“Sorry, sorry I can’t help it.” Marco chuckled reaching up with a hand to scratch at the back of his head, it was just so nice seeing Midnight again, he always enjoyed the others company and he never knew how long they’d have to be around one another so it was always exciting to see them.
But he tried to stop smiling….but was obviously struggling, eventually he just smiled again “ Sorry it’s just so hard!” he laughed “ How can I not smile when it’s you Midnight?”
She was a peculiar thing, wasn’t she? Midnight could hear how stunned he was in his tone, which only led her to nod. “Commander of the Satyrians, a race as old as the earth itself…we’ve been around for centuries–and our ancestors even longer. We’ve been dubbed the protectors of earth from unnatural threats, or ones that humans cannot fathom. We tend to be very…isolated from them for safety reasons.”
She had walked into the room herself, straightening the bearskin on the bed before lifting it up, and placing it on Falco’s shoulders. It was heavy, but warm– it cut through the chill of the room like butter.
She turned to face him again, her tail wagging a little as she looked down at him, giving him a smaller smile than before. “If you need, there’s a water spring closer to the inside of the base; it’s perfectly safe drinking water. Oh, and if anyone gives you trouble– just tell them Noktomezo gave you permission to stay; it’s my real name.”
Satyrians? He’s never even heard of them before but she claims that her people were as old as the earth itself….then why has he never heard of them in their history books? He would have assumed Marley would have a special interest in a race like the Satyrians…maybe even attempt to join forces…though if they refused…yeah maybe it was best not to mention them when he got home “ Unnatural threats?” he muttered a bit, did titans count as unnatural threats ? They seemed so natural now “ Uh what kind of unnatural threats do you fight against?” he asked curiously as he watched her walk into the room to grab the bearskin at the bed and watched silently as she’d approach him.
When she draped the bearskin over his shoulders he couldn’t help but hunch a little from the weight suddenly on his body, though he wasn’t complaining it was so warm. His hands grabbing at the bearskin to hold it in place as he glanced up and listened to her speak again “ Ah, okay thank you I’ll be sure to remember that Ma’am.” he smiles a little, he wasn’t sure how the others at her base would react to him but he hoped that they wouldn’t be to upset…
Noktomezo….he’d have to remember the name, nodding to her “ Okay, thank you again for letting me stay the night.” he’d have to find Colt tomorrow so they could go home…he just hoped Colt would be okay “ Ah, will you be leaving than Ms.Mcowln? “
Raph also coughed as they managed to scramble inside, the kid skidding right over to the old lichen covered char to gracefully take a seat. He breathed in hastily, using the bottom of his Spiderman-themed black shirt to wipe his own brow. No doubt that his black sweatpants were all ripped up from all the times the kid tripped. He…looked so out of place.
“Hey–!” The boy wheezed out, blue eyes looking up at the blonde. “I was doing perfectly fine running for my life! I probably could have kept going too if you didn’t knock the wind out of me! Just what the hell were those things….phhheww, sorry, need a minute…”
He stood up, leaning to check on Reiner’s bleeding side from afar. “…What’s ODM gear? And what walls? Haven’t seen walls for miles! I have been roughing it in my PJ’s this whole time, and you tell me I could’ve hid behind some walls?”
Reiner frowned looking the boy over as he wiped his brow looking over his strange clothe….what the hell was he wearing and what the hell was a Spiderman? He’s never seen clothe like that before “ Huh? What do you mean before I came along and knocked the wind out of you I saved your life you can’t outrun titans they don’t get tired they would have followed you until you collapsed from exhaustion.” he responded back his brows furrowing as the boy stood to check on his wounds. He should be worried about himself…
….just where the hell has this kid been his whole life? Does he live under a damn rock? How the hell doesn’t he know about the Walls, ODM gear or the Titans?
Reiner thought to himself before limping over to the window to peek and see where the titans were in the abandoned town “ How the hell have you survived this long with so little knowledge….” clearly they weren’t from around here that much was obvious, so where did they come from…..if he wasn’t an Eldian of Paradis then he didn’t have to worry about him seeing his body heal.
Steam began to emanate from the blonds wounds as he allowed his body to heal itself slowly before speaking again “ Omni-Directional Mobility Gear, or ODM for short, is a type of equipment developed that allows great mobility when facing titans, it’s what I used to get us away from those titans…..only problem is I’m running low on gas….” which meant he’d have to resort to shifting if he ran out.
“ As for the walls, I’m a little surprised you haven’t seen them they’re 50 meters tall. Anyways there’s three of them Maria, Rose and Sina they’re what keeps everyone safe from the titans that roam around on the outside of the walls.” he tried explaining, what was he a damn history teacher? This kid should have known this by now “ Yu probably haven’t seen the wall because you’re well because we’re rather face from them but I assure you they exist.” and quite possible the only thing that would keep them safe from these titans….that or if they managed to find a tree tall enough they could take shelter there….these houses won’t keep them hidden for long.
"You could have died." + [introduction] -> for our muses to have just survived a life-threatening event together -- and now that they've survived it they can actually learn each other's names { raph to reiner >:) }
Reiner coughed a little gripping at his bloodied side as the two hid inside one of the old abandoned buildings, he wasn’t sure who the hell this kid was but why were they outside the walls on their own? Not to mention they didn’t have any ODM gear on them and were nearly surrounded by 15 and 5 meter titans….but the only thing they could say was how HE could have died??
“ What the hell do you mean I could have died what about you?! You’re the one wandering around outside the walls during broad daylight with no ODM gear!! I anyone could have died it would be you! Honestly what would have you even done if I hadn’t come over in time?!”
“ I’LL NEVER TALK! YOU WON’T GET ANYTHING OUTTA ME SO YOU CAN TELL THE MPS THAT I WON’T TALK- wait why am I being questioned again?”
Connie asked confused with a confused look on his face just….lost and confused….why…why was he getting interrogated did he do something to piss them off?
