Flapping Of Wings
Summary: Random bonus scenes from It Takes Two Wings To Fly, mostly from the moment Eren and Levi reunited onward. Fluff, fun, slight non graphic smut, occasional angst, short. Not in chronological order.
4. Evacuation Drills
The first day of Eren and Levi supervising the preparations for the inevitable fight against the shining centipede that had found itself a host, a new wall was being built while not too far away, the two former soldiers stood in front of a group of people so they can explain and demonstrate the procedure for evacuation when the beast comes, sooner or later. Eren, as a new, handsome face in town, drew a lot of attention but Levi was an experienced commander and was able to catch and keep everyone's attention on him for as long as he needed. The people were willing enough to listen and the first group went through the drills Levi had planned out without a hitch. The second group, not long after, was the same, everyone thankful to the two who were willing to fight for them and a bit intimidated by men who'd not only fought Titans, but had lived time and again to tell about it. And that's not even mentioning that one of them can turn into one while the other is an expert at hacking them.
The third group, however, had an idiot in their midst and Eren would have pitied the man. If he was still a naive fifteen year old kid, anyway. Now, he just scoffed at the idiot and stood back to enjoy the show. The Captain always had rather fascinating footwork.
It had all started when the idiot, a hot headed eighteen year old high on raging hormones and teenage pride, had interrupted one of Levi's explanations because he thought the whole thing was a pointless exercise. "I mean, what are you even going to do against that thing? We don't even know if you are who you're saying you are! For all we know, you're just frauds. I mean, there's no way the famous 'Humanity's Strongest' is this midget. He looks like a toddler can beat the ever loving fuck out of him! And the other one? As if he's the Devil of Paradis. Eren Yeager is dead. And turned out to be disappointingly weak, too. And you're all just going to do whatever they say? I mean-"
And then he was cut off by a boot to the face. Eren felt rather gleeful when he saw a tooth fly out of his mouth as he collapsed to the ground. 'Now you know how I feel, motherfucker. Serves you right.' He arched an eyebrow when the other people shot him startled looks. He shrugged. "The Captain doesn't tolerate bullshit."
Levi scoffed. "I have better things to do than deal with arrogant brats still wet behind the ears and smelling of their mother's milk. If your mayor hadn't asked us to stay and help, I would have probably already been on my way by now. If you want our help, you do as we say, because we don't want casualties if we can stop them." He looked down at the idiot sprawled on the ground and tsked. "One hit was enough to do him in and yet he was spewing so much shit a moment ago. And I held back."
"Not everyone can take your kicks, Captain."
"Don't brag, brat."
The rest of the evacuation drills went without a hitch.
After all, no one wanted to get acquainted with Levi Ackerman's boot.
