[When the video feed opens, the first thing to note about Alan's appearance is that he is covered in glitter. The second is that he's dressed to clean. The third is that he looks very, very worried.]

Does anyone here know how to get fairy dust off things? Octavia was practicing her flying and...

[He moves aside to show that the glitter is not just on him, the room he's in is also full of it. As he does, he turns his back on the camera, revealing a sparkly handprint on his butt.]

I need to get rid of this before my mom comes back, but it's taking forever. This stuff really sticks to everything. And I never realised how much dust there is everywhere, I'm never gonna get the place clean enough...

Was super badass I can take him I will protect you I will sparkle in his eyes.

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Re: [video]

[drama8om8]

Fine, I will only murder and-slash-or sparkle at him if he tries to kick your ass again.

Why was he kicking your ass.

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

I don't know. But I bet think he had a good reason for it because he was like really cool.

Re: [video]

[drama8om8]

There is no good reason for kicking your ass and he does not look cool what is wrong with your past life even.

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

Maybe not my ass but let's face it past me was a dick he probably deserved it. Also I don't know okay.

Do you think he's listening to this, or.

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

Shit.

Re: [video]

[dirtdevil]

[ Just watching and listening. He's not the best at emoting, but he looks about as incredulous as he possibly can. ]

You about done over there?

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

[And Alan is still completely and utterly terrified.]

Y-yes?

Re: [video]

[dirtdevil]

Just so you know, the street name for PCP is angel dust, not fairy dust. But if that's not your excuse, what the hell's wrong with you two?

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

I'm not on drugs! It's just...

[Oh god how does he even begin to explain this]

An echo thing?

Re: [video]

[dirtdevil]

You recognize me?

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

Yeah. I think you used to be my boss or something.

Re: [video]

[dirtdevil]

And the screaming? I know no one likes their boss, but come on.

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

You were kind of scary. Also you beat me up once.

Re: [video]

[dirtdevil]

Why would I—

[ Pause. On second thought, there's no point in asking. But Alan's face suddenly seems a little familiar as well. Creepy. ]

Uh. Sorry?

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

No, it's fine. I mean. It's not like it was actually you. And I think past you was a good guy anyway so.

[He still looks kind of terrified, though. That's not going away any time soon.]

Re: [video]

[dirtdevil]

Okay, but you still look like you're about to piss yourself. There's already glitter everywhere, don't make it worse.

[ Another pause. He's not one for ~chatting~ but he's curious now. ]

You "think." Is that all you know?

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

[Oh dear god the thought of making it worse in front of this guy is the most terrifying thing.]

I won't. [It comes out more as a squeak than actual words.]

And I'm not really sure, but I think you might have been, like. In charge of making sure I didn't lose control of my titan and hurt anyone? I remember you coming up with a plan to cut me out if necessary.

Re: [video]

[dirtdevil]

[ Enjoy the blankest of blank stares. What the shit is this kid even talking about? ]

"Your titan." You wanna maybe elaborate on that a little?

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

Uh. Titans are these. Giant things?

[He gestures vaguely to indicate 'big' in a way that explains nothing.]

I can kind of turn into one.

Re: [video]

[dirtdevil]

...Okay.

If you can turn into a "giant thing," why are you scared shitless of me? What could I possibly do to you that couldn't be countered by just stepping on me?

Re: [video]

[wirsinddiejager]

I... I don't do that. Step on people, I mean.

[Beyond that, though? He's not even sure exactly why he's so scared of Levi. He just feels absolutely certain deep down in his spine that he could never beat him.]

Re: [video]

[dirtdevil]

What do you do, then? What's the point?

[ Fortunately, this Levi is a shut-in who's really only dangerous to monsters made of pixels. No danger of him lopping off any limbs in the immediate future.

Probably. ]
