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.]

Quite a bit. Where shall I start?

[This math lady is being all to the point.]

[ Good, someone is. ]

Um, with anything that I should know? Like where we are and why we're here.

We are unsure, and presumably to play some kind of game that will involve a good number of us being maimed or dying.

Zaniah Sakuma, by the by. It is a pleasure.

That's horrible, what makes you think that?

Uh, Reiner Braun. I'm on the [ He looks down at his red clothes. ] red team.

Experience, and math.

...Respectively. You are on the math team. Worry not, however, I shall do as I am able to ensure we all remain relatively intact. I would ask for your assistance as well.

I'll do whatever I can. [ He subtly flexes his muscles to indicate how serious he is. ]

You have my thanks.

That said, I must ask what sort of person you are. Please, tell me about yourself.

I'm a soldier for the Survey Corps, an intense section of the military that protects the last of humanity. Is that what you mean?

Indeed...

That may be useful. What skills do you have?

Hand to hand combat, armed combat, survival, hunting, horseback riding, 3D maneuvering gear, climbing, reconnaissance... [ He has to stop and think if he knows anything else useful. ]

...Anything medicinal in nature?

Basic first aid. We, uh, we don't learn a lot of that. Usually when someone is hurt in the line of duty they get eaten before we can help them.

...I will have to teach you, then.

It is more important in a place like this than attacking someone else is. Far more, considering.

If you're sure...

[ He won't argue, but he doesn't believe that there's anything more he can get from first aid than from fighting. ]

I am very sure. The others here are not our enemies, and treating them as such does no one any good.

Right. Well I haven't met anyone here so far that I dislike so I think we'll be okay.

That is good. Enmity breeds little aside more enmity, and that is a spiral which should be avoided.

Right.

So where are you from? I'm guessing you didn't come from within the walls.

This time, I am from a place called California. I am an attorney. Before that, I was in a library where we were sorted into teams and made to play dangerous games.

I don't know what most of those things mean. But it sounds like you might be better off here.

Put simply, I have done this before. Unfortunately for us both, the sorts of talents we specialize in are less than useful here for anything but hunting.

Still, I'll do whatever I can. I even know one of the instructors, that should help.

Truly? Which one?
