[fiddlestick]

Yep. You do. I'll snap a photo next time it comes up.

[usurpers]

Now I’m curious.

[fiddlestick]

That's me.

[TYPES THAT WITHOUT THINKING]

[usurpers]

What?
That’s what I really think about Crow.



That’s you. A versatile supporting threat that has amazing Heal Bell defenses for a team as it can power up on the offense. The only downside is it’s speed, but it can even be a crazy sweeper.

Plus, it’s a bird. It has one of the best, unique dual typings. It’s totally you.

[fiddlestick]

Aw, that's so sweet Eren.
You really put a lot of thought into it!
Thank you.

[HE IS TOUCHED.



That said:]


So you think Crow is a useless floppy fish
or are you going somewhere with this?

[usurpers]

Crow can be a damn good monster if he put the effort into it. That’s all he needs. When there’s something that interests him he goes headfirst into focus and disregards feelings that could usually get to people without forgetting about himself too much so he could keep working.

He cares about people. He’s genuine. But sometimes it’s too much and he ends up either looking like a clown or a dunce flopping around more than not if it means he’ll get the attention.

I don’t know what kind of powers he’ll get, but if I can guess, it’s like Gyarados. Hard hitting attacker with average defenses, but it’s that sort of attacking that can break down walls. But only if he wants to or else he just splashes around.

[fiddlestick]

[Wow, Eren really did put a lot of thought into it. Elliot's pretty impressed. There's a pause as he thinks it over and sorts out his own thoughts.]

I see...so that's how you see him.

It's not that I disagree, I actually agree with a lot of this...but I don't think he's trying to get attention. If anything, I think he's just lonely. He's from out of town like I am, but he doesn't have any family in the area and I'm pretty sure he lives alone too. It'd explain why he took to the idea of Class VII so fast.

[Honestly, he had expected more push-back, more resistance. Crow instead had welcomed him with open arms. But at the same time, he could relate to Crow's situation. He was an extrovert too. When he was lonely or nervous, he tried harder to make friends. He just did it more gently than a friendly big dog.

He's not surprised Eren would refer to it as "clowning or being a dunce". Eren was never a people's person really. ]

Though you know...you could tell him this instead of always acting like you hate him.

[usurpers]

[ he would call prostitution jokes about giving head a lot more than clowning, but—he won’t disagree. that was a more compassionate way to word things, but not unlike each other, eren thinks.

but. about that. ]

I can’t do that. He’ll mount on me for good and flunk the course. I don’t want him to fail.

[







b-baka!!!!! ]

[fiddlestick]

[Oh my god you big tsundere]

Really...?
That sounds a little dramatic...

[usurpers]

[ “that sounds dramatic”

]

Have you seen how many classes he skips? Tests he cheats on? Tests he doesn’t even study for. His curriculum’s going to be subpar and If I didn’t push him to at least have study sessions who knows how many classes he’d skid by in.

If I don’t remind him to eat something every three hours, he lives on coffee, Elliot.

[fiddlestick]

[... 💧 ]

Haha, you're really concerned about how he's doing huh....

And here I thought we weren't ready to discuss kids.

[usurpers]

. . . Kids?
Like having real kids?

[ or, you know, just get a dog or a robot ]

[fiddlestick]

[Welp]

No, no real kids. It was a joke, Eren.

I was saying that you act like Crow's your kid or something.

[usurpers]

Oh. Okay.

[ . . . ]

If having a kid feels any way like I just remembered, I don’t want one.

[ he REALLY hopes he doesn’t remember something like mom and dad conceiving him or something because

holding babies is bad enough ]

[fiddlestick]

What?

Did you just remember having a kid???

[EREN ARE YOU A FATHER]

[usurpers]

It wasn’t my kid? It was my older brother.
I mean my older brother was the baby. It was past dad with his first wife.

It’s really weird.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah..."really weird" is one way to put it.

This memory-ception of yours is rough. I almost feel like I need a chart.

[usurpers]

[ eren sends a page from one of his notebooks, and seriously try not to look beyond that because there are memory notes littered with arrows and stars to indicate what comes from who. ]

It’s a lot.

[fiddlestick]

Wow, somehow the chart makes it worse.

That is so many! I'm sorry Eren.

[usurpers]

It’s alright. They’re just confusing.

Look at the time. [ ITS LIKE 4 AM ] Sorry.

[fiddlestick]

I can imagine...

Oh wow, it's late. It's okay though! I always like talking to you.

Talk to you tomorrow?

[usurpers]

It’s fun. And I had to tell you.

[ you know about the sex ]

I love you.

[fiddlestick]

Haha, right. Something to look forward to, for sure!

Love you too.
