IT SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD IDEA TO LEARN HOW TO MAKE SOMETHING MYSELF INSTEAD OF RELYING ON YEAST AND RATIONS
I LIVE WITH MORE PEOPLE TOO [ “i want to make them happy” feels so corny he’s too embarrassed to say. ] GUESS I JUST WANT TO DO SOMETHING NORMAL FOR A CHANGE
[His reply takes some time, considering the weight of the question against his own lived experiences. Against what is possible, how decisions are made, how futures are defined...]
No. Not necessarily. At the same time, it is impossible to truly know.
I DON'T WANT TO BELIEVE IN IT. I'VE TRIED NOT TO FOR A WHILE. BUT EVERYTHING ALWAYS PANS OUT IN A WAY THAT WORKS TOWARDS IT EVEN IF I TRY TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
I THINK THE ONLY THING I DIDN'T FORESEE WAS NOCTIUM SOMEHOW.
I understand that feeling. In some cases, there will be situations you cannot avoid, no matter what you try to do in an attempt to change your own reality. You have to face what is to come and react in the way you believe is right.
[Even saying this much, his own words feel hollow. It's a sensation of uncertainty he is not accustomed to.]
These dimensions are beyond many of our expectations. Even if we were aware, I don't know if it would be possible to prepare for them.

No. A recipe is generally more complicated. Exact measurements, temperatures, and a list of steps. You must get it perfect.
First of all, the shape and texture are both wrong.

You should abandon your attempt. It is a lost cause.

Have you spoken with someone named Mo Guanshan? He would likely be able to help.

SOUNDS LIKE A CHARMER
THANKS
THERE’S ONE MORE THING I WANTED TO ASK YOU
no subject
What is it?
no subject
YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE.
no subject
Synchrony is sometimes intense. Can you be more specific?
[He may have a guess, but he wants to coax it out of Eren first.]

“MONSTER” DOESN’T EVEN COME CLOSE.
no subject
No. I suppose it doesn't.
There are some actions which cannot be forgiven.
no subject
IT HASN’T HAPPENED FOR ME YET, BUT I KNOW IT WILL.
DO YOU BELIEVE IN FATE?
no subject
No. Not necessarily. At the same time, it is impossible to truly know.
But you must, if you are certain it will happen.

no subject
Or that it could?
no subject
YEAH.
TO THE POINT THAT I DON'T WANT TO GO BACK SOMETIMES.
BUT WHAT'S THE POINT IF WE CAN'T CONTROL THAT?
no subject
It may be likely that, in the event you do return, you won't remember this place or how it has changed you. You shouldn't worry.
[Is that reassuring? Maybe not. But without more information, they can't agonize too much.]
no subject
HAS THIS HAPPENED TO YOU YET? FORGETTING WHERE YOU’VE BEEN, WHO YOU ARE?
no subject
I don't think I could ever forget something like that, but perhaps it becomes easier to set aside. To wait.
I may not be the best individual to speak with on this subject.
no subject
I'VE NEVER TALKED ABOUT IT WITH ANYONE, SO I WOULDN'T KNOW.
THANKS, EITHER WAY. I'LL THINK ABOUT IT.
