[Luceti] [1st • Written] (backdated to the 12th ok)
[part 1 - arrival]
[ in the world he comes from, knowledge of what exists beyond the three walls that both confine and protect humanity is limited, even forbidden. Though he's ventured beyond the outermost wall - something that only the Survey Corps is capable of doing, and always with sacrifices - Levi knows humanity has only seen an immeasurable fraction of what it once had. He cannot begin to fathom what the rest of the world could be like outside of their short ventures beyond the walls.
So when he awakens in this place, it doesn't occur to him that it could be a different world entirely.
Although the wings are unsettling. Those are new. And itchy as hell. ]
The fuck...
[ in a world where people can transform into titans taller than the monstrous walls that keep them caged, the sudden appearance of wings somehow doesn't seem that terribly far fetched, even if he has no idea how or why, or - more importantly - whom.]
[Part 2 - recon: Written/Action]
[ It's been several hours now, and all of the information he's gathered so far is confusing at best and disturbing at worst. Knowledge of the outside world had been limited, but knowledge of other worlds? Unheard of. He's still trying to wrap is head around it.
After checking for the gear (nowhere to be found, much to his irritation, and thankfully he hadn't had to go far for his uniform), he finds a bench and takes out the journal-like device and studies it thoughtfully. The technology is foreign, and somehow it seems exceedingly fragile - though there is a space to write, and that's all he needs at the moment to help organize his thoughts.
So the following appears, in meticulous, elegant penmanship that he'd only learned a few years ago:]
[ooc: intro for Levi! Feel free to respond via journal (he's unfamiliar with technology so expect a WTF reaction for the first few replies), or find him wandering around town.
ALSO: Threads with the AOT cast will very likely contain spoilers for events that happen in the manga after the anime!]

So the following appears, in meticulous, elegant penmanship that he'd only learned a few years ago:]
- No reports or knowledge so far of Titans among general populace
- No walls - a 'dome' keeps people in by someone/something called the 'Malnosso'
- Inhabitants appear to be from diverse locations
- Human experiments...need more information about these damn wings
- Captors supposedly provide unlimited food, clothing, shelter. Pretty fucking convenient way to keep people placated.
- Currently no 3DMG found; other weapons readily available
- Technology much more advanced than anything found within the walls ("Electricity?")
- Rumors of a war with a group called the 'Third Party' that seeks to exterminate all living within the dome - motivation unknown
- ...animals can talk...fucking creepy; might be useful
Require more information about location, threats, etc.Where the fuck am I and how do I get home.

[you'll have to ask at this point, Erwin. It's cold out, so he's wrapped up. Frankly he's surprised that Erwin hasn't bothered to put on his own cloak.]
I'm going to guess that you haven't met anyone else we know.
no subject
If not directly, then how?
[ A brief glance down at the journal. He may already know. ]
I haven't. You're the first.
[ Erwin hadn't been so lucky as to find his own cloak just yet, and wearing his jacket over the wings simply isn't comfortable. Thankfully, the alternate clothing he'd picked out is warm enough, and seems designed with the wings in mind. ]
no subject
I figured.
no subject
What did you do when you used it?
no subject
[short, simple. He pulls out his journal and opens it to show Erwin. The list he'd made is there, along with a handful of replies in different handwriting in between Levi's own careful script.]
no subject
[ But he doesn't wait for Levi's permission. Carefully, he slides the journal from Levi's fingers in order to examine it more closely. He gives Levi's list and the responses it received a quick skim, intrigued. He can understand the concept perfectly well, but it's still strange. Creepy, even, as Levi had put it. Yet undoubtedly useful. ]
Have you been told whether or not it is possible to write to only one person?
[ He's pressing buttons, now, specifically the link to the guide which several people provided Levi with. ]
no subject
Some kid mentioned it, but otherwise I haven't been able to work that out yet.
Most people are surprisingly easy to get information out of.
no subject
[ Eager to help, even. He's paging through the guide still, though only half reading it. He'll look through it in its entirety at little later. ]
From what I've gathered, we could be here for quite some time.
[ It isn't a thought he likes, but it may be a reality they'll have to deal with. ]
We should make preparations with that in mind.
no subject
Jean and Marco appear to be living some sort of 'community building'. We should find some place to go so we can start making preparations.
[such as gathering things like food. And lots of it, because he doesn't want to risk being without should the Malnosso decide to suddenly stop being so generous. And weapons, in the event the gear takes some time to show up.]
no subject
You think that it would be best for both of us to stay together?
[ Erwin knows very well how particular Levi can be, and he doesn't want to intrude. But truthfully, he thinks it's safest and most convenient for them to be nearby one another--and close enough to Jean and his friend to keep an eye on them. ]
no subject
You're free to do whatever the fuck you want if you've got a better idea.
[granted he's not about to share a small room with anyone, including Erwin, unless there's no other choice. But of probably anyone anywhere, if Levi had to live directly in close quarters with someone for a long period of time, it may as well be him. One benefit of 'humanity's strongest' and being a top level squad leader is that he can usually count on having his own space, even if it is small, most of the time.
That and it's not as though the barracks ever stay terribly full for long.]
no subject
Not at all. In fact, I agree with you.
[ Erwin isn't particularly keen on sharing a room with you either, Levi. He's a clean man himself, but quite frankly, he doesn't think he could live up to your standards. Being in the same general living space shouldn't be too bad, though; much the same as living in the barracks. ]
Let's try to find somewhere suitable.
no subject
There should be some apartments still available in the same building or nearby.
[ Yeah, because he'd make you wash your feet before you get into your own bed and get really cranky if you don't bathe daily. Maybe 'close by' also means 'on separate floors.' ]
no subject
Do you promise?]Their building should be suitable, though we shouldn't crowd them.
[ Few things are more nerve wracking than having your superiors breathing down your necks, after all.
But yeah no. He's learned to deal with your routines and your idiosyncrasies, Levi, but he isn't ready for that much first-hand experience, thanks. He'll wash his feet when he wants to. ]
no subject
The only time Erwin would dare to breathe down Levi's neck is when he's fucking him anyway.][He snorts.]
I'm not interested in being next door neighbors. Just close enough to keep an eye on them.
[ He likes. To be. Clean. ]
no subject
WOAH woah getting a little ahead of yourself there aren't you?]My thoughts exactly.
[ Yes. He knows. But Erwin has some strange habits of his own, he supposes, and Levi puts up with those; it all balances out. ]
We should go there now and claim a space.
[ They'll at least have a base of operations that way. ]
no subject
You started it.]I agree.
[ he'll let you lead the way, Erwin. ]
