I'm not a good person.

Not an okay person or a even a bad person, just a plain, old person.

I say what I can to save my skin and look out primarily for myself. You got to be a little selfish if you want to survive. Pretty much what every average person would do.

I make good choices and bad choices, like any other. Though if the choices that are good for me sometimes happen to be bad for others, well, boo hoo for them. I've never kicked any orphans or drowned any kitties.

In the end we're all gray aren't we? Smack dab in the middle. I just happen to be a very, very dark shade of gray and I'm perfectly content with that.

Do I believe in judgement? That someday every person will get what they deserve? That someday some mystical being in the sky will lay out all my past wrongdoings and say, hey you're a dick?

Used to. Maybe. The answer is gray just like me because, you see, I'm not actually sure what I believe in anymore.

'Cause you see I'm just a dead girl walking.

Yes, that's right. I'm supposed to be dead.

Now, hey, I'm not trying to pull that resurrection shit. I'm talking god-honest reincarnation. (By the way, sorry for taking your name in vain but if you get in a tizzy over that then you got problems.)

Like Life After Death. Like being pooped from the womb again, and remembering it. Can I say gross? There's a reason you're not supposed to remember that shit.

I don't know if there's some higher purpose or if this was a one-time fluke but, really, it doesn't matter because I'm probably going to be dead soon anyways.

Now, please, lean back and enjoy the non-refundable ride. And don't tell me you wouldn't have done what I've done in my situation.

Welcome to the world of Attack on Titan.

We can't all be heroes.


Author's Notation

Thank you for reading this very short piece! Sloppy grammar but I'm a lazy bum. What do you think?

Thoughts on the 1st person narrative, wording, humor, anything at all is welcome and appreciated!

I may be continuing this in the future but I'd like to hear feedback first on what I can improve.

I'm really on the fence if I should continue with 1st person or go the 3rd person.

Please help me decide!
