[the warp band video is as grainy and black and white as always. When it comes on, it's pointed toward the kitchen table. Laid out on the table are feathers. Three of them are about three feet long, and another four are between a foot and six inches. Even without color, it's possible to tell that these aren't just any ordinary feathers. These feathers seem to be made of gleaming metal, the individual barbs at the base coalescing into solid steel just a few inches higher.
Then, Eren speaks]
Hey. I'm finally done molting, so I have a new crop of feathers to sell or trade. Molting sucks. But at least I can make some money off of it. I used two of them to make new swords for myself, and then payment for the blacksmith, and then a few weren't really high enough quality to be used…
uh. Oh! If you don't know, Skarmory feathers make some of the best swords ever. They're light and just flexible enough to not break, and they hold an edge like no one's business. [Eren turns the warp band to himself, and he draws one of his swords. It only vaguely resembles the feathers on the table] You just have to take them to one of the blacksmiths in town and you can get whatever kind of hilt you want on it. The smaller feathers make good knives and stuff.
Anyway, prices are negotiable, but don't expect to get these cheap. They're worth a lot more than you'd think, but I'd figure I'd try and sell them over the warp bands first. I know there's lots of Guards and Rangers and [he makes a small gagging noise] Swords check the warp network a lot. [pause] Even if you don't need a blade, they make good gifts.

WHAT EVEN IS A DINOSAUR.
... hell she's not 100% sure what a pig is.
Man she feels dumb when people reference these things she doesn't know ]
Sounds rough.
[ Video ]
It is. He's strong, though. That's the only reason I haven't let him go. I'm afraid he'll get into trouble. Or... rather... cause trouble.
[ Video ]
Yeah, that tracks. You heard me saying the same 'bout that eyeball a while back.
[ Video ]
Yeah, I remember. I don't really want to trade him away, either, you know? He's really strong. Maybe if I find someone I think can put him in line.

I'm not saying I can't! I'm a good trainer!! But... there might be someone out there better than me, is all!

[ Maybe she's just joking around by now . . . ]
