hey guys, happy holidays and a happy new year's to you. so, this is another au and regarding that review; i have honestly stopped reading the manga up before [spoilers!] sasha died so no I won't be writing anything about it onwards. Sorry, but if I'm going canon it would only be before that or canon divergent.
hope that doesn't stop you from reading my fics though!
Sometimes, Levi thinks to himself how the fuck he was able to befriend a biology major when the visual arts building is basically on the opposite end as opposed to the sciences department.
And then he remembers Hanji, and thinks 'Of course.'
Just his luck.
Because he remembers another night of playing the designated driver and Hanji being Hanji bringing a friend from one of their classes and introducing the bright and bubbly Petra Ral to the dark and emo looking Levi Ackerman, before leaving them to start an oddly but interesting conversation.
The thing with Levi is that it's hard to keep a conversation with him. Really. Usually, he would be one of those people; the ones who'd ask and answer mechanically depending on the topic. Sometimes not even more than a word, especially if he doesn't like you.
Truthfully, the only people who can start and hold an actual conversation with him would either be Hanji Zoe, his roommate and the four eyes who he's starting to think did this on purpose, and Erwin Smith, his legal guardian and the Dean of this fucking college.
But he's met Petra, and honestly that night when they first met?
He didn't even realize that they'd left Hanji behind.
It was one in the morning when they left and it was thirty minutes later when Levi's arrived at his dorm after walking Petra to hers that he had a perpetual slight upturn of his lips, the only indicator of a smile he can make.
