Overflow: May, An Inauspicious Arrival

for takizawa

[trost]

[ from here.]

You turned? What could do something like that?

[devilyouknew]

Science.

[Ghouls aren't magical, despite how it may seem. Or at least it can be argued that way. Move a few organs around, hope the host body adapts to it, and presto - new ghoul.]

[trost]

... That really sounds like something people shouldn't be messing with.

[ why are people like this ]

[devilyouknew]

I wholeheartedly agree.

[trost]

Were you forced into it?

[devilyouknew]

I've said quite a lot already, don't you think?

[trost]

Yeah, sorry. I've probably been asking way more than I should have been.

[ He was just curious to know how it all works. Maybe they should talk about more regular things instead, then. ]

It's nice to meet you, in any case. How's the settling in so far?

[devilyouknew]

Terrible. How about you?

[trost]

[ At least he's honest. ]

Because of the food? [ Or his distrust of the food, in any case. ]

... It's actually nicer here than it is back home. [ So, even if he knows he has to return, he doesn't mind this chance to relax very much at all. ]

[devilyouknew]

It's a factor.

Would you rather stay here?

[trost]

There's no way I can do that. There are too many people to worry about back home.

It'd be nice if I could stay with Mikasa until it's time for her to leave, though.

[devilyouknew]

You don't think you'll be able to?

[trost]

Don't know if you also just arrived through the mirror or not, but if you did ... Pretty sure we'll be going home at the end of the month.

[devilyouknew]

Is that what you've been told?
