[The voice mail message sounds like it's being recorded from a distance....]

So I just say something into here, and then it'll say it back to people later? How does that work? My voice is inside the phone? How does that wor--beeeeeeeeep

[It's fine, she'll figure it out.]

Comments

[hometown]

No

[ "No" to what? He doesn't elaborate. Then: ]

I've made some friends here. They're pretty great. I should introduce you sometime

[nodevils]

[Friends? Like with people living in Nightwake? Or people from other worlds? Gabi immediately sits up with her phone. It distracts her enough that she doesn't immediately start thinking about that "No".]

Yeah! I wanna meet them!
Who are they?

1/8

[hometown]

First there's Iggy. She's great! She loves music. She knows all kinds of stuff about it. She's from a world with really advanced technology, so she's helped teach me how stuff works. She's not like anyone I've ever seen before, either. Her people, Omnics, they have a lot in common with Eldians. People hating us for past stuff, you know

[hometown]

76 just goes by a number. He's great. I'm pretty sure he was in his world's military. Maybe that's why he looked familiar at first. He's older and really great. I like hanging out with him. He's great

[ How many times can he say "great"? ]

[hometown]

Hakkai is great, too. He has the scariest smile, though. Did you know smiles can be scary? His can be really scary. He's pretty new here. Newer than me, I mean. We met when we found these horrible cakes. They looked like severed limbs! Who does that?!

[hometown]

Ozymandias is a friend, too. He's kind of arrogant, but I like him. He's really generous

[hometown]

Actually, I don't know if you should meet Ozymandias. He might hit on you. I'd have to punch him

[hometown]

Evangeline hit on my Titan when we met. It was so weird that I didn't even realize what was happening for a minute. She backed off when I said I like guys, though. She's really cool. Her world SUCKS. It's refreshing talking to her. She doesn't freak out about all the bad stuff. She's friends with Jean, so I can't tell her much about home. It wouldn't be fair

[hometown]

Ruby is really nice. Shoto, too. We've only talked once, but I think they could be friends

done

[hometown]

I think I'm forgetting people. I've had a lot of drinks. It's hard to make a list

[nodevils]

You sound like you've had a lot of drinks!
I don't think I've ever seen you gush about anybody like this!
Well, maybe Historia.
But they all sound like cool people!
...okay, the one hitting on your titan sounds kinda weird.
But.
Well.
I guess it's not the first time I've seen something like that!

Also you don't have to punch anybody hitting on me, Annie-san taught me some throws for that.

please assume each line is its own rapid fire text 😂

[hometown]

Really? That's wonderful! Annie can kick anyone's ass. She throws me like I weigh nothing, and I'm me!

I really miss her throwing me

Historia is great, too. More than great. She's like a goddess. She used to be really nice to me. Things are weird here. But she's still like a goddess

I think you'd like Historia. Iggy, too. And 76. He and his partner have a bunch of Pokémon and pets. A BUNCH

[nodevils]

[Oh gosh, that's so many texts.]

Hahaha
I can imagine Annie-san's face if she heard that
I mean
It's kinda the same face she makes all of the time

Eheheheheh
Sometimes the way you talked about her, I wasn't sure if you wanted her to date you or someone else, though!

[She sends that text. Then she pauses. And sends another one.]

What's Pokemon.

[hometown]

Pokémon are great!

[ Clearly, his vocabulary has failed him. ]

You know Panzer? [ His Turtwig, who likes to sun herself beside the living room window. ] She's a Pokémon. There are a bunch of them! All different kinds. Sort of like animals, but with magic? I think that's the difference between them

[nodevils]

Oh, those little emergency food guys that came out of the vending machine?

They're called "Pokemon"? Huh.

[hometown]

[ Wait what. "Emergency food guys"…? ]

Huh?

[nodevils]

I thought it was a food vending machine. You guys are keepin' em as pets?

[hometown]

Yeah, they're little buddies. They'll bond with you and fight for you and stuff

Did you eat one?

[ He's not horrified by the idea, but at the same time: little buddies! ]

[nodevils]

No.
It said "poke" and I thought that was like, raw fish? So I was surprised when he came out and he was a bird and like, still alive.
I mean I was gonna eat him anyway, but then he got this sad look on his face.
So he lives on the roof of the building now. Sometimes I get him seed and stuff.

[hometown]

They like berries. You should give him berries sometime. Does he like the roof? What's his name?

[ That, at least, comes in a single message. (Whether that was intentional or because Reiner forgot to hit "send" is anyone's guess.) ]
