[ Even as the image can be seen, it seems like there's still a moment of set up, tiny hands fiddling with the Omni like they're trying to get the perfect shot.. But then there are two faces visible. Two faces that are looking decidedly younger than usually - it's Ange and Ruby, looking like they definitely can't be much older than six years old.
And looking very excited. ]
Um, so, so..! We heard that there's some sort of reaaally scary snake monster out there! So.. we thought we'd help out everyone and get rid of it! Because Ruby.. She's a really, reaaally cool huntress! [ Ange may be Will-Smith-esque posing at Ruby for emphasis right as she says that. ]
[Ruby just stares at the camera briefly until she notices Ange's hands pointing her way. She blinks and quickly starts to flex her twiggy arms to the camera.]
Yeah! We're super strong and awesome and we've got tons of weapons! [Ruby gestures to a sack of potato's and a large collection of sticks that they've gathered up.]
That snack is going to be- a- -uh- a, a piece of snack!
[ While Ruby is saying that last part, it seems that Ange has already moved over to grab one of the sticks for a demonstration. As she's running back towards where Ruby and the Omni are, she's waving the stick wildly. ]
We'll get it just like thi--
[ Ange manages to smack the stick right against the device, turning the view sideways before it just cuts out entirely.
Oops. ]

I have a cousin.. um, it's Maria, Maria onee-chan! She always talked about magic, so I told mom about that, and mom told me that magic isn't real..
[ .. That's apparently the problem Ange is having here, since she frowns right after she says that. ]
But it's not like mom would lie to me.

Without warning, and despite Cassandra's best efforts, she couldn't help but look... saddened by that.]
Uhh...
[She's at a loss for words. Until she snaps herself out of it.]
Well, maybe she was just... wrong?

Wrong? [ Ange shakes her head. ] My mom.. she's never wrong, you know.
She's super smart. Mom is the smartest person I know.
no subject
[Uggggh, she can't do this.]
She must be... pretty smart, then.

[ Ange seems to blossom as she says that. She smiles, as if she totally forgot her hesitation and confusion from a moment ago.
This is apparently the benefit of talking with a little kid - they'll forget all of what they were worried about after a few moments, apparently. ]
Mom is reaaally good at playing chess! And guessing the right answers for quizzes on TV! There's nothing my mom doesn't know, and I love her a whooole bunch! [ Look at all this over the top cheer.
Someone is a momma's child. ]
