Who: All y'all
When: Day 1 – Morning
Where: Everywhere
What: School is in

[Somewhere, a bell begins to ring. You may know the type—obnoxious and loud, signalling the start of a brand new day of lectures and learning. Rise and shine, lovelies; wakey wakey eggs and bakey! And with that, just as the toll falls silent, you hear the sound you may have been waiting for: the click of a lock.

You're free to explore.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[so funny story, Armin also naturally gravitated towards the library

which means there is now a very familiar face staring at you from the other end of the shelf. whoops.]

[ He's not quite sure how to act when he first sees Armin. Should he reach out and strangle him or give him a five-second head start? These are choices that need to be made.

So far, the five-second head start idea sounds favorable. ]

Armin.

[there are a lot of thoughts going through Armin's head at the moment, but the most urgent ones boil down to oh shit. he's unarmed, alone, and there is no way in hell he could even run away fast enough. he is going to die.

he's not letting the terror show on his face, though - the only hope he has right now is in remaining calm.]

Bertolt.

[ there is probably no way that this won't end well, all things considered. but he's going to draw this out, just for a little bit. he still remember's armin's comments, there's no way he won't forget about them. and between just the two of them, he knows for sure that he's the one who stands a better chance here.

he turns, so that he's fully facing armin. ]

I should've figured that if you were here this'll be the first place you go.

[ a pause as he takes in armin's clothes ] I take it you're a student, then?

I suppose I've always been predictable like that.

[the slightest glance down at bertolt's clothes, never fully taking his eyes off his face.]

I take it you're not. What's your role in all this?

I'm an instructor.

[ LET THAT SINK IN ARMIN :) ]

[THAT IS JUST TERRIBLE.]

...I see.

[he doesn't bother asking what instructors do because he can hazard a pretty good guess.]

[ :) ]

Hmm, we should try to get along, shouldn't we?

...

Yes, I think that would be for the best.

Oh, but do try to follow the rules, alright?

Of course. I wouldn't want to cause any trouble.

Since if you do, I'll need to punish you.

Yes, I assumed that would be the case.

[no need to spell it out dude]

[ Reiner isn't all that interested in the library, but it gives a perfect spot to ambush someone and lo and behold... there's Armin. It shouldn't be too tough to hide around the corner from where he's wandering and jump out at Armin when he least expects it. ]

Ha! Hello, Armin.

[someone jumping out like that would already be enough to startle him, but when it's an actual literal titan? yeah. yelping and jumping back hard enough to fall to the ground.]

R-reiner...

[ What is there to be afraid of? He's on your side, isn't he? ]

Oh boy, you should see the look on your face! [ Reiner thinks it's hilarious. ]

[he's just about to respond to that when he actually registers what Reiner's wearing.]

...You're a student?

Yes? Not the same kind as you, though.

I thought you'd be an instructor along with Bertolt.

I wouldn't know what to teach.

I think the position's more about enforcing the rules than teaching.

I would be better at that, true.

[his expression hardens a little at that.]

I'm sure you would.

[ What's wrong, Armin? It's like you don't trust him. ]

But I don't think I get a choice. So I'll just be a student like you. I'm sure Bertl won't be too hard on us, even if we do get in trouble.

It's easy for you to say that. Somehow I doubt I'll be getting any preferential treatment.
