mid-June? idfk

[dirtdevil]

so i remembered something recently.
something about you being unable to get hard?

[ ah, if only laughing was a thing he did... ]

[usurpers]

[ THIS DID NOT COME AT THE RIGHT TIME ]

what do you mean
?

[dirtdevil]

i mean your titan. obviously.

[ obviously. what else would he be talking about. ]

[usurpers]

[ ok

that’s been ✔️✔️ read and he was probably typing something right there but only sends it like. a while after. it is night. ]

that’s what i meant

[ obviously ]

what happened?
i know i can actually
crystallize
but i can never do it here

[dirtdevil]

i remembered running you through a bunch of tests that culminated in you not being able to harden or whatever. so you figured out how to do it?

[usurpers]

i have memories of hardening and i’ve tried a lot here. it just hasn’t worked yet.
but then again I don’t know what I’m trying to go for beyond hardening body parts/the whole thing.
was it with hange?

[dirtdevil]

that the crazy one with the glasses? if so, yes. there were some other kids there, too.

[ and he doesn't know any of their names. whoops. ]

[usurpers]

do you remember them? or anyone else that was there.

[dirtdevil]

just that they were there for the whole spoon thing, and the part about being crazy.
there were two girls, too. a tiny blonde one and one in a scarf. that mean anything to you?

[usurpers]

i remember them. mikasa’s the one in the scarf, historia’s the blond. i don’t know much about the latter but mikasa grew up with me.

she has your last name.

[dirtdevil]

[ ....uhhhh. there's a slight delay on this one. ]

are we related?

[usurpers]

If your last name now was your last name back then, I guess you are. I wouldn’t know what the relation is though, at least not yet.

You both never seemed to know each other or got too close, so . . . Maybe something distant?

[dirtdevil]

i see.

[ is he actually kind of disappointed? how stupid. she didn't even look like him. ]

anyway, the rest of it was a bunch of talking about shit i don't really know anything about. titans in the walls, some family and a secret, does any of that mean anything to you?

[usurpers]

i know bits and pieces about the royal family. especially from my dad.
titans in the walls, though?

[dirtdevil]

that's what they said. i think it's fair to assume that's bad news.

[usurpers]

some of the titan shifters can crystallize, we know that. and i know the royal family was keeping information about the outside world from everyone. the last king of the walls was actually a woman, and she was a titan shifter. it makes sense if they made those walls to keep everyone in.

except i have her titan now.

[dirtdevil]

[ ...wait, what?? ]

this shit is confusing. maybe once i remember more it won't sound like gibberish.
