♟ || Arms were wrapped around Levi’s back. His posture straight, as it had always been. In all graveness, he was smiling on the inside. Of course this would be the one time he would be able to hear the discussion between Erwin and Armin.

[ The mere timbre of the voice was enough to make the blond flinch. His
        stupefied sapphire eyes swished over to peer at the source of the sound,
                                 a tinge of humiliated red coloring his face.

             it would only be sensible for Levi to reciprocate said expectations, right?) ]
