She's not used to people liking her actual self, since she never really shows that actual self to people, so in truth, it made her even more curious about the sort of person he is.

So ultimately, her view on him is this: she does think that her approach was correct because she does think he's both competent and dangerous, so she doesn't regret not trying to get to know him better, but she does think it would have been interesting to get to know him better and meant that sincerely. She thinks that they probably would've been able to come to some sort of decent understanding, and honestly? Ange prefers the company of competent people, so if she had to make a list of tolerable people, he would be on it.
