[Revali definitely isn't butting into the conversation, he's just mumbling to himself. He's still staring at the titan. Turn into a titan? That can happen?
Huh. Maybe it's like a disease. You get it and one day, you turn into a titan and wreck the house you live in. Maybe this person lived in this house here and it happened, and now that's why it's just nested there in the house, with weak limbs and all.
It'd certainly explain how it got here in the first place! But it doesn't explain the destruction in other places. Hm...]
Perhaps this once was a normal person on the roof, and it turned into...this.
[ The seniors look at you strangely with your theories. Clearly this is just a weird happenstance, nothing to look at here. They turn to look at Connie, now that they can afford the time to do so and walk towards him, the blond, and Rex. ]
"Hey, did you see any dead bodies?"
[ Connie shakes his head. The blond boy shakes his head and responds with "No."
And then you hear a voice. It comes from everywhere at once.
It's Bertolt's voice. ]
"I didn't see any either."
[ The seniors look at each other in confusion. ]
"Is this even possible? For titans to destroy a whole village without leaving a single drop of blood behind?"
[ One of the seniors, clearly forcing a positive attitude. ]
"I'd say this means they all managed to escape in time! Because if they really had been devoured, there would've been at least some traces left. But there's none, which means no one got eaten, I'm sure!"
[ Connie waits for a second, tears pooling at the corners of his eyes as he starts to accept this. He's starting to look hopeful.
But more importantly, Rex shakes his head as well. ]
I didn't see any bodies either. But...someone mentioned something about people turning into these things?
Maybe that's what this was. [ gestures to the titan crushing the house. ] And...maybe everyone else here. They just...turned into giants and walked away?
[ as he says it, his voice turns upwards as though in question, like this is too ridiculous to be possible. But, well. These giants are pretty impossible too. ]
[Revali says to the rest of the group. Let Rex handle the seniors, tell the rest of Chasma characters:]
You'd think a bunch of giants would leave more widespread destruction than this. [Like, there's destruction, but there's also a lot of stuff still standing, people in houses, and as they mentioned, no blood. It brings one thought to Revali, honestly:] If they turn giant perhaps they turned back to normal size and now are in this town at this very moment.
[Perhaps they're residents of this place. Still, apparently Revali is thinking people turning giant is kind of a quirk of this...world, not having grasped yet how dangerous titans truly can be]
It does appear to have destroyed the house as it transformed, rather than simply falling. But it doesn't make sense for there to be an entire village like that, if it's a rare ability.
so roxis just about jumps out of his skin as that haunting voice rings out while they're being shepherded back, having to bring a hand to his chest as he whirls and glances back. unfortunately for me i didn't roll a 1 so goddammit. :unamused:
'welcome back.'
... he's going to glance between connie and the titan in some slight concern, but also: titans can talk? ... good to know?
[ oh, he hates that sound. warily, Rex will spare a glance backwards at the titan to see if maybe he can glean who that was addressed to. Are its eyes still trained on Connie...? Was the message meant for him? ]

[ One of the seniors calls out. They seem ready to get going and keep on with their mission.
They're herding everyone back to the horses.
As you walk away from the Titan, a voice calls out to someone. ]
Wₑₗ...cₒₘₑ... Bₐcₖ...
[ There is no one else around, you know that. There is only one possible place that voice could have come from: the titan itself. ]

Welcome back...who? The one who had run to see it up close? Probably. Revali just keeps his eyes on the titan, creeped out]
