Ugh... that one. So, on New Years, I made a terrible mistake. And... afterwards, the next person I touched? I could read their thoughts. All of them about me.
And right afterwards I became insanely paranoid and fled them. It happened every time I touched omeone and, well... you know how affectionate I am. On top of that, I was still recovering from my fourth death, so I was sleepwalking to ghostly nightmares on that boat.
[ Usually Ange would make some dry remark here about it not really being that funny.
But.. considering everything? She's honestly just glad that she was able to make Vira-Lorr laugh, even if it's just for a few moments. So Ange's face isn't her usual pokerface expression. Instead she's smiling a little as she speaks up. ]

But that why she figures it's easier to say the more deadpan thing about it, even if it's kind of morbid: ]
In the end we all fell off anyway.
