This fanfic is heavily based on an Eren X Levi roleplay between me and a friend of mine. The point of view will alternate between Levi and Eren, and sometimes even go into both in the same chapter. Also, before anyone mentions their ages; in this roleplay/fanfic, Levi is only around 24 or so, and Eren's 17. Not that much of an age gap, really.

Chapter 1
Levi felt like he was falling. He didn't know what was going on, or what ever happening at all, really. He just knew that he was swarmed with darkness, and no matter how much he tried to move, he couldn't find anything to grasp, not to mention the fact he wasn't sure if he was even moving. He couldn't breath, and overall he was lost in his thoughts, panicking.
It wasn't long however before everything flashed, and he could suddenly see again. A faint light swarmed around him, and he could feel grass beneath him. His body shook somewhat, and his hands grasped at the ground beneath, too stunned to bother with the fact his clothes were getting dirty, or he was getting dirt beneath his nails.
He took in a deep breath, and he grew dizzy at the scent of gasoline, and it wasn't long before the strange sound of beeps filled his ears. He couldn't move, however, and he only sat there, dumbstruck. What was going on?
After a few moments, Levi seemed to fully regain his senses, and slowly, he began to stand, staggering slightly away from what looked to be Eren beside him, and reaching for the maneuver gear, however, to his dismay, he didn't have one on before all of this happened. Cursing slightly, the man began to look around, and his face only began to flush at the sight of tall, concrete buildings filled with windows.
The sight of cars startled him, what were those things? Not to mention everyone was wearing different clothing compared to the clothing he wore now. Looking down, he spotted Eren laying in a daze, and within moments, he had somewhat kicked the kid in the side, "Get up, brat. We have to find out what the hell just happened."
Straight to the point, he was. He knew something was wrong, and despite the fact everything was new to him, he still wanted to find out what had just happened and go home.
Eren winced at the corporal's kick, sitting up with a light glare. "Ey, no need to kick me," he huffed lightly, standing up and looking around in confusion. "...Where the hell are we?"
"If I knew, I would tell you, idiot," Levi snapped, glancing up at the taller man with an angry glare, before returning to observing his surroundings. They seemed to be getting weird looks for the clothes they were wearing, and he instinctively reached for his blade so he could threaten them, however, he didn't have it on him. Snorting, he turned back to Eren and jabbed a finger into his chest.
In all reality, he was trying to find words but was failing miserably. Never once had he heard of something like this happening. He gave yet another snort, "Seems like some sort of city, I'm sure. Though..." he cast a weird glance towards some lady with a black thing in her hand, holding it to her ear and talking into it.
"We must've been sent back in time," what was he talking about? That must've been some joke.
Eren blinked in confusion, not bothering to react to the Corporal's snappy tone. "Back in time? Is that even possible?" he questioned, titlting his head. "There's so much wierd stuff here..."
The brown-haired teen gave a light yawn and rested his hands behind his head. "Well, shouldn't we go look around or something? No use standin' around here all day."
"Well, you find out what to do! You're probably the one who got us into this mess, seeing that everyone is always after your ass," the Corporal snapped, making a small attempt to push him back a bit, before completely disregarding his own words and scanning the area around for a nearby person. It was an older gentleman walking his dog.
"Excuse me, sir, what year is this?"
At that question, he got a strange look, and the man took somewhat of a step back, "Are you drunk or somethin'? It's 2026, shrimp," the man said, somewhat stunned still, before taking off with his dog. Leaving behind a very angry Levi.
Eren snickered a bit at the conversation, rolling his eyes at the way Levi spoke to him. He quietly walked over to the short little man, taking a dangerous risk to place his hand on Levi's shoulder.
"You should calm down, Corporal," he stated, the tiniest smirk on his face. "Really; no use getting all worked up."
He then gave another yawn and continued to gaze around, seeming confused about pretty much everything. There were so many unfamiliar things, and it just confused the both of them to no end.
Levi whipped around toward Eren as he placed a hand on his shoulder, grimacing slightly at his touch yet not making a move to remove his hand. This place was different, and he knew he would have to be careful not to attract too much attention because, well, nobody knew who he was.
Looking around, he began to freak out. Where were the walls? He didn't see any, and sure the buildings were tall, but really, where were the walls? "Eren. There are no walls," it was obvious that he was starting to become uneasy, quite uneasy, as he looked at the people passing by.
They looked as if they had no worries in the world, like titans were just waiting to snatch them up and eat them.
Eren also gazed around, eyes widening as he realized what Levi had pointed out was true. "...No walls?" he gulped, a slight look of fear on his face. "And we don't have the 3D maneuver gear... Titans could attack us at any moment without any walls, and we'd have no defense!"
"They don't seem to be panicking at all. If we really are in the past... then... is this the time before the Titans?" Levi's brow furrowed slightly at that, and a frown crossed his features. They really had gone quite far back in time if this was true. "I left the maneuver gear laying around... Crap, what is Erwin gonna do when he sees my crap laying around like that? He knows I'm a clean freak, perhaps then something will be known," he mumbled to himself, before reaching back and tugging at Eren's sleeve.
"You're tall, tell me, do you see anything similar to a maneuver gear or anything of the sort that belongs to somebody?"
Eren continued scanning the area as Levi spoke, and then suddenly snickered at the shorter male's last statement.
"You just basically admitted you're short," he chuckled, a smirk on his face. "Though... no, I don't see anything of the sort."
The Corporal grimaced slightly as Eren pointed that out, "It's different if I say it," he snarled, lifting up a hand and clenching it into a fist, his knuckles white as he resisted the urge to punch the younger man, "We should get moving... maybe some of the others have found themselves in a similar situation."
Eren just rolled his eyes at that and grabbed Levi's arm, hauling him along as he walked absentmindedly through the streets, the both of them looking around and seeing nothing familiar, and multiple things they had never seen before.
Like cars. And phones. And iPods. And a bunch of other stuff.
This place was just weird and confusing, but yet interesting at the same time.
Levi stumbled behind Eren, and eventually he broke into a flurry of curses as he nearly fell over entirely, "Slow down, brat," he snapped, before feeling somebody tap on his shoulder.
"Uh, excuse me, are you looking for the anime con? If so, you're really heading the wrong direction," the strange person said, looking them up and down and observing their attire.
"Sorry?" Levi inquired, frowning somewhat. What was this 'anime' they spoke of? It seemed extremely strange, this new world.
Eren also turned to look at the stranger, cocking his head to the side with a confused expression on his face. "What's an anime con?" he asked, blinking. "I dunno what that is."
"Then you guys are strangely dressed for a casual walk through the street," the man snorted, waving his hand around nonchalantly, "You can't be wearing Shingeki no Kyojin gear and not be going to a convention, like, c'mon. That's just weird as hell," he snorted, glancing at Levi warily, "It is quite strange how similar you guys look to the real thing."
Eren and Levi blinked in complete and utter confusion. "Um... What is Shingeki no-... whatever you just said?" Eren asked, looking to be pretty damn confused. "Er... what are you talking about?"
"Manga? Anime? Attack on Titan? Jesus Christ, you really are clueless, aren't you? You look exactly like Eren Jaeger, and this shorty here looks like Heichou. Like, seriously? I can't believe it," he mumbled, shaking his head, before beginning to walk away. Levi had to hold back a punch to his arm, and his knuckles grew white once again.
"Maybe we should try and find this... 'con'. Maybe it could hold some answers," he mumbled, moving his hands away from Eren's grasp and rubbing his temples. This was giving him a headache.
Eren just stared after the man, the expression on his face utterly priceless. His jaw dropped, eyes widened. "I /am/ Eren Jaeger!" he exclaimed, rushing to catch up to the stranger and grab him by the arm. "And that short guy is Corporal Levi! How do you know who we are?!"
"Don't call me short!" Levi snapped, lifting up his clenched hand and punching Eren in the back before looking at the man, "Tell me how you know who we are?" he snarled, glaring up at the man with an obvious frown, his hands clenched into fists and his knuckles white.
"Dang, you guys must be hardcore roleplayers. Seriously. Lay off," the man snorted, shoving Eren away before taking a step back, "Attack on Titan, man. Everybody knows what that is. How could anyone forget Eren, the main character, and that short bugger Levi?" he exclaimed, casting a bored glance at Levi before awkwardly glancing at the crowd that was forming, "Back off."
With that, the man turned away again and left, pushing through the crowds of people and refusing to look back.
Eren just stared after the man, eyes wide. "...What the hell is going on...?" he muttered, clenching his fists. He then seemed to suddenly get an idea and once again raced after the man, for the second time grabbing him and stopping him by the arm. "Wait! If you know who I am, then... does that mean you know about my, er... ability? If that's true, I could use it to prove I'm the real guy!"
Levi hurried after Eren, and after hearing his suggestion, grabbed his sleeve and yanked him backwards, "Are you an absolute idiot?! Even you should know that's not a smart idea! We're in a city filled with people who have no idea of the existence of titans, you clueless idiot!" Levi snapped, slamming his palm against Eren's arm.
Eren yelped and drew back, rubbing his arm. "Hey! If they know who we are, wouldn't that mean they also know about the Titans? And my ability?" he huffed, glaring at the Corporal. "If that's true, shouldn't that mean I could change to prove who I am, and I'm not just some fake?"
"You could kill people, Eren! You don't know if your ability was screwed up!" he snapped, moving to stand in front of the man and standing up straight, staring up at him with a death glare, "They've obviously never faced a real titan if they seem to be having fun over it!" he snarled, crossing his arms in a menacing manner, "If you never knew about the existence of titans and one appeared in front of your face, what would you do?!" he snapped.
Turning to the crowd that had seemed to be following them, he lifted up a hand and gave them all the middle finger, his face growing red from anger, before turning to Eren, "Let's get out of here, we need to find some peace and quiet," he grumbled, keeping his hand up.
"My ability works fine!" Eren huffed back, crossing his arms. "I won't kill anyone!"
He then glared at the crowd, childishly sticking out his tongue, before turning his back. "Fine, Corporal, c'mon. Let's try and find that 'anime con' people keep going on about."
Levi scanned the area, and soon he spotted several people who seemed wildly dressed, and were going the opposite direction. Dropping his middle finger, he pointed towards the crowd of strangely dressed people, and watched as they went into a building.
"There. That must be it," he huffed, grabbing Eren's sleeve firmly and taking a step into the busy street, only to let out a screech as a car passed by unexpectedly and he moved back, somewhat confused. Yea, this as definitely new to him.
Eren rolled his eyes at Levi's reaction to the car. "I'm surprised you just now noticed those," he chuckled. "Honestly, don't you think it's not a good idea to walk right in the middle of the street where those things are moving?"
He then grabbed Levi's arm and hauled the smaller man off, heading towards the building... and then suddenly caught sight of what looked to be Mikasa!
He quickly rushed towards her, causing Levi to slam his palm into his own face. "Mikasa!" Eren called, a large, stupid grin on his face. "You're here too! Are any of the others here?!"
'Mikasa' stared at him in confusion, tilting her head to the side. "Um... hello there?" she greeted, looking a bit confused, as if she didn't know Eren. "I didn't expect to be greeted by another AoT cosplayer like that so suddenly."
Eren's face fell, a sad, puppy-like look in his eyes. "So you're not the real Mikasa," he sighed, turning and walking back over to Levi.
"There's lookalikes here."
Levi couldn't help but snicker at Eren's stupidity and he once again shoved him slightly, "I doubt if anybody else came along with us they would've landed elsewhere. You landed beside me, so, the others probably would've landed next to us or nearby," he shrugged slightly, before stepping past Eren and going into the building, "C'mon, kid."
Eren gave a small whine and followed the smaller man into the building, each of them looking around at all of the look-alikes of their friends, and even saw another Eren and a Levi. "Levi, this place freaks me out," Eren commented, sounding a bit uneasy. "Why are there so many look-alikes? How do people know who we are?"
They then passed a poster and Eren stopped, staring at it. It was a large poster with Eren at the front, looking all badass, with Levi and the rest of the Survey Corps beside/behind him, with the words "Attack on Titan/Shingeki no Kyojin" written on it, with Titans far in the background.
"What the hell..."
Lifting up a hand, Levi dramatically pointed toward the poster, "This is probably what everyone is talking about, Eren. This... weird thing," he snorted, directing his gaze. Sure enough, he saw a lot of people dressed up as the survey corps, and even a few that looked like him.
It was quite strange, really, but he wouldn't question it. He knew the world was different before the titans, and this must've been it. What was really strange was all the gadgets and gizmos. Items hung on the ceiling and produces light, as well as some sort of cooling air. Not to mention the large boxes that seemed to produce moving pictures.
"Definitely weird," he already knew he was going to have to adjust to this new world, and he knew he would have to adjust to it with Eren because, hell, he wasn't going to leave him behind.
Eren continued staring at the poster in complete and utter confusion, and then a group of girls suddenly marched into the building where Eren and Levi were, and began to very loudly sing the Attack on Titan themesong, while Eren just watched them with a 'wtf' expression on his face.
Then, they suddenly noticed Levi and Eren, and ran up to them, tackling both of them with hugs.
"OMG!" one girl screamed. "YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST COSPLAYERS EVER LIKE OMG YOU LOOK JUST LIKE EREN AND LEVI!"
"YEAH, THEY'RE SO HOT!" another girl screamed. "CAN I HAVE YOUR AUTOGRAPH?!"
Eren just stared at them, a highly disturbed look on his face. An Armin cosplayer then passed by, snickering at them.
"Beware the fangirls," he said before walking off, leaving behind a very confused Eren and Levi, and a bunch of crazy AoT fangirls.
Levi eyed the girls clinging onto him with disgust, and he had to resist the urge to shove them all away. If he had his blades he would've been attacking them for sure but, fortunately, he didn't. Instead, he gently pushed them away and decided to take advantage of this opportunity.
Casting them a small smirk, he flipped back the hair that was dropping in front of his face and shrugged, "Why not? I'll do autographs," if only they knew they were getting their signatures from the real things.
Eren gazed at Levi in surprise and confusion. "What?" he huffed, also pushing the crazy fangirls off and standing. "Why are you seriously... Levi are you drunk?"
He shook his head lightly, and then gave a light growl as another fangirl glomped him.
"YOU'RE SO CUTE!" she squealed. "CAN YOU DO AUTOGRAPHS, TOO?!"
Eren blinked and stared at her with a confused look. "Erm... I uh.. Me and Levi kinda.."
"PLEASE?"
Eren gave a defeated sigh. "Fine."
The fangirls all rushed to give Eren and Levi their autograph book things, cheering and squealing and being crazy and hyper.
"Hey, can you imitate that thing where Eren turns into a Titan?!" one girl asked, bouncing up and down. "Please?!"
"Um... no thanks.." Eren responded hesitantly, holding up his hands. "I'd uh... rather not go Titan here.."
The fangirls squealed and all glomped him again.
"Aw, he's roleplaying!" one girl chirped, hugging him and squishing him to death. Damn, she was strong. "That's so cute, he's actually acting like Eren!"
"Please go Titan for us, Eren! Pleeeeaaaaassseeee!" another girl begged, giving him puppy dog eyes. Eren sweatdropped and began to back away nervously, and they just advanced.
"Pretty please, Eren?!" one of the girls whined. "PLEASSEEEEE?!"
Eren gave a defeated sigh, raising his hand to his mouth, ready to bite down. "Please, don't scream and freak out."
At the sight of Eren getting attacked by vicious fangirls, a rare smile cracked on his face, and he even had to resist the urge to break out into laughter. However, as they began to beg him to go into Titan mode, he instantly frowned, and his frown only grew as Eren lifted his hand up to his mouth.
Without a word, he gently pushed the fangirls off of them (he would've violently shoved them off, but he didn't want to stir up a scene, he was smarter than that) and nearly tackled Eren... so much for not wanting to start a scene.
"Are you an idiot?" Levi roared, backhanding the man before grabbing both his wrists and pulling them away from his mouth, his face red with anger, "First off, we talked about this. Humans who haven't seen titans before plus titans, not a good combination," he snarled under his breath, careful to make sure only Eren could hear, "What if somebody like Hanji saw and took you away? They would've give you mercy, and wouldn't hesitate to rip you apart," his voice was gradually rising, and he had to force it to calm down.
"We do not know what people during this time are like," he snapped, throwing Eren's hands down and turning to the fangirls, "Sorry, ladies. Eren can't do that," he snapped, crossing his arms.
Eren yelped as the Corporal attacked him, falling onto his back and hitting the ground painfully. "Ow..." he muttered, rubbing his now sore cheek from being backhanded by the Corporal. "Damn, you're moody."
All of the crazy fangirls stared at them, wide-eyed, and began violently clapping.
"OMG! That was awesome!" one girl cheered. "You act just like the real thing!"
They began jumping up and down with excitement. "You guys are sooo awesome! That was perfect performance, Levi!"
They all crowded Levi, huggling him. "You're soooo awesome! You should join an acting career and make an SnK live action MOVIE! You're perfect! You should act in the Attack on Titan panel later!"
Eren slowly stood back up, sending the girls confused glances. "What is this 'panel'?" he asked, tilting his head. The girls turned to him, grinning widely.
"It's this thing where cosplayers go to act like the characters and do stuff! They roleplay, answer questions as the character, and other cool stuff!" one answered excitedly. "You guys should sign up as the Eren and Levi for the panel!"
Levi made a strange sound as all the girls began to seemingly attack him. He was heavily disliking the boobs in his face, that was for sure. He didn't lean that way. Anyway, as they brought up a new activity, he gave a sigh, and began to move away slightly, an irritated look on his face.
However, he did decide that if he was going to be stuck here... why not have some fun? "Fine. Eren, why don't we give it a shot," he snorted, waving his hands around nonchalantly, before narrowing his eyes at the fangirls, "you would have to lead us there, however."
This was gonna be fun.
The fangirls squealed and all grabbed Eren and Levi by the arms, dragging them away towards the panel signup thing.
"Okay, now go talk to the guy and sign up for the thingy!" one girl instructed, grinning and bouncing around. "This is gonna be awesome!"
Levi just watched as Eren gave a dejected sigh and trudged over to a guy with a bunch of sign-up papers.
"Me and my friend wanna sign up for the Shinge-no-whatchamacallit thing," he stated. The man looked up, handing him two signup sheets. "Mkay, sign those," he stated, and Eren began signing all of the little things on the paper, while also handing one to Levi.
The fangirls just continued squealing and being hyper.
"Tch, fine," Levi huffed, placing the paper down and grabbing one of the pencils from a small cup. Eyeing the strange thing warily, he quickly ignored it before signing the paper. Hopefully nobody would notice that his signature was exactly the same, even. Not to mention he was using his real name. Wow, this was a lot more complicated than he though.
Deciding to keep it simple, he only signed his first name on the papers given, before handing them to the man somewhat violently before placing the pencil back, "When does this crap start?"
The man blinked at the attitude of the little man. "Ha, you're pretty in-character, aren't ya?" he chuckled, taking back the papers. "It starts in about an hour, at 5:00 PM. Until then, you guys can go around and do whatever ya want."
Eren then grabbed Levi by the arm, desperate to escape the fangirls. "Alright, we'll be back at 5, later!" he shouted, before darting off and dragging Levi with him. When they were a safe distance away, he finally let go and stopped running, panting for a moment.
"Jeez, those girls are crazy," he huffed, crossing his arms. "Ey, Levi, by the way... are you hungry? I am, I want food. Levi, can we go find somewhere to get food?"
Levi gave a snort as Eren pulled him away, having to walk a bit fast in order to keep up, "And how exactly do you plan on getting food with no money? Smart aleck, Jesus Christ. Did you not think about that?" he exclaimed, pulling away from Eren and tossing his hands up into the air.
"Unless we find some place giving away free food, I doubt we'll find anything. Though... I am a bit curious to see what new items they may have..." he mumbled, looking around.
Eren then noticed something in his pocket, and reached down... and discovered he had a wierd pocket-like brown thingy, with a bunch of green paper in it, which, apparently was 2,000 dollars.
"How convenient," he remarked. "Whelp, whatever teleported us here was nice enough to give us money."
He sent Levi a smug look, smirking. "Now can we go get food?"
Levi crossed his arms and gave a small huff, "Fine, fine. I don't know what food is like here, though. So don't whine if you can't find anything you like. I doubt they have the same food back at home."
Eren gave a grin and dragged Levi around the place, looking for anywhere that might be selling food. They soon came to an anime cafe place with a bunch of cosplayers as the waiters/waitresses.
Eren dragged Levi to this place, and they were soon seated at a table.
Eren ordered sushi, while Levi ordered a burger.
Levi sat down at the table across from Eren, staring down at the burger he had ordered. It was simple; a double cheeseburger with added bacon. It looked... strange. Finally taking it into both his hands, he lifted it to his mouth and bit down, a wave of flavors washing over him that made him almost drop the burger.
"W-what is this madness," he whispered to himself, before continuing to ravenously eat the burger, before turning to the fries and doing the same. This was probably the best thing he had ever eaten, hands down.
Eren stared down at the sushi he had ordered, which was known as a "Volcano Roll", a non-spicy variation of it, anyway.
It looked strange, and smelled strange, too. He hesitantly grabbed a pair of chopsticks, the child kind that were simple to use, and picked up a piece of the sushi, plopping it into his mouth. His eyes immediantly went wide, as if he had just tasted a bite of heaven itself.
"This.. this is heaven..." Eren stuttered, before very quickly and ravenously eating all of the little bits of sushi except for one, which he then picked up and shoved into Levi's mouth.
"This is heaven, Levi~! Try it!" he chirped as he did so, a stupid grin on his face.
Levi had just finished his food with Eren shoved the sushi into his mouth, and he began coughing somewhat, not even able to enjoy the taste as he swallowed the sushi with little notice, "What the hell was that for?!" he coughed, lifting up the glass of water to his lips and taking a sip to subside the coughing.
Though, he had to admit that Eren's determination to make him try it was a bit adorable... At that he spit the water back out and continued choking. What the hell was he thinking?!
Eren just continued sitting there with a big, stupid grin on his face. "Wasn't it good, Corporal~?" he chirped, oblivious to the fact Levi was pissed off. "Sushi is like, the best food ever!"
"I-I guess it was good, but you seriously s-shouldn't just shove something down my throat like that," Levi croaked, lifting up his hands and holding his throat somewhat, tears in the corner of his eyes from having just coughed up a storm, "Brat," he grumbled.
Eren puffed out his lower lip, pouting and giving the Corporal the puppy eyes. "But.. But... it was good..." he whined. "I was trying to be nice."
Snickering slightly, Levi rose from the table and leaned across, leaving his face hovering right in front of his, and making sure to tease him a tad by keeping himself away from his lips by just a few inches, keeping his own parted slightly so that he was sure he was sharing breath with Eren.
"I know you were trying to be nice, brat. You just don't seem to think about the right way of doing things," he mumbled, before smirking slightly and landing back in his seat, "Anyway, we should pay and get out of here. The panel is expecting us soon."
Eren blinked in confusion, heat rising into his cheeks as the Corporal leaned in that close. "Erm..." he stuttered, unable to find words until Levi pulled away. "Er... right.. yeaaah, okay.."
He then stood, paying the cafe people and walking out with Levi, heading towards the panel room.
Levi was confused by the audience once they entered the panel room. He was a bit worried about all the fangirls, to be honest, as he didn't really want boob all over his face again. That was just... gross, "Eren, if they ask you to turn into a titan. Do. Not. Do. It," he snarled under his breath, tugging on his sleeve as he glanced around warily.
If he wasn't careful this could be the death of him.
Eren rolled his eyes and waved his hand dismissively, making his way up to the panel stage thing, along with cosplayers of Mikasa and Armin.
"So uh, what're we supposed to do here?" he asked absentmindedly, as a random dude showed up and came to a microphone.
"Okay, people! Welcome to the Shingeki no Kyojin panel! The characters are here, and ready to speak with the audience and answer any random questions you throw at them!" he announced before leaving. Eren just stared at the audience, dumbfounded.
Then some random dude spoke up, a question which had Eren and Levi both red in the face.
"Hey Levi and Eren, are you two gay for eachother?"
A twisted expression crossed Levi's face, and he placed his hands on his hips, "For your information, I am gay in general. Whether it's for Eren, Erwin, Jean, or whoever else, you will never know," he snapped, glaring at the man, "In no way am I interested in balls of fat on a vagina owner's chest. Anymore questions?" he snorted, frowning heavily.
Everyone in the crowd, and even Eren, immediately burst out laughing, many falling over in their chairs.
"I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU JUST SAID THAT, LEVI!" Eren cackled, clutching his chest as he laughed because he was laughing so hard it hurt his lungs.
After a few seconds, another question piped up. "Hey Levi, have you ever had wet dreams about Eren?"
Levi's face instantly flushed at that question, and he glared at that person, "Are these questions seriously the only type of questions you people have?" Levi snapped, before raising his hands in defeat, "Hell, I did sign up for this..." he grumbled, glancing at Eren warily before facing the crowd.
"Yes. That is the only answer I shall be giving to you disgusting people. I had to clean that mess afterwards, ick," he said, frowning slightly at the remembrance of that mess.
Eren clasped his hand over his mouth, gawking, eyes going wide.
"C-Corporal!" he stuttered, utterly bewildered and not even knowing what the hell to say. Everyone else in the entire room were laughing their asses off, including the Armin and Mikasa cosplayers.
"I just- I can't- What?!" Eren continued stuttering in pure confusion and bewilderment, unable to form a coherent sentence. "I don't even.. What.."
Then another question came... from one of the fangirls from earlier. "HEY LEVI, WILL YOU MARRY ME?!"
Levi couldn't help but cast a smirk towards Eren, and teasingly flip his hair away from his face, it was when the question from the fangirl rose above the crowd the Levi turned away and frowned again, staring the fangirl in the eye and keeping a straight face, "I'm not interested in chest planets nor am I interested in satan sponges. Please, I've already said this," he snorted, waving his hand around nonchalantly before glancing at Eren.
"You got anymore questions?"
Everyone laughed even harder at Levi's words, while the fangirl teared up and ran off crying.
Eren continued staring at Levi, eye twitching, and suddenly grabbed his arm. "Okay, time to go, come on, Levi!" he huffed, rushing off and dragging Levi with him. "We're leaving this hellhole."
"Aw, c'mon Eren! I was actually having fun," the older man snickered, stumbling after Eren as he dragged the shorter man along, "I wouldn't mind doing that again... though, they need to ask more serious questions next time. Jesus Christ, how many times do I need to explain that I'm not interested in chest ass or vaginazilla's? Like, seriously?" he snorted, nearly falling over at one point before standing up again.
He was completely avoiding what he had said about one of the two first questions, and he wasn't sure he would say anything unless it was brought up.
Eren was still red in the face and refused to glance at the Corporal, and harshly yanked him through the building and out the doors.
"I cannot believe your answer to the second question!" the younger man huffed, still bewildered. "Like, what the hell, Levi?! Were you being serious?!"
Tugging on Eren's arm so that he would slow down at least a bit, he quickly moved so that he was standing in front of the man, "I was being serious," he shrugged, acting like it was no big deal, before allowing a smirk to cross his face, "What? Do you have some sort of issue with that?" he snickered, not even caring what his reaction would be.
He wasn't afraid to admit it, not at all.
Eren just gawked at the little man, face still beet red. "You... what?!" he exclaimed, taking a step back. "You seriously... My god, Levi! What the hell?!"
He turned his back, resting his hands against the back of his head in embarrassment. "I cannot believe you seriously have those sorts of dreams about me.."
"So what? It's a natural thing with men, really. Y-You just happened to be the center of attention in one of them, no big deal," in all reality, it was more like all of them. He couldn't believe he was stupid enough to try and convince himself he didn't like Eren. Yea, of course he did. He couldn't believe getting sucked into an alternate dimension had to make him realize that.
Once again forcing himself to act like it was nothing, he shrugged, though he moved absentmindedly closer towards the man, as if he was trying to show for a fact that Eren belonged to him. When, in reality, no, no he didn't. He was just being a stubborn brat himself and thinking that. If Eren belonged to him... No, he didn't want to think of that at the moment.
"We need to leave the city and find some place to stay."
Eren continued to stare at Levi, still with a confused and baffled look on his face.
He decided to get straight to the point. "Levi... do you actually like me?"
Levi fell silent for a moment before straightening his posture and moving so that he was closer to the man, glaring up at him with a deadpan expression. He wasn't gonna lie, no way. Shrugging nonchalantly, he lifted up a hand and placed it on Eren's chest, "I do, Eren. Not gonna lie," he said, a smirk crossing his lips as he finally moved backwards.
"Don't be all egotistical about it though, brat. Just because humanity's strongest is in love with you doesn't mean you can go around flaunting about it," he snorted, before realizing his use of words and shutting his mouth.
Eren's eyes were wide open, face red as a tomato. "Erm... Well, I, uh... what just happened..." he stuttered, confused, bewildered, and baffled. "I cannot believe that you..."
He forced himself to calm down after a moment, trying to forget the extremely awkward moment between him and the Corporal, and finally just lightly shook his head and grabbed Levi's arm, dragging him off through the streets aimlessly.
Deciding that he wasn't just going to let the conversation slide away so easily, after while of being dragged down the street, Levi moved so that he was tugging on Eren's arm, and a smirk played across his lips, "I love you, Jaeger. What do you think of that?" he said, his smirk only growing as he searched for an exit out of this town.
Eren once again flushed red, not knowing how to respond. He continued walking, not bothering to respond except for quiet muttering. After a while, they ended up by a hotel.
"C'mon, Corporal, let's get a room," Eren stated, dragging Levi into the hotel, paying for a room, and going into it. He then sat down on one of the beds and faced away from Levi, face still red.
Once he was dragged into the room, Levi flopped down on the next bed over and began pulling off his shoes while looking around warily, "Well... this is all new," he snorted, placing his shoes neatly beside his bedside and beginning to pull off his clothes until he was only in a tank top and boxers, not giving a crap about Eren being in the room.
Eren just nodded, still looking away from the Corporal. Though, when he suddenly heard the shuffling of clothes, he glanced over his shoulder, immediately becoming red once again.
"Honestly, Levi," he huffed, sweatdropping. "Seriously, dude..."
"What? I'm not gonna strip all the way," he snorted, scooting father up onto the bed, and reaching over towards the nightstand, grabbing what he didn't know was a remote and pressing the power button at the top. At the sound of the TV turning on at the foot of the beds, he gave a yelp, and he instantly moved towards the 'magic box', touching the screen rather curiously.
"What the hell?"
Eren stared at it, titlting his head in confusion... and then suddenly the Attack on Titan themesong blared, and he stared at the screen, gawking, as an episode of Attack on Titan played on the TV.
"...What the..."
Levi didn't bother trying to change anything, instead he lay back on the bed and watched what seemed to be the exact interpretation of events from a few years ago. He was quite amused by his own actions, "Am I really that much of an ass?"
Eren just nodded, a smirk on his face. "Yep," he stated plainly, slowly scooting closer to Levi.
Levi frowned slightly. He knew he was a jerk, but, he didn't really know that he was that much of a jerk. Wow, that was frightening. And now he could definitely see the height difference in everyone as well. Glancing at Eren with a frown, he quickly looked back towards the box and continued watching, slowly sinking into the mattress and continuing to stare at the moving screen, "Do you know what this thing is called? The image projector?"
Eren shrugged, and winced as the scene of Levi beating him up showed on the TV. "Ouch, that was a painful memory," he hissed, staring at the TV. "And no, Levi, I don't know what it's called."
"You gotta admit, that was a flawless kick, though," the man snorted, a smirk crossing his features, "We'll get used to this world at some point in time, that's for sure," he murmured turning to glance at the other man with a somewhat tired expression as he moved to snuggle underneath the covers, pulling them over himself.
Eren rolled his eyes and also got under the covers... in the same bed as Levi. He sent the smaller man a light smirk as he snuggled up beside him.
"Well, since you admitted you like me, I suppose you wouldn't mind me sleeping next to you, eh~?" he teased, sticking his tongue out playfully.
As soon as Eren snuggled into him, Levi's face began to heat up a considerable amount, and he frowned, before he moved so that he was facing the man entirely other than just laying on his back. Upon doing so, he was really only inches away from Eren's mouth, and his eyes lingered there for a bit, and he parted his own lips to say something, but never did. He wanted to kiss Eren, but he wasn't sure if he would be allowed.
"I guess that's fine, then," he huffed, somewhat weakly.
Eren gave the smaller man a smirk, yawning and snuggling up even closer to him, wrapping his arms around the smaller man and using him as a teddy bear.
"Ya know, Levi," he chuckled after a moment. "I think I like you, too."
"Don't let this get to your head, brat," he muttered tiredly, his words not exactly the most serious as he took advantage of the situation and snuggled back into Eren.
"Let's hope we can get home someday."
Eren gave a light smile, an expression he didn't usually give, and snuggled up to the Corporal. "Yeah, I'd hope so," he responded, slowly falling asleep.
