Um... This is Bertolt, and if you're hearing this I'm probably busy. You can leave a message here or call back later if you want? ...Can I start over?

He still came back.

[meteorman]

I was only asking to clarify.

[It would be a lot to hope for. But then, he met a younger Stan the last time. Anything is possible.]

What is Reiner like? I don't believe he's one I've met.

[YEAAAH LETS TALK ABOUT BERT'S LOVE LIFE AND NOT GRANDPA'S]

If he turned up in New Bark Town, I'd have left everyone sooner than I did.

But, uh... He's probably around your height - I didn't think you'd be almost as tall as me, honestly - and he has blond hair. The last time I saw him back home he almost looked a little bit like a Machoke or Bruno, but when I saw him here he was... different. He was really tired and he lost some weight, and I think it's because of what happened back home for us. He was around four years older too, which put him at... twenty-one? Maybe? But after Marcel died, he... tried to take his role and act like a big brother to everyone. Everyone looked up to him.

[Ah. So Bert's also into bears. Or at the very least, he's into masculine men. This isn't a piece of information that will ever matter to Ford at all in any practical way but it adds some extra tassels to the rich tapestry that is Bertolt Hoover.]

Ah. So the reliable leader type. I can see the attraction.

Nobody tell him.]</sub>

He wasn't always like that. When we were kids our roles were sort of reversed and Marcel's brother used to pick on him a lot. Out of all of us in the 104th, Annie and I were the only ones who knew what he was really like.
