okay I will be moving so if you want me to follow back like this post! I will be following back my writing partners <3

I'm debating moving to a new blog to start fresh since I can't seem to get my bearings atm. I know it's such a pain since I have a lot of stuff here, and I am happy to remake certain plots on my new blog, or respond on my other one to a few threads. and of course inboxes I have sent are still valid just @ me again, but still debating. just to keep things clean.

❝ huh? how come? ❞ gabi's attention is quick, turning on her heel to look up at reiner with a much softer expression then she had currently worn. the flaunted arrogance that came with the girl's fierce duty falls into an innocence that was her youth. because it's him. and all her fondness shines through. even if she briefly frowns in confusion, tilting her head as curiosity seeps into confusion. why did she have to close her eyes?

then, there's giddiness. bright eyes emphasise the sudden excitement that flows through her.

❝ oo, is it a gift? did you get me something? ❞ she leans to the side to peak, and her grin only grows wider. ❝ what is it? show me! ❞ reiner's words were, ultimately, ignored, or rather, forgotten, in gabi's moment of eagerness.

I forget about my underground mikasa verse even though it's one of my favourites. my other muses influence that (looking at kenny and farlan).

┊ ┊⋆ ┊ . 𝐼𝒻 𝒴𝑜𝓊 𝐿𝑜𝓈𝑒, 𝒴𝑜𝓊 𝒟𝒾𝑒 ◞ 𝖒𝖊𝖒𝖊 . unprompted ˚ ༘♡ ⋆｡˚ @knightinsourarmor ⤸ ❝ Shut up! ❞ Tears overflowed, as if a child throwing a fit. The future she dreamed of, was stolen from Kana, by her hands. Jealousy burned her heart, fear of failure (of rejection) making her knees weak. No matter how she screamed and cried, none would listen. She should have been on the top ten as well. She should gain citizenship for Wall Sina. But none showed pity, not even the one before her, Mikasa. But Kana didn't need pity. Fists clenched tight, the urge to come at her strong, but she held back. If there was one person she'd admit to be superior than her, was Mikasa. ❝ Why you, of all people, chose the Survey Corps? ❞ Why did she look down on everything Kana ever wished for?

❝ there was never any choice. ❞ mikasa was human (wasn't she still), but that cold which could consume her very words upheld the cruel characterisation still sustained by other trainees. a monster. a true warrior. she could see kana's situation clearly, could even understand that frustration she must feel burning so deep that tears overwhelmed her. it wasn't fair. right? well, that was too damn bad.

❝ titans stole any choice we had five years ago. If you want sympathy from me, don't waste your breath. ❞ they all wanted to run. to cower in fear and hope someone else did their dirty work. mikasa wouldn't of minded a peaceful life. but that wasn't the reality of their world. everything she held dear was taken away, one after another, and it never seemed to end. always slipping through her grasp. always so cold.

but her scarf kept her warm. it was something she could call home (...) because it had kept her safe back then. kept the cold from taking her. gave her a spark that was all but snuffed out. why did she chose the Survey Corp? because that's where eren had decided to go, and there was no changing his mind. that too was never an option. all she wanted was to keep her family safe. to keep what was left safe. to still have something that meant anything to her ... safe.

the eyes that stare back at kana are void and hollow. a dark abyss that held nothing; and still, lacked no mercy. for the things she's seen, for all the things she's done and was willing to do.

❝ I joined because the only way to live in this world is to fight. fight to win. ❞

ah, yes, levi had such an elegant way of speaking. in response to the slight at his indoor smoking habits, zeke can only raise his arms (lazily) in defeat -- so wounded. it's not like he's intentionally trying to break the rules so to speak. he just hadn't intended to get caught; why not give him a break? ❝ alright, alright. since you're the one insisting, I guess I don't have much choice, do I? ❞ and still, he doesn't put it out just yet. he just needed a little longer. in any case, levi should be proud of those kids; zeke had a feeling they'd be more influenced by levi's tutorage, probably would reprimand him just as much for the habit. well ... who's to say.

truthfully, he'd just been waiting for levi to take his leave; but as should be expected, he doesn't. that loud thud close by is all he needs to hear for expression to sullen, for zeke to sigh, albeit dramatically, and sink his shoulders. oh (...) he wasn't leaving. so zeke chances another draw, and shifts his posture to face levi -- hey, was this intimidation? or, is that just the usual aura he kept around?

❝ oh, are you keeping me company now? I didn't think you cared. ❞ his teasing is void, as hollow as the very notion itself. well, if this was a game of chicken, he'd play. a bit of talking here and there might just give him a bit more time. ah, but ... he supposed the cigarette had to go either way. so he puts it out on the window sill and shoves it into his pocket.

❝ or, did you just scare off the other teachers? no one else to sit with? you know levi, you can just ask if you want to hang out. ❞ he'd been warned already; but sorry eren, he had his own way he liked to deal with levi, and it's really his own fault for joining him in the lounge room.

Brother to one of his students, his co-worker, a man interesting enough he'd normally be able to hold a conversation with. Levi's hatred towards Zeke seemed to be unreasonable. Raised on the streets, one learns to survive by their intuition alone. Even if many years had passed since he had to fight for his survival, his body had its own memory, reacting to what his logic failed to explain — his stomach would twist and turn at the sight of the other. And his gut instinct had almost never betrayed him so far.

Prying eyes caught Zeke walking in, long before Levi chose to make his presence known. Silently he watched him for some time, before his hostile aura overflowed.

❝ Don't you know smoking indoors is forbidden? That shitty smell reached the hallway. ❞ Overdramatic. He only happened to have a sharp nose. Hypocritical. He wouldn't have made a comment if it was anyone else smoking. ❝ Put this thing out. ❞ Cold, unsociable, bad-tempered. He was popular for many things, but crossing boundaries without permission wasn't one of them. Zeke would make the exception.

❝ . . . And make sure no student sees you. Wouldn't want any of them to pick up such a disgusting habit. ❞ He took seat in the chair closest to the other, making a loud thud as he did. Intimidating was his presence without putting much effort. A natural he was, at driving people away. Legs crossed, holding a book at hand, he pretended to shift his attention elsewhere.

What awaited the other, was unknown. And maybe, that uncertainty was enough of a punishment.

[worldhell-archiving]

you don't need to say anything. mikasa's lips tighten. was it shame? she doesn't regret what happened (...) she can't. but she knows the pain of loss. she's known that for a very long time -- maybe it's all she's ever known. so desperate to hold onto what still remained, she'd take that by any means necessary. they'd lost many soldiers that fight. too many. but (...) those she held dear still remained, didn't they? that couldn't be said for her commander.

there's no comfort mikasa can give her. she finds that a rather painful reminder. she's not so completely lost in her own need to keep her family safe that she tosses aside others. because those of the survey corps had to deal with that pain many times over. there wasn't room left in her heart to find a place for everyone. she can't protect that many people. but, hange (...)

❝ I understand. ❞ uncomfortably, she holds onto the sleeve of her jacket. moblit. yeah, he was the one who was always around hange. they must have been close. another solider gone in the height of battle. because hange had lost people too. she remembers her warm embrace, the pain in her tone that had broken mikasa's resolve; this cruel world they lived in haunted them all.

❝ yeah ... it never feels like they're really gone. not at first. ❞ but mikasa rarely opens up, so her words are left vague. but she knows. how when carla used to call for her, she'd almost hear her mothers voice. always expecting to see her. but the sinking reality would hit hard. now they were both gone.

❝ I'm sorry. ❞ because she can feel remorse for the fallen. she can hold guilt for the rest of the soldiers they couldn't save. maybe if mikasa had cut bertholdt's head off when she had the chance, he'd never of had the opportunity to transform. maybe a lot of things would have ended differently (...) ❝ ...about moblit. I know you lost a lot of people. ❞

Things hadn't stopped since Shiganshina. Not for her anyway. The reports that had to be written and read, the meetings with all kinds of people, the confinement of Mikasa and Eren, the justification of letting them out ten days early. Talking to the loved ones of the fallen. All while everyone expected her to pick up where Erwin left, to have a plan or at least a next step.

The wall was reclaimed but the loss was too high. Every night she dreamed. Every night she was reminded how she had the armoured titan by the blade and let him escape.

It had only been two weeks but it felt a life time. "You don't need to say anything" Hanji spoke long fingers gathering up paperwork from the now empty table. Her words weren't cold, she knew what had been unsaid. "I can't say I wouldn't have done the same at your age" she had calmed over the years, accustomed to the loss, loyal to those she trusts. If she had control of the serum, this story would have had a different end for her own selfish reasons, but she trusted Erwin and Levi.

"I have things I have to work through" she started, a crack in her act, "I keep expecting to turn around and see Moblit, instead, it seems Jean has taken his space" she was thankful to Jean for keeping her on time, and in the evenings Levi would make an appearance to make sure she had eaten.

[worldhell-archiving]

she watches him silently for a few seconds; surprise only evident in the faintest discomposure, the slight parting of her lips. arms wrapped securely around her knees loosen. no funny business -- it ... wasn't like that. she knows. maybe, it was armin who she'd last done this with. many years ago. it was just a surprise. in times like this, she felt rather small. ❝ yeah, okay. ❞ unsure, and still, it wasn't uncomfortable. different, but familiar. she finally shuffles closer, laying down beside jean (was it okay to rest on his arm? that might be cramped for him) and staring at the open sky for a few moments, before turning her head to look at him.

❝ I wasn't, I just heard you struggling so I ... ❞ well, that wasn't entirely right. lips purse together in thought. ❝ it wasn't your fault. I just prefer to be alert when sleeping outside. ❞ a light sleeper, because she didn't like to be taken by surprise. but, more importantly ... ❝ are you sure you're okay? I get it. with everything we've been through, I know it can be hard. ❞

He nodded once at her words, at least there was that, a small amount of privacy to the night At least he knew Mikasa wouldn't be gossiping about it. He sat up in the sleeping bag, letting the night air caress his face, the sweat sticking to his hair. Jean watched as she perched on the edge of the bed.

His shoulders shrugged, watched as she wrapped her arms around her legs, how someone so powerful couple curl up so small amazed him. "It's nothing new" he whispered but concern now on her as his heart slowed back to a normal rhythm, "Come here? Lay with me for a minute" he offered, shifting back down, laying on his back.

"No funny business I swear, we can just talk for a bit comfortably" he chuckled softly, arm out for her to rest on, "How come you're awake?".

[worldhell-archiving]

@shougancid ⋰ continued.

well, she could still give him a good amount of grief, so she mustn't of hit her head too hard. honestly that comes as a relief. truly. porco hadn't realised how tense his body had become, the genuine panic that first consumed him when he saw her just lying there -- it clenched at a heartened heart desensitized by the cruelty of war. but warrior candidates, or, no, eldians, they had to stick together, right? there's always enough room left for them.

❝ okay- alright! I get it. ❞ almost by instinct does he go to hit her hand just as she had, but is quick to stop. instead, he just pulls back from her reach. she's still hurt (...) despite what she says.

still porco remains crouched by her side. he could probably be more gentle next time. guess he's still getting used to being human again. just the set backs of being in titan form for too long - well, in any case. ❝ was just making sure you weren't dead. ❞ because right now, her eyes still seemed vacant. ❝ don't start putting on a brave face, you're lucky you're still talking. can you stand? ❞

character development

[worldhell-archiving]

Happy new year ! It's now me day of birth and I sleep after much drinking but SMOOCH it's been so much fun writing here I cherish you all xx

[worldhell-archiving]

where (...) was she? the scenery is familiar, that she knows all too well. mikasa stood in the vast field of blooming flowers too vibrant for reality, and just beyond it, was the tree. it's leaves a gentle rustle guided by a blissful breeze. the last thing she can really recall is her eyes closing against her will, but she had invited it none the less. oh. she realises. so, she really had passed on. the hands she looks down at aren't frail and withered, but soft and youthful. her long hair tied into a ponytail, it's colour as dark as she once remembered -- why. why like this? but transcended into the unknown of death was peaceful. there was no need to question it.

but such melancholy that consumes her doesn't last long. not when she looks towards the tree. looks down to it's roots, and spots something in the distance. something so familiar. something that causes her heart to skip as beat, for tired eyes to widen with a gleam.

for awhile she's frozen in place. everything that screamed in her to run towards him is too stunned to make that move. because first (...) it has to be real. she needed it to be real. to see him there again, under that tree. after so many years ... even as memories faded into oblivion, even as his face began to disappear from her mind, she never, ever, forgot about (@ourvoids).

❝ ... eren ... ? ❞ it's a whisper, she doubts it carries, but she feels her feet finally begin to move. as shock slowly starts to fizzle out, she feels those slow steps begin to pick up.

[worldhell-archiving]

❝ you know, this might be the first time I've had a real drink in five years. ❞ hannes might have laughed at the fact, but well, he'd been pretty strict with himself since that day. this time he wasn't on the job, so hell! if now wasn't an appropriate time, he didn't know when would be. ❝ I won't lie, it tastes damn good. ❞ because he hadn't visited (@theackerwitch) in awhile, had he? he weren't the type to be too disciplined after all. a man could catch a break. hell, they all probably needed one about now. ❝ been far too long, ain't it? sorry about that. guess I had a lot going on recently. ❞
