[ theeere we go. once Armin's securely attached to him, off he goes, at as quick a pace as he can muster with a teenager on his back. time to get the hell outta here. ]

Four months. And since you asked earlier, I should tell you I'm the only other one here from home. No one else has been recovered yet.

[ "yet" may be wishful thinking, but he wants to believe more will come in time. ]

[That revelation is so surprising that Armin overbalances almost right away and has to pinwheel his arms for a second to lean forward and drape over Levi's neck again properly.

How is that possible? Levi makes perfect sense, of course. But Armin had been surrounded on every side by people far more powerful and talented. Who would have wasted the effort to drag out his consciousness all of this way instead of theirs?

He's so stunned he can't even think of a proper response. Or another question. He just reels silently for a long moment.]

I met someone who's been here for a year.

Yeah, that's about the worst I've heard, too. It'll take you awhile to get used to this place. I'm still not used to it in some ways.

[ like the whole not having to worry about dying all the time thing, what's up with that? also insane technology and weird food, but mostly not dying. ]

You got the stupid introduction, right?

[goodtome]

[It's a conversation that's doomed to repeat itself many times after this, but for now it's a new thought. Not a very good one, though. Armin takes it in stride, because honestly, they've all had worse.

This is viscerally upsetting, but even that has a familiar, blunt edge to it now. For a moment he wonders when he became accustomed to that odd numbness, but that sends a chill up his spine. He doesn't dwell on it.]

Yes, sir.

[dirtdevil]

You must have a new job, then.

[ and thus a new boss. an additional boss? whatever. he has a feeling the 'yes sir's will continue regardless of Armin's new assignment. ]
