H-hello. I, um. I have an announcement - and a warning.
[Armin looks surprised and a little nervous - it's been a while since he's addressed the network as a whole, and he's not sure what sort of reception his news is going to receive. It's a big change, and could easily be frightening for people. But while he didn't ask for it, he's going to do his best to make use of it if he can - and that includes knowing how to use it when it's needed, which means he needs to practice. So he figures he should let people know.]
Is everyone familiar with Eren's titan form at this point? I just received more memories and scars from back home, and during the time I now remember, I gained the power of a titan as well. Except, um. Well, mine's the Colossal Titan. So it's a little bigger than Eren's.
I'm going to be trying it out in liminal - so if you hear an explosion, or if you see a sixty meter skinless titan, that's me. Please try not to be alarmed, I promise I won't hurt anybody.

Holy fucking SHIT, Armin.

It wasn't exactly my idea.

... I'd hug you, but you're kind of giant and naked right now.
[She'll just. Hug herself and send him the sensation.]

I don't want to be a - I don't want to be this titan, Jiejie. The Colossal Titan destroyed my childhood, caused the deaths of countless thousands. It wasn't me, but even so... it just feels wrong.
But I can't not use it, either. There are too many potential uses - it's too much power to let just go to waste. And it would be dangerous not to be practiced with it, too - easier to lose control
Re: [private]// psychic protection II
I'll support you in this, you know? I mean, not physically, because you're more than ten times my size now, holy shit, but in other ways.

How did you stand it, all that time? Having that thing inside you?
Re: [private]// psychic protection II
I mean, it's the truth. It was horrible and I had to exert hella self-control all the time, which I honestly do owe my sire for because despite everything he did to me, he impressed the kind of rock-solid self-control I needed onto me--but I just... got used to it. And that actually fucked me up a little when I got my human form and all my old brain weasels weren't being drowned out by the Beast anymore. Well, you saw what came of it. When I didn't have to always be my best self to keep me from being my worst, I ended up as kind of a mess.
I hate to say it, baby bro... but you'll get used to this too.

...I know.
[Really, what else is there to say?]

It's very slow and cumbersome, and I have to be very careful not to hurt people by mistake. It's a good thing I have psychic detection, or it would be hard to be aware of everyone around me. But there are definite uses for this form, it's true.
