video; un: reiner
[ The video opens on a young man in his late teens. Tall, blond hair, gold eyes, solid build—good looking, carrying himself with an air of confidence. ]
Wow, this technology is something else. Weird to think that I don't have to write a bunch of letters.
[ He smiles, easy and genuine, matching his voice. ]
I'm Reiner Braun. I'm looking for a few friends of mine, and it seems like this is the easiest way to get the word out.
One of them is a tall guy—taller than me—with dark hair and green eyes. He probably looks nervous, like he wants to be anywhere but here. The other is a shorter girl, blond hair and blue eyes, who looks like she could kick your ass. She can, too, so maybe don't test her patience.
[ He pauses for a second. ]
I guess I'm also looking for anyone else who recognizes me. Better to get any reunions out of the way now, right?
Anyway, if you see anyone matching those descriptions, I'd appreciate it if you let me know. Or if you just wanna chat. I'm pretty new here, and it'd be nice to meet some friendly faces.

He's distracted from asking more when Iggy mentions healing people with magic. His eyes widen a bit, genuinely impressed. ]
That's incredible. I had no idea these powers could do stuff like that. [ He gestures to himself. ] I'm Autumn. From what I've gathered, most of what I have to look forward to is mental. "Controlled insomnia" and stuff.

Easy to keep that energy and smile there in her voice.]
Right? I can also make plants and stuff grow or bloom faster, and purify air and... liquids? If I'm remembering the stuff I read right. That's all just basic, can get better and stronger in it! [She could do a lot of stuff to help people here.] It's not bad- more so if you have to stay awake for some reason. There's earth manipulation with the more elemental stuff, yeah?
no subject
That all sounds amazing, Iggy, [ he says, meaning it. As for his own powers: ] Yeah, Autumn has earth creation and manipulation. Those'll come in handy if I ever take up gardening.
[ He says it half-jokingly. He spent two years working on a farm, so he's not ignorant. But honestly, when will someone like him have time to garden?
He glances up as someone approaches them behind the counter, carrying a bowl and what might be mineral oil. Looks like their food is arriving. ]

... Maybe she could pick it up as a hobby for any friends made here? Little bundled gifts of whatever she could grow in a windowsill garden, or something like that. She'd look into it later.
Ah, food (and oil!) had arrived, hands and arms moving off the bar so her small bowl of mineral oil could be set in front of her easily. A Thank you! to their server, and her head tipped-
That bowl of ramen was nicely packed, and no skimping on the broth either.]
Looks like a petty good first meal. Eat up, and hopefully enjoy.

So this meal? It looks… ]
This is amazing.
[ Quiet words, spoken from the heart.
Reiner has no idea how to use chopsticks, nor does he want to try when he really wants to eat. So he takes up the provided fork, spins it in the noodles, and brings them to his mouth.
Please excuse the blissful sound that escapes him. The food tastes good. ]
no subject
I'm glad that I guessed right with something you might like.
[All the better to remember, and come back to. A reasonable price that it could be a place to come back to as often as he liked, and there was jut so much food for servings if he had a big appetite. Seemed like the best bet.
Iggy picked up her bowl, and for the first time her 'mouth' opened so she could take a 'sip' of the mineral oil within. Pleasant enough for a pleased sigh of a sound. Easy to make do with what she could 'consume' in a place like this that just wouldn't have any sort of knowledge to cater to Omnics.
Easy way to enjoy some meal with someone, too.]

In either case, he's quick to finish and happy to chat with Iggy again, seeming to settle in more now that he has something in his belly. Their conversation is warm and friendly, matching the atmosphere of the place.
And when second helpings arrive, Reiner takes a stab at learning how to use chopsticks. He'll need some more practice—but hopefully, he'll improve by the time he and Iggy meet for lunch again. ]
