"Twenty-one?" Battler is rocked back a little by that. He's supposed to be the elder brother and here she is already three years older than he is! That's weird to think about. He scratches at the back of his head as he tries to wrap his head around that particular bit of math and how it's all going to work out.

"...that is definitely not allowed. No matter how many years older you are, I am still your older brother and that's final!" His face splits into a grin. He's half-teasing, but there's certainly an element of truth to it. He's dead on Rokkenjima. Will be dead on Rokkenjima. So in a way, Ange's story is the one that will go on - no matter what. He's trapped in amber. Although maybe not as long as he's here, right? Not something he wants to really discuss, at the end of the day.

"So I'm going to keep being your doting bigger brother and make sure you get everything you need! No arguing!"
