if i put a date on this i will inevitably fuck it up

[clodpole]

[ Ophilia, true to form, leaves him a text with all the usual preamble. She asks him how he is, wishes him well, tells him about how she’s been managing, and regales him with stories that have no business being in what should be a short, simple message. Once that’s out of the way, though, she cuts straight to the heart of the matter: ]

Are you at all allergic to nuts?

Yours,
Ophilia Clement

[trample]

[ Whenever they're apart, this happens often. She would endlessly prattle on about her day and wish him well, and he would simply read it all with a fond look in his eyes. He really did like the way she wrote. Others may call it prudish, but he thought it charming - since he, too, used to write that way. Although now, he simply gets straight to the point. ]

I have no allergies at all. Why?

[clodpole]

I am glad for you!

Is something perhaps wrong with the produce in Lunatia this month, then?

Yours,
Ophilia Clement

[trample]

Aren't you always?

Everything in my refrigerator looks as fresh as ever. I don't think there's any issue.

[clodpole]

That’s rather strange. Everyone has been warning me against purchasing and eating nuts.

I found this while I was looking for answers. Might you know what’s going on?

Yours,
Ophilia Clement

First I've heard of it. If that's some sort of tradition around here, it's the oddest one I've ever seen. And I've already screwed it up.

I'll get back to you soon, Ophilia.

Yours,
Eren Yeager

[ He adds that last bit as a tease. Shortly after - ]

Please don't keep looking for answers.

[clodpole]

[ Righteous indignation is a feeling hard to translate into text, Ophilia is fast learning. She spares him the stern talking-to he deserves… and the sign-off she usually finishes her texts with. ]

Why not?

[trample]

[ With her sign-off gone, her message lacks the charm it usually does. Eren imagines she's taken offense. He'd have to apologize to her some other time. ]

It's a childish game. The details of which would bore you, I'm sure.

[clodpole]

[ Ophilia Clement is only his for as long as he isn’t making fun of her!!! ]

Oh, but I am ever so curious. How are we to know when this is the first either of us has heard of it?

[trample]

I'm not really sure you would like to know. You're not one for vulgarity.

[clodpole]

I’m not sure I understand. Whatever do you mean?

[trample]

You asked. A nut in this sense is a metaphor for something else.

[clodpole]

I shall trust your judgment and choose not to pry further. But how did you come to find out about it?

[trample]

Tell me you won't go looking for it yourself after this. I found a very graphic description of what you're supposed to do.

Or rather, what you're not supposed to do.

[clodpole]

That sounds terrible. I hope you are alright.

In any case, if you are not allergic to nuts and they are safe for us to eat, I will have something for you when next you visit.

[trample]

That'll be soon. Hope you're ready.
