[This is the worst thing to ever announce. Though it had to be done. He should have done this earlier - if he had explained properly, maybe a life could have been saved. He wears an expression that doesn't say much, but his eyes are filled with what you would call rage.]

Armin Arlert was murdered near the Bay a few days ago. The culprit who did it was Reiner Braun, who just arrived to Genessia.

[He takes a small pause before continuing.]

He comes from the same world as we do. For years he pretended to be one of Armin's - and the other kids' - friends. In reality he was one of our mankind's enemies: a titan. Not just any titan, but one that broke down what protected us.

[He would be ready to answer any other questions there would be about titans and their world at this point, when titans have began to come here like they have.]

Of course he didn't operate alone. Annie Leonhardt and Bertholt Hoover were also part of his group and there may be even more of them. Annie is here as well and she already kidnapped one of ours.

They shouldn't have any reason to attack anyone - but I would still suggest being careful around them. They can shift into titans and making them stop when they're in those forms is difficult even for those who know what to do. Especially since they know exactly what they're doing.

[And yes, he's fully aware that this is a post that even Reiner and Annie can see. Hello to you.]

[ The room he's in is purposefully dark, but the light from his device is more than enough to illuminate his douchebaggy face. ]

That's awful. Who would do such a thing?

video; this is great

[cleanlevis]

Fuck off, you piece of shit.

video; what a gentleman

[sarcaskick]

That's no way to talk to an old pal.

Seriously, though, have you considered keeping the kid on a leash? Seems like bad things happen to him when he wanders off.

[cleanlevis]

Don't old pal me, you fucking psychopath.

I think it would be better for everyone if we got rid of your sort.

video; manners beget manners

[sarcaskick]

Get rid of my sort, huh? I think you're on to something there. Solid groundwork for a plan.

How?

[cantbackout]

How come you sound like he's been killed before? By you.

[sarcaskick]

I'm going to give you three guesses, but honestly if you need more than one you're hopeless.

[cantbackout]

... death isn't permanent here.

[If Petra could be here alive then it wouldn't surprise him if that was possible.

He sighs, clearly annoyed.]

That's freaking brilliant.

[sarcaskick]

Hey, gold star!

[ He clearly doesn't care whatsoever that this dude isn't happy. ]

So... my turn for making a guess. You his newest killer?

[ Well. Good to know her company is being managed right now. Also that their world isn't the only one fucking Genessia up. On top of everything else right now.. Weiss sighs. ]

Reiner Braun and Annie Leonhardt. Who did she kidnap?

[ They're both ending up on her nice little list of wanted criminals. The growing list, which is going to have to be done while trying to temporarily manage Schnee Company until Armin's better. On top of attempting to take down Cinder unless she can find someone who can actually manage a company for a few days. ]

Petra. She did return her unharmed after she got the information she wanted, but that doesn't justify kidnapping.

[whiteas]

Consider them both on the wanted criminals list for those crimes. Kidnapping isn't acceptable regardless of whether they've been returned unharmed or not and murder definitely isn't.

[cleanlevis]

Thank you. I promise to keep you informed if I hear about the third one appearing... or if the two here do something.

[whiteas]

Needless to say I can't act unless they do something within Nova City's limits, but I'll be sure to notify the other Guardians to be cautious.

Armin....the boy who has the library? [Her expression says she wants to hear that it's not him. That it's another Armin and not the kind boy she met on her first night here who let her organize his books for him.]

[cleanlevis]

Blond, short hair, blue eyes. Kind of short?

[He asks this calmly. Armin does like reading books, but he can't be sure there isn't another guy named Armin around.]

Re: private video

[fade_to_black]

[Blake's expression is one of someone who has just been punched in the gut. She didn't know him that long, but they had talked a good while about books. And he was kind to her. He'd helped a strange girl in a bar sporting a stab wound that anyone else would have found suspicious.

But he said he's known her from before and he'd trusted her to work in his library.]

What are these titans and why would they hurt Armin? [Her voice is rising a little with anger.]

Re: private video

[cleanlevis]

Death here isn't permanent. He's currently resting at the hospital, should you want to see him.

[With her reactions it's easy to figure that she's genuinely worried about Armin and wouldn't hurt him.]

Titans... are beings that hunt humans to eat them. There is also an organization that uses titans' powers to erase humanity. We don't know why - but Armin has always been a genius so it might be that they want to get rid off him because of that.

Re: private video

[fade_to_black]

Not....[Her mind blanks on how that can even be possible. Dead is - well, dead. That's how it's supposed to work. But there are two people here that should be dead and one that should be frozen, so who is to say what's possible and what's not?

Sounds like your world had it's problems as did mine. [She hesitates. Getting close to people is dangerous, but, she needs to see with her own eyes.]

What hospital? Assuming there isn't just one. I'm new here.

[Yukiko paused for a moment. Why is it bad things keep happening because of people from other peoples worlds picking up something from the world they were in before and just carrying on. It made no sense. But it was enough to make Yukiko consider a few things.]

I hate what is happening within the past few weeks. First it's people from one world now this... It makes us wonder if we should have a watch list of people who could be considered dangerous.

[cleanlevis]

It's a thing to consider. Something the guardians could monitor and keep updated.

video;

[firefandance]

But would they do something like that without the people actually doing anything?

video;

[cleanlevis]

I don't know.

[firefandance]

Guess the only way to know is to ask.

Video; super late

[wizard_redfive]

[Damn. Dairine had hoped it'd take longer before someone she met here died. Seems this place is just as bad as Paradisa in that regard.]

I see. I'm sorry to hear that.

[She takes in the information he's given about their world and sets it aside for now. It'd be terribly insensitive to go bugging him about their world's politics after someone he knows has died.]
