retrospec | (no subject)

Status report from the field teams? Same for the rescue teams. We have people out in both locations and from where I'm sitting you guys are moving pretty fast.

The layer itself isn't at a risk of collapsing just yet, but I don't really want to take a bunch of chances.

Also my office has since been taken over by Whistler's Mother and I can't get her to leave, so it looks like I'm temporarily moving. Again. Anybody else having this problem?

Report to me with anything you need. The map on my system's filling out as much as it can, but I feel like I'm missing pieces.

Keep each other posted. Oh, and heads up? Looks like tech had one more batch of testers they were going to bring in, so...if you see anybody new? Try and get them up to speed.

Ahaha, that's the spirit!

And I feel you. I've been here a couple months longer, and I learn new things every day, it feels like. Gotta take our senpai cred where we can!

I'll do my best to guide the next generation to greatness! Or whatever

But if it's really the last batch, I guess all of this business must be getting close to an end, too

Yeah. Not really sure how I feel about all that. On one hand, it'll be nice to not constantly be worrying about people's lives being in danger. On the other... kind of hard not to be worried about what that might mean, given what we're dealing with.

Yeah... I mean, it's shaping up to be a real life final boss situation

And the final boss is usually the one trying to destroy the world, soo...

[She makes light of it, but she's got a number of concerns on the matter.]

Really sounds like that's the case here, too.

But, hey. Think about it this way... if Vanderwheele's our final boss, then he's got a whole lot of protagonists coming his way soon.

Protagonists are usually pretty overpowered by themselves

A whole army of 'em will probably give us a good shot, right?

That's the hope, at least!

Maybe I should take sparring and stuff like that more seriously to get ready...

Well, if you ever need a partner, let me know! The more I can sharpen up my own skills, the better.

Definitely!

Do you know any good spots? I still need to look around for someplace open enough to move around in

It's still chilly enough that no one's really headed out toward the beach... we could try to find a clearing out in the woods, too

The beach is probably good! I practiced flying in the woods a bit, but I still don't really know the layout.

I know at least some of it pretty well by now. I've been doing some training with Eren there.

But all right, sounds like a plan. Let me know when you want to meet up! I'm usually in class until around 2, then I just wind up combing the city to see who needs help since I'm not heading down to Magatus.

I'll probably head back in next time they do a bus, buuuuuut... How about tomorrow at 3?

I don't really trust myself on missions like that just yet. Maybe next month, once I have some more training under my belt.

Sounds like a plan!

I'm just going to be evacuating more people. No more mountains for me, thanks!

Although I feel like I cheated, I totally just remember how to move when I fight now, plus turning into a fairy made it so my speed matches with my reflexes.

Can't blame you. Went up once, never again.

Don't feel bad, that's how I started off, too. I just had something else pop up that requires a lot more practice to keep a handle on, that's all.

[You know. Horrible demon mode.]

Huh? Like a new power?

Yeah.

[And... that's all he has to say about that. Hm.]

[...

......]

That's it?

It's

Not really something I'm comfortable with yet

Sorry

[Ah.]

Got it, okay!

If you need someone to talk to about it, you can text me whenever

I'll keep it in mind, thanks

Sorry, it's just a lot. Still wrapping my head around it. I think I'll feel better once I've got a better hang of it, just... more training

I hope you can get it figured out

Good luck with training! lmk if there's anything I can help with
