[Okay, Eren. He'll grab the microphone and start vibrating, he's gotten the bait.
He looks around the other people lined up and nods his head toward a more secluded section that he doesn't have to worry about how crazy this (or he) actually sounds. But of course, he doesn't know anything about Eren- or the world where he comes from. Friendship is a two-way street, so if he's going to explain some things, there'll be a point where Ryuji wants to hear his backstory too.
Besides, he's naturally distrusting of anyone older than him. Eren's no exception to the rule.
When they're aside, he scratches the back of his head.]
Where I'm from, there's somethin' called the cognitive world. It exists like... uh... kinda under the real world? I dunno, this is some trippy shit. But just before I joined COST, a god decided to merge the cognitive world into the real world so that he could control everything.
... I know this sounds kinda crazy. [Ryuji just looks at Eren, gauging whether or not he's looking on with any tick of incredulity. More than anything, Ryuji is a beast of affection and confirmation from others, so it's kind of important to him.]
But since the cognitive world is just like... all the fucked up thoughts of the world, people stopped believing that we existed, so I kinda just... disappeared.
