The trio sat in the sun, skipping health class and having a good time altogether. Sasha pulled out a gigantic iwatobi-chan bread and happily munched on it while Eren stared in confusion (what is that supposed to be anyway?) while Connie pestered her for a piece. After relentlessly pursuing some of iwatobi-chan's strawberry flesh but failing to get any, he turned to Eren. "Why did your parents want you to go to Sina anyway?" The previously poor(ish?) kid rolled his eyes. "They wanted me to 'meet new people.'"
Sasha then looked up and snorted cynically. "Oh, you'll meet new people, all right. You're a regulation kawaii." He didn't respond. Connie soon stepped in, wisely declaring that his "eyes the color of green stuff and how his smile radiated radiation" would "totally be considered kawaii." Sasha then hit him, calling her remark about being simpleminded to be completely true.
The doors to the gym started to rumble and seniors poured out the door. Sasha immediately dropped the half-eaten iwatobi-chan. "In the name of all that is holy, will you look at Erwin Smith's gym clothes?" It was Connie's turn to snort cynically. "What gym clothes?" In the middle of a soccer game stood a senior with glamorously parted blonde hair and the bushiest eyebrows known to man. Even so, he still seemed to own the fabulosity. He wasn't wearing a shirt and had a baseball cap facing the wrong way, which made him use his hands to block out the sun. The soccer game immediately stopped as the players not-so-subtly stared at him.
"Of course the Recons all have the same gym class." Hearing this, Eren spun around. "Who are the Recons?" Sasha and Connie simultaneously rolled their eyes. "They're teen royalty. If Trost was Germany Weekly, they'd always be on the cover. That one there is Erwin Smith, one of the dumbest boys you will ever meet. Connie took class with him in AP PE last year." Connie soon began to crack up. "He asked me how to spell orange. Me! IN GYM CLASS!"
A girl bounced out of the building, immediately doing cartwheels and dragged Erwin out of the crowd of bi-curious soccer players. "Come on, Erwin!" Eren immediately noticed that a numerous amount of scars ran up her arms and legs, along with the average gym uniform. "That's Hanji Zoe. She-" "-or he!" "...she sometimes crossdresses. Anyway, she's another Recon. Absolutely insane and likes to smuggle pets in the building. Don't ask."
Immediately after, her glasses toppled off, causing her to lose her balance and fall, taking Erwin with her. An average looking girl with orange hair gladly handed the glasses to Hanji, which caused her to cartwheel with twice the effort. "Petra Ral. She seems like a nice girl-Oh, I nearly had a near-death experience by being nearly stepped on by a bear that was THIIIIIIS near to me near a tree, so I must change for the better!- but underneath that orange hair-which looks so fake, by the way- lies a bitchy, overly-determined, preppy Recon." Eren took a mental note to not fuck with Connie and his crew.
A boy with a smug look on his face stepped out of the building. Eren took one glance at his hair and immediately hated him. Dickdyed. The smug boy tripped over a rock and caused the trio of juniors to wince as blood spurted out of his mouth. Petra dashed to his side with an "I've seen this before" look on her face and took him back indoors. "Auruo-" "Aluo." "Oluo?" "Aloe?" "-Auruo Bossard. He's totally snobby because his parents invented Titan Munchies, a pet food brand that doesn't taste as good as it makes out to be, by the way." Eren turned to Sasha, who replied with a shrug and a "don't ask." "He knows everyone's business. That's why his hair is so multi-colored. It's full of secrets."
Eren was about to investigate more about these "Recons" until he saw the duo turn to the left while wearing expressions of discontent. He turned to see what the big deal was and saw...nothing.
Until he looked down.
To be exact, he saw a dwarf boy with a scowl that could kill horses wearing a cravat with his gym uniform, while strangers tried to approach him and he would merely respond in a "Tch." and walk away.
"Evil takes a human form in Levi Ackerman. You might think he's your typical selfish, back-stabbing, ass-faced Ajax fucker, but in reality, he is so much more. He's the man. The main man. The others are just side characters in a movie with little character development."
Levi Ackerman...how do I begin to describe Levi Ackerman?
[Mina: Levi Ackerman is too shota to be hot, but too hot to be shota.
Thomas- He has two Fendi cravats and silver window screens.
Mylius- I hear his hair's insured for over $10,000.
Nac- He probably does car commercials. In America.
Tom- His favorite movie is...huh. That's weird. No answer for that one. Ymir, did you fill out the cue cards right?
Hannah/Franz- He once encountered a pack of greyhounds in the woods...and they ran away.
Auruo- One time, he sent me to the infirmary. It was awesome.]
"He's so fabulous. He always wins Spring Fling Heichou." "Connie, why do you even care?" "Every year, each grade has a dance called the Spring Fling. Whoever gets elected as Heichou and Gochou automatically become in charge of the activities committee. Since my mom says activities are weighed as heavily as grades are, I would say I have a reason to care." Sasha merely facepalmed. "You've truly out-dumbed-yourself."
The duo handed Eren a poorly drawn map of the cafeteria. Eren angstily rolled his head to the side, showing angsty confusion. "What is this supposed to be?"
Connie helpfully stepped in as Eren's guide, seeing how Sasha was eating a canister of lamb stew at the moment. " This is going to be your guide to Sina. It's crucial to know where you sit in the cafeteria because everyone's there.
You got your bottom feeders (Mina, Thomas, Mylius, Nac, Tom all doing homework and looking fresh and ready for death-...the death of having a lame group to eat with during lunch, that is),
your openly straights (Hannah and Franz making out, since they're the only ones at the table),
your openly gays (Krista, Ymir, Jean looking embarrassed and Marco looking satisfied, Reiner and Bertholdt in the middle of the Gays and the Populars),
the military kids (Hannes, Rico, Marlow, Anka, Gustav,and Hitch blowing bubbles in a milk carton),
the junior populars (Annie sitting lamely at the table alone, trying to force Reiner and Bertholdt back to the table),
the lame, normal kids (Armin, Mikasa, Isabel, Farlan doing average things with a hint of glamour),
the greatest people you will ever meet (This one's kind of obvious),
and the worst (Ditto.)"
The angsty teen angstily scanned the lunchroom. He had prepared to sit with the greatest people he would ever meet, but was stopped when a blonde with a small mustache and the distinct scent of Titan Munchies began to sniff him eagerly. Eren tried to back away, but he was pulled into the taller boy's grasp, who sniffed even louder.
"Oi, Mike, that's enough." Eren looked up to the voice of his savior and saw...nothing. Until he looked down at Levi Ackerman. "Mike, why are you such a neanderthal?" Mike gave a frustrated huff and replied with, "I'm only being friendly." At that moment, Hanji actually paid attention to the conversation and hissed, "Why didn't you call me last night? The science project is due in two weeks, you know."
Levi looked condescendingly...up...at Mike, yet he still managed to look threatening. "Mike, you can't just blow Hanji off and start using your nose for the wrong purposes." He looked at Eren. "Do you want to become a test subject?" As expected, he violently shook his head. "Then that settles it. Bye, Mike."
After the blowup, Eren realized this was definitely not his place. He started to walk towards Connie and Sasha until- "Wait, stop moving, brat. Why haven't I seen you before?"
Eren froze in place. Levi was now leaning towards him without leaving his seat (Teen royalty powers?) as the "side characters" looked on with interest. "Come on, brat. Sit down. I don't bite." Hanji unhelpfully jumped in, chirping "But I do!" She was paid back with a harsh slap and a "Shut up, shitty glasses." The emerald-eyed boy was about to sit down until Levi sanitized the seat with a wet wipe and offered Eren one. He was about to refuse, but Levi's face warned him not to. "I'm new. I moved here from Maria." Everyone's faces seemed to get slightly more mischievous. "So you've never been to a real prep school before? Wow. No way. No...way." Smiling nervously, Eren squeaked "Um, yes way. That's kind of what I said." Levi's creepy half-quarter-smile never seemed to leave. "Maria. That's really interesting...but you're,like, super kawaii." Eren beamed, believing that Sasha and Connie were wrong all along. "Oh, thanks." While keeping a straight face, Levi retorted with, "So you agree? You think you're super kawaii?" Eren slightly died inside.
He awkwardly fidgeted in his seat until Levi cut in, once again. For a blank slate of a boy, he sure was a conversationalist when it came to newcomers. "I love your hair. Who did it for you?" Ignoring the trap, Eren smiled and said, "This is my normal bedhead." Levi looked visibly displeased, shown when he took out lavender febreze and "discreetly" sprayed it everywhere. However, the strangely quiet ones cut in, Petra and Auruo gushing about its "state of kawaii" and (coming from Auruo) how it was "incredibly fetch." Levi, being the spirit killer that he is, decided to confront Auruo on what "fetch" really meant. The dickdyed-haired boy shrunk in his seat, claiming it was slang from Australia.
The supposedly dumb one cut in. "Wait, if you're from Maria...why aren't you a hobo?" Both Eren and Auruo were mortified, the latter screeching "Oh my god, Erwin. You can't just ask people why they're not a hobo." Levi broke up the squabble and smiled sweetly (or contorted his mouth slightly sweetly). "Could you give us some privacy for one second? I shouldn't have to ask that-you'd do it anyway."
Eren stole a guilty glance at Sasha and Connie, who were staring back at him with slightly amused and slightly afraid faces. "Oi, brat. Pay attention." Out of fear, Eren whipped his body around. "Okay, you should just know that we don't do this a lot. Me and the Recons want to invite you to have lunch with us for the whole week. Okay? Okay. See you tomorrow, don't be late, wash your hands." The Recons started to exit the table. Erwin whisper-screamed to Eren, "On Wednesday, we wear capes!"
AN: If you caught that Free! reference, then you are more than okay in my book! *winks at beta tester* Apparently, gochou is Japanese for corporal. Why is Levi ranked lower than the Spring Fling Queen/Gochou? I dunno. Just take it as canon. Until next time!
