Well...have you been to that digital grid yet? One of the other stops on the train. We might have to travel separately but we can meet there and I'll explain everything from there. I have an idea.

[parodeity]

...I want another kiss on the other side.

[windeity]

We can make out for a little while on the other side to make up for it. I promise.

[parodeity]

[ hmmm. dave...ruffles john's hair. ] Yeah, okay. But if this goes south you get to make it up to me tonight.

[windeity]

Is that a threat or a promise? [He ducks his head under the ruffle and he laughs to himself.] Let's go then. The train station's not that far and the ride should be short.

[parodeity]

It's a demand for bribery? I had something I wanted to try anyway. [ he doesn't clarify what so ig john just gets to wonder for the whole date?? ]

[windeity]

Uh. Should I be scared? [He's not, but he's pulling Dave up so they can get going.]

[parodeity]

Only if you're not willing to experiment. [ this clarifies nothing. ]

[windeity]

I regret asking suddenly. [He grabs his keys and he hauls Dave out of the house and toward the car.] The train station in Viea Village isn't that far. Like. It's new and that alone is weird, but I'm just accepting everything at this point.

[parodeity]

Whatever, you know you'll do it. [ dave lets himself be dragged and automatically waits for john to get the door as he keeps talking. ] Rolling with things is the best policy here.

[windeity]

After a while I think we all kind of got over thinking this place was weird. [He opens the door, ushers Dave in, and gets in himself to drive.] I've talked to a few people I haven't met before who seem to think the same thing.

[parodeity]

I'm still not sure it compares to home, anyway.

[windeity]

I gave Eren Rose's walkthrough to read before we all got sucked into whatever this is, so I was re-reading it, too. You're right. Home was probably worse because we had people watching us constantly.

[parodeity]

...hm. Making out would have been way more awkward there. [ thanks dave but yeah he's avoiding the bro thing... ] What'd Eren say?

[windeity]

You mean besides the fact I didn't know I was into guys yet. [He shrugs.] He didn't say too much about it but I think that's because his world's pretty fucked up, too. Did you hear about what showed up recently?

[parodeity]

Kinda hard to miss, babe. He okay...?

[windeity]

It's Eren. It's weird for him, but he's handling it in his own Eren way. I think I'd be a little freaked out if I were him, too. Especially if I remembered I was a titan shifter.

[Driving, driving.] Makes me wonder what would happen if something like LOWAS or LOHAC showed up.

[parodeity]

As long as my apartment stays there and not here I'm good with whatever.

[windeity]

If your apartment showed up...we could burn it down. Just saying.

[parodeity]

I love that you're willing to commit both arson and murder for me.

[windeity]

First of all, I would do anything for you. Second of all I am hoping it won't come to that but I will be prepared if I have to.

[parodeity]

I'm tempted to ask you to do something crazy now but I'm blanking. Shit, I should prepare these lists in advance? Like. You already got a tattoo, so that's out.

[windeity]

Need I remind you that you have a matching one? [He rolls his eyes and slows the car as they approach the station.]

[parodeity]

Only you and Minato have ever seen it.

[windeity]

You were shirtless around Minato?
