Yeah, I heard all about your thrilling conversations forever ago.

[Hange scoffs, clearly sounding unimpressed. Sorry, Eren, if you were expecting further context on that it isn't going to come. There are more important things to focus on here!]

I'm asking Gabi and Historia now.

[The sound of fingers tapping on phones is the only thing to fill for room for several minutes as they both message their other comrades present in the city, Hange's message asking if either of the girls are away on a mission right now.]

[No response comes within the first minute (rude) so Hange drops the phone onto the nearby table, crossing arms with a huff.]

It's possible we just missed him and he only left today or yesterday.. but if not, he'd better not be out there alone! What's he going to do, hug a bear so he doesn't turn into a rock?

[when i get my hands on you, levi ackerman!!]

[ What the fuck…that's a weird thing to hear, but he doesn't actually ask about it. Maybe he doesn't want to know. Why are they talking about him?

Just kidding, he figures they talk about him because Levi is still just babysitting him anyway. He is aware they both care about him, but there's still some nebulous feeling of what is deserved and what is not, and the idea that either of them might actually want to be around him at all is still hard for him to grasp. But that's especially true with Levi.

If that was "forever ago" though, maybe they don't still have to talk about him. It's not like he's done anything questionable that they're aware of. Probably.

Anyways, this isn't about him for once!

He does text Jean and Mikasa (separately) to ask them if they heard anything. Wait, does Mikasa even talk to Levi? Do they even get along? He has no idea. Doesn't matter right now. ]

If he only left today or yesterday it could be ages before he gets back. But could he get far enough away in a day that the messages don't send…?

[ He has no idea how cell phones work or where the range ends or what could cause that to happen.

If only Eren still had a sense of humour and could laugh at that image of Levi hugging a bear. But alas, not today. ]

Going alone would be stupid. He's not stupid.

[ Right, Hange? ]

I didn't know that there are times they would be unable to send, I assumed they worked all of the time. It hadn't been an issue until now...

[Does that mean their own phones had not been working at times when they were on the mission? So they are not quite as reliable as they seemed to be...]

...You're right, he isn't stupid. If anybody was going to survive out there, it's Levi.

[But..]

...But who would he go with? Maybe he did go with a random guildmate after all, but why would he be that desperate to go? You guys are paying the rent with no problems, right? He could have waited until we were back...!

[So why the fuck is he gone with such a shitty little note?]

Dammit, Levi! I'm going to keep messaging him until they go through.

Me either. What does that even mean, it's out of range. Out of range of what?

[ The other phones?? How do these things work? To Eren, they've always been magic. Does magic stop working somewhere? Ughhhh what a pain in the ass. ]

He must have some kind of friend or something.

[ But WHOMST. It's not like Eren is privy to most of Levi's life but it's also not like Levi ever has anyone come over here besides Hange, and he can sometimes be a homebody. The mystery continues. ]

Good luck.

[ How many messages is Levi going to get all in a flood? Too many, sounds like. ]

If he had other friends, he would have told me, right?

[Hange tells Levi when they make friends! Or even if its some random conversation in the department store! Or what they ate for lunch! Surely he would be just as forthcoming with any information like that right!]

[They try texting again but as expected, the messages get bounced back after a minute or so. SIGH.]

I'll let you know if I ever get through to him, or if any of the others end up sending a message to say that they have seen him.

[But for now, unfortunately, it seems all they can do is wait while overthinking all the bad things that could happen.]

I would guess he'd tell you. It's not like he'd tell me.

[ Back to that whole "they don't talk" thing. Not that Eren is forthcoming about who his friends are, either. All, like, three of them. ]

Okay. We'll just wait for him til then.

[ He figures he'll go back home for now and feed the cat like Levi told him, if it's around. What else can he do? Not having feelings was a lot easier than this, ugh. ]
