[The corner of Angel's mouth twitched downward. She had expected a slight connection, in as the woman made a hurtful mistake with the aliens and found herself trying to recover from that. But she doubted a mistake like that would lead to someone calling themselves a bad person. It seemed like the assumed connection went far deeper than Angel would have expected.]
[She wasn't sure how to feel about that.]
[But the woman didn't want sentimentality, which meant the siren wasn't so sure how much she'd appreciate an attempt to relate. Much as Angel thought that moving past sins was possible (had to be possible, if she were ever to be anything worthwhile), she opted to keep her mouth closed.]
Perhaps. Allow me, then, to express my apologies for being so presumptuous. [She spoke soft and slow, and kept her gaze averted from the screen.]
