Day 2 | Sunset | @everyone

[thebomb]

Good evening, everyone.

My name is Armin Arlert. Hello again, if we've already met. If not, I'm glad to meet you now.

I'll try to keep this as brief as I can.

Nao and I are working together to compile a secondary demon compendium based on our individual experiences. We'll need everyone's help to get a good idea of what we're working with. It seems that much of the information given to us by our COMPs is, indeed, accurate, but it's wise to rely on what we can observe ourselvess before anything else.

That being said, please respond to this message with the following information:

1. The type of demon you're describing
2. Have you contracted with it? If so, what were its terms?
3. Any observed skills
4. Other relevant anecdotes and observations

I'll work on compiling all of the information given into an ongoing report, which I'll post at the bulletin board Dimitri's set up at the church.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Armin

[He is very confused. There is no way to navigate this conversation without sounding like an idiot.]

I'm willing to listen if you'd like to explain.

[Help! He's not used to being the stupid one!]

[nterwebz]

OK OK OK OK

b4 u arrived here
had u ever seen nething like your COMP?

[ She's pretty sure she knows the answer, but... ]

[Armin hasn't gone into all that much detail about what level of technology he's used to - hasn't given all that much detail about anything, and that's intentional. He doesn't trust Nao - not really - and he doesn't trust anyone else either, but...something has to give somewhere. He needs people like her - people that do understand things like his COMP - on his side. Whatever he's about to send will be out there for anyone to see. There's some definite hesitation between messages.]

I hadn't. The closest thing I could equate it to is some combination of a photograph and a telephone. [And he's never even used a telephone.]

Someone was kind enough to show me how to use the device as soon as we awoke from the train. I'm grateful for anything else I might learn.

if u really wanna learn id be happy to teach u things

theres a lot i can show u
and explain too!!

[ She's so excited for him and this sort of thing? She doesn't mind sharing it. It's common iformation where she comes from. Er, well, most of it. The technical parts are out there, but it's not like everyone's a technological genius capable of explaining all the deets. ]

cw: genocide

['There's so much amazing stuff ahead,' complete with a cheery face. Armin feels grief disguised as rotten bitterness. The world can't bounce back from what Eren's done. Society can't advance. One small island's worth of people can't rebuild an entire planet. There's nothing ahead. Only this.]

I am interested, yes. Especially if you think that sort of information will be useful here. Where have you been staying, Nao? Perhaps we can meet and talk a bit more tomorrow.

[nterwebz]

[thebomb]

Early morning, if you don't mind. We'll assess the situation outside as usual and then meet so long as something else doesn't take priority.

[nterwebz]
