[The feed begins without warning, picturing a young blonde boy sitting at his console. He’s slowly—oh so slowly, like the world’s most meticulous woodpecker—typing at the keyboard. One letter at a time. Tap. Tap. Tap. His gaze keeps switching from his hands to his screen, squinting, cocking his eyebrow, leaning in or out to get a better look, with an expression of concentration so intense it’s a wonder he hasn’t set fire to anything yet.]

[It’s obvious he’s never seen a computer, or anything remotely like it, in his life.]

[In the background, another boy is pacing around. Despite looking far more ragged than Armin, he seems to have limitless energy. He’s moving furniture, asking if Armin’s gotten the “lightsbox” working yet, switching light switches on and off, and eventually settling for carrying a lamp around.]

[They're both wearing a peculiar sort of uniform with a winged emblem on the shoulder and back, and for some reason, a very complex harness of belts.]

[Armin keeps on hunting and pecking as he was until he glances up to the monitor again, and notices something different.]


Recording…?

[He looks up out of the corner of his eye as he tries to remember what he was explained that implies. Surprise crosses his face as it returns to him.]

Ah, yes, recording-- Eren! I think I've gotten it to start showing us to everyone else!

[His friend shouts from the background]

Ask who's there! Anyone we know? Who's there?!

I suppose that's as good of a question as any... Is there anyone out there that we would know?

My name is Armin Arlert, of the 104th Trainee's Squad, presently in the Scouting Legion-- although I doubt that holds much weight here. Anyone from our "world" would be familiar with those terms though, so please, if you are, respond. And anyone else for that matter, who isn't a Kedan; what is Keeliai, exactly? Why are we brought here? What is beyond these walls? What could this city possibly be a stronghold against?


[He looks concerned, and leans back in his chair a little. There had to be some sort of threat, if they bothered with security... And he tended to think of such things in bad-as-possible terms.]

[Eren seems very grimly determined to ruin his eyesight as he tries to figure out how electricity works, switching his lamp on and off.]


...This place can't be any good if Mikasa isn't here too. [He mutters bitterly.]

[Armin sighs, because he feels the same way. He stares off blankly.]

We'll find her. It's only a matter of time.

ooc: [Joint post between Armin Arlert and Eren Yaeger. Specify who you want, or not, or both! Expect threadjacking, and lots of it.]

That's just not true at all. I mean, I'm not wearing my full uniform right now, but we definitely have more maneuverability than you do.

I handle well with sword and I'm th'best at bow and arrow. Y'can't judge someone just by what they dress like. Especially when y'don't know what it's like where I come from.

Are you in the military? That's an awful military uniform, if you are. Don't you trip over the fabric?
myownhand: (➛ i'll not let you kill my mother)

[personal profile] myownhand 2013-09-06 09:00 am (UTC)(link)
I don't trip over th'fabric. I've climbed cliffs in this dress. And my father's trained me for military combat, just in case another war breaks out.

[LETS GO EREN. LETS DO THIS B[]
eigensinnig: like republicans (ghosts only attack evil people)

[personal profile] eigensinnig 2013-09-06 09:01 am (UTC)(link)
Prove it. [ no one fights in a dress how the fuck do you even do that it's way too much fabric man ]
myownhand: (➛ FINE. FUCK YOU WISPS)

[personal profile] myownhand 2013-09-06 09:03 am (UTC)(link)
Fine. We can meet somewhere and I can show you just how capable I am. [BBBTT]
eigensinnig: all while shouting SCATTER (grabs a 40 and smashes it)

[personal profile] eigensinnig 2013-09-06 09:08 am (UTC)(link)
Alright! Name the place, then! I'll be there!

She was going to show how dresses don't lessen her mobility.
