BONUS SCENE (^3^)
As you all went down to carriages to depart you look at the carriage in front of you as, what looks like, the entire 104th squadron piled in. Eren was grumbling about being dressed up as he was escorted in by Mikasa while Sasha and Connie had to pull away Jean from drooling after Mikasa. Christa and Ymir stepped in but not before Reiner had to be "such a gentlemen" to pull the door even further for Christa. Annie and Bertholdt walked in with Reiner and Armin was last. He waved to you and the others.
"Oi brats why are you going? You aren't high enough rank to be required to…lucky bastards" Levi called out.
"We know, we thought it would be fun…considering the last expedition…we could use a distraction" Armin reasoned.
"Be on your best behavior, our reputation is at stake. And you all must dance at least one slow dance with someone PREFERABLY OF THE OPPOSITE GENDER. AND NONE OF YOU ARE ALLOWED TO TOUCH THE WINE" Erwin called out after them desperately as Armin was pulled in by Eren and they rode away.
"Wait, Commander Erwin, where is your date?" You asked.
"Umm…given the situation we thought it would be best I went solo." He said nervously as you get a confused expression on your face.
"COMMANDER ERWIN IS CONSIDERED A FOX!" Hange bellowed while laughing, "HE'S JUST THERE TO LOOK PRETTY AND AVALIABLE FOR ALL THE LONELY LADIES"
You all laughed hysterically before departing the castle and, shortly after, arriving to the well-lit hall in the interior.
