[fiddlestick]

Hehe, okay.

[He'll reach over and pat Rean on the shoulder, comfortingly. It's okay scolded puppy, he still loves you. ]

Yeah, I hope there isn't a next time. Though, if Crow is having a time of it right now, maybe it'll be my turn next to have some nasty surprise come up from the past life?

[He says this as a joke, honestly. Because uh yeah. He's got enough memories to know he's just a music nerd]

[motiv8]

Aha... let's hope not. I think you've got enough on your plate just dealing with the two of us.

[He can't help but smile at that, self-deprecating as it may be.]

[fiddlestick]

Aww, but being with the two of you makes it worth dealing with that.

How goes training anyway?

[motiv8]

[That smile eases up.]

You're too sweet.

Ah... with Eren, or in general?

[It's not like he told Eren to keep their training secret.]

[fiddlestick]

Aha, I'm really not. You'd say the same.

Yeah, with Eren! [Like he knows a thing about sword training ok]

[motiv8]

Aha... ha.

Well.

I'm not dead yet, so it's a start?

[HELPFUL, REAN.]

Seriously, though... it's getting a lot easier to turn that power on at will, at least. I haven't been able to successfully hold it back or "turn it off" without it just running out of steam on its own first, but... I think I might be able to with more time.

I'm definitely way more in control of myself now, though.

[fiddlestick]

Aha, I figured the not dead part.

[VERY HELPFUL REAN]

That's great to hear though! So does that mean you figured out the trigger?

[motiv8]

[Nod.]

It's not so much being in danger as it is the fear of losing something... losing people. When it's just Eren coming after me, I mean, obviously I have some survival instinct, but that's normally not enough to kick it in.

Thinking about how I want to see you guys again, about how there's still so much I want to tell you and see you accomplish, that's enough.

[fiddlestick]

Aww, really? That's sweet Rean.

[Sure arguably worrying that Rean has that little self worth that he can't trigger a survival mechanism without thinking of others but....you know what? Baby steps. Baby steps is key here]

And are you lucid when it happens?

[motiv8]

Yeah. At least, for the most part. I was way less so the first few times it happened.

[fiddlestick]

Right, I was wondering.

[He eats the last of his pancake, swallowing it. Delicious fluffy pancakes]

I remember you telling me about the bear story. That's what I knew about it.

[motiv8]

Yeah. I remembered that, too, but it didn't really sink in until after everything had already happened.

It's still going to take a lot of time and a lot of work, but even just in a week I've started feeling more confident about it.

[fiddlestick]

[Nod!!]

Yeah, it sounds like you've made loads of progress! I'm sure if you keep at it, you'll get it down for sure!

[motiv8]

[Elliot... your enthusiasm is infectious, stop this. You're gonna make him blush. It's too early for this.]

Ahaha... just hope I can live up to those expectations, I guess.

[fiddlestick]

[Yeah well Rean this is what happens when you allow a little ball of sunshine to drink the large coffee. He's been caffeinated watch out world]

Hehe, I'm sure you will.

Just like we'll get through to Crow that he's still our friend.
